The Sharp Shooter

It had been a loooong time since I had been on a range. And for my father, it had been decades. After the CVid 19 toilet paper fights and craziness though, I decided it might make sense to get a firearm in the house again. But I just hadn't made time to get acquainted with it. I was actually a little nervous about how much I might have forgotten. Felt there were probably a hundred little things - stupid little mistakes - I could carelessly stumble into. So I had been putting it off. Turns out I had *nothing* to worry about. Instead of trying to pretend like I remembered what I was doing, I signed up for a basic introductory gun safety class for myself and my Dad. Figured the safest thing would be to build a solid foundation by starting back again at square one. Sure, a lot of it was review -- but it was good review. Our instructor Payt (Peyt?) was amazing! He was incredibly knowledgeable, had a great way of explaining things, but most of all, he had an incredible sense of calm control that assured us everything was okay, everything was being done safely, that we were safe, and that we were being trained to BE safe for others as well. Everything was step by step, which was exactly what I'd hoped for. And sure enough, it all started coming back. By the end of our session we both felt comfortable, confident and safe clearing our weapons, loading rounds into our magazines, loading magazines into our weapons, chambering, setting a proper stance, sighting, breathing, making adjustments, firing, handing recoil, working safeties, clearing jams, ejecting spent magazines, and clearing our weapons again for safe storage. In short, as I stated before -- Peyt was awesome! And the entire time was pleasant, enjoyable, and fun.Put about 100 rounds downrange that day between the both of us. We had a great time, and definitely look forward to going back soon. We see not only an opportunity to rebuild a valuable skill down at the Sharp Shooter, but also a chance to spend time sharing a pass-time we can both enjoy getting better at...together. Thanks Peyt! And thanks to everyone at the Sharp Shooter! Definitely a top-notch bunch of knowledgeable, professional, and all around great people.

If you ever go here ask for Pate!!! He made our experience extremely excellent. This was our first purchase and he explained everything thoroughly and made sure we understood everything we needed to know about our weapons and accessories. He went above and beyond for us. If you don't know anything about weapons he will make sure you do when you leave!

My go-to range when I was stationed here. Staff is super awesome, extremely knowledgeable, and every now and then, Barrett the managers pup will make an appearance. Range is pretty clean - 5 pistol bays and 5 rifle bays out to 50 yards. It can get pretty slammed during the weekends, but they do have military Mondays.

These guys know their stuff and will take the time to talk, answer questions and they're not afraid to listen to experienced customers. The indoor range is a great way to get out of the heat. Nice selection of firearms, knives and accessories.

Everyone was very helpful. They can get very busy. I love there very friendly dog that wanders around. I plan on going back to use their indoor range.

Having recently moved to the Coastal Bend, I was finally in a position with house repairs to take another step towards my "retirement" activities, one being to be shooting again. I hate to admit I purchased my handgun shortly after 9/11 for personal protection and it had never been fired. So, after 20+ years, I broke it out and talked to the counter staff that assured me it would all come back pretty quickly. The aim did come back but the weapon was so dry it wouldn't cleanly discharge the casing. A little oil and rub at the repair bench and all was good with aim and weapon performance. I've been back and will be there regularly for sport and practice. Great staff, great facility (even better when you police your own brass) and decent prices. I go during the weekday so no waiting. Even if you have to wait a bit on the weekend, I think it would be worth your time. Happy Shooting!

Stopped in on our vacation to Corpus Christie, hoping to get some local info about guns and ammo. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable about what to expect when we move there. Large selection on site of gun safes and just about everything else. Looking forward to spending time and money here!

I brought in a new tikka rifle with a bolt that would not eject. The staff worked on the bolt got it to eject cleaned the bolt and got it working properly. They didn't charge me. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend. I have also used their shooting range in the past. Very well run gun store large inventory of firearms.

Excellent customer service definitely recommend. Dropped my lower off for cerakote and the said the turn around was about two weeks which I was completely fine with and got a phone call 2 days after I dropped it off and it was already done. Came out perfectly to my liking.

Best place ever to learn how to utilize a gun.Very professional, thorough and affordable.Most fun I've had in a while. Stop on by, see for yourself.
