The Shootist in Englewood

The Shootist Pistol Range in Englewood now carries Colorado Caliber 2nd Amendment apparel!

Owner James Peterson is pictured with one of our 2nd Amendment hoodies. Our 2nd Amendment design features the Colorado state flag ... but with our own unique twist! The entire flag is made up of guns.

We're excited to welcome James and his staff at The Shootist to the Colorado Caliber family. You can find our navy blue and black t-shirts at The Shootist, along with our black hoodies. James also carries the 2nd Amendment stickers, which are vinyl and weatherproof.

The Shootist has been an Englewood fixture for a very long time. James took ownership in 2015 and set about making lots of changes. Since taking over the range, James has made continual improvements and investments. Lighting, air filtration, cleanliness, quality of staff, onsite trainers, and product selection lead the list of things James has focused on. And he has lots of big plans for the future!

The range itself is being prepped for a major overhaul, with plans to bring in options for rifle calibers and more intensive training. No rifles are allowed on the range right now, but stay tuned to The Shootist website for announcements regarding when you can bring in your 5.56 and 7.62 to shoot. According to James, 2016 is going to be a very exciting year for The Shootist.

For outside trainers, The Shootist is one of the only places they can bring their students. James and his staff welcome outside trainers with open arms. Properly credentialed trainers can bring their students in to use the classroom or the range.

Members of The Shootist can also take advantage of private and dealer firearms transfers. Some ranges and shops won't do that anymore.

The Shootist has very competitive membership packages. James says he is glad to take daily range fees from customers, but that membership really is the way to go. Fees range from $249 per year for a basic membership; the $299 per year gold membership; and $999 per year for a corporate membership. That's some of the lowest prices in the Denver area! Maybe THE lowest!

A wide variety of training courses is offered at The Shootist. Everything from NRA courses to basic firearms training, concealed handgun permit training, and armed merchant guard certification is offered. Something for everyone!

The range offers 10 lanes of shooting that extend to 25 yards. The range is also divided down the middle to separate 5 lanes on each side of a reinforced wall. This allows The Shootist to offer special training opportunities down range for both civilian and armed professionals.

Of course, The Shootist also offers the best deals on firearms and accessories.

You owe it to yourself to stop by The Shootist and check things out, especially if it has been a while since you visited. For more information, check out their website; or give James a call at 303-781-3382.


 We sincerely appreciate The Shootist for carrying our Colorado Caliber apparel!
