Is there anyone who frequents X-Ring Security Range that can confirm range pricing. I have family that's visiting from out of state. I see they have a $19/day for one time users. Do we also have to pay the $29 membership fee for each of the shooters? I am a member but adding 3 people with me that aren't members will be pretty pricey. If $29 plus $19 is required, I'll be taking them to Honolulu Firearms. I live 5 minutes from X-Ring so much more convinient.

*Disclaimer:  All customers who wish to shoot on our private range must register as members, 18 yrs and older. There is a simple, one-time registration fee of $29.95, good for life.

Current web site states the above.  On my previous visits, some months ago, they let me take my two cousins, from outer island, in to shoot as guests.  I guess that's out the window now..  maybe someone can chime in with a concrete answer.  I also live right there and am very sorry for the current business model.  I would probably be a regular customer other wise.


I haven't been there in a while so take it for what it's worth.. 

I was just there this past weekend looking for .22lr...couldn't even buy that without paying for the lifetime membership. Won't be back anytime soon.

Yes, EACH person shooting must pay the membership fee. I too am a member and while some don't like the concept of paying a lifetime membership just to purchase or shoot at their range, I don't find it to be a problem IMHO considering the connivance of their location to where I live, the quality of their range, and the fact that they have their own dedicated parking lot.

Also keep in mind that there are additional requirements to RAPID FIRE all guns (owned or rented) or HOLSTER DRAW pistols (owned or rented). They require you to be "certified" for rapid fire and this can be done at any time by letting an employee know and its $20.00 on top of whatever you're already paying for. The certification/qualification is to shoot a respectable series of groups at various distances depending on the firearm you intend to rapid fire. This certification is good for a YEAR I believe and they say you are issued a pass of some sort to be displayed in your lane to verify this.

Holster draw is only allowed if you pass their Arizona CCW course BTW.

Sounds like a drive to HFR is better. Xring does have women shoot for free. I think its wednesdays.

X-Ring Security Rapid Fire Certification (pistol):

 

I signed up for a free "membership" during the gun show sale.

How many hoops do I have to jump through and how much does it cost to jump through them if I want to shoot 50 rounds of 9mm there?

Do they even want the business of local hobbyist shooters there?

Did they have any interesting .22 LR?

According to Yelp, no.

Plenty hoops. I signed up on Father's Day with the free membership offer. I shot there the following Tuesday with a friend Tuesday's 2 shoot for the price of one it wasn't busy so we each had our own lane. I brought 2 rifles and 2 pistols, after the lane fee, 100 rounds of CCI SV .22 LR, 100 rounds of .40 S&W, 100 rounds of brass cased PPU 7.62x39 and 2 targets I ended up spending $175.

The backstop is rated for .50 BMG however the largest caliber they allow is .308 Win/7.62x51. They had some 54r and I asked if I could shoot that there and Brian told me no that ammo was for outside sales. There is a lesser selection of ammo in the range than they had on the other side prior to the range.

It will most likely be a once a year kinda thing to shoot there. It's nice to shoot pistols at distances closer than 25 yards.

No they didn't. It would cost you $29.95 to find out

My sister took my dad to check that place out last week.  I forgot to ask him about how it went.  These days, my dad typically likes to just check out what's available, but he always is looking to buy a knife or something.  Will have to ask him about his experience when I see him later today.

Personally, I haven't gone primarily due to location.  I'll admit that the feedback so far hasn't made me want to check it out any time soon.  That and some other "by association" type of feedback that I got when the place was just getting started.

You had to buy all your ammo from them, correct?

Ever get that feeling, no matter how nice you are, how open you are to the way things are, how quiet you are when things keep getting piled on.....  you still are not wanted around..... 

Meh

drck1000 I see your ? in the quote. Yes you have to buy all ammo from them, no outside ammo allowed.



I might as well get a micro bus or van and just run shuttles from Waikiki to Waipahu.

I've heard that feedback before.  It may have been on here.  Sort of feels like they have their own exclusive club of the owners and those with "ins".  That leaves even paying members feeling left out, neglected, and even stomped all over.

Yeah, sorry.  I corrected, prob just as you were responding. 

I had to read the yelp reviews.
Their ratings are all over the map.
Love them, hate them.....it's crazy.

Makes me think some of the yelps are shill bids....fake reviews by friends.

Maybe that's where I got some of that feedback, Yelp.  I recall someone mentioning questions about shill reviews somewhere as well. 

I went to X-ring to look around and ask questions on guns and accessories.  Everyone there was helpful and friendly.  I don't know the "secret handshake" so they're very professional. I don't shoot there due to the following:

1) Location (I live in town)
2) Price
3) Hoops you have to jump through (but I understand it's a liability issue)
4) HFR is closer and lets you do what ever you want as long as it's done safely.  They have the staff watch you for a little bit to see how safe you are.
