I avoid pop guns and dons guns. They are the rudest/crappiest ranges in town (in that order)
I'm glad it isn't just me that has had a bad experience in Pops Guns. I went in there one day with a pocket full of cash looking for 10mm ammo in stock and the older guy behind the counter was as rude as anyone could possibly be. It's close to where I live but I'll never spend a penny in that place after that.
Oh yeah... We have had similar interactions with said employee...

Your choice, everyone seems to have their opinions, and of course you all know what they are like, I have a POPS indoor membership and my wife and I use their range twice a month. I have not had the experience others have had over the years, we have been there and while I have not been to the other ranges mentioned, I do notice POPS is usualy busy, so people do go there. Give them all a try I say, pick the one you like best. Better yet, drop by on a thursday afternoon, around 1:30 and be my guest. You bring your gun(s) and ammo (no steel or aluminum cases), and for only $5 you can use my lane and they provide you a target. You can rent different firearms there too.
Again, you asked for info on ranges on the east side of Indy, plenty to choose from.
Have a nice day, and let us know how it go's.
I've been to I've been to Tims 4 times. I live in Fishers and it is a little closer than BGF - but not much. I went through their safety video, 3 pieces of CYA paperwork every trip, and put up with the attitude three times. The 4th time I again went through the paperwork and thought I was ready to start poking holes in paper, picked up my range bag when the guy said "i need to see your ammo." Never having been asked that before at a range, I asked "Why?" He said "I need to see your ammo". I asked "Why?" He said" I need to see your ammo !!." I asked for my drivers license back and spent my money that day - and probably in the future - at BGF! I'm old and don't suffer fools gladly. Money talks and mine walked!
