I'm a new shooter, this is just the second range that I've experienced, and a majority of reviews for AmChar aligns with my first time visit; any encounter I had with staff came across as friendly, genuine, patient, and informative. My visit was on a Saturday afternoon, so check-in did take a while, but was well worth the wait. I suggest that any new patron of this business set aside roughly 30 minutes to get signed up and to be put in their system, after watching a short video about range safety. The technology for the range is very easy to use, and I love that they have a hand washing station for when you're done (it's the little things for me). And considering that this was once a private business for law enforcement, AmChar has some pretty nice inventory which in my opinion seems affordable, so far. I'm looking forward to many visits in the future, especially this coming Tuesday for ladies night, which I have already signed up for.

First Visit to AmChar for a range session. Nice looking store. They seemed very busy, but a bit disorganized. I believe they were having a computer issue which could explain the slow service. Prior to my visit, I reviewed the range rules. There is no prohibition, on rate of fire. There is however, a "no rapid fire" message on the range door that I missed, as someone opened the door for me, as I entered the range. After a few strings of safe, rapid fire downrange all on target. I was approached and asked politely to leave. No warning about the policy. Just you broke our rules you have to go. Not the best customer experience to say the least. The likelihood of me returning to this establishment is zero. Would not recommend, although the staff was polite, I just wish it were handled better. I would suggest making the "no rapid fire" rules more prominent. It's very easy to miss the signage. I hope other customers don't have the same experience. Personally, I do want this type of business to succeed. They can do better.

Questions & Answers

Are yall open? I called 30 times all business hrs yesterday on friday the 9th. Same as today it's Saturday no answer from the store or range! This is pretty aggravating!

I agree. If you can’t pick up the phone due to being busy that’s one thing and slightly understandable. However I’ve called 3 times, the phone was picked up and I was hung up on each time. Inexcusable. Busy or not. Unprofessional and disgusting.

Are shotguns allowed on your range?

Hi Sonny, thanks for thinking of us. Unfortunately, shotguns cause damage to our indoor equipment so we can’t use them on the range. We allow pistols and rifles up to .308 caliber if you’d like to tune your skills on those!

I see that this range is for police, first responders, & military, does that include their family members? My husband is a combat vet & we were curious if I'd be allowed with him.
