Slide Fire Range in Dallas

[Hammy]

I'm looking for a range that will let me fire my slide fire AR (223). I have searched though the DFW ranges in the sticky with not much luck.

I recall being told about a range on the south east of town that required a yearly membership that would let you do full auto. But I have lost their card and cant find them on the web.

If there are no places in Dallas, where does anyone go to shoot full auto?

Thanks!

Find a friend with some land? I'm sure you will have a hard time find a place to shoot full auto or bumpstocks.

Are you talking about the range in Ferris, south of Dallas, east of I-45 and west of the Trinity River? If so, the website is tdsa.net. Ask for Len. Real friendly and knowledgeable guy. According to their website, annual membership is currently at $300/yr. When I was a member a few years ago, I think it was $200 or $250/yr, though.

Len uses a mix of berms and recycled tires as backstops. Not sure if it's because it's close to the Trinity, but there used to be a lot of mosquitoes at the range. Nothing some bug spray won't fix, though. At the time I was a member, full-auto was allowed, but I think you had first check with Len before you could shoot it. Could be wrong about that, though.

Not the prettiest private range I've been to, but I really enjoyed my time there when I was a member. It's one of the few that didn't have a waiting list and would allow you to join after interviewing with Len, or at least it was back then. I let my membership lapse a few years ago and have been thinking of re-joining.

I know I've rented full-autos in Dallas, at that range near Love Field that burned a while back. Look for indoor ranges that rent full-auto firearms. They should be open to Slide-Fire use. Note I said should; no guarantees.

BTW - If there was a "Greater Metro Area Gun Ranges" thread like we have in Houston, you'd be able to look up the info you need quick as a wink.

I was at the Frisco Gun Club one day when a guy was there with an old Thompson 45 MG. He blew threw about 10 clips while I was there. I didn't ask any questions, but that's a place to start.

Thanks everyone. The one is Ferris is what I was looking for.

Frisco gun club is good to go. I've gone in there multiple times with only NFA items and no one has said a word to me

There's a guy South of Venus building a full auto outdoor range now. Hasn't been making too much progress with all the mud lately, but I imagine it will be open this summer.

I've met the guy before and I'd be willing to wager slide fire won't be an issue with him.
