Can anybody elaborate a bit more on their "Range Safety Evaluation"? Is this a set of drills you have to perform or what? I still consider myself a new shooter and while nobody has ever said anything negative about my gun handling and safety skills, I'm not the most comfortable person when it comes to submitting myself for evaluation on anything shooting related. Maybe I'm too self-conscious.

I'm trying to decide between either a yearly membership at Reds or trying to join the ARC. Reds is more expensive, but ARC doesn't seem all that inviting. You have to attend a class they offer once a month, pass a "Range Safety Evaluation", submit either your CHL or a background check from DPS, pay them, and then about two weeks later, people (most of whom you probably didn't meet) vote on if they should let you in.... I've dealt with government agencies that require less paperwork.

My understanding is $14/hr or $400/yr. This seems high to me since the range I am at now is only $250/yr. I understand indoor ranges are higher but wow.

The short and long of it is that I'm moving closer to Austin in a couple months and Red's Indoor is really convenient to my new home. Just wondering if it's worth that price, or if there's a better option around.

Hey guys,

How much is a membership at Red's Indoor on the north side of Austin, and what sort of experiences have you guys had there? If I remember right, it's like $400/yr, which seems stupid expensive to me. What's the service like?
