    Spent some time there yesterday. So nice to be in indoor comfort, push the button and the targets zoom to your desired shooting distance. Shoot, and push the button and here comes the target back to you. Really a great shooting experience. Very happy we bought the family membership.

    Facility is very nice, and so are the people..but the rule of one gun only out at a time on the bench is a difficult one for me. To say nothing about the fire hazzard it creates...take a firearm (expecially an AR for example..) put several mags though it and the barrel and gas tube are super hot. I'm then supposed to put it in a case to shoot another gun? And have a fire risk? That wastes my time to let it cool. Have an open bolt rule or a open slide rule. Taking guns in an out one at a time just slows down the fun.

    Other than that the facility is super nice...i dig the target system a lot..and their prices to shoot are in line with Freds and MSA. And the people are great. Will be very happy this facility is there in the winter.

    I wish you would have asked for clarification.

    We have made it very clear, especially with AR's, if the gun is hot then table it or lay it on your bag and let it cool. No need to bag a smoking hot gun.

    Why one gun at a time? Great question! For one, it keeps hazards low. We have been open 3 weeks now and I have personally seen 4 people trying to load 9mm into a 40. One tried loading 40 into a 9 (did not work lol) Multiple guns out lead to mistakes. Plus our Range Officers (myself included) have a lot to watch. Lastly INSURANCE! Need I say more? (you would love my insurance bill!)

    So please, next time bring your concerns/complaints to us. I would be more than happy to discuss.
