By far the best place to get your CWP everyone is so helpful. They offer a ton of diffent classes to further your knowledge and use of using a gun. Everyone that works here is great highly recommend!
Awesome staff, helpful, knowledgeable and courteous- would highly recommend for ALL of your firearm and training needs
Great facility and staff! Took the CWP class with Dave Peninger and talk about a top notch instructor! Very informative and patient with less experienced shooters! Will definitely be back to use the range! Thanks for a great day!
Great place to go to take stress out!!! Staffs are nice and cute doggie🥳❤️
Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. Good place for CWP training, and a good range to have some fun with the pew-pews.
This is where I learned to shoot and continue to practice. The staff is very nice and the range is great.
Kevin did a great job at the CWP class that I attended Sunday. Very thorough! The range is
This is a great range and Kevin’s CWP class is informative and worth the time and investment.
Great indoor range. I’ve been going to to Kilo Charlie’s since it opened I love it my teen daughters love it, friendly environment, safe and clean. I recently took my CWP class with Kevin great teacher great class.
Just got finished with the CWP class today. Kevin is an awesome instructor that made the class fly by! Very knowledgeable and friendly staff willing to take the time to answer any questions you may have. If your looking to take any firearms training or just a place to come shoot I definitely recommend coming here.
Well organized and efficient training course. Everything went smoothly & the instructor was very clear with all information
I would like to thank everyone at Kilo Charlie!! My wife has been a nurse for a long time, she had to have a few surgeries and not able to go back to work. She so misses the interaction with her patients and coworkers and had become withdrawn and just stay home. But thanks to EVERYONE at Kilo Charlie she has found something she loves to do! Goes about everyday and the Staff has helped her so much and given back her confidence!! Thanks to the Staff ...She even got her CWP today!! Thank you Kilo Charlie I have my wife back!! Wish I could give 100 stars!!
My wife and I signed up for an intro to pistol class so she could learn the basics and I could have a refresher course on it and we had a great time. We will definitely be coming back here when we buy our first pistol (even though we have NC licenses and have to pick it up in NC) and will be coming back to use the range regularly after we do! Would highly recommend if you’ve never shot a pistol before and need to learn!
Good place good people!
Very educational and helpful. It was over all a lot of fun.
I have only had good experiences dealing with this range, fast and easy FFL transfer to start with, great CWP class, and I will continue coming back to practice at the range
Recently took the CWP class with my wife and father-in-law. We were all thoroughly pleased with the curriculum and overall experience. Kevin’s knowledge of handguns and their inner workings was impressive and it showed through in the class. The range was clean and efficiently run which was nice. Would definitely recommend Kilo Charlie for range sessions or a CWP class.
Its a nice little range. Friendly staff, close to home, my only complaint is you can only purchase 50 rounds of whichever caliber you need. I understand its hard to get, but Im going to practice and if I have to share 50 rounds with someone, thats hardly enough. Im just getting started.
Great staff and teachers there.
Really enjoyed the class. Learned lots of good information. Kevin was patient and answered all of my questions in the class and at the range. Highly recommend.
I visited this range years ago under a different name. Ill be honest, I didnt care for it back then, but they are under new management now...and it shows! Clean and organized. The range is well lit and comfortable. The prices are great and the staff is friendly! We will definitely go again.
After what we experienced yesterday, I would not recommend Kilo Charlie to anyone. We took a CWP and our instructor had an agreement at 1 pm to have 3 paid (while Im sure at a discount due to volume) lanes so we could qualify but right as our first group of 3 went in, numerous people 20+, showed up and we were told we would have to wait. When you make a business arrangement, you keep it! Our instructor made a business arrangement with our class based on the arrangement you had with him and because you didnt hold up your end of the deal you jeopardized someone elses business reputation. I would expect better from former law enforcement or military. Another range C2C was very accommodating and got us in very quickly to help our instructor save face. We will be going there to shoot! Thank you for showing us your true colors before we wasted our money at your range.
Great shooting range!! My wife and I are new to the area and needed a new place to practice. We liked this place a lot! Friendly staff, well kept range, and fair prices. Not too busy either. We’ve only been a couple times now, but we’ll definitely be back. Highly recommended!
Drove over from Columbia for the Intro to Pistol class with my daughter and a friend and we had a blast! The instructor was helpful, knowledgeable, patient, and answered all our questions. This was my first time ever visiting a shooting range! I will definitely be coming back.
Asked Palmetto State Armory to do a FFL transfer, it was a nightmare. Lie after lie, Sportsmans Warehouse stated they didnt do 3rd party transfers anymore. But yet,, these same companies expect other FFL dealers to accept their transfers. Big box firearm dealers should be boycotted by the smaller gun shops. What a double standard.Then I decided to go to Kilo Charlies and it literally took the guy less than 2 minutes to send his info to the out of state dealer and accept the transfer. I will NEVER deal with big box store firearm dealers again, ever. This will be our go to now for all our firearm needs.
The staff are attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. After qualifying for my CWP, I went there to celebrate. I wanted a new gun. The staff helped me pick a nice 9mm out with a ladies touch of color. They oiled the gun as well. They showed me which maintenance kit to use . My gun is a perfect extension of me!I also love the fact that Ladies can shoot w/o a fee on two days a week! I love this place...please go see for yourself!
Very nice Shop & Very nice and friendly Employees...
This range is amazing. Small & organized, and such friendly staff! I had grown up shooting but my fiancé had never shot a firearm before. The staff were so patient with him & myself and helped us in every which way they could. We’ve decided to make coming to the range a regular thing to keep up on our skills, since it’s so close to home! They even inspired us to purchase our first firearm since they talked with us And made us feel comfortable & confident. Thank you guys so much & we’ll see you soon!!
Excellent venue, clean and well maintained. Reasonably priced, knowledgeable staff. What more do you need?
For someone that has never been to a gun range I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I felt comfortable and cant wait to go back. Definitely interested on taking lessons and feel this would be the best place for me. Thank you!!!!
Great experience, from the time we walked in. The team was friendly and extremely helpful. I explained why I was there with my husband and they did everything they could to make me feel comfortable, from beginning to end. We will definitely be going back very soon. I highly recommend this location to anyone and everyone!!
I can’t say enough about the staff at Kilo Charlie. They are wonderful! Thank you all for the help. Y’all are the BEST!
My wife and I have purchased guns, personal training and taken a CWP class with Kilo Charlie and it was all a top notch experience!
I am a relatively new shooter. Found Kilo Charlies on line and tried it out as it is close to the house. Not as close as others, but I find no need to go anywhere else. I have taken lessons, cwp class and bought guns from Kevin and find all products and services competitive and top notch., He has a great location, facility and staff. I always have questions and he patiently and thoroughly helps me out, every time. Happy to give them a great review.
From New York on vacation. Figured shooting with my Grandpa might be a fun time see as I haven’t done it much. They got me trained and on the range with all the confidence I could have. They gave me some pointers and I got better with ever shot. Thanks again, hope next time I come down I can stop by!!
Kilo Charlie shooting range is the BEST range in the Columbia/Lexington area. The environment is very clean and friendly. Kevin and his staff are truly AMAZING and are very knowledgeable and friendly. I drive from Elgin just to come here because they make me feel comfortable and are able to answer any questions I have. Definitely recommend shooting here especially if you are a beginner shooter like myself.
The only range I’ll do business with. Wether it’s for your CWP or just time on the range Kilo Charlie Team has you covered.
The staff is extremely knowledgeable and welcoming. Being a women, I am sometimes intimidated by larger area competitors. I felt comfortable and really appreciate the time they took to get to know my goals. I will be bringing my girlfriends in for some fun!!
The range is pretty fun and prices are good. The owner is always there and always happy to help with anything he can. Definitely would recommend this shoot range to everyone!
We went today and I will highly recommend this range to everyone! Staff was wonderful and very knowledgeable. I loved the emphasis on safety and ensuring all inexperienced shooters had qualified training! We will definitely be back!
I have been coming to this location for several years. I went to break in a new piece last week and saw it was under new ownership. I was happy to see that. I went in everyone was nice and glad to see me :-). I saw new a piece they had that I had been looking at with a price that was unbeatable. I bought it at an unbeatable price and got 1 hour free range time with the purchase. This is what a shooting range should be!!!!
I absolutely love this place. I’ve done purchased 2 guns from them and also to my cousin by there to purchase 1 as well. Love the staff and talking with everyone especially Carmine, that dude will have you laughing and he also most definitely know how to get your rifle rights for you. Great dude man.....
Great people working there. Very knowledgeable and helpful.
Outstanding range and staff. Kevin is the real deal. I swear by Veteran run businesses and this one is outstanding. No stress shopping and shooting. No better than you attitude that you get at every other range I have ever been to. Just a great big smile and willingness to help you out. This is the range for you..
Great Shooting range! I highly recommend visiting them. Awesome staff. They are very knowledge and have a great selection of firearms! Thank you for taking care of us on our visit today!
Today was my very first time at Kilo Charlie Shooting Range and it was terrific. Very knowledgeable staff, great selection of guns, and awesome indoor range. The new owner Kevin and his staff are truly wonderful and insightful. We will definitely be back!
Went to a ladies night out at the range event tonight with two friends and had a wonderful time. Our shooting experience varied greatly between the three of us, yet all three of us felt that we learned something valuable. Kevin and Dave are exceptional teachers! I would recommend to anyone, from the experienced shooter to the novice!
Great gun shop. Extremely helpful people. It’s not a gun superstore but if you need someone to actually help you with a problem they are the right choice.
Kevin and his staff are very knowledgeable! A veteran owned business with great prices on Black Rifle Coffee, Grunt Style t-shirts, weapons, ammunition, and range time. I stopped by the shooting range just yesterday to purchase Kilo Charlie t shirts for my fiancé and I to show our support! I definitely recommend this business for those looking to learn about shooting and for those who are already familiar.
Took my daughter for the first time. Ahe did well. The staff was great and told her some great tips before we went in. Great price and excellent service!
Very knowledgeable, and friendly. Great shooting instructors and they walk you step by step with whatever you may need. Definitely recommend them they are awesome. They give very good advice about posture, breathing techniques and more!
The best Gun shop and shooting range I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Kevin has been extremely attentive to the specifications of a recent build and the staff in their knowledge is second to none. The establishment is extremely clean and is accompanied with a family atmosphere. I would always recommend kilo Charlie
Kilo Charlie Shooting range use to be defender shooting sports. There is a new owner there and this is a veteran owned business. This place really awesome to shoot at, and they do sell firearms and ammo there. Make sure that you check out there web site as there are some caliber restrictions. This is a 25 yards only shooting range for handguns, not rifles. Great professional courtesy when I visited this place today, and I will certainly be back. Highly recommend. Fading out, nominal.
Very knowledgeable, fair pricing and a great experience all around! Thank you!!
Under new ownership, the personnel here are very nice and helpful. More firearms and other great firearm accessories so its worth just to stop in general to look around. Always a great experience at the range and I highly recommend Range time.
Great customer service and good range to shoot at. The owner is very knowledgeable and very easy to conduct business with. Also has a good selection of apparel with some firearms and ammo as well as firearm accessories for sale. Highly recommended
It was ok. Weird vibe
Was There today and waited go on range and they 3 people go in front of us there doing bad business. Me and my friend waited and hour still didn’t get shoot while other people go in front of us so we walked out.
This is an awesome shooting range and I even got my Concealed Weapons Permit here! Nice selection and very clean. I wouldn’t go anywhere else! Highly recommended.
Very friendly staff. I felt very welcome and comfortable my first time through the door. I would recommend this location for beginner shooters. It is a pistol only range with restrictions on calibers so call ahead to verify what you plan to shoot. I think they have an ok variety on guns and ammo considering the size of their show room. Prices on range time and guns are comparable to other local gun stores in the area. One major plus is, its owned by local veterans.
I have tried frequent this business on 2 different occasions and the customer service I received was horrible. I expected more.
Kevin is very professional and down to earth. I enjoyed my time getting my qualification for my cwp. I love supporting my fellow veterans so it was a no brainer to go to Kilo Charlie. Thanks Kevin!
Great indoor range. Will be back. For outdoor rifle range go to the new Panteao Sportsman’s Club out in Swansea. You guys should work together promoting each other ]!
Very informative with gun into class, patient and instructive on the range- I had a hard time getting the hang of grip, stance, and other issues and Mr. Kevin was excellent at diagnosing and correcting my errors one at a time until I “got it”. I will definitely go back and work on what I’ve learned! Also, I was expecting a two hour private session but ended with a 3.5 hour session- he has great patience with an absolute newbie and instructs according to need rather than time- very impressive!
Nice friendly customer service and veteran owned and operated. Great place to shoot even if you dont own a firearm, they have rentals. Great selection of grunt style shirts and firearms accessories.
Very nice range. Excellent customer service.
Kilo Shooting Range is an excellent place for first time shooters. The staff is very helpful and friendly. They take time to listen to your needs and make sure you are completely satisfied with your experience.
Absolutely loved the gun range -- Kilo Charlie was super clean - very nice and professional owner. I also bought a cool shirt! Will definitely be sending my friends!
This place had a more friendly, at home, attitude and supported your choices. We will definitely come on ladies days! This was a good place to take our CWP!
I took a CWP class here and loved it. The staff are polite and down to earth. I highly recommend Kilo Charlie shooting range
Took the CWP class here. Great atmosphere, friendly and knowledgeable staff. I highly recommend this establishment to everyone. From range time, education or supplies these are your people!!
I went to Kilo Charlie yesterday, 9/5, to see if I could trade in my xd mod2 45 (printing to much) for something a bit smaller for concealing. The staff at the shop were excellent. Very helpful. Wound up getting an xds mod2 9. Great group of guys working there. Would recommend this establishment to any/everyone. Keep up the good work.
Very bad experience here. Note to everyone that comes in here. Dont touch the guns on the wall. Even pointing at one and touch the grip it might fall ( rotate on mount). You will get scolding in front of everyone. You might get multiple rude comments by the staff. Staff at counter could not use the system to put in rounds on a lane or could not even split the bill. I hate its the closest range to my house. In defense of staff it was really busy. Had a bad week and just wanted to blow off steam. But instead I learned to control myself. To be so defensive of their guns. They did not even know which gun that has been returned and which gun was still out on range.
Great range. Awesome people! Also has a good selection of grunt style shirts and firearm accessories.
Took my CWP class here and I loved it. Great range with fans and excellent instructors. I highly recommended Kilo Charlie.
My sister and I went here for my birthday. It was a great experience! Sam was very helpful and patient, and we will be coming back!
My wife and I took the cwp class here. We learned a lot about firearm safety and how and when to defend ourselves. We definitely will be back!!
I highly recommend the Defensive Pistol class at Kilo Charlie Shooting Range. It was informative and fun. I learned additional skills and things I can work on to continue improving. I am better prepared to defend myself and my family thanks to this class. While I hope to never have to fire my weapon in my defense, I believe it’s important to be prepared. I know to be situationally aware and try to avoid suspect situations, but I’d rather be prepared than be a helpless victim should it come to that. Not only was the training highly educational, but I also had a great time. Kevin made it easy to follow and fun. His demeanor was great and not intimidating while also helping me find things I could work on to improve. I highly recommend this (and other) training he does such as low light training which I’ve participated in other times. Getting your CWP is only one step along your path to self-defense. Don’t stop there and trust your life to just what you learned in your CWP class. Get more training and practice frequently. Not only will you be prepared if you are forced to defend yourself from a violent criminal, but you will also have some fun learning and shooting at the range. Another thing to keep in mind is that it’s easier to learn to do things the right way at first than to have to break bad habits later. It’s very nice to work with a local business where they want to help, are happy to answer questions, etc… I enjoy the range and training and really appreciate having someone I can go to for anything firearms related that I might need. Great training, a nice safe range, personal and friendly staff (Nicole is also great!), etc… help make it easy for me to recommend Kilo Charlie Shooting Range and encourage everyone to take advantage of training opportunities they offer!
AWESOME Experience Kevin &&. his staff are so nice and friendly I would recommend everyone to go here I went here for my CWP &&. I’m soooo glad I choose this location... LOOK NO FURTHER GO HERE .!!!!
Great staff. Very accommodating and friendly. Always enjoy time shooting here.
Amazing place... I highly suggest going here... cwp was the best too
I love this range and the employees! Great guys.
My wife and I took the cwp class Jan 5th. We had a great time. The instructor, Kevin, was professional and did a great job teaching. We left the class with more knowledge about firearms, the real reason to acquire a cwp, laws, and so much more. Carmine and Nicole were nice people to talk to and very helpful in any questions we had about the paperwork. Kilo Charlie Weaponry will be seeing us around the range.
Outstanding indoor range
Wonderful experience very knowledgeable and friendly service. Never regret going to kilo Charlie.
Super friendly staff and they helped me get my airsoft weapon sighted in. I would definitely be recommend Kilo Charlie Shooting Range to my friends and family to go shoot. Thank you guys and gals for the help.
Was very professional and we were first in line. For everybody who wants to learn handling weapons should come here. Thanks
Great place to buy and shoot.
Helpful and professional service with great selection of weaponry. Solid indoor facility.
Awesome!
Awesome instructor and very knowledgeable!
