    Good to know

    Range questions, answered.

    Still wondering about something? Call the range desk at 704-414-6020.

    I’m new and have never held a gun. Can I go to the range?

    Absolutely. We welcome shooters of all experience levels, including complete beginners. Range Safety Officers give basic instruction and a safety orientation, and we offer introductory classes and one-on-one instruction.

    Before shooting, you’ll get a safety briefing on basic firearm safety, range commands, proper handling and emergency procedures.

    I don’t have any equipment. Can I buy or rent what I need?

    Yes. Our pro shop stocks range-approved ammunition in popular calibers, paper and reactive targets, eye and ear protection, and shooting accessories. We also rent a wide selection of pistols, rifles and shotguns, and every rental includes basic instruction on the firearm’s operation.

    Is there a minimum age?

    The minimum age is 10 with proper adult supervision.

    • Ages 10–13: accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times and complete youth certification
    • Ages 14–17: parent or guardian must be present and sign the waiver
    • Ages 18+: can shoot independently with valid ID

    All minors complete our youth safety orientation before shooting.

    Are women welcome on the range?

    Absolutely. We offer women-only classes and events, female instructors on request, and ladies’ night specials and programs. Many of our regular customers and staff members are women.

    Is the facility accessible for physically handicapped shooters?

    Yes. We have ADA-compliant parking and entrance, wheelchair-accessible shooting lanes, adjustable shooting benches, accessible restrooms and staff assistance when needed. Please contact us in advance so we can make your visit as easy as possible.

    Can I bring my own ammunition?

    Yes, as long as it’s factory-made with lead-core bullets, the right caliber for your firearm, and passes inspection by range staff. No steel-core, tipped, reloaded or hand-loaded ammunition.

    Can I use my own ammunition in a rental gun?

    No. Rental firearms use range-provided ammunition only. It keeps the right specifications in our rentals, maintains warranty and insurance coverage, and keeps the fleet in excellent condition for everyone.

    Which firearms and calibers are permitted?

    Handguns (pistols and revolvers), rifles from .22 LR through .308 Winchester, and shotguns with slugs only. Popular calibers include .22 LR, 9mm, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, .223/5.56 and .308 Winchester.

    Ammunition must be factory-made with lead-core bullets. Steel-core, armor-piercing, incendiary, tracer, exploding and tipped ammunition are prohibited.

    How long are the lanes, and how do targets work?

    Lanes are 25 yards (75 feet). The electronic retrieval system sets your target anywhere from 3 to 25 yards with push-button controls at each station, LED distance indicators and individual lane lighting.

    Is there a dress code?

    Yes. Closed-toe shoes are required at all times on the range. Please avoid low-cut tops, tank tops and clothing that leaves the neck, chest and arms exposed. Hot ejected brass can ricochet unpredictably.
