A fire occurred four days ago at “The Range” in Stafford and luckily, no one was hurt. My guess is that the facility will be out of commission for quite some time, if not permanently. If so, it leaves the Fredericksburg area with zippo indoor ranges. Here’s the news article:

“Fire crews rushed to a Stafford County shooting range after flames tore through the roof and trapped employees, authorities said. The Stafford County Fire and Rescue Department said units were dispatched around 1:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 8, for reports of a structure fire at The Range on Potomac Creek Drive.

Firefighters arrived within five minutes and found flames shooting from the roof of the single-story building, officials said. Crews immediately struck a second alarm to bring in additional personnel. Inside the building, some workers found themselves trapped on the roof. Firefighters quickly raised ladders to rescue them, according to officials. Everyone inside was safely evacuated, and no injuries were reported.

Crews worked to contain the fire while conducting searches of the building. The Fredericksburg Fire Department assisted on scene, while units from Quantico Fire and Emergency Services and Fauquier County Fire and Rescue covered other calls in the county. The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the Stafford County Fire Marshal’s Office.”

I hate to say it but that place has been a safety disaster waiting to happen for years. My not so humble uneducated opinion , of course.
It always seemed "dirty" to me. I could be wrong. I havent been there in about 5 years though.

You’re on the money. Place was always somewhat decrepit and freezing in the winter. I was there once and a fire broke out in the backstop area that filled the range with smoke. It was put out quickly and instead of closing to investigate, shooting immediately resumed. Can’t tell you how many times I was muzzled by idiots there too. The real problem is that if The Range goes under the Fredericksburg, Stafford, King George, etc. will be left with NO indoor range. Greentop to the south and Sharpshooters up north will be the two closest indoor ranges and both are a haul. Seems the future of indoor gun ranges in Virginia appears to bleak.
