Chapter 6 — Indoor Shooting

What Is an Indoor Shooting Range?

Unlike an outdoor shooting range, an indoor shooting range allows you to shoot firearms in a safe and controlled environment while indoors. Many shooters prefer to shoot indoors because they are protected from the elements and it’s great for target practice.

How Do Indoor Shooting Ranges Work?

Indoor shooting ranges are meticulously designed for an optimized indoor shooting experience that is both safe and exciting. Shooters stand on one side of the range with the targets downrange. Using a variety of firearms, shooters will take aim and fire at the targets while wearing protective gear. Bullet traps behind the targets are designed to stop and capture the bullets, preventing any chance of ricochets. Indoor shooting can be a thrilling experience for first-time shooters and gun aficionados alike.

What Are Safety Requirements at Indoor Shooting Ranges?

Before your shooting experience at any indoor shooting range, you will be instructed on the shooting range rules and the basics of firearms. The experienced shooting instructors at The Range 702 in Las Vegas can help you feel more comfortable and confident before ever picking up a firearm. You will also be required to wear protective gear, including goggles and ear protection while shooting at the range.

How Much Does an Indoor Shooting Range Cost?

Indoor shooting range prices for your shooting experience really depends on a lot of factors. For example, did you bring your own firearm and rounds or will you need to rent one and purchase ammunition? Do you only want to shoot one gun or different types of guns? Do you want to book a specific shooting experience with a group or prefer to do target shooting alone? All these things factor into how much it will cost you.
