Pappys Gun Shop

I used to love to go to Pappy’s, but they raised the price and lowered the service. A buddy and I went 2 weeks ago on a Saturday. I knew it was a club shoot day so we went about 2pm 100 yard range had 1 person on it. IO asked if we could be next. He said maybe depends on if a class shows up to do a CWP test??? A CWP test on the 100 yard range. OK we said so we used the short 20 yard range. Person leaves from 100 yard. I go and ask can we use the 100 yard range? «NO we are having a class at 3“It is about 2:15. I say ok how about after the class? «Maybe» So the class ends I go and ask again ok the class is over can we use the range now? «No we have regulars waiting to use it» F*&^ them! If I want to shoot pistols outside and have no other option I may go back. I give up on the 100yard range.

At first I was excited to find a range in Rock Hill that was a little more safe than the other RH range however the service here is terrible. It’s a good ol’ boys club and the guy working the counter and the phone is horrendous and rude. I called to ask if they were open the day after Thanksgiving and his response was «I answered the phone, didn’t I?» I’ve been asked to leave the range after the 1 hour time limit, however if you’re a female waiting for a bay to open up with people waiting and a man is in the bay, don’t expect them to offer any help or have them ask a man to leave. I will drive 2 hours away to a better range just to not have to deal with these horrible people.

As far as places to shoot some guns, Pappy’s might be the winner for me when I’m at home in the Carolinas.
My favorite part? The place is outside in the middle of nowhere. I’ll admit that indoor gun shooting totally freaks me out, and I’m never going to be the girl that goes hunting and actually kills things… so this place works perfectly for me and my gun shooting needs.
The owners are fantastic. Super nice, and super reasonable prices! We paid $ 10 each to shoot for as long as we wanted (granted, we brought our own guns and ammo). Most places are going to charge you a lot more.
We went on a beautiful fall day, and it could not have been more perfect. Sunshine, crisp fall air, and great scenery.
The only little downside is you do have to drive a little ways out into the country, but for me it’s totally worth it. Great place!
