It came up in another thread, but I didn't want to thread Jack an Intro .
How much does it typically cost to typically rent an AR type rifle at commercial , open to public ranges ?
I'm use to handgun rentals being neighborhood of $5 for specific gun, or neighborhood of $10 for exchange privledeges for various handguns. . With mandatory use of tbeir ammo ( at retail list price) in rental guns, the ranges make a decent $ with only nominal rental fee.
Ok rifles as rule of thumb cost more , but I've seen top dollar pistols such as H&K and classic SIGs as rental fleet, and they overlap into price range of AR .
Ok, I could see rental rifles getting mag dumps, so accelerated throat wear. But even at that an AR will have modrate routine maintence requirements and favorable usable lifespan compared to rental pistols.
So is there a legit business justification to charge 5x the rental fee for an AR ?
