Re: New Gun Range in North San Antonio

I may have to check Blackhawk out, it sounds good. It is a long drive for me though, I live about 5 minutes from Bracken Range but won't make the mistake of going there again.

Appreciate the heads up. I've heard of it, but it would be about the same distance (maybe slightly less) than Blackhawk where I am a yearly member and much less expensive than Community and no limit on weapons. It too is wide open, unsupervised (they supply (2) silhouette targets and no objection to your use of paste on), friendly, helpful when needed and seldom crowded when I go - early mid-morning. I'm pistol range only which also allows tactical shotguns, holstering and rapid fire. I always go during the week and avoid weekends anywhere. Pays to be your own boss. :thumbs2:

My last visit, guy in next lane was testing his new Thompson sub-machinegun - made for an interesting day. :mrgreen: That was one heavy sucker.

Re: New Gun Range in North San Antonio

Hopefully their non member prices aren't to high once they open to use the range and they will have a full retail store as well, either way we can use a good range and store on this side of town and Lone star Handgun is a great group. I used them to take my CHL class and one of their defensive handgun classes and they are real professional, knowledgeable and have good customer service which I haven't found anywhere else around here.
