Field Sports Park – Metcalf Gun Range

I’ll start by saying that I’m probably not the best person to rate gun ranges. This was my first one and I was a bit overwhelmed. Luckily, we went with someone who had all the gear.
This place is outdoor and can get loud (even with ear protection, I still feel something after a few days). I was impressed by how safe and organized it felt.

Great place for shooters of every age and skill range. Safety is high importance too.

Nice range, very reasonably priced (stay all day for $ 15, if you so choose), courteous and helpful RSOs. Conveniently located to just any South Bay location. The range provides staplers and spotting scopes, and your first target is included in the range fee. If you’re going to be doing a lot of spotting, bring your own scope to avoid contention, and be aware that the range has restrictions on the type of targets allowed; in short, bring bullseye targets with you if you bring your own. Overall, a very friendly and safe place to shoot.

Went here to learn how to shoot my new AR. Staff was very helpful and consistently made sure everything was safe. My goto outdoor range in the South Bay.

Just came from the Rifle Range and felt compelled to do a review. I have been to this range several times and have never had any issues with the range masters. Today was an exception. I am a Army Vet (11B) and I suffered hearing loss from my time in the military. My work environment and age has only added to the problem.
I arrived as they just opened and observed several people putting up their various targets. As I was handed my target, I asked if I could put it up. A young Hispanic range master, I believe her name is Joanna, decided to ridicule me and talk down to me. Basically rolling her eyes and saying, «Uh, no… there’s a little thing called a 15 minute firing period. You know that thing where they go «Pew…Pew.» A couple of the other range masters decided to join in the laughter.
I was pretty taken aback with her really mean and condescending attitude. I had just seen people putting targets up and had not noticed they had just started the firing period. I decided to just laugh it off. The shooting range isn’t a place where you want to go ballistic. But looking back at the several times I’ve gone, I recall of times of when they have made fun of shooters behind there back.
I’ve taken my son here before and we had a great bonding experience. It’s sad to see how a hopefully fun time at the range can turn to an uncomfortable and embarrassing experience. We live in a state that wants to take away our gun rights. You would think that we would try our best to show that the gun communIty here is a great one. Not a community of really mean people.
I just hope that someone there reads this and realizes that maybe you should treat people how you want to be treated. That you aren’t as important as you think you are in the grand scheme of things. That just because you are put in a position of authority doesn’t give you free license to be a Jerk and ridicule people. You can get a lot further with a little patience, encouraging words, and a little bit of kindness. Trust me, I know.

I just shot 250 rounds with my daughter it was her first time shooting a handgun. I wanted her to feel comfortable and not be afraid of firearms.
The staff is Friendly, Very courteous and above all Safety is a top priority. Great place to shoot your firearms whether it be a rifle, shotgun, handgun. I blew through my ammo
I will be definitely be back with more. Great place.
Check it out

Love that the hours are super convenient (open early, people don’t stay for forever long), and several lanes are still open when we arrived and departed. Enjoyed the steel plates at the 100-​yard range. Staff is very involved in safety checks. Great intercom system for the waitlists and active in ensuring people on the waitlists get their chance at a lane. $!5 for all day usage. And yes, we’re super glad that the county allows its presence.

Great time at this place! Hard to believe the county can run this place!!! Always a good time here and all the employees are great! Really have done a lot to this range!!!

this is my favorite place to shoot and a great place to take my friends and family for a Lil range time. the employees are very friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable. their is also lots of shade and rest areas.

This range is great and only $ 15 per shooter for pistol and rifle. Targets must meet their standard but that’s okay. And you can blame inexperienced shooters for being unsafe not the range. All you do is let the range cadre know that you need help or someone is being unsafe and they will take care of it. Overall good range!

Place is great! Staff is very courteous and I didn’t feel uncomfortable the first time shooting there. Turnaround on lanes didn’t feel too bad.

Love this place. Go early on the weekends. Bring you own steel plates for targets. Bringing the kids next time.

Friendly front office. Fifteen minute sessions which is nice.
I’ve been to many shooting ranges, and many training programs. I felt the safety protocol here is less than safe. For example you might visit Los Altos Rod and Gun, which maybe is a smidge too strict, but better strict than sorry.
The shooting positions are pretty cramped, with not alot of room to maneuver around. There are quite a few county employees working, and again, they are all very friendly, but I think more of them should be walking around making sure muzzles are always pointed down range.
The cool thing is you can hang some steel at the far left of the 100yd range, and that’s also where the least supervision takes place fwiw, just be aware of fellow shooters that may be inexperienced and be sweeping you with their muzzle.
I am not coming back here unless friends insist on coming here.

This place is great for multiple reasons:
1) outdoor
2) range masters provide proper safety training and etiquette for newbies + will SCHOOL anyone who is demonstrating unsafe behavior
3) multiple ranges to cycle entire arsenal

Remember folks, this place is cash only and there are no ATMs.
I have shot at the Trap & Skeet as well as the Rifle & Pistol Range.
Great place to shoot overall. Staff is very friendly and helpful. My experience with other shooting ranges and their employees hasn’t been great but this place has never been a problem. Facility is well kept and it has to have the best backdrop and location.
The shotgun area has your basic trap and skeet set ups. For trap, there are small microphones at each station that pick up your voice when you say «pull» and out comes a clay pigeon. A RO stays with you for skeet and sends clays out when you yell pull. They also keep score for both trap and skeet.
The rifle and pistol range is just a short (very short) drive away on the other side of a foothill. Lanes are a good size, enough space to place your rifle and pistol cases, lay out ammo boxes and spotting scopes. Spotting scopes, mats and other goodies are available for everyone to use.

Went to this place today morning around 9am and it was awesome. No wait and Dave (ranger) that works there helped me to adjust my scope on my AK 47… Great guy and gave me plenty of info where to get parts also. Everyone there is very helpful. Thank you Dave!!!

Pro: Good location. Helpful and friendly staff. No wait time (Memorial day weekend).
Con: Only bulls-​eye targets allowed.
Overall: Would come back.

I went up today (Friday) at 2pm and was able to get 4 sessions in before they closed. This place is awesome and much more friendly than your average range. My brother and his girlfriend came as well and we had a great time switching between the pistol range (we had a glock and Sigs set up) and the rifle range with my AR. I usually shoot my steel targets up in Sly Park and it made my day when they also had steel gongs to shoot on the very left (you just need to bring your own wire to hang them up).
The range masters are professional and I definitely felt safe there. I highly recommend giving this range a shot.

One of the few outdoor ranges in the SouthBay. This is the only outdoor range I’ve been to in the area so this review is solely on my own opinion.
First off, CASH ONLY! the least they could do is have an ATM machine! otherwise you have to drive about 7 – 10 mins down the road to the Shell gas station.
Next tip. Get there bright and early. People start pouring in about and 1 – 1.5 after opening on Saturday.
The setup is okay. 25yard pistol range to the right and 50−100yd rifle range to the left. They have a 200yd range but it’s only open at a certain time of day or by request. anyway we just used the 50-​yd range to zero my friends brand spankin new LWRC Spartan 5.56 AR-​15. sucks they don’t let you use the 25-​yd to zero so pretty sure we didn’t get a good zero. but good enough on iron sights at 50yrds with a sh***y target.
anyway. The iterations are 15 mins. A little too long I’d say but there are kids and stuff so I guess it’s okay.
Range safety’s are good. Making sure everyone’s being safe.
Overall a decent outdoor range. but I would love to find a more «lenient» range. Which I doubt I will find in California.

Driving up to this place makes you feel like you’re in a horror flick. But why worry when you’re packing heat on your drive up… Hopefully you are!
A friend of mine wanted to go to a gun range for his birthday, so another friend of ours suggested this place. We decide to go on a early Sunday morning to avoid an overflow of people at the range. Our group consisted five guys and one female. The female was my friend’s fiancé and was an experienced shooter.
Since it was a majority of us who were shooting at this range, including myself, we had to fill the proper paper work. Once filling out the paper work, we were handed passes. With these passes, our future visits here will bypass the paperwork process. The staff members were very helpful during this process. To shoot at this range it’s $ 15 for unlimited use of range. You get a free paper target with your $ 15 payment. There’s no firearm rentals or ammo purchases here, BYOGA (Bring Your Own Guns & Ammo). They rent eye and ear protection, as well sell targets.
Safety here is the #1 priority here. Since this is an outdoor range, always follow the directions of the Range Masters. When changing targets, there’s a cease fire period. During this period, all firearms have to be unloaded and all shooters need to stand behind a red line. You pass that red line, prepare to get lectured. The shooting lanes range from 50 yards to 100 yards. Our group had an assortment of guns; handguns, rifles, and shotguns.
Overall, everyone enjoyed their time here. The Range Masters were very attentive and friendly. I would say that this is my favorite gun range.
