Shootist Pistol Range Inc

Clean up the shop just a tad. Clean it and....""They will come"" more

Not impressed at all. I have no idea how this place is getting such glowing reviews, unless everyone else has never been to an indoor range before. First of all, the place is DIRTY. I didn't want to touch anything. The store up top is filthy, the range is filthy, with brass littering the floor, and blackened door knobs and walls that were once white. The staff acted like they were doing us a favor by helping us, and there was an entire wall of very racist, very anti-Obama stickers and printouts. Including covering the back of the cash register, just completely in your face. I understand that gun enthusiests aren't the biggest fans of democrats, but this was WAY over the line, and extremely unprofessional. It made our whole party very, very, uncomfortable. The range itself was totally ghetto, terrible ventilation, broken target lines, stacks of used targets everywhere, it was cramped, broken lights on the range, just not up to par with other indoor ranges I've been too. We won't be going back for sure, and considering the number of clean, professional, nice ranges there are here in Denver, you shouldn't go either. more

Both my brother and I have purchased firearms and used the range at the Shootist. Overall, both of us have been well pleased with our purchases and have been well treated. The gun knowledge of some of the staff is not exactly 'encyclopedic', but if you are willing to do you own homework about the firearms that you are interested in, you can find better than average value there. Bottom line: good folks and good deals. more

Yes, this is a pretty good shop, but the praise spewing out of the face holes of the last reviewers seems to consistantly outstanding. I dunno if I go there on customer neglection day or what, but most of the time I feel un wanted in the place. Plus the fact the reviews talk sh*t about firing line raises flags for me. more

1st off I am a new gun owner.I bought my 1st 2 guns (9mm, then a .45 from shootist pistol)within the last 3 weeks.I looked at several shops in Denver, but the shootist range staff was by far the most helpful. My girlfriend and I have only been to two ranges so far (firing line) but the shootist pistol range just feels right. As rookies, we felt very safe and comfortable there. I've found the staff to be very helpful, and even the fellow shooters are down to offer tips advice. more

Jon and Sherry and Donald and Christine were so helpful, pulled funny one-liners out of nowhere, and are very passionate about gun safety and knowledge. Great time to be had by all! more

Jon & Sherry were friendly, knowledgable and welcoming hosts! We took a firearms safety course to start the evening followed up with a terrific shooting session down on the range. The range was clean, well supervised and the staff was very friendly, attentive and helpful. IMHO, the Shootist is well worth a visit! Happy shootin' J more

First off I was unsure of going to any more gun ranges. After our horrible experiences, at the Firing Line in Aurora Colorado We were pleasantly surprised, by the welcoming environment. You are greeted with when you arrive at the sootiest pistol range/Gun store. This is a family run business that is run with the right attitude. Usually no wait time to go down to the gun range. The 1st visit to the Shootist I made a purchase of a nice used Browning high power .40 S/W which was priced right. The nice people here have never had an attitude other than a positive one. A attitude that they appreciate your business. We go here almost every weekend, and today was no different than any other time. The gentleman acting as the range master inquired with me twice if we need anything, or any help. 3 of us were placed on 1 lane, but the Range Master quickly let us use too lanes something we never got form the FIRING LINE other then there PO attitude. The 3 of us were always charged full rate, and stuck on one lane at the Firing line. 20 S. POTOMAC and never asked if we needed anything. For a fun and hassle free place to go this is the place I would recommend. Rate as 5 star. If you want a good range experience go to the Shootist pistol range at 2980 Galapago is a family owned range that is well lit and heated. more

I discovered this gem of a gun store about 16 months ago after moving here from LaLa land. To date, they have been friendly, knowledgeable, and have competitive prices with the other surrounding gun stores. Their range has 10 booths, is well lit, and nicely ventilated, which is somewhat of a rare occurence, for an indoor range! Believe me, I've looked and shot at 5 of the other ranges and they could all take a lesson from this family owned and operated business! more

I discovered The Shootist earlier this year while completing a CCW course. They have an excellent indoor range and I have always felt safe there when shooting, not always the case with many indoor ranges I have used in the past. They have competitive prices on their guns and probably the friendliest staff in Denver. As mentioned above, this is a family owned, run business with great customer service. The only complaint, and a minor one, is that there is not a gunsmith on sight, but I have always been able to work my problems with the staff. Give these good folks a try if you are looking for a gun shop. more

Have gone here for years. Great range to use for training, fun and practice. Have bought supplies which are dependable and safe. Have also bought guns here. If they don,t have it, they can get it. Orders are here promply with no hang ups. They make things as simple as possible. Great knowledge of their products. Best place in town in my opinion. Very fair with their prices. Give them a try, I am sure you will have a great time! Pros: Friendly service, knowledgeable help! Cons: None to date more

This place has plenty of lanes. Even on a busy Saturday when they're packed, I've had to wait 20 minutes at the most. There are a few things to check out in their store, and the prices are fair. They offer a few classes like Hunter's Safety, and Concealed Weapons. They rent some popular models, and have plenty of friendly advice. Try them out, and drop some rounds, you'll have a good time. Pros: Classes, fair priced ammo, friendly staff, safe location. Cons: I havent had a bad experience in ten years. more
