Announcements

March 16th, 2020: Coronavirus: Due to the "shelter in place of their residence" notification for Santa Cruz County, Los Altos Rod and Gun will be temporarily CLOSED to the public. We will post here when we plan to repoen.

February 17, 2020: Starting on Wednesday April 1, public range admissions will end at 3PM with shooting ending at 4PM. If you are new to the range, please arrive earlier so that you have enough time to read our release and rules.

 

Plan Your Visit

The Range does not rent guns, so bring a gun (unloaded and in a case), and your gun's instruction manual if you are not already very familiar with it.

There is little or no cellular phone service at our location. Do not rely on mobile/smart phones to meet others in your party at the range or use Uber, Lyft, or other ride-sharing services.

Target frames are wood with asphalt paper at fixed positions, and are not to be moved by shooters. To mount paper targets to our target frames, we highly recommend also bringing a stapler (or renting one at our office for $2).

Admission costs only $23 per day per adult and only $12 for those age 7 through 17 (with supervising adult). The Range office accepts cash, credit cards, debit cards, Apple Pay, and Samsung Pay.

Before Your Trip

Before visiting the Range, please read our Range Safety Rules to save time reading them when you arrive, and note the following:

• Each shooter is expected to know and follow safe practices for handling and shooting guns, including our rules. Our rules are no substitute for good training, so please learn basic gun safety procedures from a qualified instructor or knowledgable friend.
• Instructors may coach and/or train students at the Range, but may do so for compensation/pay only with NRA certification, prior approval of the Range Master, and proof of insurance on file. The Range does not charge instructors any additional fees, and encourages instructors to apply for approval.
• Minimum age restrictions:
  • Under 21: May not coach handgun shooters; may shoot handguns only with a responsible adult age 21+ and parent's or legal guardian's presence or written permission; may not purchase ammunition for handguns
  • Under 18: Must be accompanied by an adult at all times; may shoot only with presence of or written permission from parent or legal guardian and while coached by a responsible adult (age 21+ for handguns or 18+ for long guns) within arm's reach of gun used; may not purchase ammunition
  • Under 7: May not enter shooting range area (may enter only the picnic/office area)
