Sarasota County Gun Range @ Knights Trail Park

Gun range overall is nice. I like the aspect of it being outside. However, there’s one little older guy that works there that made my experience dreadful. Like dude why are you yelling at me while I’m trying to adjust my scope. If you come here make sure you stay away from that little man. Go to shoot straight or take aim if you want to be treated like family and not feel judged.

Awesome Gun range! And they absolutely have the best staff!

Great outdoor experience. No membership needed and the lighting couldn't be better.

Great for outdoor shooting. They have places for various shooting of both pistols and rifles. Staff is friendly and tough...wouldn't have it any other way to keep everyone safe. They have a frangible ammo area but haven't tried yet, may do next time.

I try this place out once every 5-7 years (this was my 6th time) to see if my opinion of this place changes, and it didn't. There always just seems to be 1 range officer who has his head up his butt for some reason. Its like they don't understand a pistol wont fire if no one is around to pull the trigger unless its a p320 but even then someone has to be around to drop it. I understand the need for safety but their kind of safety is like a gun with a cable lock, inside a locked case, instead of a gun safe, inside of another gun safe, and then finally inside of another whole other gun safe. Anyone else I go I am NEVER approached by a range officer for safety except here. Its ridiculous. The fact you cant double tap is WILD. A person should be able to practice double taps for self defense situations. People need to learn how to properly control recoil and get sights back on target faster than 2 seconds. I understand no rapid fire but double taps, come on. Do yourself a favor go some where else you will have a better time. I will try again in another 5-7 years.

Nice outdoor pistol and rifle range. Safety first attitude from the RSOs.
