If I could give 6 stars I would. First timer so a bit apprehensive, but they were INCREDIBLY nice and helpful. If they have gotten any negative reviews lately it wasn’t THEM. Maybe you should let them know you are new?? I did. It’s SIX DOLLARS!!! I was almost giddy. Yes I said “giddy.” Seriously, let them know you are a newbie. If you aren’t a newbie don’t be a jerk. Easy enough.

Awesome range, staff is very helpful and friendly. Pistol/rifle range is clean and has great target systems. Awesome range to bring a first time shooter too. The pistol/rifle range is more of a hybrid outdoor-indoor. You go inside the building, but the door is open, which is nice. Getting the safety card was very straightforward, and they also offer packs of 10 paper targets for $5. Also, it's very affordable, only $6/person. Way better than some fully indoor shooting ranges that charge $20-$35/person. Things you'll need to know before hand: - Don't forget ID (they also accept Delaware mobile ID) - They'll inspect ammo (website lists prohibited ammo types) - Bring eye and ear protection (obviously) - Clean your brass after you're done I'll definitely be going here more often.

I took my hunter safety here like 10 years ago but I just recently went to the pistol range my first time. The hours are different than what is posted online but the front desk helped me squeeze into the last ticket time. They sell targets and tape at the desk. You bring your own eyes and ears and ammo, pay 6$ for the range slot and head over. They grab your ID, safety card number, check your ammo and gun and you are off to the races. They have the nice retractable range system so sighting in my new gun was easy. Tidy up your spent shells at the end and it was a good time.

Place is nice, cheap, everyone seems super friendly. Anyone who reviewed this poorly is just reckless with guns and got a talking to. If you know how to safely handle a firearm, the staff stays off your back. Will be going back often.
