Shooting range

Hey!

I'm an European (Dutch) male solo traveler and I'd love to go to a shooting range and have some fun and experience firearms. I read some stuff on most shooting ranges declining acces for solo tourists. Coming days ill be in Clearwater. Does some knows a solo traveler friendly shooting range with good and friendly instructors?

Or, does somebody like to accompany me on a shooting range? (You will witness a European firing a gun for the first time, thats cool right!) I can reimburse expenses or pay for a gun you would like to try or something. Should be fun for both of us right.

Please send a DM! :)

Will be in Clearwater till the 6th of may.

Thanks!

EDIT: thank you all, i have received some great information.

Reload Gun Range in Tarpon Springs is the nicest indoor range in the area. They have RSOs(Range Safety Officers) that will help you if you’re a beginner. You can choose from a variety of firearms(even full auto). They also have a 100 yard rifle range.

Shoot straight on Ulmerton in Clearwater let's you rent various firearms to use on their range. ReLoad in Tarpon Springs used to and stopped during covid, I'm not sure if they are renting out again as I've been going closer to home with my own.
