My brother lives close and bought a gun there and wants me to go shoot at the indoor range there Monday as he has free time 10 hours or so.
Anyone know about the place?

Cost is $10, handguns only and no rapid fire.

Cool place in general.... a little pricey though.

I have never seen a range that is less than $75 a year or $10 a visit.

Only 4 lanes, so hopefully it's not busy when you get there. Also, if you don't have a CHL, they'll make you check in any firearms and put a trigger lock on them. Facility is kept in pretty good shape though it can get hot in there during the summer.

Otherwise, it's a pretty good range. And the price ($75 per year) is what makes it.

I avoid it on weekends, but it's great for a stop after work.

 

[Scott.Thornton]

Yep we love our 100 a year family membership. Good range for some paper punching.

You can open carry and they wont touch it.

I have been a few times... It gets hot in there during the summer, No A/C in the range for some reason. It was pretty cool the few times I went.

Glad I moved to slidell, only a few mins from honey island 7 bucks to shoot all day in a pretty nice outdoor range with a place to shoot skeet.

The OP seems to be asking specifically about their range, not their merchandise.

Yes the range. Plans were 1911 ACE bit in 45acp trim, Ruger Black Hawk Super "in Bisley" with both 45acp and 45 Colt cylinders, S&W 29 classic 8 3/8" and the Sig 522
But ya'll say no rifles... rules are rules so i called and asked but they were closed. The girk said the range goy was out till 9am and call back.
To me the 44 mag or 357 etc would do more to the back stop than a 22lr rifle would. I wanted to get the scope close even if just 50' since it is off right now. It does fold up into a pistol lol

Range at Bass Pro Denham Springs

Great pistol range. Very well run. I shoot there almost exclusively and have been a member since they opened. Mornings are better. It gets crowded after lunch sometimes.

 

[PrairieCajun]

Reason it is hot in summer, the range was built out of two box trailers welded togerter and the ventilation is all "down the tube" if you will. The air is moved away from the shooter and down the iron throat at the receiving end of the lanes. This removes powder and lead vapors from the shooter, but doesn't make for perfectly comfy temps.

 

[340six]

Thanks for all the replies my guess is they will just blanket all rifles so even the 22lr is out. Easier for them to say none than pick and choose.
I will just bring My MKII or some other 22lr i have. But will call and ask in the morn.

 

[340six]

Well the range was clean nice and good for 4 lanes.
Range guy was nice, was not hot and had plenty air passing threw

Nick's Shooting Ranger In Garyville...

I have never seen a range that is less than $75 a year or $10 a visit.

Nick's Shooting Range prices are as follows: (They back your statement up.)

SHOOTER = No money up front (no membership) $18/visit

MARKSMAN = $65 down and $5/visit *

EXPERT = $175 down come and $0/visit *

* Spouse add-on = $25

( I have the Marksman membership there )

 

[returningliberty]

I shoot there a lot. Have family membership. Usually its very open but on weekends it's pretty packed. Be prepared to wait at least a half hour on really busy days. Range is clean and well built. RO's aren't very practical but at least they're nice (I constantly get harassed to let them shoot my guns).

 

[jmaroon]

i have a pasture and a dirt pile and it's free..

 

[Homoudont]

Went there for the first time. Not a bad place to go shooting considering the wife and kids can get some shopping while I am wasting money throwing lead down range. Like most have already pointed out cheap, clean, small.
