Hey Guys I live about 5 mintues from this range!  It has a beautiful, but small, lake beside it.  If it is sunny and on the weekend and you want to go fishing bring your own rock to stand on.  I thought I would post some pics to let you guys know what your missing in case you haven't been there.  This range is about 5 years old.  It has 25, 50, and 100 yard targets.  There are 2 handicapped benches and about 10 taller benches.  There is never a wait and I am usually there by myself or maybe only 1 or 2 other people.  If you guys want to stop buy and fire off some rounds off exit 34 on I-79 let me know and I will run down.  I would love to have some other ar enthusists to shoot with.  I was down there today shooting my ar for the first time!  GREAT DAY!  The noveske really exceeded my expectations!

Nice range.


Thanks! I graduated with a degree in Landscape Architecture and we were thought that a space is only as good as the use it recieves.  It is really unfortunate that this beautiful range does not get use.  Right behind those picture is the Wallback Lake, bring your gun and a pole!

exit 34 on 79, that puts you just north of Charleston correct???  I'm in Elkins, long jog for me, but looks nice may stop off there sometime I have a reason to be down there

Now if the DNR would just put in a range for us in Randolph county we'd be set  There are so many places you could put a range in here.  I always swore, if I owned a lot of land, I'd donate it to the DNR just to build a range on

Yea, I own 147 acres, but no since donating when the DNR took care of it for it.  Yea is is just 34 miles north of Charleston, and no one ever has a reason to be down my way.   I went to WVU with a bunch of guys from Elkins.  You probably never heard of a guy named Luke Head.

Glad to see that range is still up and doing well.  I have been there a couple of times but it has been a few years.  I grew up not too far away and remember laughing when I heard they were going to put in a lake!

Where exactly did you grow up at?  Clay or surrounding county? Yea, man it is like a puddle compared to the Summersville Lake.  We can't get nothing good around here.  Although I am thinkful for it, and it is small enough so cops and DNR don't want to patrol it all the time.  The summersville lake has DNR like crazy.

Awesome! I am tired of having a beautiful range with no one to use it.  I took that pick on a Saturday afternoon and as you can see I am the only one there.  Where you located?
