Jefferson Indoor Range is the New Orleans metro's state-of-the-art indoor shooting range, firearms training center, and full-auto experience destination, located on the corner of Airline Highway and Eisenhower Avenue in Metairie. Designed and built from the ground up, the facility combines strict safety - certified Range Safety Officers monitor all shooting at all times - with a wide variety of weapons in a secure, relaxing setting. It's also one of the region's top-rated visitor attractions, drawing enthusiastic TripAdvisor reviews from travelers worldwide. The signature offering is the experience packages. Full-auto packages let you fire genuine machine guns - M4, AK-47, MP5, KRISS Vector and more - while semi-auto packages cover a broad rental menu. Every package includes range time, firearm rental, ammunition, a keepsake target, hearing and eye protection, a free T-shirt, and a certified RSO by your side on the range throughout. Walk-in shooters are welcome too: standard range fees run $22.50/hour with same-lane guests at $9.50/hour. The range is pistol-caliber only for non-members, while members may bring their own AR-15 or AK platforms using frangible ammunition purchased on-site. Three membership tiers slash the cost of regular shooting: Gold ($250 startup + $24.95/month) drops range fees to $2/hour, Platinum ($350 + $34.95/month) to $1/hour with priority lane assignment, and Titanium ($550 + $49.95/month) eliminates range fees entirely and adds lane reservations, with 20-50% off rental packages by tier and free eye/ear rental for all members. Training covers basic firearm safety and handling, concealed carry and personal protection, specialized workshops (precision and competitive shooting), and both group classes and private lessons with certified instructors - all bookable online. Retail sales are handled by Jefferson Gun Outlet in the same building, making the corner of Airline and Eisenhower a complete shooting destination.
