Came to XCAL on my birthday after hearing good things about this massive 95,000 sq ft sports…read morecenter, plus indoor gun range! Talk about a fun two-in-one combo! As a budding gun enthusiast and someone who's new to shooting (2 years in), I've been looking for places to get target practice in and to improve my skills. XCAL is the nicest gun range I've ever been to! The facility is only a couple years old, so everything is still shiny and new. I arrived here on a Tuesday late afternoon around 4ish and there was already a line. Seems like a popular place, so get here early if you want to avoid lines! While I was waiting, I checked out their retail area. The counter staff was very knowledgeable about all the guns I asked about and had helpful suggestions on other options that they though I would like. When my lane was ready, they called my name on the intercom. The staff who helped check me in was also super friendly and asked me how my day was. I told her it was my birthday! She threw in a free target with balloons on it! I asked to rent a PCC and full automatic glock with a couple boxes of ammo. They said the glock rental was on the house for my birthday! Sweet! Normally full automatic glock rentals are about $85. I ended up paying for the PCC rental, a couple boxes of ammo, plus eye and ear protection (about $109 in total. this included ear/eye protection for my wife who joined me in the range). The full automatic glock was incredibly fun to shoot! I felt like I was in a John Wick movie! I highly recommend trying it out. The range staff took all the helpful safety precautions on site, including for this particular gun. A range safety officer was required to be next to me to use the full auto, and loaded the magazine for me. For the PCC, I was able to load it myself. Best range experience I've ever had! The facilities were state of the art and all the staff were so helpful.

I love this place. I've made multiple purchases here for handguns and a rifle. I also use the…read moreshooting range at least once a week. All the staff here is friendly and attentive. They are super knowledgeable, and they seem to get excited when you ask them questions as opposed to being annoyed like some other places! Prices are decent considering that this place has a luxurious and clean vibe. The monthly membership is a great deal and also offers discounts on FFL transfers. My only complaint is that I wish it was closer to where I live, but that's more of a me problem! I'll be buying more stuff here and using the range often. I'd love to get a gym membership here but I live too far to take advantage of it.

Honestly, I love this place. I feel like it gets some flak on Reddit, but for what it offers to the…read moreAshburn area, it's exactly what you need. The range is easy to access, the staff are helpful and kind, and they make the FFL process as painless as possible. Their showroom has plenty of items, and they're willing to order you whatever you want if they don't have it. The prices are steep, but it's the typical gun shop prices.

Silver eagle has a great concept with poor execution. The RSO's seem un attentive and talk to…read morecustomers instead of keeping their eyes on people discharging firearms. One gentleman was shooting with his hands and pistol across the firing line for over 30 minutes. RSO did nothing as I was chronically showered with the brass of every shot of my neighbor. It's expected to get hit with brass sometimes, but c'mon. Seems like a good deal at the cost for safety. XCal makes me feel a lot safer shooting than at SEG. Also heard an RSO turned in someone to federal authorities for dumbly using an FRT on a rental weapon. Said person was charged and had to spend thousands for the case to get dismissed, because he did nothing illegal.

Love these guys, they're super helpful and can explain anything you need. The shop is small but…read moreperfect, and they're willing to work with you to order anything they don't have in stock. They also have a nice consignment rack if you're looking to penny-pinch a bit. I've bought multiple things from them, and I will keep coming back. T

Both are ex Military - one of them special forces and I couldn't have had a better experience. Both were very patient with us as we are total rookies with guns. Their curriculum is concise, organized, and designed to help commit best practices into muscle memory. They teach everything according to NRA standards and really help the student have fun as they learn the ropes. I highly recommend Tip of the Spear Academy to both beginners and experienced shooters alike. I plan to take more classes with them in the near future.

Their rep hit me up right away here on Yelp, and I made the drive a few days later to look into a Cerakote finish for my latest handgun conquest. Pricey for sure but my word does it look like a brand new firearm. I'm taking my wife's P22 there soon to get some fun color but the regular gunmetal finish I got for this Colt really is impressive. Cool little shop too, and I tbh I did enjoy some of the responses from the owner to a handful of digs on this platform too haha. More SBO should be this genuinely engaged. Nice work fellas thanks again.
