About The Place To Shoot
The Place To Shoot is an indoor pistol range in Portland, Oregon, where reviewers describe handgun practice and instruction in an indoor setting. One reviewer calls it an indoor pistol range that also offers classes, and another describes the indoor facilities as a place to see how tight a group you can shoot. Opinions on the building itself differ: one visitor describes "an old school feel, like it had been there forever," while another reviewer calls the range outdated.
Beginners are a steady theme in the reviews. Several reviewers say they were new to guns when they took a beginner handgun class, and the Basic Handgun One class is named by more than one of them. Others describe a first visit to an indoor gun range or their first time handling a gun, and a UK visitor says their two teenagers had their first experience on a shooting range here.
Gun rentals in Portland, OR come up in the reviews as well. One reviewer mentions a rental during a visit, and another says that when they asked what the rental options were, they were asked to name guns until they picked one the range had in the back. Several reviewers also report that the range expects shooters to buy its ammunition and targets and that bringing your own ammunition carries a per-box charge, and they disagree about whether the cost is reasonable.
Friendly dogs at the entrance are mentioned in several reviews. For handgun target practice and beginner classes, The Place To Shoot is an indoor gun range in Portland, Oregon.

Great place to shoot :)
By the time I was done shooting mostly my ammo, (I bought 1 box of 9mm) and like 10 paper targets,y entrance fee it was $81. You are forced to buy their ammo or get upcharged on your own ammo up to their ~%20 ammo price when comparing 9mm. You have to buy their targets also. So around $20 a box of 20. I mostly likely won't be back again...
Great spot. Reasonable prices. The staff and dogs were friendly.
Friendly staff, really good facilities, and decent prices. As a more experienced shooter, I really enjoyed shooting at The Place. They were also supportive of my girlfriend, who had never fired a gun before in her life, with tips on improving from the basics. Definitely worth a visit.
We had the most amazing experience! We're from the UK and my two teenagers had their first experience on a shooting range. Everyone went above and beyond to ensure they had a brilliant time whilst staying safe. Highly recommend!
We showed up with no appointment or experience for my birthday and was expecting to come back after scheduling, but Larry was so incredibly kind and patient, provided thorough lessons, instruction, and guidance for us the entire time and so supportive. We were so nervous and complete beginners, but had an absolutely wonderful experience all thanks to Larry! We’ll be back and bring friends!
Larry was so kind! We came in without an appointment and he and the owner allowed us to take the beginners class. Larry was so kind and understanding since my friend and I were beginners. Super encouraging and informative and really nice! :)
You can’t bring rifles here but I still had a great time with my new Glock. There is a fee per 50 rounds of ammo if you bring your own, but it’s not that bad for a quick afternoon practice day. Customer service was great, really friendly people just happy to have shooters in the lanes. Amenities are a bit old school but that’s part of the charm. It’s a friendly small business, expect that and you’ll have a good time.
This place is fantastic the people who work there are super nice and it's a good price
Great place to practice with incredibly friendly staff. Always has the ammo I need on hand. Would recommend arriving at least an hour before close as the range closes a half hour before the lobby.
