I'm in CA where I don't think unsupervised public ranges exist. (actually, they do just not in my area) The ranges I go to are private club, where they charge non members a fee to shoot and member pay dues and run the range. Theft of weapons at these types of ranges in almost unheard of. Because each part of the range has its own range officer keeping every thing kosher. Then there is the guy in the booth who is keeping an eye on everything. On top of that, one entrance/exit.
As for holstered weapons. They don't allow it. At the beginning of the cease fire all the firearms are check to make sure they are not load., bolt held back and magazine separate from the weapon. If you make a move for the shooting bench, even just to pick up some paper, you'll have like 3 people yelling at you.
Attention to safety is why I continue to frequent these ranges. Never had anyone accidently point a the business end of their gun at me, everyone is friendly and everything is safe.
