I'm not sure what they are expecting but gun ranges are not elegant, fancy or going to cater to your every need and whim. They are normally run by an old grumpy Veteran and w a staff that is normally very direct, stern and short bc they are dealing w life and death.. they can come across as rude, but it's not meant to normally. It's the fact they're often dealing with not smart people, not used to shooting firearms, and are casually holding things that kill people.. not your favorite martini. Keep all that in mind and don't expect them to baby you. First, this IS NOT the best range for first time shooters. Can you do it, sure, ideal- no. Second, I love this little range. It's a small, back of the neighborhood type of place. Only 18 yards or so. It's not fancy and only 5 or 6 lanes.. They expect you to know what you're doing; get in, do your thing, use standard firearm protocol for ranges, then get out. The owner has always been nice to me, as w the staff.

I'm honestly confused how this place has over 4 stars. If I could, I wouldn't even give it one…read more Before trusting the glowing 5-star reviews (likely from friends and family), I'd highly recommend reading the real 1-star reviews from actual customers. We even dealt with the OWNER, who was the rudest of them all. The second we arrived, they asked where we were from. We brushed it off as small talk, but looking back, it felt like judgment. We were a large bridal party with both experienced and new shooters. Since this is advertised as a TRAINING CENTER, we expected the staff to be welcoming toward beginners, review safety, and provide proper instruction. Especially since we had called ahead, explained it was for a bridal party, and were told they were "excited to have us." No mention was made about experience being an issue. Upon signing the liability waiver, the owner handed me a Ruger magazine (even after we said we were more familiar with Glock). He gave us five seconds to load it (even after we explained we usually use a tool because of our nails) before yanking it back, saying he had "seen enough," and accusing us of lying about our shooting experience. At that point, everyone was uncomfortable and just wanted to leave. When we told them, the owner yelled that he'd be happy to take our money but didn't want us shooting there anyway. As we walked out, he and his staff stood at the window and stared at us until we drove away. Truly, this was the most uncomfortable and unnerving experience I've ever had at a gun range and we are members at multiple ranges in our home state... I highly encourage. You read the one star reviews of people having ricochet bullets hit their hands and they begin bleeding and need to go to the ER and the owners didn't care. Or about the owner screaming at a seven-year-old. Please check the other reviews before coming here!!

STOP LOOKING -- THIS IS YOUR NEW RANGE…read more Copendero Indoor Archery & Gun Range has been an absolute gem for our A Girl & A Gun Woodlands chapter. After less-than-stellar experiences elsewhere, finding a range that truly values its members has been refreshing. From day one, they've treated us like gold--welcoming, respectful, and consistently accommodating. The staff is outstanding. Their RSOs are attentive, safety-focused, and professional while still being friendly and approachable. Special shoutout to Michael and Colt, who are always excellent on the range. Angel at the coffee/snack bar is a delight, and Chris seems to be everywhere at once keeping things running smoothly. Gabe and Brandon have also gone above and beyond to support our group and make everyone feel welcome. The facility itself is impressive--clean, spacious, and beautifully designed. Great pistol lanes, a solid 100-yard rifle range, unique rental firearms, quality targets, a strong retail selection, and even an on-site gunsmith. They also have an indoor archery range, which adds another layer of fun and versatility. Online lane reservation ability is a plus. Another major advantage is the availability of multiple classroom spaces equipped with presentation technology, making it an excellent venue for training, safety courses, group meetings, and educational events. One feature I especially appreciate is that each lane has cameras that let you evaluate your target without constantly reeling it back in. It's efficient, modern, and makes practice sessions much smoother. Their ventilation system is excellent--a big deal at any indoor range--and clearly designed with shooter comfort and safety in mind. There's also a front coffee/snack bar open to everyone, which gives the whole place a welcoming clubhouse feel rather than a sterile retail vibe. One of the most distinctive touches is the décor, featuring taxidermy displays--many reportedly harvested by the owner's son with a bow, which is genuinely impressive. Upstairs is a separate business, but accessible to certain tier members and for events. A VIP lounge space that deserves mention all its own: cigars, drinks, TV, fireplace, pool table, and a great atmosphere to unwind after shooting. They also host creative events--date nights with chef-prepared meals, couples shooting activities, indoor steel challenges, and a calendar full of options for every skill level. They support veterans with discounts and are generous supporters of the Girl & A Gun ladies as well, which says a lot about the kind of business they are. Whether you're teaching your child to shoot safely, training seriously, or just enjoying a weekend range session, Copendero delivers. I get tremendous value from my membership and highly recommend them. As a group of experienced women shooters, we are proud and grateful to call Copendero our home range. First-class people, first-class facility.

If you do the on line checking as far as paperwork required, process goes fast. Pricing is fair. The times I've been there, the range masters were observant but not invasive - I felt comfortable. The guns for sale - so Ive bought 3 from them in the last few months. All new and all ordered from their online site. They have a huge selection to choose from and the prices are great. Better than Academy and anyone the gun auction sites. This works great if you know what you want. So find what you want anywhere, other store or fun show and then check their prices. Delivery on all three was 3 days from date of order. No back order - if it says in stock, it's in stock. Also, watch for promo codes. I've saved 10% on two and another $25.00 off.

When you arrive you check in, sign waivers, pay (per person & per gun) and they'll give you a run down of where you want to go on the property. They make a note of you and the guns you've got, and a way to contact you. They have a variety of different ranges to chose from. They'll tell you where they are. The property is really cool outdoors area, and if you a familiar with firearms then this place is a dream for those looking to do their own thing.

I've been coming to American Shooting Centers for clays and range time for 25+ years, and until last Friday (12/11/25) around 11:30 a.m., it was a place I regularly recommended. We visited as a family across three generations: a grandfather (Navy veteran and lifelong East Texas hunter), his two sons, and his grandson who was learning to shoot his deer rifle. For roughly the first 1 hour and 45 minutes, everything was fine--one range officer on duty was professional, helpful, and encouraging. As we were wrapping up to head to the pistol range, a different range officer took over and the tone changed abruptly. He repeatedly reprimanded the Navy veteran in a confrontational, in-your-face manner over muzzle angle while the rifle was being carried away from the bench to be cased/put away. From my perspective, the muzzle was angled upward (not level or toward others), but not perfectly vertical. Even if the officer believed it needed correction, the delivery was unnecessarily aggressive. A few minutes later, as we were packing to leave, the officer escalated again and told the veteran he could not walk to his car with his gear until the "line was hot again," because the range was in ceasefire. When I reviewed ASC's posted rules afterward, I could not find anything stating that access to/from the shooting area is restricted during ceasefire in that way. Bottom line: the safety expectations may be valid, but the way they were enforced--especially toward an older customer and veteran--was disrespectful and ruined the experience. Our family won't be returning, and I can't recommend the range based on this incident.

Visited my parents this past weekend for July 4th so I wanted to check out a range I heard about…read morenear College Station. All of the other rifle ranges I've been to in the North Houston area have been absolutely dreadful so I was hoping for a change of pace. The Cawthon Cartridge Club (CCC) is located near Navasota, TX and about 20 miles from Aggieland. The range is on a huge swath of land, I reckon about +800 acres. They have a 200 yard range, numerous uncovered tactical bays with just a few steel targets, several pistol bays and a 5-stand area for shotgun. The entire area (including berms) was covered in a lush green grass that was freshly mowed. The roads were crushed limestone. The owner roves the grounds in a John Deere Gator UTV but other than that there were no Range Safety Officers. I was only interested in shooting long distance so proceeded to the rifle range. Newcomers are restricted to 500 yards and below until they quality with the owner. There were steel hanger targets every 50 yards and at the 500 yard line, there were about 8 different steel targets of varying sizes. The grass was very neatly trimmed and gently sloped downward. Beyond the 500 yard line were targets every 100 yards until 1200. The shooting area was up on a hill with a nice metal shade structure. There were some rickety old benches but I chose to shoot prone. There was a nice breeze blowing into our faces which really helped to beat the brutal heat and humidity. Out beyond the 1200 yard target was a farmer working a field in his tractor. The owner advised us of this beforehand and asked us to hold fire until he was out of sight. This was annoying as the farmer was constantly behind the target area; fortunately I had two people with me, one to spot my targets and the other to keep an eye on the farmer. Hopefully this is not a regular occurrence. I've never shot at a range this nice before. They didn't have as many steel targets as ETTS in Waxahachie but the grounds were much nicer. Membership is $750/yr but they let me pay only for the remainder of 2016. Guests are $25 each and you are normally restricted to two.

His ability to diagnose what you are doing wrong, and then correct it is what stands out in my mind. As an example, early on in the class I was dropping the front of the pistol in anticipation of trying to see what I had hit on the shot. He tried to correct me verbally, but I was not getting it. So, he got out his phone, videoed me while shooting, then played the video back to me. I was able to see what I was doing wrong, and correct. At another point in the class, I was not focusing correctly on the front site when pressing the trigger, and again, I was not getting the verbal correction. David pulled out a photo of a page with three images. 1st image was the rear site in focus, with the front and target blurred. 2nd was the rear and front blurred, with the target in focus. 3rd had the rear site and target blurred, with the front site in focus. I got it. David knows what he is doing, and is an excellent instructor.
