They must have passed their occupancy inspection. I just got an email saying they will be opening soon. They will be inviting groups of members to come in in the order you signed up, to get their membership cards and a safety brief.

I already did. It's more discreet than my regular range bag.

I picked up my badge and took the opportunity to fire off 50 rounds today. I'm looking forward to spending a lot of time here.

I stopped in late this afternoon and had the range all to myself but, it looks like they were busy judging from the amount of empties on the floor.

Was there for an hour or so tonight.
Nice range. Was by myself but there were thousands of pieces of brass on the floor.
Cigar lounge is done and peaceful, too. Half dozen or so people hanging out in the club room but only saw two other shooters--one right before me and one right after.
Small targets are $1.00. Creeper size silhouettes are $2.00. Plus tax. You can bring your own.
The diamond plate lane dividers make me feel warm n tingly inside.
Will go back again some time tomorrow with another range toy.

Stopped by after work today and picked up my badge. Unfortunately didn't have time to use the range but looking forward to it soon!

I went in a couple days ago and picked up my badge and locker key. Took the time to drop 50 rounds down range and get a feel for shooting indoors (which I haven't done in many years). I like it! It'll be a nice place to go a couple times a week during lunch and keep honing in my pistol skills. I haven't shot at paper in a long time, so it's interesting to see how my groups are. I have always been a "minute of steel plate" kinda shooter. Need to bring those groups in a little and this range will be the perfect way for me to do that!

Interesting bright white floor. I wonder what it will look like in a year after it's been shot 500 times.

Looks nice. I like the lines on the floor for distance.

Lightbulb moment today, all the pieces came together. Not sure which piece started putting it together for me but I wanted to check this place out so thought id stop in tonight. Earlier in the day some facebook stuff led me to Andy. Well Andy has a brother named Mike. Didn't realize they had partnered for a retail beverage spot. Mike and I are friends from way back and enjoyed a nice tour of his latest venture (Glacier Gun Club) this evening.
Its a neat spot folks, I like what hes put together and how its growing. Great atmosphere for an end of day hang out before home or a mid day paper perforation to relieve stress. Not necessarily a place I need for shooting ( I can shoot out the front door or the back door anytime I like) but lots of city folk, or anyone will be well served by this "facility"
As I would expect the place is top notch and look forward to spending some time there.
If this sounds like a place for you, check it out soon the membership roster is quickly heading towards its cap
