About GUNTRY West Virginia
Located in Triadelphia at 45 Caliber Drive, GUNTRY West Virginia operates as a state-of-the-art indoor shooting and training center that markets itself with the comforts and amenities of a country club. Open to the public, the facility serves shooters of all experience levels, from first-time visitors who must complete a safety video and digital waiver before arrival to experienced practitioners seeking advanced instruction or holster-draw certification.
The range complex includes multiple 25-yard lanes and 100-yard indoor rifle ranges equipped with camera systems and tablet-style monitors at the 50- and 100-yard marks, allowing shooters to assess hits without retrieving targets. Visitors can rent firearms on-site, purchase ammunition, arrange firearm transfers, and access an online store. Instructional programming through GUNTRY Academy covers semi-automatic pistol courses - including a women-specific introductory class and a second-level course conferring holster-draw certification for use on the range - as well as semi-automatic rifle training that works through multiple scenarios. The instructor roster includes United States Marine Corps combat veterans, former law enforcement officers with decades of Baltimore County and other agency experience, competitive action shooters with 30-plus years of experience, and cadre holding USCCA, NRA, Utah, and MSP-qualified handgun instructor credentials.
Beyond the firing line, the facility houses a full-service café operating most days until evening, with visitors regularly noting items such as crabcake grilled cheese, roasted chicken clubs, ribs, burgers, and pizza. The venue also rents space for private events and gun shows, and offers membership options including dedicated plans for police, fire, and military personnel, alongside a partnership with USCCA.
Day-to-day operations follow a structured reservation system: non-members may book up to 24 hours in advance, payment is required at the time of reservation, and cancellations must occur more than four hours ahead to qualify for a refund. Each lane accommodates two customers, and groups needing three or more lanes must call directly rather than using online booking. First-time guests are advised to arrive 30 to 45 minutes early. The facility is closed Mondays and operates Tuesday through Sunday, with the range open until 9 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and until 7 p.m. on other days; the café closes one hour earlier on weekend evenings.
Visitors frequently praise the knowledgeable and welcoming staff, the cleanliness of the modern facility, and the unexpected quality of the on-site food. However, source material indicates that posted hours have occasionally been inconsistent, leading to confusion for at least one out-of-state visitor who found the facility closed during listed business hours. Additionally, at least one guest reported that the retail pro shop carried limited inventory - primarily apparel, holsters, and cases rather than firearms - during their visit, and another noted a gun-show event skewed toward craft vendors rather than firearms dealers.
