Information for Instructors that want to use our Range

Thank you for your interest in using our range.

Trae and Julie created this range with Instructors in mind. We have been there and know what it is like to find a range to be able to really teach the good stuff at, and to try to make a successful business instructing. 

Our goal is to provide a safe place for everyone to learn about firearms, shooting, and safety. We want everyone to have a positive experience, so we can help the 2A community and gun industry grow. 

We want to be able to keep our rates affordable, so you can also have affordable rates.
