Not sure what part of SOMD you are in, but there are a few down in SOMD. I heard Myrtle Grove is being shut down for four months, so there goes that idea.
As far as a private range ST. Charles Sportemens Club is down that way. Saint Charles Sportsman's Club
Someone mentioned Sanners Lake. Other than those I have no clue. MD has a shortage of ranges state wide.

MD Small Arms in Forrestville lets you rent handguns to shoot at the range there.
Be a good idea to go with an experienced shooter though so they can show you the basics of safe handling and aiming.

I've got a S&W .45 that I should teach BG how to shoot.. if you want to try it, I can bring it out.

Of course it's big in my hands, may be hard for you to wrap your hand(s) around it.

Dang do you not like the new ones that much? Shooting range might be a little drastic don't you think?

I guess your right, I didn't want to tell my dad but I guess he will have to go with me since he is a cop and can show me the way it goes.

They close down every winter. Oct 31 to May 1, I believe. I haven't been there in about two years. No limits on caliber- which is nice. Just be sure to read the rules as you make the treck from the parking lot to the actual range. BTW, the office there is closed on weekends, even though the range is still open and yes, you do need a permit.

If you are under 21 you cannot shoot handguns at a public or non FFL run range without your parent's written permission and you have to have an adult at least 21 years of age with you.
If you go to a range run by an FFL though and never leave the premisses when you rent the handgun it is technically legal to do without your dad's permission as I understand it, but you still have to be over 18 (fed. law). I have doubt any indoor range run by an FFL in MD would allow this though.

There are plenty of people in the Maryland shooting/hunting community which are more than willing to show a new shooter the ropes. If you would like basic instruction on safety and shooting, any of us would be willing to help out. Besides, any excuse to get to the range is a good one.

They close the range down during gun season for obvious reasons. The office is closed on weekends and they actually close usually by 2 during the week as a heads up incase you are looking to get a permit. After that you will be making the trip up to Walmart.
