Dallas Pistol Club

Dallas Pistol Club has been running since the early 1920s, originally as the Trinity Rifle and Pistol Club. It became the Dallas Pistol and Revolver Club in 1941, then moved to its current Carrollton location at 1830 W. Beltline Rd (between Luna Rd and MacArthur Blvd) in 1976 under its current name.

This is a private, members-only facility, but matches run almost every weekend and are open to the public—non-members pay a $30 match fee plus $5 range use fee (members pay $15-$25 depending on age bracket, seniors get discounts down to $5).

The outdoor ranges operate sunrise to sunset (check legal daylight hours on their website). The indoor air gun range runs 24/7 when Team Shooting Stars isn't holding practice or matches.

• •Important ammo restrictions: NO centerfire rifles. NO 5.56/223, 5.7×28, or .22 Hornet rounds. NO PCC rifles. Only .22LR rimfire rifles permitted on rifle ranges. Handguns with approved cartridges work on most ranges except the air gun range.

• •Air-conditioned clubhouse with limited snack/beverage vending
• •Air-conditioned restrooms with hot/cold running water
• •Two designated safe areas (unload firearms here, not in vehicle trunks)
• •24/7 video surveillance
• •Computer-controlled automatic gate with limited access
• •Cold range enforced at all times—no loaded firearms except on firing lines or as concealed carry
