Fresno Rifle & Pistol Club is a non-profit outdoor shooting range established in 1929, on 220 acres at the base of the Sierra foothills at 15687 Auberry Road in Clovis, California. It sits where the Friant-Kern Canal crosses Auberry Road, about 15 minutes from Fresno and Clovis. The range is open to the public; membership is not required.
Three ranges are open to the public. Range 2 is a Rifle & Pistol Range with 22 benches, paper targets from 3 to 100 yards and steel from 15 to 100 yards. Range 3, the Pistol / Rimfire Steel Gallery (also called the "Hot Range"), has 22 benches and steel from 15 to 100 yards. Range 4 is a shotgun range with a trap machine (Bay 1) and stationary steel (Bay 2), out to 50 yards. A Bay 1 archery range (Range 7) with blocks and 3D targets, out to 50 yards, is also listed for public and members. Annual members additionally get Range 6, a 44-bench rifle and pistol range with paper from 3 to 230 yards and steel at 195, 230, 325 and 400 yards.
Five clubs hold matches on club ranges: Central California Pistol League (USPSA and Steel Challenge), Kings River Regulators (cowboy action), Fresno High Power Club (prone high power and F-Class, 300 to 800 yards), Sierra Pistol Club (big bore and 22LR metallic silhouette) and Smoking Thunder Muzzle Loaders (black powder). New club members are welcome and most matches welcome new shooters. Range 7 Bay 2 and Range 8LE (4 bays, 30 yards wide, out to 100 yards) are reserved for law enforcement, agency and NRA instructor training.
Training includes CCW classes approved for the City of Fresno, Fresno County and Madera County, NRA courses, and a basic firearm course for new shooters. Classes have limited seating and are paid in advance at the Range House. The Range House rents ear and eye protection, rifle rests, sand bags, spotting scopes, staplers and target frames, and sells targets, chamber flags, ear plugs, drinks, snacks and club apparel. The club does not sell or rent firearms or ammunition, so shooters bring their own. Pets and service animals are allowed under a written pet policy.

Plan your visit
What to bring: Valid government-issued photo ID (military ID not accepted; held at the Range House during your visit), your firearm, ammunition (no steel core in rifle), chamber flags ($2 at Range House), eye and ear protection (rentals available), and a signed waiver.
Ammo policy: No steel-core rifle ammunition. All rifle ammo is checked with a magnet at the Range House; if the magnet sticks to the projectile it is not allowed. Steel casings are fine. Offenders are asked to leave for the day, their profile is flagged and daily fees are forfeited; a second offense bans non-members and their party. Shotgun range is shotguns only. FRPC does not sell or rent firearms or ammunition. No drawing from holsters and no rapid fire (two or more rounds in rapid succession).
Age policy: Minors (under 18) shoot free and are added to a parent or legal guardian's profile. A minor must be accompanied by a parent, legal guardian or adult 21 or older. An adult 21+ may bring a minor without the parent or guardian only if the parent has completed the Minor Agent Release Form. While shooting, a minor is supervised one-on-one by a non-shooting adult close enough to control the firearm.
Rental requirements: FRPC does not rent firearms. Eye protection, ear protection, rifle rests, sand bags, spotting scopes, staplers and target frames can be rented at the Range House; the renter is responsible for damage to rental property.
Dress code: Not specified.
First-timer tips: Sign the online waiver before arriving (required for everyone). Check in at the Range House, show ID, pay the range fee and have rifle ammo checked. Everyone shooting must understand the range rules. Chamber flags are required. The range is open to the public and membership is not needed. Last shooters accepted at 4:00 PM.
