We had a great experience here. I took my husband here as one of his birthday presents. Neither of…read moreus had any experience with guns (like we've never even held a real one) so we signed up for a lesson and then shot at the range afterward. The lesson, gun rental, protective gear, lane rental etc was all included in the $75pp price and I just had to buy ammunition which was $49 for a box of 50. The lesson was informative and necessary and our instructor Vince was very helpful. We would definitely return.

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!

He is brash, unforgiving, and filterless. He says what he means and means what he says. Bluntly put... he isn't for everyone, especially those with dainty feelings. All that said, Steve is a good man that runs a tight ship. He matches energy and will give what he gets. I have frequented his establishment many times, and he has always treated me and my guests with respect, but make no mistake....he doesn't give a #$%@ what you think. The range is small and welcoming, and Steve is willing to share expert advice. This place is no frills. That works for some people and not for others. Steve can be accused of being a lot of things... racist is definitely not one of them. Anyone who has spent any time at Pistol People will agree.

It's nice to see FYE back in the mall with a revamped storefront, but I can't help comparing it to…read morethe original location. The new store feels more like a mix of pop culture merchandise than the music-focused spot it used to be. While it's colorful and has plenty of things to browse, it doesn't capture the same energy or atmosphere the old store had. Back when FYE was down at the other end of the mall, it was all about music. Rows of CDs, posters, and the thrill of discovering a new album made it a hangout spot for teens like me. It wasn't just shopping, it was part of growing up--meeting friends, flipping through racks, and walking out with something you couldn't wait to listen to. The new version just doesn't bring back that same feeling. It's fine for what it is now, but it will never replace the memory of the old FYE that was such a big part of being a teenager.

The original as well as the previous owners both put in weird lights all over the house and we are having a nightmare of a time trying to replace bulbs... So I took a few of them to Ace to try and figure out what I need, and unfortunately they were unable to help me. The labels on the bulb faded, and they looked like 3 different types of bulbs and we had no idea the wattage... The store was jam packed! It has very small aisles, just big enough for 2 people to walk down. Every square inch has something to sell. It is basically a slimmed down Home Depot. It was nice but a little dated and shabby, but if you come here you are not looking for a new clean modern aesthetic, you are here for a specific item. All in all the staff was friendly, but unfortunately was unable to help me with my bulbs. If I do need basic home improvement items, this will be my place to go!
