Description
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully operational, veteran-owned shooting range on over 300 contiguous acres just outside Pueblo, Colorado. Republic Shooting Range is a well-established, turn-key facility with a strong regional reputation and significant income potential. Located southeast of Pueblo, CO with easy access to Southern Colorado’s growing population centers, this property is ideal for investors, outdoor entrepreneurs, or organizations seeking a large-scale shooting sports complex.
The facility offers an impressive portfolio of ranges and features, including 12 pistol and rifle bays ranging from 25 to 200 yards, a designated steel bay, and a long-range shooting section extending out to 1,000 yards (available by appointment). It also includes a 12-station sporting clays course, a 5-stand, a wobble trap platform, and a tactical airsoft shoot-house—perfect for training, recreation, and events.
Republic Shooting Range generates income through multiple channels: hourly range fees, sporting clays and trap shooting, airsoft rentals, and a flexible membership program. Membership options include individual, couples, and family plans, along with prepaid clay target bundles available in bulk. The facility is structured to accommodate everyone from first-time shooters to seasoned professionals, with required safety protocols, on-site instructional videos, and private training opportunities.
Beyond its existing range operations, the property offers exceptional untapped potential. A full commercial kitchen facility, in excellent working condition, is already in place but has not yet been used to its full capacity—opening doors for food service, event hosting, or expansion into hospitality. The 300+ acres also offer outstanding recreational opportunities, including hunting (whitetail and mule deer, elk, black bear, turkey, and small game), ATV riding, horseback riding, and more. Located in Colorado Game Management Unit (GMU) #128, the property could also qualify for a Landowner Preference Program application for obtaining big game hunting tags. The terrain and setting make it ideal for wilderness training, trail systems, guided hunts, or retreats.
What sets Republic Shooting Range apart is its room for growth. Historically, the business has relied almost entirely on word-of-mouth referrals, despite its broad offerings and quality reputation. A new owner with a strategic marketing plan could rapidly scale visibility, increase memberships, and establish new revenue streams—from training programs and competitions to events, food and beverage services, and more.
Strategically located off Undercliffe Road in Avondale, the property features secure gated access, multiple covered shooting lines, restrooms, and a clubhouse with room for group gatherings, instruction, or expanded operations. The combination of existing infrastructure and raw land creates a rare platform for further commercial or recreational development.
Whether you're a shooting enthusiast seeking to own a flagship range or an investor looking to grow a diversified outdoor recreation business, Republic Shooting Range offers unmatched value, flexibility, and future potential in Southern Colorado.
