Outdoor Shooting Range in North Texas — Tactical Bays, 150-Yard Rifle, Holster Draw

The Outdoor Shooting Range North Texas Shooters Drive To

Ten private tactical bays and a 150-yard rifle bay on 11 acres in Trenton, TX — 25 minutes north of McKinney, 45 from Dallas. Holster draw, movement, rapid fire, and steel in every bay. RFID access for members; day passes Monday–Friday and weekend afternoons.

An Outdoor Gun Range Lets You Train. An Indoor Lane Lets You Stand Still.

Most of DFW's shooting ranges are indoor lanes: a bench, a target carrier, a rules card that starts with "no drawing from the holster." That's fine for zeroing a red dot. It is not where skill gets built.

Rooftop is an outdoor shooting range built for the work an indoor lane forbids. In every one of our ten tactical bays you can draw from the holster, move between positions, shoot rapid strings, transition between targets, and run steel — the same reps competitive shooters, law enforcement, and armed professionals put in before a match or a qualification. You're not sharing a firing line, and you're not waiting for a cease-fire to go set a target. The bay is yours.

Read the full list of what's permitted (and the caliber restrictions) on our range rules page.

Ten Tactical Bays. One 150-Yard Rifle Bay. Eleven Acres.

Ten 40-Yard Tactical Bays

Each bay is a walled, private training space stocked with paper target stands, steel targets, moveable barricades, VTAC walls, barrels, tank traps, and a PRS barricade. Build a stage, isolate a skill, or run a department drill without asking anyone for permission.

150-Yard Rifle Bay

Carbine, practical rifle, and intermediate marksmanship out to 150 yards — the distance most outdoor ranges near Dallas don't offer. Rifle bay access is reserved for members who have passed the rifle bay qualification.

Autonomous RFID Access

Members enter with an RFID keycard and run their own session. No range officer standing behind you, no shared line, no cease-fire cadence. It's a trust-based model, and it's why the shooters who train here keep coming back. Every feature, bay by bay: Range Features.

Built for Shooters Who Already Know Why They're Here

  • Competitive shooters preparing for PCSL pistol, rifle, and 2-Gun. Rooftop is the home of PCSL in North Texas — monthly matches run on these same bays.

  • Law enforcement. Departments and agencies across DFW use Rooftop for qualification shoots, SWAT and tactical-unit training, K9 work, and full-facility rental. See the law enforcement page.

  • Outside instructors who need a real outdoor bay — steel, barricades, holster work — to run their own classes. See bay rentals.

  • Serious armed citizens who want to train the way the professionals above train, and who are past the point of an indoor lane.

If you're looking for a first-time experience, a rental counter, or a birthday-party range, Rooftop isn't built for that — and we say so on purpose.
