About Garland Public Shooting Range

Garland Public Shooting Range is an outdoor shooting range in Garland, TX with sections for different kinds of guns. Reviewers describe pistol bays, a rifle range and a shotgun range used for clay shooting; one reviewer gives the rifle distances as 50 and 100 yards, another mentions a 100-yard outdoor lane, and one reviewer says handguns, rifles or shotguns can all be shot there. One reviewer mentions skeet at the range, another notes two options for shotguns, and one calls the range good for precision shooting.

One reviewer mentions renting weapons at this location, and two reviewers say ammunition, targets, gear and accessories can be bought on site. One reviewer says the range suits testing reloads and sighting in rifles, and appreciates the screens that separate the lanes so spent brass does not hit your face. Several reviewers report a rule against full metal jacket ammunition.

Reviewers describe how the range runs: one mentions PA instructions for hot and cold range time, another says cease-fires come about every 20 minutes and give your gear time to cool, and one says everything is manual and runs at a human pace. One reviewer notes there is no echo like at an indoor range. Three reviewers say they have been coming for ten years or more, one of them since the 90s and another for 40 years.

Most reviewers describe friendly, helpful or patient staff, while six describe rude, curt or disrespectful treatment from staff or range officers. Several reviewers also say the target stands and mounts are worn. For outdoor pistol, rifle and shotgun shooting in Garland, reviewers describe separate sections, a pro shop and, in one review, weapon rentals.

It's fine, the safety is a little loose here and their order of operations is odd, if it's your first or second time shooting I would recommend bringing an experienced friend or going somewhere else. They have a bizarre rule saying that "full metal jackets" aren't allowed, but every modern center fire cartridge has a full metal jacket... I think they mean steel core and I've seen many members on their rifle range shooting jacketed rifle ammunition, which contributes to why I (amongst other things) I assessed the safety enforcement to be laxed. This wouldn't be my first choice for a range. edit: There's a nonresponsive reply attached to my review confirming this very strange and unique rule that they have.

Everyone including Kevin were great. Very clear instructions over the PA system for hot and cold range time. Can’t beat the price for all day if you want to test your reloads and sight in rifles. Also appreciate the screens separating the lanes so the spent brass does not hit your face. Feature lacking in most outdoor ranges. Will definitely be back and recommend to everyone.
