If I could give them 1 star I would but I was treated horribly today by the range manager in the office. I was looking for a new range and thought I'd check these guys out. On the membership page of the website it clearly states word for word "ATTENTION LADIES!!!! Every Friday range time is free for women. No membership required! - THE ONLY EXCEPTION TO THE MEMBERSHIP POLICY" I then called to double check that this was for real. The person I talked to seemed super nice. I was sold on this place already. He confirmed that it was correct, every Friday is free without membership for ladies only. I asked if I needed to sign up or go with someone else. He said nope, just show up between 9am - 5pm and check in at the office and you're good to go. A friend and I both checked it out today and the way I was treated today was completely unacceptable on so many levels. Two men checked in before us and they were treated pretty harshly as well. The man who said he was the "manager" told us that we had to have a membership. When I showed him what was on his website he said he didn't care and he wasn't going to let just any lady off the street into one of his classes. He said "have you ever even been to a range?" ... He assumed because I was a lady that I didn't know what I was doing. Completely ridiculous! HONOR WHATS ON THE WEBSITE! He then told my friend and I that we could get a membership or leave. He was completely rude. I went with an intention of joining if I had a good experience today, I left with a horrible taste in my mouth. I asked for the owner and he wouldn't give the info. I can't send an email on the website it's not working, there's number on the website where I couldn't leave a message because the mailbox was full and when I call the other number listed I get the same grumpy manager. I wonder if the owners even know he treats people like this. I will NOT be joining 340 Defense and will never recommend it to any of my friends because of this experience with poor management.

Went there to do basic handgun training. The instructors (from Vienna Arsenal) did an outstanding job training and instructing beginners like me how to properly handle a handgun. They are very knowledgeable and passionate at what they do, …

Best Range in the area in my opinion. The staff members like Pete, John, and Spencer who are very knowledgeable and professional make it what it is. If you want to shoot from 25 yards out to 300 yards on 4 independent ranges at the facility then this is the place for you, from a yearly member. Highly recommend!

You can rent guns and buy ammo there. The fees are a little high for ammo though. You have to purchase their ammo if you use their gun. They also offer training.

Do you have to become a member or can you shoot per day cost
