Compiling list of ranges for Map, need help

[Colorado Osprey]

The Izaak Walton League/Pikes Peak Gun Club- Membership, or can pay to come on, not sure if you need to be with a member.

You can shoot shotguns by the round charge, but pistol/rifle you need to be a member, except those 2-3 days a year they are open to the public in the fall for rifle site in... the weekend that members avoid.

There is a huge lack of shooting ranges between Colorado Springs and Denver...

You bet there is..... with Monument, Parker, Castle Rock, Franktown... it's no wonder.

Doesn't Ft Carson do fall site in as well?

Here is an interactive map with locations and dirrections to all shooting ranges from the Colorado DOW site:

Not very current... still lists Rampart Shooting Range

[Fal Grunt]

Why does noone list Harris Park?

It's gonna get shut down soon for a fire sale, hopefully the FS will open it back up when it is done.

The only way to shoot at Ft Carson's Privately Owned Weapons (POW) range is to have a valid DoD ID card. There is no open shooting at any time for anyone not authorized to shoot at the POW range. Active duty, retirees and dependants 12 years or older are the only authorized users.

Anyone with a range card along with one additional ID card holder can open the range (two person concept for safety reasons). The range is open every day of the year from sunrise to sunset. The only times they are closed is if there is training on an adjacent range, or if construction or grass cutting is being conducted in the immediate vicinity of the range.

It is a really nice range (now) with ten covered shooting positions (with benches) with target berms marked at 7, 15, 25, 50, 100, 200, & 300 yards. They provide the target stands, chairs, staples, targets....almost everything except your weapon, ammo, hearing and eye protection. No shotguns with pellets (slugs OK) and no full auto. Not sure why the no full auto since it is an Army post, but those are the rules they have.

Now that I'm retired, I have a hard time finding people to go shoot with me, and taking my wife along to be the other ID card holder is like pulling teeth.

I know this one has been mentioned - but not on the map:

Also - Frontier Sportsman's Fountain location is about 15 miles further than it indicates - just FYI for those interested...

I'm a DoD cardholder and haven't ever been to Ft Carson's range. What are the specifics for going there? Do you need to register your guns with them or get a special qualification card or anything?

[AAdvsr]

Yes, all guns need to be registered with the Provost Marshal and this can be done at the Motor Vehicle registration (open only weekdays, I think 8-4 or so). It takes about a week to get the paperwork back.

If the Privately Owned Range (Range 1) is open, you can shoot with a DoD card. To open the range, all you need is a range safety card. You can get one by attending a safety course on Saturday at Range Control (I think it's usually held at 1 pm). All you need is one person with a yellow Range Safety card and another DoD card holder to open the range.
