Announcements / Events
Attention Range Fans,
Summer is upon us, and it is getting hot out there.
Recently we have had a few people show up in Flip Flops, which we all should know is not safe on the range. One customer received a burn on his foot because of this.
Remember that safety is our number one goal to everyone so please wear closed-toed shoes or bring a pair of shoes to change in to when you come to the range. This is a standard safety policy across the industry, and we will be enforcing it here.
So let’s all have a fun and safe summer and as always we appreciate your business.

First time out here today and I brought a young lady that hasn’t fired a handgun before. This place was phenomenal! Dave and Tony were absolutely amazing, friendly, and spent way more time with us then they had to, just to make her feel comfortable and confident. I cannot recommend this place enough and it was wonderful to get to visit with the range guys. I will definitely be back!

Super friendly and professional. it's a small family owned place where you can have a non stressed session. This is unlike a lot of other places where the Range Safety Officer barks commands.

I couldn’t be more pleased with this range, especially for my wife’s first time out. Tony and his crew really involve themselves with their visitors. It’s a highly professional, but highly welcoming experience. And you can’t beat the fees.

I came here for my LTC qualification. I ended up having an amazing time and chatting with my instructor for an Hour afterwards! This was by far my most hospitable range experience. I will definitely be coming back! It is not possible to recommend this place any higher.

I have been to several ranges in the area and will always go back to Lonestar. The service is amazing, the range is clean and well managed, the prices are very reasonable but most of all the people - Tony you are so helpful and so friendly! I had my daughter with me and it was almost closing time yet you still took the time to come give pointers and teach better techniques and stayed late to make sure she would do good on her proficiency the next. She got 98 out of 100!If you are looking for anything from Basic Firearms 101 to LTC class or just a great place for target practice- Lonestar is the place.

My 1st time at Lonestar, today. Everyone was friendly. RSO explained the pistol range etiquette and even went and put up my target while I unloaded my range bag. Owner came by and was incredibly friendly and we chatted while I was packing up. Definitely be back and bringing the kids too.Thank you Tony, Dave and Kenn for being such a welcoming crew

Great place to shoot range masters stand back and watch everyone and they are willing to talk and answer questions without bugging shooters range limits only enforced when there is a line which rarely happens big handgun range and there in the process of putting in a larger rifle range they also watch every park of the range including the parking lot it’s overall the best range I have found

Made our way here late today. And I wasn’t looking forward to being in the heat. But these guys made it all worth while! I haven’t shot a gun in 10 years or longer. And I learned more about guns in the hour & 1/2 we were there than I’ve learned in my 48 years! THANK YOU Kenn, Toni & Eric for your services today. I will DEFINITELY BE BACK! I still have SO MUCH to learn from you guys! 😁

My daughter and I took the basic gun class and loved the experience. Tony is such an easy-going, uber-knowledgable, and so loves doing what he does.....it is quite obvious!! We plan to take the LTC class w/ Tony soon and will call his range “home” for working on our skills. 5-⭐️ establishment.

My husband and I love LR&A! Tony, the, owner, is generous with his knowledge and his range. We took our LTC class there last month and Tony offered to let me come up and shoot a couple different guns to find the right one for me to carry. I was able to put 200 rounds through a Bersa Thunder 380 which I then went out and purchased. Everyone we’ve met there is friendly, polite, and safe. The range is well kept and clean. We really feel like we were shooting in our own backyard. The icing on the cake is the range fee which is dirt cheap for a day of #rangetherapy. I’m looking into some of the classes Tony offers, especially drawing from concealment. For now, I can’t wait to pick up another box of rounds and get some more #rangetime under my belt.

Very inviting and safe environment. The owner is very knowledgeable and willing to help you. I stopped in to sight in my hunting rifle and the owner himself took his time to set up a bore sight kit to start, and then continued to help on the range doing some tweaking until I was dead on. I highly recommend stopping in. By far the best range in central texas.
