Target Shooting and Trap Shooting:
Why Us?
We'll teach you the proper way to handle a firearm.
We'll introduce you to some of the most popular firearms.
Ever wonder what it would be like to shoot a long range sniper riffle?
Curious about those pistols you've seen FBI agents carrying in the movies?

Firearm Selections:
Ruger .22 caliber (pistol)
Springfield .45 caliber 1911(pistol)
Browning 12 gauge BPS (shotgun)
Mauser 8mm (bolt action riffle) 
Coming soon: AR-15

How it works:
Before shooting any of the firearms we'll give you an overview on each of them and a quick safety course.
We'll start by shooting the pistols at the "tin can" range.   
Then we'll go to the trap station to shoot the shotgun. 
Lastly we'll shoot the high powered bolt action riffle at the 40 yard tin can or 100 yard range (shooter's choice). 

At each station well show you how to properly load and shoot the weapon.  Then you will load and fire away. 

With safety as our main concern at no time will anyone hand a loaded weapon to another person.

Fees:
2 person minimum -$235 ($117.50/person)
4 person group -$385 ($96.25/person)
6 person group -$540 ($90/person)
