Went here for a family birthday. While the staff was generous with our situation (our reason for being there was a party and the gentleman is a cancer survivor) the prices are quite steep. Also this is a Cash Only place. Motorized target lines and illuminated shooting stations help with reloads. Ventilation was a couple of fans that really didn't help out with the heat situation. Also there's an abnormally large amount of Arab and black themed shooting targets in the front lobby. Rental packages for guns starts at $122.00(+/-) So make sure you bring your own equipment.
I remember when this place was brand new in the 1970s It was called Briggs. It was a beautiful place with new blue rugs, and nice people who knew how to take care of their customers. The ventilation was just great because every thing was all new at the time. Many years later when these new people took over, I couldn't believe that this was the same place, it was so despicable looking. I remember how bad the place was, so dirty and it smelled like cats piss. The ventilation was so bad, that I got heartburn in the few times that I went there. The people were so rude and obnoxious. The rugs were filthy and had tears in the carpet. That when you were shooting, you had to watch your footing. All they did was use duct tape to fix the rugs. It's amazing how long these people have stayed in business. They should have been closed down a long time ago. I don't think they knew how serious it was with poor ventilation. Your breathing in lead, which can cause respiratory problems for some people. Even the lighting was so bad, that at times I thought my eyes were going bad. I would never recommend this dump to anybody, save your money.

Was very weary after reading reviews, but went because it's close, expecting the worst. Not sure about pricing because I'm new to this sport but didn't seem to bad. Smelt fine, and The staff were extremely helpful and stayed to teach my girlfriend and I how to use the guns safely and properly. Fun afternoon date, bring cash spent $180 for everything
Terrible Horrible Dirty place. The staff is Disrespectful, Rude and just plain Nasty! The Range fee, Ammo and Targets are way over priced. Basically you are getting Ripped off if you buy anything from them. The Range itself is falling apart! With all the Money they Rip you off for they should fix the Range. The place smells like a Dump! Sorry but I have to tell it like it is. First and last time I'll go there. I'll stick with the Calverton Range.
The place is fine. Bring your own ammo and the prices will be very reasonable. For those complaining about the cleanliness of the place, I would say that a) it's well ventilated which is the most important thing (no lead poisoning) and b) you're there to shoot firearms, not stay overnight on vacation.
