Great time at the steal bay. 4 stars only because the awning is metal and it causes a lot of reverb from the concussion. Never had to wear two ear pros before here. The rifle range does not have this problem.

Joined recently. Weekdays have very little traffic in mornings. Has ranges out to 500 yards (100/200/300/500 on long range) and a public range area at (my recollection) at 10/25/50/75/100). The public range has a machine for shooting clays, too. There are a couple of tactical ranges (approval and some orientation or training required before use), and range for .22's, for air rifles... and an archery range. The manager is a young man serious about what he does and - a very good thing - strict about following rules. I believe his name is Ben. You get a very thorough orientation, the rules are reviewed in detail, plenty of signage explaining the rules, and the manager encourages questions. If in doubt, ask, first - it is a gun range and run as one. I had been driving out to Rio Salado or Bob Foss (when previously open to public). This one has all one needs. I would encourage anyone interested to reach out and inquire, particularly those in downtown/south Phoenix/Laveen/Tempe/ Chandler areas.

I had a blast! I was able to shoot all of my tools in a fun environment. It was not crowded at all, which I loved. Romeo the manager was great thank you so much. Can’t wait to come back again.

Phoenix Rod and Gun Club is a top-notch outdoor range with a wide variety of options for members—pistol, rifle, rimfire, bows, tactical steel targets, and even a 200–500 yard long range. The location is super convenient, and the staff are always professional, knowledgeable, and ready to help. If you come across negative reviews, keep in mind they’re often from public day visitors who showed up when the public range was already full on a weekend, or from individuals who were asked to leave for violating safety rules. Members here are experienced, respectful, and always happy to assist if you need guidance. Ben is the manager very professional and helpful man Highly recommended if you’re looking for a safe, diverse, and well-managed shooting range in the area!
