Start An Outdoor Shooting Range Business

An outdoor shooting range refers to any area designed and operated for rifles, shotguns, pistols, or any site for the exclusive use of archery or air guns.

Owning a commercial shooting range can be a profitable business venture. According to reports, the shooting ranges market will cross $38.6 Billion in a decade.

The market growth is attributed to firearm owners, archery fans, and even hunters realizing the importance of practicing at shooting ranges to help them improve accuracy.

To start the gun range business, research and learn the applicable law in your area and research the licensing and zoning requirements. Joining the National Shooting Sports Foundation could help you find new customers and publicize your business.
