Absolutely! Our talented and professional range team can assess your skill level and give support – if you aren’t sure about something, don’t be afraid to ask, that’s what we are here for!

When you visit the range for the first time, just head straight back towards the sign that says “Blackstone Range.” To your left, you will see a bunch of iPads and a TV. Please watch the safety video and complete the waiver. Once you have done that, head over to the range desk and our team will get you everything you need! All you need to bring is a government-issued photo ID and your excitement – we can rent or sell you everything else.

Once you are on the range, you will notice our safety officers out there in the red polo shirts. If you have any questions or concerns, they are there to help.

Still unsure about shooting for the first time? Schedule a Private Lesson with an Instructor to get you started.

Yes! We have everything you need for a fun and exciting range experience: ammunition, targets, firearms, hearing protection, and more. We also carry over 1,000 firearms and other great accessories in our 6,000 square foot retail store. If you desire anything we do not carry, please let us know – we will find it for you!

[/dipl_faq_page_schema_item][dipl_faq_page_schema_item faq_question=”Is there a minimum age to use the range?” question_custom_padding=”||7px||false|false” answer_custom_padding=”|20px||20px|false|false” _builder_version=”4.19.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||20px||false|false” custom_padding=”||15px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

1. Must be 18 or older to use the range unaccompanied.
2. Minors 14-17 years old must be accompanied and supervised (on the same lane) by a parent or legal guardian.
3. Minors 10-13 must attend and be certified by Blackstone’s Youth Firearms Safety Instruction program before being allowed to accompany a parent or legal guardian on the range.

Yes, of course! Women are not only welcome but are the fastest growing segment in our industry! Approximately 25% of shooters nationwide are women and at Blackstone 45% of our shooters are women. Shooting accurately is related to calmness, focus, and precision- which is why women are often times better natural shots than men!
