| Has anyone been there? I'm going to check it out either today or tomorrow. I'm thinking of becoming a member. |

$500 for a year membership, and you still have to pay $20 every time you go? Still have to pay for firearm rentals if you're a member. Only two shooters per lane. You can only use their ammo. Ammo overpriced. If you have a "Class III" weapon you have to have your paperwork there with you. Have to demonstrate competency to shoot your firearms to Range Officer. No excessive rapid fire--on a machine gun range. Can only use approved targets. If $500 doesn't bother you, go for it. All the female employees are fine as hell. They're friendly, not stuck up. The whole facility is clean as hell.

| I have toured the place too. IMO it looks like it is set up more for people looking to experience shooting a Machine Gun, not so much of your typical shooting range. I think it is great that someone took a chance to set up a range like that. Is it a place I would frequent? Probably not. But if it gets people who would otherwise not be able to shoot machine guns, then great. I hope they are successful, but probably will be short lived. If you have never shot a machine gun, they have pretty good selection to rent, and it is cheaper than buying one, much less as many different ones you can shoot there. |

It is my understanding that they require their ammo because their ammo is all frangible which allowed them to make a much less expensive range. I agree with the prior poster who said that this range is not meant for regular shooters, rather it is targeted at those people going for the once in a lifetime shooting adventure and are willing to pay for it.
