Evan's is my go to range. Staff has always been very friendly and helpful, the check-in and waiver process is smooth. I have been lucky enough to get a lane as a walk in each time I have gone, but they only have 8 public ... so calling or reserving might be advisable.

Tactical side is in other words members only, 8 lanes as well. But when it’s heavy with “tourists” they will add them to the Members/Tactical side I presume since non members is where they make a lot of there revenue. One of there onsite gunsmith, Robert, such a knowledgeable dude and is down for any project you have in mind. Can be a one stop shop for most things but wish that place was bigger!
Edit:
Also my biggest reason for only going there for indoor range is because they allow rapid fire IF you’re hitting the target! Not sure on public side but member side mostly everyone is well versed in shooting etiquette so don’t have to worry about getting those “oh
” moments. They aren’t babysitting the members so it feels very nice just do your thing and won’t really police your firearms unless your LEO so they know why you got the nice stuff. Not sure if they still have some rentals with normal capacity mags so I got a chance to mag dump an XC with a 17rds felt like America…

Been a member on and off over the years. The employees are friendly but they are too small for their traffic. Tactical/member side of often being rented out by LE so the waits can get a little lengthy sometimes.

I worked there for 5-6 years after Even passed helping out Kelly. Peter took over and wiped the slate clean. Pretty much everybody was dismissed and the range rats mostly left. the culture has changed but Peter has done a fantastic job IMO. It was one thing and now it’s a different thing and it is a fantastic range. I do miss the old Evan’s but time marches on.

I can echo the experiences of others, cool people but very cramped. I went a single time because we were in Orange County and enjoyed it. Would recommend.

I dropped in there a few weeks back. Really laid back and friendly, but it’s cramped and the ventilation was really bad. Not usually something I’m aware of but it was like smoking three packs without the benefits of looking cool you get from cigarettes.
