First time at a range here in NYS and it wasn't too bad at all.... I see all the comments about the temperature, bathrooms and the range itself..... it's a gun/rifle range not a country club.... to me the 12 bucks I paid to shoot my rifle for over an hour was not that bad, the range officers and staff was very nice.... will be back for sure....

This place should be shut down. No proper ventilation or air conditioning in the range rooms. They will cram 10 people in one room even though all the other range rooms are empty. The hanger clips they use to hold targets are complete garbage and your target will falls off them frequently. The place is completely dilapidated from the bathroom to the lobby.

OLD & OUTDATED. Over 50 years old. Needs to be completely redone. No climate control, very hot in summer and very cold in the winter. Poor air quality and filtration. Very short range, ok for pistols. Not good for rifle shooting. The lighting is very poor. The county needs to overhaul the shooting range and fix it up. It's falling apart. The shooting counters are uneven n with scratch your firearms. So bring a mat or something to put down. The sad fact this range is one of the only indoor ranges in Nassau, Suffolk and new york city.

Questions & Answers

******** Attention guys the range is closed till April 3, 2019. Whoever is in charge of this range should have made sure it was posted online. *******

A E | Sep 23, 2019
Jon M | Sep 23, 2019

They were closed because of an incident where 2 employees hired a friend to clean the casings. It wasn't sanctioned by the county and the employees were fired. They had to do an investigation and then hire a real company to clean the range. Newsday reported on it. That's why they randomly closed for 2 weeks.

Do you have to have your personal firearms and can anyone shoot or do you have to be some form of law enforcement to shoot at the range?

Kaiheem O'Garra | Sep 23, 2019
Jon M | Sep 23, 2019

They do not supply firearms. If it's a pistol it has to be your own and you have to show your license. If it's a shotgun or rifle you or anyone else can shoot it as long as everyone is 18 or older. You DON'T have to be law enforcement to shoot at the range. It's open to the public.

Do you sell guns? How do you go about buying a gun for target shooting. I already have a rifle permit.

mikemaryje | Sep 23, 2018
Jon M | Sep 23, 2019

They don't sell guns and you only need a rifle permit in NYC. In the rest of New York state and Long Island you can buy and shoot anything that is not a handgun as long as you are not a convicted felon and 18 or over.

Bob Prisco | Sep 23, 2019
Jon M | Sep 23, 2019

They do not provide any firearms. They only sell ammo and targets. You can't shoot a pistol without a pistol license nor someone else pistol even if you do have a pistol license. If you are 18 or over you can buy and use any rifle or shotgun. However it would have to be purchased from a store.

You're technically not allowed to use your phone inside the range but might be able to sneak in a picture. Outside the range are windows looking in, where you can view the range. You can take pictures from there with no problem.

Can I bring my 13 year old son? Can he shoot my .22 rifle? How about my handgun?

michael bilello | Sep 23, 2018
M Solarfan | Sep 23, 2018

Be careful. In order for a 13 to fire a 22 he has to take their hunter safety class. It's a pain of a weekend but it's free I think. Hard to get a seat in class though. Supposedly if your a military officer you can get that waived. I was but they wouldn't accept that unless I was a qualified range officer.
