Great place. Owner is fun and friendly and the place is just great to shoot at. We're expereinced shooters, but they also have everything for people who don't have their own equipment. read more

It's a great place to shoot, it's just not heated or air conditioned. But overall great location to shoot. Also it's just handguns not shotguns or rifles. I believe 22 rifles might be ok. read more

Solid spot with helpful folk. Range is easy to operate and clean. No pressure and no shot jocks.

Few of things that could be improved. 1. Safety range officer was barely present while shooting. Should have made clear who he/she was, and walked around to enforce safety. 2. Heating/AC do not work. Expect outside temperatures inside shooting area 3. Customer Service was okay did not seem pleased that we had come to practice shooting 4. Some of the safety/policy signs worn out and could barely be read 5. Switches for target are not labeled. They are functional but need to be explained on how to use them. 6. Lighting was okay some areas seem dark 7. Carpet floor with broom makes it harder to sweep brass could be improved Shooting range gets the job done. Has working target system, cheap rates, ammo, and multiple targets to choose from. However lacks in numerous areas of operations. read more

This is the place I go when I have no where else to go. I used to come here a lot as a kid, and I'm now mid 20s. The guy behind the counter has become very rude and condescending. I understand he deals with incompetent people on a daily basis, however this is a business, and it should be welcoming to customers. Especially new shooters. Additionally, the range doesn't allow 5.7 ammunition. Which is laughable because it allows 10mm and 44mag which ballistically have better penetration. Green tip 5.7 I understand. However standard FMJ 5.7 is not what this guy thinks it is. One last thing, the heat is immense in there, some A/C would be nice. read more

BLUF: This place is a great place to shoot. It is a no frills shooting range but it has everything one needs to shoot. It is so good actually, I want to keep it a secret so it won't crowded. This place is pistol range. To that end, they have everything one might need to be able to practice one's shooting skills (i.e. targets, eye / hearing pro, ammo, etc.,) read more

Very nice shooting range. Knowledgeable staff, reasonable fees and target prices. Clean and well lit. Automatic target retrievers, sweep up your own brass. Ammo is a little pricey but everyplace is nowadays. read more

first time at a gun range, and I'm super happy with my experience. Paulie and Stevie :) were really friendly and very helpful. I'm excited to go back! thanks, guys!! read more

The Range - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - Fredericksburg, Virginia

As I was coming to the City of Stafford VA I needed to check my pistol zero and get some practice time behind the trigger. This facility more than met this standard. The staff is polite and helpful and more than happy to have out of town folks use the range. Prices for range time and gun rentals are bargain. The facilities are clean and ready to use. For a great time to improve your marksmanship skills in a safe place head to The Range! read more

Good place to go shoot when you have no other place to go. No rifle or shotgun shooting allowed in premises. The two gentlemen that work there REALLY need to take a course in customer etiquette because they are the perfect rendition of grumpy old men! read more

My wife and I went went here to put a few rounds down range and that is exactly what we did. We enjoyed ourselves and will definitely be back. read more

This place rocks! My husband and I truly enjoyed our time there to test out my 9mil Christmas present. Their staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. We brought our own ammo but they do sell their own for a reasonable price as well. You don't have to rent goggles or ear pro from them if you bring your own. Get your targets from them. Overall 5 stars! read more

Not the biggest or best looking range around, but gets the job done to put rounds down range. Gets crowded at times and other times not as busy. But this is still my range of choice in the Stafford area. Has everything you need if you do forget something. read more

I've been going here for 20 years. Used to be able to smoke indoors! Very reasonable prices on reloaded ammo or bring your own. Good selection of targets and hearing/eye protection all available. Nothing fancy - you're here to shoot, right? "Newby's" May find some of the personalities offensive, so millennial snowflakes with sensitive feelings should avoid this place and proceed to Starbucks for a hot cocoa and foot massage. read more

No bull$hit. Great range, and good people. Lots of law enforcement and military. Cant ask for a better rep.

Professional respectful gun owners will appreciate The Range and the clientele that utilize the range. I've been to most of the Ranges in Northern Va and Maryland and this is the only Range I've never seen someone doing something dangerous. What I have witnessed is other patrons educating inexperienced gun owners on safety when sharing range time with others, which made me recognize the customer base doing business here are the right type of Enthusiasts . Employees have always been friendly and knowledgeable read more

Overall it's a shooting range none the less. The gentlemen at the counter was nice one minute then rude the next. I think he was having a bit of trouble putting on the fake smile. My friend said she had read disclosures before and was good without reading it. It took her comment so serious and was like well I'm not other ranges so you need to read mine. She later asked for change and he didn't want to give her change for a 20. He just kept throwing out rude remarks then 5 seconds later he was trying to be nice and helpful. It was so annoying. I've been once before and didn't have any issues. I understand safety is important especially here but he could have handled her comment better or just not responded to that part at all. read more

Well run, well ventilated and well lit, safe range. All of their equipment works and the place is clean. They have all the popular calibers of ammo to buy at fantastic prices, don't even bother looking to buy reloads for any cheaper - you'll waste your time. If your thinking about what gun to buy, they have several you can rent and test out. They also have targets and safety b.s. too. I read one review about "the furniture is old" If that's what you care about, my review is worthless to you. But if you want to read a review from someone who's been to over 20 indoor ranges all over the world, then my review is honest and open. read more

It was the filthiest place I've ever seen. The poor lighting was concerning, considering live ammo was being fired. Also it seemed the AC didn't work or they didn't turn it on much. After about 40 minutes I left because the heat was making me feel sick. I'd recommend driving a little further to a functional range. read more

If you like being condescended by the guy at the desk, this is the place for you. We had never been here before, and we were treated like children for not knowing his policies. We didn't do anything unsafe, but he was just generally rude. I almost just left before actually shooting. The range itself is alright. Nothing special. Will not return. read more

It's a mediocre range. Cons- Worn out Bad customer service Bad heating/cooling Small pistols only Funny smells Faulty equipment Pros- Relaxed rules No crowd My experience: I went with a friend who brought his own pistol, there was no organized line to the counter, he took a long time figuring out his own computer with each customer, when we did reach the counter the owner cursed since we were new customers and not in the system, we rented eyes/ears from him which were clean but very well used. The range itself was a carpeted area that's very worn down. They had old and somewhat faulty unlabeled switches for the targets/lights, a single half broken staple gun to mount your target to the boards, the Range Officer was chill and kinda helpful so it was nice they didn't watch your every move. Payment at the end was awkward because he again cursed to himself and just seemed ticked off at the world. I might go again since the price was low, but I'm definitely looking for better places even if they're further away. read more

Wow, I had a great time at The Range. The customer service is average, the range wasn't crowded. The pricing is amazing compared to Pennsylvania. It's a small location, so ear protection is necessary. Fairly clean and most of the patrons are friendly. read more

Love this place great place to shoot and talk to the owner about guns. Also fun see his reaction to new people in the place. Makes me laugh.

The best range value in the area, They don't make you buy their ammo, and the range fee is reasonable. Don't let the look of the lobby fool you. The target tracks work perfectly and are simple to use. The gentleman that runs the counter is always friendly and willing to help. They do have eyes and ears available for rent, and keep the most popular calibers of handgun ammunition as well as other shooting supplies on hand for sale. If you reload, they usually have a good amount of brass packed and ready to go. They are usually pretty buy, but I've never had to wait more than 15 minutes for a lane. This is a pistol only range, no rifles or rifle caliber handguns due to the size of the facility and backstop safety rating. I agree with previous reviewers - This is not a fancy "yuppie" or "Full Comfort" range, just a place to practice your pistol shooting skills. I feel more comfortable shooting here than at most other indoor ranges. read more

Great no nonsense place to learn to shoot. Been coming here for a month and I love it. The owner is straight forward and safety is #1 with this place. If u don't have a sense of humor and are sensitive then the owner might seem like a asshole so if u don't care about safety then this is not the place for you. Great place for parents and kids to shoot. I love this place. I feel safe and relaxed. read more

Great facility for its purpose. I have taught my entire family how to shoot there. Prices are very reasonable and there was no s nose of being hurried. read more

Ok if you're going there because you want to be pampered then go somewhere else. This is a place for serious shooters NOT a my gun is bigger than yours range. That's why I like it. Owner and I believe his daughter are GREAT people. They just recognize bullshitters when they see them. They got 4 stars vice 5 because I can't shoot my shotguns or ARs there. read more

I love going to The Range at least once or twice a month for target practice. It is very affordable and the staff are very friendly and courteous. They also offer eye and ear protection at reasonable rental cost is you happen to forget to bring your own and they sell targets. read more

This is a no frills range. It was great. Felt very comfortable going in with my son. We brought our own guns and ammo. Had a blast and made for a fun family outing. read more

No issues. Not a lot of frills, but the range time is CHEAP and the ammo on the premise is CHEAP. You may only buy one box of 50 per caliber and they seem to have a pretty good selection - I purchased 10mm auto and .38 special. I will definitely be back! read more

Terrible customer service. It almost seems like they could care less you are there. The girl that works behind the counter must have some social issues. Only reason to go here is Bc it's the only one in the area. read more

Pretty decent customer service here nothing special. Facility looks kind of old especially the furniture inside but overall the rang experience is very good. Been there several times now and always have a good time. Never have to wait and very cost efficient to get a lane. No bad experiences here so far and would recommend to anyone who wants a nice cheap place to shoot at. read more

Nothing over the top, it's a shooting range that is showing it's wear and tear...people have mentioned to dress warm when it's cold, and they aren't kidding. When you can see your breath in the lane and can't feel your fingers because it's too cold, then they may not be exaggerating. It was 18 degrees inside the shooting area...so that means that when its 90 degrees outside that it will be very warm inside. It's still a low key place to go and shoot your handguns, no pretentious posers, and the snob level is toned down quite a bit. read more

Good place to just blast some rounds off. Reasonable prices and they can provide eye and ear protection if you don't have any. You can also buy ammo and targets. Distances are variable. Overall had a good experience there. read more

Rude, dirty, unkempt, unprofessional. Take your pick that's this place. $35 for a transfer which is not the worst but you realize why when you hear the man behind the counter start cursing and talking bad to customers. If you want to be treated like trash, go here, if you enjoy the stench of refuse, go here, if you want to have a bad experience, go here. I had two guns transferred through this shop and gave him the benefit of the doubt the first time, we all have bad days, but this last time he was completely unprofessional and flat out rude. He was cursing in front of my girlfriend and in front of children. He clearly doesn't want to stay in business so oblige him and go elsewhere. read more

My husband and I went to The Range for the first time today. Our experience was exceptional. The staff was very helpful. I am glad we chose to go! read more

This is a great range with very, very reasonable prices. One point of note: in the colder months wear warm clothes. Otherwise no complaints. The staff are helpful and knowledgable, especially about Glocks. read more

Range is in decent shape. Horrible attitudes behind the counter. Bring your own stapler or tape, there is one shared for all of the lanes. Bring a jacket too. read more

I like this place you do not feel smothered by people sure they do not care but I hate going to a place when they have a person watching you. Example Do not switch guns with friends no rapid fire you can here. As long as you are not careless you can have fun shooting. If you don't like this place you can join a membership. And it will be nice but you will not get your money's worth. read more

The Range is a practical shooting facility run by shooters, not by a bunch of wannabe "operators." It's a pretty old building and it's not fancy, but it has 14 operating lanes where you can shoot any handgun caliber (.22 - .44 mag) handgun or carbine with no drama. They rent guns, sell reload range ammo for a reasonable price if you need it, sell targets, and have ears and eyes if you need them. But if you have your own gun, ammo, and range gear that's just fine and the range fee is very reasonable. These are good people with plenty of shooting experience and an easy to get along with attitude. Very friendly and they get to know your name quickly and treat you like one of the family. The only drawback? No AC or heat in the actual range portion, so if it's hot or cold outside expect it to be even hotter or colder inside the lanes. But I've been shooting there weekly for 9 years now, and you do get used to it. To my wife and I, going there is like going to shoot with family and friends. Highly recommended. read more
