Schaefer Academy: 512-785-4800
Range Rental
Please check the schedule to make sure the range is not in use before heading out.
On a limited basis I am going to change the policy on renting the range and the classroom by making them available for other certified (Licensed) instructors and groups to rent the range and/or the classroom. It will be on a case-by-case basis and when the school doesn't need them for class or private lessons.
For availability please contact us to discuss your needs.
Eye and ear protection are required for anyone present on the range whether they are shooting or not. We do have steel targets and you must wear eye protection as back splatter can and does happen.
NOTE: The use of armor piercing(AP) or steel core ammunition in any caliber is prohibited on the range. If you don't know for sure if your ammo is AP or steel core and you shoot a hole in the plates, we will politely ask you to pay for them and the steel is very expensive.

NRA Firearms Safety Rules
ALWAYS keep the gun pointed in a safe direction.
This is the primary rule of gun safety. A safe direction means that the gun is pointed so that even if it were to go off it would not cause injury or damage. The key to this rule is to control where the muzzle or front end of the barrel is pointed at all times. Common sense dictates the safest direction, depending on different circumstances.ALWAYS keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.
When holding a gun, rest your finger on the trigger guard or along the side of the gun. Until you are actually ready to fire, do not touch the trigger.ALWAYS keep the gun unloaded until ready to use.
Whenever you pick up a gun, immediately engage the safety device if possible, and, if the gun has a magazine, remove it before opening the action and looking into the chamber(s) which should be clear of ammunition. If you do not know how to open the action or inspect the chamber(s), leave the gun alone and get help from someone who does.
