Range Shooting Portion - We use Double Diamond Gun Range located in Anson. This is a nice indoor facility with air conditioning so that we do not have to worry about the weather. The address to the facility is 2065 US Highway 277 South, Anson, TX 79501.

​

For the range you will need your handgun, 50 rounds of Full Metal Jacket Brass Casing Ammo, ear protection, and eye protection, prescription glasses are ok. If you have attended one of our LTC classes and plan to do your qualification you will need 100 rounds of ammo.  If you are qualifying, attachments such as optics and lasers must be removed from the firearm or turned off as they are not allowed during the qualification process.  Please see below for specifics on firearms and ammo recommendations.

​

We recommend that you either wear a ball cap or have hair tied back, wear closed toe shoes, and that you do not wear any loose fitting shirts. For the ladies, we do not recommend getting your nails done prior to qualification as this makes loading and shooting difficult.

Using the quality ammo listed below will help keep the shooting portion moving quickly and minimize jams and malfunctions. However, due to the ammo shortage, we are not limiting the types of ammo you can use.
