Let me just start out with I was a member for a year and I will not be renewing my membership for many reasons. Most of my issues deal with the prices that they charge. Anyone that wants to take the time to look around can find better deals on everything in their store. their prices are usually at least $50 more than everywhere else. I have found better deals on new guns in pawn shops. Not to mention the range pricing is outrageous. $440 a year plus a one time $100 initiation fee? most places I have went to are about $350 a year with no initiation fee. The ammo is almost double what it should be and dont get me started on their used bargains. Everytime I see that cabinet I can walk over to their new cabinets and find the gun new for $20 more. Just today I had a gun shipped to them and it arrived at about 11:30 to their store. They said due to high volume it took a while(5 hours to book it) and this is not the only time it has taken them a long time to book the firearm. still unacceptable. I will be taking my business elsewhere from now on.
I just recently found this place(new to the area) and I went there to shoot a couple of new guns I bought. The absolute best staff Ive ever been around at a range. Incredible customer service and professionalism. My experience was so good, I found an excuse to go back and purchse a pistol from them shortly after lol. The prices are very good and they have one of the best selections Ive seen. Highly reccomend this place for its customer service, range quality and product availablilty. A+
Its a very nice place. Lots of lanes and events. The kitchen makes some tasty food too. My issue is the guns and ammo is sky high pricing. Its like they are trying to be a boutique dealer or reach an upper class customer. I think they would do better if they lowered the prices on the guns and ammo and sold in volume. But, my names not on the building and maybe its working for them.
I am responding to the review written by Mr Skelton. I am a competitive shooter and a member of 5 different ranges. I frequent Shot Spot at least twice a week. I could not disagree more with his review. Every single employee at Shot Spot is friendly, professional, helpful, and go out of their way to make everyone feel welcome. The safety officers are the best I’ve ever seen. The “counter people” are by far, some of THE nicest and most helpful, accommodating people of all the ranges I go up. Mr Skelton, I suggest you go to Adventure Outdoors if you want to see what BAD range employees are like.
Their staff was polite and very willing to help, they had a decent selection of firearms, but honestly? It had a slight air of if you dont make so much money then you arent really welcome here vibe. They also dont really cater to a lot of shooters, in my opinion, selling high end clothing but not carrying duty belts and the like. Its a nice enough place, and the staff is incredibly helpful, or try to be, but I dont feel welcome there for the most part. Maybe its me, who knows?
The range USED to be a good place to go shoot. Now, none of the range counter staff seem interested in doing anything besides looking at their phones. Couldnt get any help with the 100 yard range. At least they didnt charge me for the time when I told them I couldnt get it to function correctly. I have used it in the past, btw.I guess I will have to drive 35 minutes to shoot at Stoddards from now on even though I only live 5 minutes down the road. Very disappointed.
Great place. Nothing else like it around. The only downside is that it is expensive. But to have such a huge selection of guns, ammo, and accessories in stock Im sure that the overhead is steep. I love the place and anyone who is into firearms would too. A first rate establishment and would recommend to anyone.
Visited twice and I have to say all of the staff was incredibly friendly. A hidden gem if you are into the shooting sports, this place is a must see. Great selection of firearms, but they didnt forget about the ladies, there is clothing and quite a bit more. Just go visit for yourself .
Great Place to host an event!!! Recently hosted an event at Spot Shot and the entire group had a GREAT time. From the advice, planning and coordination it was done professionally (Thank You Sherri Jordan). The Range Safety Officers (Johnny Mac and Steve Dorman) were especially helpful and knowledgeable, offering advice and tips to the shooters. It was an extremely enjoyable day. Hats off to the venue and the staff!!!
Very friendly staff. However, for some reason they explicitly ban steel case ammo in their range. I understand banning steel core ammo, but I have no idea why anyone cant shoot lead core, steel cased ammo. Wish they mentioned that in the range contract/rules before I signed up for a membership. So basically I cant shoot 99% of AK ammo, unless I want to drop $1/rd for brass cased...
Just want to say what a awesome clean place to purchase or rent a gun to shoot..clean place for the beautiful womens clothing...they care how you use the gun .how to handle the gun.safety safety safety....they treated me and my wife newbees with total respect and care with all great since of friendship to the whole gun thing.....A SHOUT OUT TO.. ALEC..MIKE..STEVE..JC..BILL.YALL BE AWESOME 👍😎
I came to Hot Spot to look at hand guns to buy a 380. An elderly man greeted me and I told him what I was interested in. He showed me the hand gun case, but a employee had two men standing there talking. I said excuse me I would like to look. One man moved but the employee was propped on the case and would not move. Just kept taking and laughing. After that I told the man helping me ,I would just go some where else, they were just to busy talking and left.thats just rude! I will get it some where else.

2022-03-22I absolutely love this place! They have everything you could imagine and the know how to do what you need done. At first glance when you walk in you don’t think gun range, gun shop, or anything to do with shooting. But that’s what makes this place so unique! It’s not just for people who love shooting and anything to do with guns. You can bring the wife and let her browse the in house boutique with the latest and greatest up to date fashion. Once you make your way to the back and see I’m the incredible guns and ammo selection your met with a smile and a’ “how ya doin’ is there anything I can help you with?” You can’t ask for a better staff that’s so full of knowledge and friendly! Once you’ve gotten done with what you need head over to the 8 – 25 yard Dynamic Lanes which has a handicap accessible lane or choose the 8 – 15 yard static lanes which also has a handicap accessible lane. If you wanna reach out and touch something a little further away just walk over to the 3 – 100 yard rifle lanes which all 3 are handicap accessible! You can also choose to rent a rifle or handgun of your choice and see what it’s like to go full auto! This place is on point! Highly recommend!! Great job guys!

2022-04-06Been to a couple of gun ranges and this one I did not have a good experience for it being my first time. They charge a lot for ammunition so bring your own and staff were not that helpful or that friendly if I had questions.

2018-12-23Awesome. I wish that I could give this place more than 5 stars.My son wants to go hunting with me in Texas, but he never shot a gun. I bought a Groupon for a 9mm introduction, but I spoke with Julia and Sherri. Even though Sherri said that they were pretty full, she arranged for the lead instructor (forgot his name) to teach him a two hour private lesson, because I was only going to be visiting my son for a week.The first hour was a very professional class room instruction teaching my son shooting basics, especially safety. He spent the second hour on the range with my son teaching him how to shoot, aim, load, unload, and more safety.Professionalism: 5 stars I only dealt with the range staff, but the store staff was helping customers. Great customer service skills.Facilities: 5 stars: clean, organized, well laid out, and safe.Value: 6 stars. Worth the 6 hour round trip.Instructor: 7 stars. Not sure about the other instructors, but the lead instructor is excellent, in both his knowledge and instructor style. You can sense his passion about teaching proper gun / shooting procedures. Also, I could tell that he is a retired senior NCO, which probably shaped his teaching style.Overall, anyone looking to learn how to shoot, especially teens should come here. Also, military members from Robins AFB, or Fort Benning should make the hike.This experience was worth the 6 hour round trip, plus I know that my son has a good starting point.

2021-12-26Would be 5 stars but ammo selection is really limited. Range is very nice.I would suggest wearing double ear protection on the rifle range just because the tube will reverberate and it can be tough on your ears. I have found gun prices are fairly even with best prices on gunbroker so I may buy the same gun from here without shipping charges and FFL transfer fees.

2020-05-09I went for the first time yesterday and was very impressed! There is a great selection of guns, wide variety of parts and accessories, great little cafe, and the range was the best I have been to. Our range officer, Steve, was excellent! He was very helpful and knowledgeable and was in of himself enough to make me what to come back! The whole facility is very clean and well organized. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Will definitely be coming back!

2020-10-06I went to Shot Spot to get my scope mounting job done for my Lee Enfield No4. Cody is a very enthusiastic gunsmith. He is performing his job with great joy. When I took my rifle there to get my job done, he was very excited. The other staff were very friendly as well as starting from the Lady at the info desk to the other sales associates. You can take your mil surplus rifles as well as the modern weaponry. You can also find lots of cool clothing and accessories at the store.

2019-12-23This place has a huge selection of Firearms and the employees are very knowledgeable about all of them. We recieved free range passes with our purchase and came back to try out the range. I havent had the opportunity to shoot in many years and when I did it was with a rifle so it was nice to have the range safety officer there to help me with my new pistol. The whole experience for my family was pleasant thanks to the entire staff.
