Winchester Gallery off 820 and Lancaster in Ft.Worth.
Heater and A/C
Nice group of guys working there.
Most times there is a gun smith there.

I prefer to shoot at our private range in Jacksboro, but I have been seen a few times scrounging free brass at Alpine. Make friends with the RO's and ur gtg.

The Winchester gallery gun store is great. The guys working in there seem to really know their stuff, and are more than happy to help you with your gun buying decisions (without doing a hard sell)

The range itself we have started avoiding The guys working in there don't have the most pleasent personalities:)
My wife was down there the other week and some guy got hit in the arm with a piece of shrapnel, was bleeding all over the place. The guy working the counter didn't give a crap.
I understand they don't want to be seen to be accepting responsibility, but damn....show a bit of compassion!

I had the same opinion but once they get to know you and you them, they are some of the nicest guys you will ever meet.
They deal with so many idiots everyday they just appear cold.
I got hit there by a shooters gun that was shaving and gave me a nasty cut. Dave had the 1st aid kit out like I was one of the family.
I'm in there 2 -4 times a month and you can tell the regular shooters because they are always glad to see ya and always take time to BS with you.

Default Dallas Fort Worth Gun Range List (including 2 FMJ friendly outdoor ranges)

I am about to move to the Mansfield/Grand Prairie area and with some searches and such I am thinking I will probably end up shooting at Alpine Range, I am planning to get out there in about three weeks.

So where do other DFWers like to shoot?

Garland Gun Range is my hands down favorite but if I need to shoot magnetic surplus full metal jacket Gibson's Outpost in Mesquite (45 min drive for me) and Magnum in Sanger only places to go. Non magnetic full metal jacket allowed at indoor ranges.

Hi Guys,

traveling thru DFW soon, was wondering which outdoor range does not restrict on rapid succession of fire for either rifle or handgun. In other words, does not require 2 to 3 seconds between each shot.

Thanks for any help!

Sorry to dig up an older thread but, yeah I drove by there a couple of weeks ago and thought, damn this is pretty much in the middle of a neighborhood. Didn't have a chance to stop and throw some boolets though.

What kind coin is it? I think I read somewhere that it was like six bucks an hour?

Mostly my backyard. But if not there, Tom Bean, The River Lease or just about anywhere else I do not have to deal with ignorant range Nazis.
