Front Range is a great place to shoot. Clean, modern, everything works, friendly staff. I can't quote you the rulebook, but I believe holster work is no issue when you show that you are competent and not just trying to be a cowboy. I've seen plenty of people drawing quick and fast from their holsters at that range. I probably go there about once a month.
So since I just whipped in to Trigger time to look at something and left going I will never be back. I thought I would praise these guys
I live 4 miles from Trigger Time and yes FRGC is much more affordable but they are so much friendlier. They have and make the time to answer questions, BS, help you out etc etc. I have never walked out of FRGC anything but happy. I drive 25 miles each way to go there and to me it is worth it over the Trigger Time unfriendliness 4 miles from home.
Kudos to FRGC on outstanding service and a very clean safe place to shoot.
No thread on Trigger time so I will save specifics til there is, but for me
FRGC is my choice for Northern Colorado
TDYRanger and I will be at Front Range tomorrow morning after 11:30am. Going to put a few rounds thru my AK in preparation for the Kalashnikov class. Plus anything lese we can carry. We usually walk in there with a heavy load.![]()
Live about 5 minutes from this range and my wife and I decided to join since it's a lot more convenient to get some practice with our pistols instead of a 2 hour round trip to pawnee. The staff was very friendly, I kinda wish I had known that they had a discount on the initiation if you had a CCW I will bring it up next time I visit. Noticed people posting about new owners, so maybe the discount was with the old owners. I am definately excited to try out their leagues.
Another bonus to my sunday was after shooting for about 1 1/2 hours I got to enjoy a beer at Grimm Brothers a few buildings over![]()
Only in Death does Duty end
Just thought I'd throw my $0.02 in here -
Pros:
- Best ventilation of any indoor range I've been to.
- The staff is always helpful and friendly. Ed and Steve in particular.
- Tons of leagues, classes. Cody teaches AR-15 classes that fill up pretty quick.
- Rangemasters are EXTREMELY safety conscious. They will walk through doing safety checks quite often, especially on busy weekends. They are polite but firm. Awesome.
- Grimm Bros Brewhouse is around the corner. They have food trucks and fantastic beer. You can't go wrong after a few hours of shooting.
Cons:
- They're so popular, there's currently a wait list for membership. :P
As far as holster draw, it's pretty clearly written in their range rules (binder is very easy to find on every bench). Holster draw is only allowed after they've gone over the rules in person with you, and have observed that you are being safe. I believe you have to be a member, not just a guest.
I've been a member of the FRGC for a few months now. I started as a complete noob after I bought my first rifle, and took one-on-one instruction with Cody. Awesome people there, a bit rough around the edges, but overall definitely a great place to shoot!
I am also a member there. Just a few blocks from the shop!
I have nothing but great things to say about the staff and the facility. And holster draws are not a problem. Just ask a RO. I think they mainly want to show that the benches are removable! And most importantly, as mentioned, Grimm Brothers share a wall!!
Any members wanna get together there, just PM me!!
