Will there ever be another range in Collin County?

[laszlo]

Backwoods - Gone.

Mckinney - Gone.

Will there ever be another range in Northern Collin County? I'm sick of having to drive 20 miles to shoot.

[Vic303]

Generally speaking, NO. Too much buildup in the McKinney area to get a range put in.

[gmckinl]

uh, Bullet Trap?

I know that I am bumping an old post... but it had the information I needed after my search.

I live off of Hwy 380.... less than 3 miles from the old abandoned Collin County Gun Range.
Unfortunately I moved in and they closed down 2 weeks later.
I am sad twice a day when I drive by and see the old sign.

I was going to post asking where are some ranges in the North Collin County area... and my question had already been answered.

[surprise_i'm_armed]

Check out the thread entitled "Shooting air rifles in North Texas"
for a possible alternative range.

I believe this site is in Collin County, but I am not sure.

I stumbled upon the post, it was under this section:
Board index ‹ General ‹ General Gun, Shooting & Equipment Discussion

[Vic303]

FWIW, I saw on an arfcom thread that APG is for sale...

[wford]

Its closing is so sad. I received my first pistol training there and shot many an IDPA match.

[garcia946]

has anyone heard what`s the price on APG? The sales price...
Just curious....

[597newbie]

$20 each time or $200 for a year membership (you will get a gate code).

LEO discounts and maybe military (call them and ask)

always check website to see if police training going on or if heavy rain will close sometime.
