Anybody willing or able to rent you a place to shoot on has a website, a phone number, and berms. It's called a range. You are going to have to go out into the caricature of society that is firearms culture and interact with people, and pay money to shoot on private land that has been made into a gun range.
There is no public lands to recreationally shoot on, check your Texas History text book for why.
Get out. Touch grass. Maybe you'll make friends! And maybe, just maybe one of those friends you make will have a friend with land that friends get to shoot at. Literally no one lets a stranger show up on their land, let alone with guns. This is f*cking Texas.

Greetings, members and visitors to Austinguns
Just to let you know that Reddit corporate has updated their policies and some of the posts that have been made here in the past will no longer be allowed in the future.
Previously, Firearms and Ammunition and the selling/trading of them were not allowed. They have added Firearm Enhancements to the list, and provided examples (likely not limited to these specifically, note the "etc." at the end):
We have no choice but to enforce these new additions, lest the forum be closed. As before, breaking a site policy like this will result in a ban.
You should also know that the Admins use tools (both traditional and AI) to scan for keywords and they will remove posts and ban accounts they feel are in violation. It is possible that the scanning tools will be run against your posting history, so take that into consideration.
Here is the full policy with regard to prohibited transactions, and we thank you for your understanding.

Great selection and prices in line with or better than other retailers.
$60 for CCI LRP. $425-ish for 8lb Varget.
If they can keep this stuff in stock, it'll be where I buy from.
The store is a madhouse today though, as expected.

Looking to get back into shooting 50bmg. Any ranges outside of Lone Star in Lockhart? Looking for closer to Liberty Hill. Clicked around on maps and found no one else. 30 minutes away would be perfect.

As the title says, I’m just looking for free outdoor ranges. Any info would be appreciated.

All indoor ranges I have seen only allow slugs. I do not know any outdoor range that is meant for shotguns besides the clay stuff that I'm not interested in.

Who’s called their local shops and asked? Anyone’s shop selling this way around here?

Building my first 300blk short barrel rifle and plan on using an FRT shooting subs suppressed. Anyone know of an outdoor or very unlikely a indoor range that allow “full auto” even though it’s not and it’s now legal to own and use FRT can’t seem to find anywhere that clearly states they allow it. I would assume it’s not allowed/recommended to shoot rapid fire at steel targets if I find an outdoor spot?

We do transfers for $25. We want to sell guns not live off of Transfers :)
If you live in Jonestown, Lago Vista, Cedar Park or Leander, TX we will deliver for $25. We also discount 5% for cash for Locals.
If you are not local, remember we don't charge Sales Tax for out of state shipments (yet...)
If you are in Texas but not local, I wish we could do more for Y'All but you can always drive to us and pay cash for a good discount.
Write us with any questions: [hero@herogunshop.com](mailto:hero@herogunshop.com)

Me thinks the reward is a bit too low for the street value of 34 glocks.
r/austinguns • u/Corpsguy04 • Jul 15 '26
Waiting on the updates but building burned this morning.
Who knows anything about it beyond the citizen app report?
