Associated Gun Clubs of Baltimore – Marriottsville, MD

The rifle ranges at AGC offer shooters access to both 100-yard and 200-yard lanes for target practice and accuracy training. These outdoor ranges are optimized for a range of rifle types and calibers, giving marksmen the ability to zero scopes, test loads, or hone precision shooting techniques. Covered benches allow year-round use regardless of weather, while target backers and range markers help shooters track their progress. Spotting scopes, sandbags, and shooting rests are allowed for a more refined experience. New shooters are encouraged to participate in orientation sessions to understand range commands and etiquette. Safety officers patrol regularly and provide guidance for a smooth, responsible experience. Competitive shooters can join events and league nights that focus on long-range shooting. The environment is welcoming to hobbyists, hunters, and tactical professionals alike. For those seeking a place to improve marksmanship skills or prepare for hunting season, the AGC rifle ranges provide an exceptional platform.

The shotgun fields at AGC deliver a challenging and exciting experience for trap and skeet enthusiasts. These well-maintained fields are outfitted with regulation-size layouts and automatic clay target throwers. Participants rotate through stations to test their accuracy with both single and double target sequences. The trap field launches targets away from the shooter, while skeet involves crossing targets at different angles. It’s an engaging way to sharpen reflexes, improve hand-eye coordination, and enjoy time with fellow sportsmen. Weekly events, club tournaments, and open practice times make it easy for members to stay involved. Beginners can take advantage of coaching sessions or attend one of the “Try Shotgun” days hosted regularly. The facilities are designed for both casual recreational use and competitive training. With full supervision and on-site staff, safety and fair play are always ensured. Whether you’re warming up for a competition or just enjoying a weekend shoot, the shotgun ranges are ready for action.
