Good to know
Can a convicted felon shoot at a commercial gun range?
Federal law under 18 U.S.C. 922(g) strictly prohibits convicted felons from possessing or handling firearms and ammunition. Attempting to rent or shoot a firearm at a commercial range as a felon is a federal offense punishable by up to 10 years in prison. Some locations allow access to non-firearm archery or airgun lanes if state law permits, but standard gun lanes remain restricted.
How much do gun range rentals and lane fees cost?
Lane rentals typically cost $15 to $30 per hour per person. Firearm rentals run $10 to $25 per gun, and ranges require shooters to buy range-approved ammunition on-site, which costs $15 to $35 per box depending on caliber. Expect total costs of $45 to $80 per person for an hour-long session including ammo and safety gear.
What eye and ear protection is required at a shooting range?
Ranges enforce mandatory eye protection with an ANSI Z87.1 impact rating and ear protection rated at 22+ Noise Reduction Rating (NRR). You can bring your own protective gear or rent earmuffs and safety glasses at the counter for $3 to $5. Standard prescription glasses generally do not meet safety requirements unless worn with wrap-around side shields or over-spec safety goggles.
Can a felon go to a gun range?
Under federal law and state regulations in Iowa, convicted felons are generally prohibited from possessing or handling firearms and ammunition.

How much is a concealed weapons permit?
