Great local range. Have a few guns on hold and thankful they answered on the 1st ring today. My favorite range to take family and friends

This was our first time shooting and we had a really fun time! When we first arrived, we were asked to sign a waiver and watch an instruction video. We got to choose the handgun we wanted to try and bought a box of 100 bullets for it. We started out with a .22 caliber. We were then given ear muffs and goggles. I had some trouble loading the magazine or when a shell casing got stuck but the staff was incredibly patient and informative every time I needed help. We wanted something with a little more punch to it so we asked and they let us switch to try a 9mm next! I definitely recommend this place as a great beginners shooting range. I will come back. Additionally, just a little tip for you is to wear clothes to cover most of your body. It was a spur of the moment experience for me so I wasn’t prepared. I was wearing a covering over a sleeveless shirt. One of the casings burned my skin when it came out of the gun after I fired. The staff was nice enough to give me some antibiotic ointment and bandaid.
Overall it was decent. Karen was very pleasant but needs a course on customer service. No greeting upon walking in, overcharged our card and we had to ask for an intro on how to use a weapon and it was my friends first time at the range. The other 2 gentleman were very nice and informative. Overall it was ok. I would go to Ballantine for another shooting session instead.
Great indoor range setup here, well managed and ran. A variety of rifles and pistols to rent, as well as a good range to buy. The split between rifle range and pistol range is good and reduces noise. The facilities and service here are top level. If your looking for a daily session or one off with friends and family this is a place worth checking out.
This is my experience today looking for a hand gun. How people can make or break a sale. I went to a different store first to purchase a 9mm hand gun. I was ready with my back ground check paper work in hand as I walked in. There were 3 employees standing behind the gun counter talking to each other. I stood there for a bit waiting and then one of the guys asked if I needed anything. I said I was looking for a SIG 9mm. He told me that they don't have any SIG's and went back to talking to the other co-workers. I stood there looking at the guns in the case for a while waiting for them to finish. I finally gave up. They were not interested in helping me purchase a gun it seemed. I walked to my car and googled \guns for sale near me\. I drove to The Range at Lake Norman. I walked in and a person told me they would be right with me once they finished helping out someone else. About 2 minutes later he came over and asked what I was looking for. I told him I was interested in a SIG. He didn't have any and offered to order me one. He asked me a few questions and then he pulled out some hand guns for me to look at. He was very helpful and I ended up purchasing a Smithfield EMP4. I love it!! I like the place I ended up at and won't be returning to the other place. I want to thank the professional friendly person who assisted me today!
