Gun and Shooting Ranges Near You in Colorado Springs, CO

Can a felon legally go to a gun range?
Federal law strictly prohibits convicted felons from possessing or handling firearms and ammunition. Handling a gun at a firing range constitutes illegal constructive possession under federal law, which carries penalties of up to 15 years in prison. Some ranges permit felons to use non-firearm facilities like archery lanes, but firearm lanes are off-limits.

How much does it cost to shoot at a gun range?
Standard lane rental fees range from $15 to $30 per hour per person. Renting a handgun or rifle costs $10 to $25, and range rules typically require rental firearms to use house-purchased ammunition, which adds $20 to $45 per box. Renting mandatory eye and ear protection adds $2 to $5 if you do not bring your own.

What safety gear and attire are required at a gun range?
All ranges require ANSI Z87.1-rated safety glasses and ear protection with a Noise Reduction Rating (NRR) of at least 20 dB. Shooters must wear closed-toe shoes and high-collared shirts to prevent hot ejected shell casings from burning exposed skin. Firearms must enter the facility completely unloaded and secured inside a gun case.
