The experience

Sharpshooters Indoor Gun Range sits in St. Louis County with 20 dedicated shooting lanes, each one built with ballistic-rated stalls and plenty of space between shooters. The facility runs its own air filtration system and keeps the environment spotless. Range Safety Officers monitor all lanes throughout your session. You bring your own firearm or rent one from their selection of brands and calibers. The choice depends on what you're comfortable with and what the instructor recommends for your group's skill level.

The instruction itself is private and scaled to where you're starting: beginners get the fundamentals, experienced shooters work on technique. All the gear you need comes with the booking: eye protection, ear protection, targets and one box of ammunition per person. The range is yours for the full afternoon or evening, so there's no rush between shots. A live guide in English walks through safety, stance and practice with you the whole time.

After you're done shooting, you move to the on-site grill for St. Louis-style barbecue. The kitchen smokes brisket and pulled pork fresh daily over apple wood, served with two sides. You can eat in the main grill area, on the outside deck, or in one of the private rooms depending on your group size. Additional ammunition is available to buy at $27 per box if you want to keep shooting after your included round.

Operated by Sharp Shooters St.Louis Shooting Range

Is this one for you?The two-hour session is structured instruction, not open range time, so you're working with a guide the whole time rather than shooting on your own. That pacing suits anyone who wants feedback and technique coaching, whether you've never held a gun or you shoot regularly.
