Love this place! You will know you are in an unique place when you hit the parking lot. Once inside you will see a family owned shop with fishing, kayaking, diving, skiing, and a gun range all under one roof. The employees are very nice and helpful! I drive an hour on a regular basis to get to Bill Jackson's. Cool place!

Great gun shop! Good selection of items and staff are all friendly. Russ installed new irons sights and a Trijicon RMR on my Glock 19, his work was quick and professional.

This past Tuesday 4-5-22 I visited Bill Jackson for the first time to use their shooting range. From the minute I walked in I felt SPECIAL. The front desk person was very nice and brought me over to the shooting range. I was quite nervous because it has been almost 50 years since I fired a pistol. I met a very nice man named Ross who guided me every step of the way and answered all my questions. He was super. The range itself was perfect. Six lanes very clean and well kept with the utmost in safety!!! If you want the perfect place to shoot and FIND EVERY POSSIBLE thing for outdoor entertainment 👍👍👍
