I`ve been told that Parabellums in Avon will let a shooter rent different handguns to shoot and try out. Are there any other ranges on the Indy north, or south sides which offer the same service?
Where are you located? I have a bunch of 9mm handguns I let people shoot. Parabellums is most local to me. Just supply the ammo.I`ve been told that Parabellums in Avon will let a shooter rent different handguns to shoot and try out.

Most ranges offer some sort of rental program, although not *every* gun in their arsenal will be available. I know Tim's in Westfield and Point Blank in Carmel on the north side both offer rentals.

Parabellum is a good place, and is the only current local indoor 25-yard range which allows drawing from a holster. I'm sure the other places are ok too, and I've rented firearms at all of them except Tim's. I just wanted to put in a plug for a good range.
Parabellum also has periodic $50 9mm smorgasboard events, where you have the opportunity to try a dozen or so different 9mm handguns for one $50 fee. That's a good deal, since by the time you pay range time, rental fee, and 2 boxes of 9mm ammo, that's about the amount you'd pay for renting one gun, anyway (and I do not believe you can really evaluate a gun in 50 shots, personal opinion of course).
Parabellum is in Avon.

Hope you noticed this. This is exactly what makes this forum so outstanding. Thanks DV, my hat is off to you!!!
I agree, but its better than nothing. It IS possible however to rule OUT a gun in a few shots. Ive fired a few that within a mag or 2 I knew it wasnt for me.
Have you ever tried the Pearce finger groove insert?I agree, but its better than nothing. It IS possible however to rule OUT a gun in a few shots. Ive fired a few that within a mag or 2 I knew it wasnt for me.
Case in point, I swapped from hogue overmolds to thin VZs on my 1911. I immediately could tell a difference due to the grip thickness. In 5 mags I knew it was absolutely time to switch back and sell the grips as my performance with the gun was night and day.
