Frequently Asked Questions – Bay’s Indoor Range
Do I need an appointment or membership?
No appointment and no membership required! Just walk in during open hours. First come, first served. We do recommend calling ahead on weekends if you have a large group.
Do I have to own a gun to shoot here?
Not at all! We have a large selection of rental firearms — handguns, rifles, and even full-auto (with instructor). Try before you buy or just have fun for the day.
How much does it cost?
Lane fees start at $20 for one shooter (unlimited time until closing). Additional shooters on the same lane are $20 each.
Can I bring my own ammo?
Yes — for your own firearms you may bring factory-new ammunition. No steel-core, armor-piercing, tracer, or reloaded ammo allowed. We also sell clean, accurate range ammo at great prices if you’d rather buy here.
Do you allow rapid fire?
Controlled rapid fire is fine. Full-auto and bump-fire are allowed only under direct supervision with one of our instructors.
Is the range safe for beginners and children?
Absolutely. Everyone gets a safety briefing. Children 10+ may shoot with a parent or guardian. We offer private beginner lessons and “First Shots” classes every weekend.
What do I need to bring?
Just a valid government-issued photo ID (driver’s license, passport, etc.). We provide eye and ear protection free of charge. Closed-toe shoes required — no flip-flops.
Can I take my targets and brass home?
Targets yes, brass no — all brass belongs to the range (helps keep your lane fees low!).
Do you offer South Carolina CWP (concealed weapons permit) classes?
No! We hold certified NRA Certified Instructor classes almost every Saturday and some weekdays. Range time included. Check our calendar or call for the next class.
Is the range wheelchair accessible?
100% — wide lanes, low counters. One person per lane at a time.
What are your hours?
Monday – Friday: 9 AM – 5 PM
Saturday: 9 AM – 3 PM
Sunday: CLOSED
