Hello all I am the new moderator for this community and I want this to be the place for any person looking for anything involving hunting,fishing, shooting, ranges , and anything else you could imagine for Alabama sportsmen with a little help I think this will be very easy to accomplish

Surprisingly there are relatively few places to shoot here in Alabama. I thought I would post the places I have shot, so others could find out about them. Hopefully other people will do the same.

Tuskegee National Forest, Between Auburn and Tuskegee: Pros. 100 yards, and it's cheep. $3 per day. No restrictions on guns or ammo there. Cons: It's fucking dangerous. They let any fool out there and it's only a matter of time before somebody gets killed by stupidity. If you need evidence, look at the number of bullet holes in the bathroom walls. It isn't rare to see 5 20 year olds with one AR15 out there, waving the thing around like it's a toy. Also, the entire range is covered in trash and broken wood. Do not go there in flip flops.

Tri-County Shooting Range, Montgomery: Pros: Safe, well run, clean. IIRC a 150 yard range. Cons: It's fucking expensive. IIRC $10 "membership" per year, $15 per day to shoot. Not a bad place at all. But you can easily spend way more here then it costs to join CAGC.

Lower Wetumpka Shotgun Sports Club, Montgomery: Cons: Shotgun only (well duh, look at the name) Pros: This place is fucking awesome. Clean, well run, safe, very reasonable prices, and an owner who really cares about the place and his customers. Free gun rental for kids and ladies ($10 for us dudes, but he has some seriously sweet shotguns. All Berettas and Brownings IIRC, perhaps a Remington or two). Skeet, trap, five stand, and a gorgeous sporting clays course. If you live in Alabama, and like guns, you really need to check this place out.

Central Alabama Gun Club, Montgomery: A good place if you want to join. Members only. 100 yard range, 300 yard range, a dozen or so pistol pits, two racks of 6 falling steel plates. Cons: initiation is a pain, you have to go first Saturday of the month or you ain't getting in. The first year is pricey, after that very reasonable. Great target frames on all ranges. I am a member, and if you live near the gump, you should be too. CMP games, IDPA, IPSC, Cowboy Action, Benchrest, and Steel Challenge events to be had. One clay target thrower is available to members as well.

Pop's Armory, Jemison: This is a place run by a guy doing it for the love. A small gun shop, with a small outdoor 50 yard range beside it. Pop is an excellent gunsmith, with reasonable rates, and not a long wait at all. In fact the one issue I had to have him fix, he just went and did it immediately, took about an hour. $8/day to shoot at his range which is very reasonable. 50 yard range with 10 steel plate targets, plus two steel plate silhouettes to shoot at. I love shooting at Pop's, and you will to. Typically the range is empty, so you can practice draws, move and shoot etc. The only negative is no heavy magnum pistols or centerfire rifles. On top of that, Pop is just a cool dude.
