Shooting is believing

The range

An outdoor range on site, open to anyone thinking about a launcher. Fire every pistol back to back, see where the rounds actually go, and make the decision with your hands instead of a spec sheet.

Try before you buy

What a visit looks like

About thirty minutes, no obligation, no pressure to buy anything on the day.

Safety brief

Eye protection on, range rules, how the safety works and how the pull-pierce CO₂ system behaves. Short and practical.

Shoot the whole line

CL, CL-XL, SD, LE and the short-barrel LE, one after another on the same target. The differences in size, recoil and noise are obvious in about six shots each.

Talk about your situation

Home, car, purse, daily carry, a walk at night with a dog — the right launcher is different for each. We'll tell you honestly if the cheapest one is the right one.

Decide, or don't

Plenty of people come in, shoot, and think about it. That's fine. The range is here so you're not guessing.

What range time costs

  • On your own $15 / hour

  • WaiverEveryone signs an insurance-required waiver before shooting
  • Age18 or over to shoot on your own · 14 or over with a supervising adult

Training

Owning one and using one are different things

A launcher in a drawer that nobody has fired is not a defense plan.

Included with every purchase

Familiarization

Loading, unloading, the safety, magazine changes, CO₂ replacement, storage and maintenance — plus live rounds on paper so you've actually fired the thing you just bought.

30 minutes free with a launcher purchase
From $40 / hour

Tactical Training

Structured sessions covering draw and presentation, target discrimination, movement, low-light considerations and decision-making under stress. Scheduled around your availability. Sessions can involve several of our staff, so pricing varies with what you want covered — it starts at $40 an hour.

On request

Small Groups & Private

Couples, families, neighborhood groups, church security teams and small businesses. Tell us the group size and what you want covered and we'll put a session together.

Training is scheduled, not walk-in

Range demos we can usually accommodate during opening hours. Tactical training runs by appointment so we can set the range up properly and give you the time. Call (302) 339-9129 to arrange it.

Book it

Reserve your range time

You're booking a time, not a lane — the range is yours for the session. Fastest way is to call — (302) 339-9129. Or send this and we'll get back to you.

Call ahead if you can

We're a small shop. A quick call means the range is free when you arrive and someone is available to walk you through it properly rather than between customers.
