P2K Range

Avoid this dump and the extremely rude employees at all cost. If I could give negative stars I’d give 5 negative. been here twice and will never be back, first time there they were rude and treated my fiancée and I like we were in their way for coming in. I asked about a rifle that I have been looking to buy and they basically told me to go somewhere else that wanted my business. The second time I went they would not let me shoot my long rifle on the 100 yrs range unless I qualify on the 25 yard first. Got there at 1:15 only 2 guys on 100 yard range but still made to wait for pistol range with a high caliber rifle. At 3:30 after noticing that 4 lanes had been open for over 40 minutes I questioned the staff as to why we were not paged on the beeper they provide at check in, they had different answers between all e employees, they forgot to page us pure and simple. finally got a lane on the short range at 3:40. Loaded my rifle fired 2 shots and cease fire was called 15 minutes later were allowed to return to the lanes. Fired 3 more shots and cease fire called again. Announcement stated the range is now closed for the day. When I went to check out they charged me for a full hour and we’re extremely rude about saying it wasn’t their fault and they don’t pro rate. They told me to come earlier next time. When I pointed out that I had checked in at 1:30 they argued and told me I was a liar. Meanwhile they had my ID and had written down 1:30 as my check in. The range itself is very messy, brass had to be kicked out of my lane just to stand at the bench. Very unsafe, my guess was about 5 days worth of brass on the floor. the light is terrible for indoor shooting, and the staff is extremely rude. Thus is not a place I will go back to, nor would I recommend it to a friend. There are far better ranges in San Diego with much better, cleaner, usable lanes, the staff at p2k is by far the rudest group of people that I have come across, and they are not very knowledgeable in the firearms world. This place is a joke the people working are absolutely rude. avoid this place at all cost

Before I start, you might want to grab a pen and a piece of paper, because this might get a lil confusing. It was just before Christmas and I was looking for a particular gun as a present to myself. After striking out at the gun stores close to where I live, I decided to look online. After a bit of searching, I came across P2K Range’s website and they had the gun I was looking for and the price was even less than the MSRP. I was so excited that I called them to check if they had them in stock and if the price was a sale price. The lady that I spoke with (I didn’t get her name) said that they didn’t have any in stock, didn’t know if they were going to be getting any more in and said that they didn’t do orders.

I was kinda bummed after that and decided to return to the internet to find the gun. One day I was out in El Cajon and I had some time to burn so I decide to check out P2K. I spoke to the guy that was behind the counter (I didn’t get his name either) and he confirmed that they didn’t have any in stock, but that if the gun was on the Ca Roster of Handguns, i could order it from their site and that it would take 7 – 10 business days for the gun to arrive. He went online and confirmed that the gun was on the Ca Roster. I went to the P2K site and placed an order for the gun. The receipt stated that they would call when the gun had arrived.
About 2 and half weeks had gone by and I was getting anxious. So I decided to give them a call to check on the status of my order. I spoke with a lady (i’m pretty sure that it was the same lady that I had spoken with before. I really need to start asking for names :)) and she told me that they have now way of tracking orders and that orders sometimes take up to 5 weeks and sometimes longer. I was getting a good deal so I went back to waiting. After talking with a few friends about the wait, I decided to email another local gun store about the gun and how long it would take to order. They said that gun was on back order, but that the manufacturer would be caught up soon. At this point I was OK with the waiting for my gun to come in.
At the 4 week point, I received an email from the other gun store telling me that they would have 3, of the gun I wanted in stock and if i wanted them to reserve one. I called P2K to check on my order and a lady (a different one than the first one) told me that I couldn’t get my order, because that gun had been taken off the Ca Roster. I explained to her that I had placed my order before it was taken off the list and she said that I needed to have owned the gun before the roster change. She stated that the only way I’d be able to purchase a gun that was not on the Ca Roster is if I was a Law Enforcement Officer with a letter from my agency, on agency letter head, stating that the gun was to be used on duty. She is partially right on the latter. At that pointed, I had her credit back my payment and I contacted the other gun store and they said that the gun I wanted was on the Ca Roster which I checked and confirmed. So I went down to their store and I’ll be picking up my gun in 2 weeks. The staff at P2K Range, that I dealt with, might have given me conflicting information and wasted my time, but they were courteous.

Had my birthday here last night with 5 girlfriends. We are all first time shooters. The girls in the shop were super helpful and patient while we learned. Susan was AMAZING and really walked us through step by step… she even came in and assisted each of us since we were pretty nervous! I would recommend this place to any newbie who wants to learn! they even threw in a free T Shirt for my birthday! Thanks P2K!

Staff working here a real friendly and fun to make business with, my second time coming to this place and I would definitely come back over and over again.

My adult daughter asked me to take her to the range today to teach her how to shoot. She had heard about Gun Mart and suggested we go there. I read the reviews and said, «No thanks.» Instead, we went to P2K. Everyone there was amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. What a great experience. The place was immaculate, their equipment worked great, and the prices were excellent (half off during daylight savings week.). We will definitely be doing this again. On the ride home my daughter asked why it took so long to do this. I told her it was because I didn’t know of a good range nearby. Problem solved. P2K is now my place to shoot. Thanks Riss and staff.

We live in Pacific Beach and this is our go-​to gun range in San Diego, mostly because of the fact that they have an indoor range AND an outdoor shotgun range. The staff is always really nice and helpful (Dylan on the shotgun range was AWESOME yesterday), and the entire place feels very safe and well organized. We’ve brought several friends and family here and everyone seems to appreciate the safety test beforehand making a nice transition for many who have never gone shooting before. We’ve also purchased a gun here and rented a handful of different guns and have always been very satisfied with all.

I’m a believer! Love at first sight does exist! I was very eager and nervous about shooting for the first time. One if my friends told me about this place and I have to say that I loved everything about it. We took a safety test before and went over our wrong answers (1 each). They explained everything very thoroughly. Once inside the range, one of the safety officers showed us the do’s and don’ts and answered all of my questions. We got the starter packet and even purchased additional ammo. Overall a great experience. I will definitely be back.

Held a surprise birthday party for my husband. The staff was amazing accommodating my party of 20 especially Candice. Many of my friends that had never been shooting before will definitely be returning as I think they have caught the bug. Thanks P2K! We had a blast.

I’m a beginner shooter and was a little hesitant to go shooting at an unknown range. Many places seem shady, sort of like it’s sombody’s backyard with no rules and it’s super weird for a new person to show up.
P2K is exactly the opposite! For all new members there a brief orientations and test that’s required, so everybody know the place is leggit.
Tons of super helpful staff. Multiple ranges. What’s not to like!

Over priced and over bearing. This is a range for someone who has never seen a gun before. They make you «qualify» to use the 100yd range on the 25yd range. How do you do that when trying to sight in a .308 with a new scope? No thanks. Plus the 2 hour wait.

Dennis was very helpful and knowledgeable with the firearms. The girls had a blast. Besy money spent. We will definitely get family membership

My cousin saw a deal on groupon and asked me to come with her to a shooting class. I was very nervous, and was the type of person who would never go near a gun. I was terrified of them! But my cousin gave me no choice, so I went with her.
Dennis roman was our instructor. He was very informative and made this day — not so terrifying. I actually learned a lot about shooting, as a sport.
After the training we were able to go out to the shooting range. Everything was guided with care, it was very personalized… About 5 to a group. It was a class of about 17 and we rotated in groups of 5 or 6 … We got to shoot the hand gun, shot gun and now my favorite, the Rifle.
The trainers made my first time very comfortable. They walk you through every step, how to load and shoot. It’s a very safe environment and the staff is great!
Dennis was very hands on as well, he helped me hit a bullseye with the Rifle! For someone who was terrified of guns, I would definitely come back to P2K… It was a life changing experience, and I’m glad that my cousin forced me to go.
Thank you P2K for making my experience amazing! You changed my perspective on guns. And I appreciate the quality of the sport.
PS — Dennis. I will never forget who Annie Oakley is!

I drove out to this place because I had heard good things. Honestly, don’t waste your time… they do range breaks to inspect guns which is concerning, they could very easily just send the safety officer in to stand behind people as they were firing without disrupting the entire line. The staff isn’t particularly helpful either and everything in the building is way overpriced. There’s plenty of other ranges you can deal with this nonsense without the 30 minute drive.

I have been here a few times now and I really like the place. The facility is large enough to handle a lot of people. I never have to wait too long for a shooting bay. The staff is very friendly and the check-​in/​safety check process is simple.
I do want to give a shout out to Sarah. I went in last night with a few friends. A group of people came in, clearly for the first time, just to shoot some guns. No problem with that but they were not being safe. There was a point where one of the guys took the gun out of the bay and was unknowingly pointing the gun directly at people.
Sarah was there in a heartbeat. She worked with the group and made sure that they understood what the safety rules are and stayed with them to make sure they weren’t being stupid. This was not a group that made gun safety a top priority but Sarah made sure it was being enforced. Definitely made me feel better about being there.
Prices are great, facility is great and safety is a number one priority for everyone that works there. I am definitely going to be coming back here more often.

Best indoor range in town. I really enjoy the ¹⁰⁰⁄₅₀ yard rifle range for precision shooting. The facility is clean and the range areas are nice and brightly lit. The range areas are not too cold and the staff are friendly and attentive. The prices are fair and parking is plenty. Things to note are: there is a cease fire break to set up the long range targets. Not a big deal and the time is not accounted for in the hour charge. My go to indoor range, always leave satisfied and having fun.

They have 100 yard ranges, multi-​person trap shooting, and the prices are good. I’m looking forward to getting a few blokes together to do the trap shooting. You can rent the shotguns there.
You can shoot anything under .50, including rifles, and most ammo that you bring as long as it’s not steel. They have rentals as long as you’re with a partner.
However, I did have a mediocre experience the last time I visited. I came here to sight a new scope and the website specifically says that their personnel will help with sighting new scopes. I asked at the counter when I signed in and the girl said that they don’t help but could give suggestions and I could ask the staff in the range area. She gave me a target made for for sighting and that’s it. There were no staff in the range area to ask.

Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday the trap range is closed until 2:00 pm. Nice indoor and outdoor, range and great staff.

I drive an extra 40 mins to go here just because everyone here has always been so nice and cordial to me and my guests. They treat you like family and are always very informative.
Also they have a awesome 100yd indoor range for rifles. Best I’ve seen yet.
And best of all, no egomaniacal gun culture here. No ego = good old fashioned shooting fun.

In all fairness the range is a good size, with a decent indoor range and fairly good size outdoor range. Based on the facilities themselves I would go with four stars. The one star is completely based on the customer service.
We signed up for trap shooting, got on the waiting list, and was told it would be over an hour. Considering how busy it was that made sense. We knew our number and checked to see where the number was at on occasion. Our number came up and my group went up to shoot. The range supervisor, Crystal, told use she called for us and took us off the list. The numbers are posted in large numbers, it made no sense to call us when our number wasn’t even close to our turn. I spoke with an employee inside about the situation, she talked to Crystal and she assured that we would be slotted in next.
The next round came up and Crystal refused to let us shoot, saying she would only put us on the list in the back of the line. I could see there being a possible misunderstanding the first time, but an outright refusal to abide to what they agreed to after being told we could shoot is something I never encountered before ever in customer service.
We talked with the manager, which after waiting 20 minutes to address our issue in between other tasks, told us that Crystal had been working there for years and knew what she was doing.
While I would love a reliable place to trap shoot, I would never go back to this business on pure principle.

Attempted to go to an outdoor range but it was raining so we came here instead for the first time because it was nearby and it wasn’t raining.
PROS:
1. They have an indoor and outdoor range.
2. Plentiful of parking
3. Clean bathrooms and washing stations
4. They sell equipment, clothes, accessories, snacks, and drinks
5. Friendly staff
6. They have two indoor ranges, one goes up to 100yards, second goes to 100 – 150 yards.
7. They have computer screens that show your target up close so you can see where your bullets are hitting. It is only an extra $ 5 fee.
8. They provide tables/​stools for each lane.
9. They have gun rentals. But you must have at least two people to rent a gun.
CONS:
1. They make you take a safety quiz by reading a pamphlet book and answering TRUE/​FALSE questions. If you fail, you must re-​answer them,
2. You can only shoot shotguns in the outdoor range, lame. We all had rifles.
3. They cease fire every hour and everyone must exit the rooms and wait for about 10 – 15 minutes.
4. No food or drinks allowed inside the rooms.
5. The long range room (100−150yards) does not have automatic target adjusters, you must wait until cease fire before you can change it.
6. Each shooting booth/​lane has very limited space.
7. It can get really expensive. Starts off at $ 14 first hour, then $ 10 each hour after.
