About Shooting Sports Academy

Shooting Sports Academy is an indoor shooting range in Monroe, CT, and the reviews describe both handgun practice and firearms instruction there. One reviewer calls it a "great range for lane time or for taking classes," and the other reviews bear out both halves of that line, with some visitors coming to shoot and others coming to train. One reviewer took their daughter there for her first shooting experience.

Classes come up again and again. Reviewers mention a defensive pistol class, a Skill Builder series that runs three sessions over three weeks and covers fundamentals, movement and low light, and a four-week Women's Training Tuesdays course. One reviewer describes an online course followed by an in-person session, and other reviewers took a private lesson or a one-hour lesson. Another reviewer likes that the drills from the skill building courses can be repeated later. Several reviewers say the owner also teaches.

Gun rentals in Monroe, CT are mentioned in a number of reviews, from pistols for rent to a selection of rentals that helped one reviewer decide on a purchase. One reviewer rented a gun after taking the firearms safety course, and a visitor who arrived without eye and ear protection was supplied with ear protection and safety glasses. One reviewer calls the business a range, a training facility and a gun store.

For handgun practice, classes and gun rentals, Shooting Sports Academy is an indoor range in Monroe.

I have been going to this rage for a while since the facility itself is good and offers great access, however the charging fees seem to be arbitrary and they also charged me with a fee for allegetly shooting to high months before the last time I have been there. Sometimes they act that they are doing you a favor. Anyways I will go somewhere else!

We really enjoyed it. Our instructor explained how to handle a gun and was always there for safety. And he was really nice. We would come here again

I am very happy with the training I received from Mahesh. Although I recently received my permit, I still needed help becoming more comfortable with handling and loading. Mahesh took his time and provided clear instruction with care and patience. I truly appreciated his guidance and will definitely return for additional training.

Mahesh is the best instructor I could’ve asked for. He was very thorough, he gave me instructions on how to be a better shot and some tips on how to stay on target and how to also avoid legal problems. Very professional and very helpful

Defensive Pistol Class was very well run. The instructor tailored the lessons to our experience and aptitude, making the corrections much more beneficial. I left with a list of skills to work on and look forward to the next class I take.

I’ve been going to SSA for a little while now and have had nothing but good experiences. It’s a safe, nonchaotic environment, which was very important to me when choosing a range to go to. Mahesh has been very helpful and he usually has a fun little conversation to have whenever I see him.
