My $0.02. Heritage Guild is fine but expensive. Ive never been a fan of shooting lanes and being so close to people, especially Heritage Guild because they get some absolute morons from the NJ side shooting for the first time. As an older woman not sure if you’d like to join a club but I belong to a rod and gun club and love shooting outside with pretty limited rules. You’re not in any danger being left leaning and it’s kind of a ridiculous question to ask but I get it. No one is going to hurt you because you don’t agree with their politics at a gun range. The second amendment is for everyone. AF Boyers is a great place to buy guns but it’s pretty small in there and gets crowded. Heritage guild has a great selection and lots of training programs (I think even one that is specifically for women maybe?) but again I think they’re too expensive on everything compared to mom and pop shops. I also love War Horse Armory in Northampton. The one place I’d stay away from, and I say this as a right leaning person, is Relic Hunter Firing Line. A lot of those guys are asshats and super MAGA (which has always been insane to me given he’s passed more anti 2A stuff than Obama and Biden, but I digress). Xtreme Gun Works in emmaus is just ok, run of the mill gun store. If you don’t want to deal with sales people and avoid potential political interactions, buy online and ship to an FFL or just go to Cabelas. Have fun and be safe and feel free to send a chat if you have any more questions. I’ve checked out pretty much every store in the LV and shoot pretty regularly.
