I dont know if anyone has gone yet or not but Shoot Smart on 35 near Keller is a great indoor range. Low price to shoot and a lounge to hang out in with snacks and TV while your waiting to shoot or if you just need a break from shooting. Highly recomended range.

It looks like a nice place with lots of activities and classes on their website.

Gained three pounds in the lounge while waiting on a lane...

LOL

I went there last week. Nice range, nice folks. I'll definitely be back to shoot there some more.

I'm a member... Glad I joined...
Took a chance when the place was still an empty metal building.

Nice folks. Still working out some kinks, but, I especially like the "private lane".
It's completely isolated from the rest of the place and they allow draw to fire on that one lane.

I live right across the highway and was checking it out for months before they actually opened... It turned out very nicely.

OT, but are you a designer/artist of some sort? Your username made me see a big color wheel in my head suddenly...

RGB! Very good..... Except that some would say that real designers work in CMYK.

And for print designers, I'd agree with you!

Im a mile and a half up the road from there I stoped by once place was packed. Looks like they really dont do sales much at all unless they added more counters sence I was there. they also seemed to haev a rather small rental counter.

Buddy of mine took his renewal there a few weeks ago, said it was a nice place, he gave it high marks.

I took my CHL there a few weeks back. Had a great instructor, ex cop now into private security, and nice class room. I would recomend to anyone also they offer several other classes to the public and have a female only CHL class.

They did tell me that they plan on expanding and adding more lanes but thaat would not be for a few month to possibly a year or so.

As someone who came out of the print design world into the web design world, I get disrespected by everybody.

Nope... Just a name I liked...

They have the space available to double in size.... But first they need to pay some bills and make sure they have the business to support the extra investment. I encouraged them to consider more than one additional isolated lane, if/when they do an expansion....

It's been crowded on weekends... I was by once during the week and they had 3-4 lanes going (out of 11) around lunch time on a Tuesday (IIRC it was a Tuesday)... The crowd during the weekend seemed to move through quickly, with not a long wait time, but the lanes were pretty noisy with all 11 lanes going at once.

They also started some interesting shooting leagues during the week *nights). haven't had a chance to check them out yet..

Overall.. I like the place pretty well and it's convenient and out of the weather (not too hot or too cold)...

Finally a nice range, operated by nice folks, in a nice area and just 2-3 miles from my house.

I went twice last week. The private lane was great to practice transitioning from AR to pistol, reloads and other drills.

I can't wait till I get home for good and can start joining some of their events and classes.
