I come here bi-weekly, the staff is great, friendly with reasonable prices for range and rentals. The range itself is fine with a birm for up to .223 and 12 gauge. Distance 25-30 yards not bad at all if you just want to shoot pistols.

I've been coming to Shore for over 15 years. It's conveniently located and the pricing reflects that convenience, yet is still semi-fair. Myles is the best. He has a deep understanding of firearms and puts customer service always first. He deserves to be commended. Doc is also a great employee and greets everyone who walks in the door with a smile.
Been going to shore for years and have been very impressed by the changes made over the past year or so! Mr.Tweedt the new owner has really done well at raising the bar of service that this shop provides! People are very friendly, everything is clean and organized, classes have been absolutely fantastic! If you stopped going to shore because of a bad experience a few years ago, give them another chance! I swear to you it is like being in a completely different LGS. Things are smooth with FFL transfers, people are quite friendly and knowledgeable, selection is great for being so close to the city, I can't say enough good things about this shop!
Under new Management. Mr. Easterday taught a private class for myself and 5 friends, some experienced, some beginners. We learned so much and felt very safe. He makes a serious activity fun and comfortable. Would rec!
I recently completed the Intro to Handgun course at Shore Galleries and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The instructors were patient, detail-oriented, and made sure I felt completely comfortable as someone brand new to firearms. By the end of the session, I had the knowledge and confidence to head into the range on my own. I also used Shore Galleries for an FFL transfer on my first revolver, and the process was fast, simple, and handled with care. Don’t let the older reviews mislead you. Shore Galleries has been under new ownership since April 2025, and Erik has done an incredible job revitalizing the store and its training programs.
