Range: The range trip will be scheduled on a different day and can be conducted in 1:1 or group sessions. It requires 2 hours of range time as per DC code so groups (2+) are best. Larger groups can be arranged (4-6 people) as well but will require additional coordination.
Fees: There are no additional range fees for the live-fire, unless you decide to rent a firearm and buy ammunition if you do not have your own or do not want to use our arrangements. We will also cover the cost of renting eye & ear protection.
