Rifle Range is a residential neighbourhood within the city of George Town in the Malaysian state of Penang.

Located 4.4 km (2.7 mi) west of the city centre, the area was once home to a shooting range used by the British Army.

The Malaysian federal government constructed nine blocks of low-cost public housing at the area in 1969, making them the first residential high-rises in Penang.

In 1964, the Malaysian federal government approved a pilot project to construct prefabricated high-rise housing at Rifle Range.

[1][2][3] The Rifle Range flats became the tallest buildings in George Town until the completion of Sunrise Tower in 1977.
