| - I used to shoot at this place all of the time until I had a poor experience there and felt I was treated unfairly. Let me start off by saying this, I have a strong military and law enforcement background and I had recently returned from a deployment in afghanistan when this incident occured.
I was on the rifle range zeroing my rifle with a new optic I had purchased. I confirmed my iron sights were at zero, then mounted my optic. I BZ'd the optic to my iron sights, flipped down the rear sight and squeezed off three rounds. I attempted to bring back the target with no success. A range safety guy eventually showed up and told me that one of my rounds hit the cable holding the target. The range guy then said to see him at the checkout counter when I was done. He didn't offer me another lane or anything. So, I packed up my gear, go to the counter and the range guys says that it costs $150.00 to fix the broken cable. So I'm thinking, and I ask him "are you serious"? Unfortunately, he was serious. So I paid the $150.00 to "fix the cable" and never returned again.
The reason I felt I was treated unfairly was an incident that occured at their rifle range prior to my deployment. I was all set up getting ready to shoot when the guys two lanes down to my right started shooting an SKS/AK type of rifle at a fast rate of fire. Next thing I know, their weapon goes full auto. I saw rounds hitting the gound from their lane then the rounds started making their way into my lane, then the rounds hit the ceiling downrange and the shooter ended up on his a$$ laughing. During the incident, I noticed the cable holding their target snap and fall to the ground. I looked over to the range safety officer, and he gives me the palms up shoulder shrug. Kinda of like the "oh well, it happens" gesture. They were never taken off of the lane, and when they left, I did not see them get charged. Does that sound right? Maybe it was because I was not of the same ethnic origin of the those guys, if you know what I mean. Who knows, but all I can say is I will not go there again after my experience and I encourage others to not go there.
After my incident where I was forced to pay the $150.00 I email John Velasquez and explain to him both of the situations I experienced and I left him a voicemail message. I have yet to hear from him and it's been about a year from the incident. Who knows, but all I can say is I will not go there again after my experience and I encourage others to not go there.
DISLIKED - The way my situation was handled (inconsistent with another situation). After leaving a professional emailed and voicemail message I did not receive a follow up call/email. It seemed like they just wanted my money and did not care about how the situation was handled at all.
