Excellent Range low-cost and outdoors. What else can you say? Would be nice if you could shoot steel there, but I'll take it.

Go here all the time and for $50 a year it is hard to beat. They are constantly working on it doing upgrades.

I wanted to revisit the fundamentals and refresh my understanding of safe and effective use of…read morehandguns for self defense. I scheduled a one-on-one with Ray Holcomb after considering his experience and extensive background...Ray provided so much insight and explained things in very clear and easy to understand language, I learned more from Ray in our time together than I had from various other sources and my confidence and accuracy improved immediately. I left with the knowledge I needed - I can't recommend Ray enough to anyone looking for the foundation to safe and effective use of firearms.

Outrageous incompetence. Aside from $65 long gun transfer…read morefees, they can't do NFA transfers correctly. I had a suppressor form 3'd to them, and they insisted I set up a Silencershop account to do it. They told me every SOT has to go through Silencershop (lie). They told me they didn't have the suppressor in yet (lie). They told me the ATF was still closed so transfers couldn't be done (lie). Grover is making it up as he goes, and every answer is no. After so many lies, I said enough just send it to a competitor. of course Grover says he doesn't even know if that can be done (lie). Do not do business with this shop. Aside from being incompetent, they are insulting to the intelligence of anyone who's been doing this a while. Such a catastrophe that the area is served by such a terrible gun shop.

This place is basically an adult playground in the best way. They have everything here, including…read moresurprisingly great food. My wife brought me to GUNTRY for my birthday, and it was an awesome experience from start to finish. We kicked things off with a simulation session, which was so cool. I am already planning to do it again. The shock pack that zaps you when you get hit is wild. It is a little crazy, but honestly really fun to try. We spent an hour at the range afterward. It is definitely loud and a bit tight, but it gets the job done. The staff was friendly, patient, and very helpful the whole time. The retail shop is huge too, with tons of firearms and accessories to browse. We ended the night at their cigar and whisky event, and that was a great time. The whisky was strong and plentiful, and dinner was delicious. It was all catered in house by the cafe. Pricing is pretty reasonable overall. Their lesson rates seem lower than a lot of other places I have seen, although I have not had a chance to take one yet. My only complaint is that I wish it were closer. I live in DC, so it is definitely a trek, but it was worth the drive.

This range is fabulous,one of the best range I have ever been to. They offer an array of services…read moreand lane choices from 25 yrd to 50 yrd to 100 yrd all indoor too. There is an Armory for weapon issues if needed, WELL TRAINED, range instructers, and an unbelievable cafeteria for after you shoot with an EXCELLENT menu! Training classes, safety classes, advanced classes, female only classes and more not to mention severly discounted prices for joining of of the many Club Membership options. I recommend with 5 Stars ABSOLUTELY!

Used to love this place, but new policies and lack of transparency changed that…read more I'm writing this to help fellow shooters make an informed choice. I used to be a big fan of The Gun Range because of their friendly staff and their policy allowing outside ammo. As someone who buys in bulk from Cheaper Than Dirt, being able to bring my own rounds makes this hobby much more affordable. Unfortunately, my last visit with my son was a major disappointment: Shotgun Ammo Price Gouging: We brought a new Boss 25 to break in, only to be told we could no longer use outside shotgun ammo. They quoted me $48 for a box of 25 shells. For context, I buy 250 shells online for $86. That is a massive markup. Misleading Safety Claims: When I questioned the policy change, the manager claimed it was due to a fire caused by "faulty shotgun ammo" at another range. I looked this up while waiting; the fire she referenced was actually attributed to faulty air filtration, not ammo. Poor Customer Service: We bought two targets but only ended up using one. When I tried to return the unused, unrolled target, I was told it was "unreturnable" because it was rolled up--despite the fact that the clerk was the one who rolled it when selling it to us. A private business has every right to change its policies, but they should be honest about it. Don't hide behind safety excuses to justify inflated prices. They've lost my business and my trust.

Went with my GF for her first time. As gun ranges go, it's solid. The big plus for me is that the…read morepeople I dealt with were very nice and did not have that typical gun range attitude that you're likely to find. I saw them interacting with people that were clearly first time shooters and they seemed very nice and helpful. As someone that was clearly experienced, they didn't ask me a lot of questions, and just gave me the information on their range protocol and I was good to go. I went on a weekend and it does get busy. We had to wait about 20 minutes for a lane, which really isn't that bad. I appreciated the fact that you can bring your own ammo with a few restrictions such as in rounds, tracer, steel, core, etc. Nothing too over-the-top, and all very reasonable. I did not buy any ammo there, so I can't comment on the prices. The range rental fees are for as long as you like to shoot, which is very nice. They have a number of handguns and long guns for rent, the only restriction there is you must use their ammo and you must have at least two people... For some reason, they will not rent a firearm to single shooters. The shooting positions are a little narrow, but are absolutely fine for two people. There is not much room behind each position, especially if there are many people on the range, so keep that in mind. It is good to note that since they allow a wide range of calibers, you may find yourself on a line with people shooting long rifles and large caliber handguns. If you're a first time shooter, or don't like it crowded, I would strongly recommend going during the week. They have extended hours until 9 PM every day, but Sunday, which is great. The Saturday that we went the range was completely full, and some shooters were shooting large caliber rifles, as well as a few people had full auto or maybe they rented them. It's definitely a little overwhelming if you're not prepared for it!
