Hours and Scheduled Range Events 

El Dorado Rod & Gun Club is an all volunteer organization.  All of our Range Safety Officers volunteer their time and knowledge in support of the club. Range hours differ from day to day so you must read the club calendar to see the hours of operation for the day you are interested in.  Tuesday’s and Wednesday’s and two Monday's (first and third) a month are Law Enforcement Only days at the rifle and pistol range. Trap Range is open to the public on Wednesdays and Sundays. See the Calendar.

At this time we do not have rental firearms or ammunition sales. You must supply your own firearms and ammunition.
