This is one AWESOME place to go to about guns, classes and shooting range. I have not been in a friendlier gun store and I have been in quite a few in different States. The place looks like a hole in the wall from the outside. The parking space is really small. And the neighborhood looks like you may need to be armed. But trust me all of that is truly nitpicky after you get to meet the crew. I haven't fired a firearm in over 10 years and needed to finally get a Texas license. I was immediately welcomed as I came in and it wasn't a plastic "Welcome to WalMart" welcome. I walked around looking at their guns and accessories and their lanes. I was surprised on how many lanes they had. I was still a bit nervous when a female a manager started to talk to me. (Man I really feel like a dummy for not remembering her name. I think it was Sonia). She calmed my nerves and asked all the appropriate questions. She took her time and answered everyone to my satisfaction. I told her that I signed up for their Saturday class but once again told her I was nervous about the required time sequence for the shooting portion. She then told me that I could come back any time before Saturday and that their instructor Nelson would teach me and prepare me for the test. I came the next day and I met with Nelson. Remember that name: NELSON!! He took his time in giving me very clear instructions and told me that if I followed his instructions I could ace the shooting portion. He then tested me and I actually got a 100% score!! This guy is truly AMAZING!!! As I was leaving he reminded me that my lane rental, which included ear and eye protection, was available for the day. I went back with my two 9mm handguns and blew the bulls eye out. Mark my words: I will not go anywhere else but to Marksman Indoor Range. Trust me you will not be disappointed. Next step is that AR-15. That will be for another review. read more

Great service and decent variety of guns Friendly environment and cheat targets over tall great experience for my first time read more

I came here this past Sunday and it was my first time going. I had a GREAT day at the range because of Nelson and his staff. At the moment, I'm still a little green when it comes to shooting. Eddie who works there actually gave me some tips and was really kind while doing so. You can't beat the price either. I went with the purpose of really training with my personal firearm, but I saw the selection they had and the rental prices are priced great. So I'll definitely try something from their inventory when I'm looking to mixup my firearm selection. You can tell Nelson is all about his customers and their safety. While there, someone wasn't properly following the rules. I think there was a warning, and after that, they were politely asked to leave, which made me feel extremely comfortable there. For a smaller range, it really does have a personality and I absolutely loved it. I also overheard Nelson giving a lesson to this young man and he was so patient and knowledgeable. Eddie was the same way with me when he was giving me a hand while my front sight was being fixed. I can only imagine the rest of the staff follows suit, because Nelson seems to be a great business owner with expectations that makes everyone's experience fun, comfortable, relaxed, and safe. I live about 45min to an hour away, and I still plan on getting a membership and lessons. I don't think I'll be going anywhere else to work on my shooting etiquette and skills. It was a big stress release (which I needed) and the fact that this establishment is so great made it that much better! A big thank you to Nelson, Eddie, and everyone at Marksman Range!!! read more

Very nice and traditional indoor range! Have been there for about 60 years I believe. People are friendly and love to talk! read more

Might be an okay place to shoot, but I've been trying to pick an ffl transfer for three days. Place is in chaos which isn't a good thing for a gun range. read more

I absolutely recommend this business Marksman range Awesome indoor shooting range with wonderful customer service It was the first time for my 15-year-old to shoot a pistol and we were amazed by the help we were given from Nelson he took care of giving my son a quick 5 to 10 minute gun lesson on how to shoot and use gun safety Such a professional Thanks again, Nelson Awesome job !! read more

Marksman Indoor Range - My son at the marksman range - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - South Houston, Texas

Came here because naturally, a lady's gotta learn to carry & aim nowadays. Brought my own gun to shoot however they DO have guns for rent (did my own research online and was confirmed upon arrival), but we ended up buying little accessories. ammo, ear muff for me, and a lane for babe since ladies get in free on Mondays! shooting is unlimited and you can buy more targets if you'd like. There were plenty people there but it still felt safe and well controlled environment. The lady and gent at the register were super nice and knowledgable. I really enjoyed myself for this being my very first learning lesson and i plan to comeback. Thank you! read more

Marksman Indoor Range - Target, ear muffs, ear plugs (comes with purchase) - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - South Houston, Texas

I was looking for a gun range with staff to instruct me on how to shoot a revolver correctly. Nelson at Marksman Indoor Range answered my call and set up an appointment. He went over safety, stance, how to hold the revolver, and much more. The way he teaches you will stay in your memory because he adds some humor, song, and memories that you need to experience for yourself. You will enjoy it. This range is safe. read more

The people who work here are so nice and they are very helpful. I really enjoyed my time there and they give you pointers .

I was here working in the area. This was a great diversion from my work. Staff is friendly and helpful. I witnessed Nelson stop what he was doing behind the counter, grab an inert training pistol and give impromptu instruction to shooters who were having a discussion about why their POI didn't meet POA. That's great service. They also watch muzzle discipline like hawks. As far as indoor public ranges go, Marksman is as safe as it gets. Fair prices and policies. NFA Friendly. read more

Marksman Indoor Range - Carnival Targets! - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - South Houston, Texas

I've been coming to Marksman for two years, paying good money, shooting safely, and enjoying the relationships I've made along the way. Just recently 11-4-2023 I attended the range, after about 200+ shots down range and on paper, I happen to shoot the corner of the hanger holding my target, mind you the hangar was and is still in perfect condition. Nelson, A shooting instructor there decided that it was justified to call me out on the situation according to the owners "new rule" that I had to pay a 50$ fee for "damaging" the hangar although the range will continue to re use it, Furthermore I will not be returning to the range due to this new skeem they're running, you can't tell me that this is justified. I've enjoyed everyday training in that facility, and because I don't have robo-cop aim and hit the hangar once you're going to penalize me ? just before my mishap Nelson had to yell at someone for not pointing their fire arm down range, yet they don't get penalized, but because one bullet out of 200+ hit the hangar I had to pay 50$ plus my 20$ shooting fee, that's disrespectful and possibly the worst customer service you can offer, at the same time they're inviting conflict being that no one warns you of this before hand, it's a terrible way to take advantage of customers. If I had been shooting recklessly, dumping 20 rounds at a time, being unsafe, I understand that clearly I would be in the wrong, but the owner is abusing people with the "new rule". read more

Great place to practice shooting great ppl and service! Highly recommend 10/10 won't regret it ! read more

I had a very good experience it was mostly empty but the people were very kind. They have a lot of selection between rental weapons and equipment $18 per lane very good service. read more

I have had a few bad experiences shooting guns so I decided to take a class with Nelson and he was amazing!!! He was super knowledgeable and made me feel super comfortable. I would recommend his class to anyone who feels uneasy about guns. 10/10 would recommend. read more

Literally the worst gun range I've ever been to. Service is awful. Staff is unfriendly and not helpful. I highly DO NOT recommend. There are way better ranges in the Houston area. Honestly I don't know how they're still in business. The prices aren't bad but they're also in a horrible part of town so just because it's a gun range doesn't mean you won't get robbed or have your vehicle broken into. I agree with some other reviewers, the short guy definitely has serious anger issues and overall lacks in people skills. I personally think they judge people and steal. My friend had a gun and they told him it was too powerful but I noticed they had guns available for rent that were way more powerful. Nonetheless, my friend put his gun up and we rented theirs. We were in there for 30mins and my friend's car was broken into, gun gone along with my wristlet (I never leave my purse in vehicles but felt it would be in the way trying to shoot). I asked if they could review the tapes and I was yelled at so to me if there was nothing to hide then it shouldn't have been a problem. Being a business especially with firearms you should want your customers to be safe and find the culprits. The window that was broken was also done in a more professional manner which again leads me to think the range had something to do with it. Material belongings were lost as well as a special keepsake that belonged to my deceased father but I'm glad my friend and I were safe. Overall my suggestion just steer clear, trust you'll thank me later. read more

First time visiting a shooting range, and I am incredibly amazed at how great the staff is here!!! Came with my bf on a Thursday mid-afternoon and there was no sort of wait. Super affordable, and the rate is for the entire day so you can leave and come back if you decide to grab lunch. Whilst shooting, in a non-intrusive manner, one of members of staff came over to provide some much-needed free guidance for a first time shooter. Definitely a very welcoming establishment and will certainly be regulars! Customer service here is beyond excellent! read more

Marksman Indoor Range - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - South Houston, Texas

First time ever holding and shooting a gun after my class and training. Great customer service, very knowledgeable and professional staff. Fun targets available for purchase and practice. They offer classes and handgun training but I went with Lt. D. Walker at jcpdwalker@yahoo.com because he is very thorough, friendly, fun instructor with many years of knowledge besides being a JCP officer. This place is clean and can get busy but it was worth it. read more

Marksman Indoor Range - First time ever target practice - how exciting it was. - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - South Houston, Texas

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff and recently updated the facilities. Took my son there and had a really good time and when I asked if there was a gunsmith on site to change a mag release button on a pistol Beau immediately said he could help and had it completed promptly and we were back on the range in no time. I've been to a lot of ranges over the last 30 plus years but it's one of the best. Additionally if you are in need of firearms or CHL Training it's available on site. read more

I've been here a bunch of times I like coming here it's cheap to shoot real good service and it's a 1 time charge to get in then you can come and go shoot as much as you want vs other establishments they charge or hour. Today my 7 year old came out with me And shot her first gun ever (BB GUN) she had a blast GIVE THIS PLACE A TRY read more

Nelson and all the guys here are very knowledgeable and helpful. The range and store is immaculate and ammo stock is plentiful. Would definitely recommend these guys as the top range and gun shop in all of Houston! read more

It was my first time at a gun range and using a gun but it was recommended that I come here since they are so helpful and friendly. I brought some friends and Nelson gave us a safety class for first timers. He was very good and helpful. He does have his personal preferences on stuff but for good reason so don't take offense. After the nerves wore off and we got more comfortable and had a good time. Overall it was a great experience! read more

Marksman Indoor Range - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - South Houston, Texas

GREAT facility. GREAT people! GREAT location. Hat's off to this team!

Little to no waiting time and excellent service. Ammo is about 28 for 9mm and range fees are $14 per person

First time shooting anything. My nephew and I wanted something to do and saw this place. They easily signed us up for a ~20 min intro class. The guy was thorough and safety was his priority. We felt safe and comfortable to shoot by ourselves. Can't think of anything to complain about. read more

When I walked in I couldn't shoot at all. The trainer saw my frustration, was very patient, and taught me what I needed to do and what I was doing wrong. Most of this target was shot by me. Thank you so much for teaching me better! read more

Marksman Indoor Range - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - South Houston, Texas

Excellent place to go practice your shooting. It is very cheap to rent. It is 8 bucks per person to shoot all day no matter what type of gun. You can also leave (i.e. grab lunch) and then come back granted its on the same day. Comes with one bulleyes target each, but additional targets are inexpensive. Went on a Saturday afternoon and there were a few lanes open. Very friendly and attentive service. I inquired about ammo (didn't buy) but the prices are comparable (slightly more expensive) than a Walmart. So if you happen to expend all the ammo you brought and want to unload a few more mags, they got you covered. My friend bought a few magazines too. Overall, very satisfied with my experience! read more

Incredibly nice staff and very convenient location in Pasadena. Mondays women shoot for free! It's an indoor range and they let you shoot rifles and even shotguns.

Great indoor range, no complaints, people answered every question and very knowledgeable.

This is the best range in the area. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. Lobby is always clean. This is my go to range as all the others are either run down, require memberships, or limit how long you can shoot. read more

Mannn these people are extremely helpful and go the extra mile to make sure your comfortable and educated.

Price is good, customer service was excellent, clean restrooms but.... their indoor lanes were hot. No air movement whatsoever! I shot for a half hour or so and it was just too hot! I gave 4 stars due the cleanliness, professionalism & price. But please, the lanes need tone cooler! read more

Came in with my 12 gauge, asked if the rounds I had were applicable to fire at the range, got all the details and rules at hand. Not to pricy, but would definitely come back here! Close to home and seems like their regulars are nice chill people. Was lended glasses and ear protection. One free target sheet. Check this place out everyone! Just don't be that idiot with a loaded weapon, and/or not following their rules. read more

I came here today for the first time and it was great. The guys at the counter are nice and professional. I recommend this place to everyone. I will definitely be back. read more

Extremely rude help. My wife who is a novice shooter, accidentally why'll unloading the chamber pointed it upward and backward. The employee saw this and just unload on her calling her a "fucking bitch", completely belittling her and would not listen to anything she had to say. The facility is old and dark with poor ventilation. I normally overlook that aspect, but what occurred will never good back read more

First time at this range the customer service is top tier nice staff helped me with everything I needed will be my go to range for now on
