My wife and I went there to shoot one afternoon. Staff seemed friendly enough. It was clean, they let us shoot our own ammo and collect the brass afterwards. They had rental guns too.

definitely the nicest - ventilation, lighting, safety, floor to ceiling barriers (clear) between lanes - indoor range that I've been to; nice enough that I joined. While I prefer outdoor ranges that's a problem for me physically (for now).

There is always an RO present and they have 27 lanes broken into 3 physically separate bays which keeps the noise down. You can shoot up to 30.06 rifle - keep in mind that it is limited to 25 yrds.

Also, the target movers are programmable and you can have the RO show you the built-in programs which will turn the target sideways, move the target and then turn it to face you for a set amount of time and then repeats at different distance. Various options for distances, times, etc.

You can shoot your own ammo (no extra fee) and collect your brass (behind the firing line only); if you're going to collect your brass tell the RO in advance or it will be swept to forward of the firing line. Only limits that I know of are no steel core, tracers, etc.

You buy their targets or can use your own (subject to a 75 cent/target fee).

If you are a member you can also reserve a lane in advance so even if they're busy you won't have to wait to shoot.

Pretty nice assortment of rental guns including a semi-auto MP5 and a Tavor.
