    I've been here twice and they're very beginner friendly. If it's your first time shooting a gun, they'll train you on how to use it with a practice bullet. Safety is their #1 priority and they tell you to have the door closed before opening the other door to minimize gun noises. They also have protective gear such as glasses, noise cancellation headphones and earplugs.

    First review of 2025! First shooter today too, put the first one down range! Only brought the EDC pistol; SIG P365 AXG Legion. Add Romeo-X enclosed compact red dot. Super convenient for West Los Angeles shooters. Not to mention they have a comprehensive ammunition retail store - fully stocked with range ammo plinkers to high-end self defense rounds or long range, high velocity hunting rounds. Most ranges "nearby" require a lot of drive time or are super expensive requiring memberships. Range fee here is twenty bucks ($20). Gun rentals available but I've never done that so not sure about quality or models, pistol or rifle. I always see a lot of folks renting so seems like it's popular! Check it out, enjoy! Lastly, I like the staff, all the guys are polite and work you through what can be long lines on weekends, and they always make newbies feel comfortable.

    Another fantastic match took place yesterday at The LAX Firing Range, with a turnout even larger than Round #1 last month. The doors opened promptly a few minutes before 7 AM, and by 7:30 AM, we were off and running. A total of 6 relays were completed before opening to the public at 10:30 AM. My performance was a bit mixed across the five divisions I competed in, but I was able to achieve a perfect score (500) with 35X in Unlimited. Here are my scores: - MOS: 493 36X - Unlimited: 500 35X - Stock: 485 34X - Rimfire: 486 37X - Pocket: 241 16X The final match, Round #3, will be held on Saturday (04/19). In addition to plaques and other prizes, one lucky participant will walk away with a brand-new GLOCK 19.

    Long wait, but if you're special you can cut the line.

    This place is horrible. No signage about the special front of the line for their friends. They make you wait in line while special people get to come right in. Waste of time. Do not go to this place.

    Straight forward place to go a let off a few rounds. Also completed my ccw qualification here. They are knowledgeable and friendly. Get you in the lane and keep everybody as safe as possible. Wish you could do holster draw or rapid fire but I guess they're trying to keep everything as safe as possible. Will continue to come here when I need to get my fix.

    Target practice for AR-15! Fun times. Still working on my aim.

    Fun place! good vibes, good equipment, and great staff. I've been here a few times & I appreciate their willingness to educate customers about gun safety, basic etiquette, and their vigilance about these policies. Yesterday I was there when two individuals came in as a group -- they disobeyed and broke the rules (they were sharing a lane). The employees quickly pulled them out and told them they couldn't shoot anymore. Everyone else continued to have a good time & No one was hurt. For those complaining about parking, it's not that deep. Street parking isn't bad and is usually a quick 1 minute walk. If you want to avoid the line get there early!

    First time here on a friday night, you fill out the waiver and are allowed to go inside. Once inside they have a great selection of glocks and some rifles for rent. Jose took really good care of us, he explained to us how the gun range works and the different type of firearms they had. He explained to us the rules for inside the range efficiently for us to understand. There was no wait time to shoot a glock so we were able to go in within the moment we arrived. We had already been informed that you can not shoot consistent rounds; you have to wait a couple of seconds to shoot. Josh, the other gun attendant, kept repeating over the speakers. That to me made me feel safe because it made me realize that even though both attendants were busy in the lobby, they were also aware inside the range. Overall this place is great! I enjoyed my time here and can't wait to come back! Thank you to jose and josh for the great customer service!!

    See all

    The hours of operation are misleading and false. They show 10pm, but will turn you away at 9pm. This is accurate as of 02/02/2026

    Ask the Community - LAX Firing Range

    Is hollow point ammo still not allowed?

    Michael, You can shoot hollow points here, we just do not allow steel or aluminum cased ammo.

    Can you bring your own guns? And, Are bull pup shotguns allowed?

    You can bring your own gun, I can answer that part of the question.

    Can I take my FSC test there?

    They’re not a retail dealer, so not likely. However one of their outside instructor might.

    What are your policies regarding CCW holders? Do we have to disarm and unload prior to entering the range?

    Just hand them your license when you are handing them your drivers license prior to being buzzed in. Out of courtesy, if you are just being waved in, have it ready to hand over and mention you are armed. Gun people like to see and participate in… 

    What are the hours of operations? I see different times listed in Yelp vs their online website. Also, is there's holiday schedule?

    Am I allowed to clean my pistols myself with my own cleaning gear in the waiting room area after I'm done shooting?

    No, probably not, but you can check with the front desk. Typically magazines can be loaded anywhere, but gun handling can only be done on the firing line.

    Can I shoot ar pistol here?

    Yes, 100%.

    Does a 20 year old need to be accompanied by a parent/guardian if they go with a 21 year old (not renting)?

    Joshua, 18-20 year old's' need to come in with a friend or family member who is 21 years of age or older in order to rent a firearm and purchase ammo.… 

    Hello, I am bringing my own firearm, I wanted to know how much would it cost to rent a lane, about 3-4 targets & two 50 count boxes of ammunition for S&W40 cal.?

    Hey Ernest, You will be looking at around $88. Lane fee is $20, 40 s&w is $29.99, and targets are $.90.… 

    Can I bring my own bullets or is it mandatory I buy your bullets?

    You can bring your own bullets but I am not sure about hollowpoints.

    Do you need to be accompanied with someone who owns a gun in order to be able to rent and shoot?

    Fill out their intake form on their website. This will save you time from having to do that when you are there. The rule of thumb is: if you are planning to rent a firearm, then you must have someone accompany you (some places will let you rent… 

    Does a certificate come with the beginners firearm training?

    Our two hour beginner courses do not come with a certificate. The NRA basic pistol class does come with a certificate upon completion of the course.

    What's the fee on bringing in your own ammo, 100rounds 9mm fmj?

    The lane fee for brining in outside LAX pistol ammo is $25 per person per hour. rifle and shotgun ammo you must purchase from us here at the range or in the ammo store. No… 

    Do you guys sales guns?

    Sorry. We don’t. Ammo sales and merchandise only.

    What is the process on bringing your own handgun to the range?

    Easy. Just bring your own. Needs to be in a separate case. That's it. I saw some guy walk in once with a pistol in his hand. Not good.

    Do LAX have military discount?

    Yes they do on there range time fees

    Can I shoot my shotgun with a pistol grip?

    Only if it has a full buttstock it can not just be a pistol grip only

    Can u bring your own ammo?

    Yes or they sell it there - good selection at the shop next door.

    What's the cost for your firearm safety class?

    Between $120-$130. Someone I know just took the class this past Saturday morning. Includes class and shooting.

    What's is the largest caliber I can shoot at your indoor range ? Is is pistol calibers only ? Or can I shoot common rifle calibers as well ? .223, .300 etc ? Please advise?

    I have shot my 5.56 and 12 gauge shot gun there. Not sure about .300.

I felt WELCOMED the moment I stepped into the store, due to the professionalism of the staff. Nothing is more important to me than great customer service. I couldn't get the guns I wanted due to the CA bans, but I am a man with backup plans! I already did research on a 2nd, and 3rd gun. One of my paperwork wasn't good, but I had a backup utility bill Thanks to Patrick for your help, professionalism, knowledge, and patience! A+ service

    Bad experience from start to finish…read more We came in for a PPT and waited nearly an hour while the staff talked with someone who wasn't making a purchase. They weren't friendly or welcoming and seemed much more attentive to regulars or people they knew. They took the seller's ID right away, but only checked my information much later. They then denied the PPT because my California driver's license was missing a space in my last name, even though my passport card and FSC showed my correct legal name. They explicitly stated that the ATF does not allow this exact situation, but four other FFLs had no issue with the same documents and I could not find any ATF guidance supporting that claim. It felt like an excuse rather than a legitimate requirement. Had I been buying directly from them instead of bringing in a $10 PPT, I doubt this would have been handled the same way. I won't be returning.
