Bullet Trap is a family owned and operated indoor gun range and retail center at 2608 K Avenue in Plano, Texas, a suburb of Dallas. It has operated since 1989 and serves shooters from across the North Texas area.
The indoor range has 18 handgun lanes and 2 rifle lanes, with individually operated target carriers that send targets out to 25 yards. Pistol lanes accept calibers from .22 LR to .44 Magnum, fired from handguns or carbines. Rifle lanes accept .22 LR (rifle only) up to .338 Lapua, with all shots fired from the seated position and the target set at 25 yards. A Texas DPS certified instructor is on site during operating hours to answer questions. Shotguns and shotgun ammunition are not permitted on the range.
Training is held in a classroom on site and taught by Texas certified and insured instructors. Programs include the Texas License to Carry (LTC, formerly CHL) class, an Introduction to Handguns course for beginners, one-on-one and two-on-one coaching, and an online LTC classroom course. A Basic Holster class has also been announced. The LTC class has been offered under a limited-time promotion at no class charge, with a $15 fee for range-related items. Range qualification can be done at Bullet Trap, or at Frisco Gun Club if that is more convenient.
The showroom carries new firearms, used and consignment firearms, ammunition, shooting supplies, reloading equipment, knives, safes, holsters and accessories, and takes special orders. Rental handguns and rifles are available for test-firing, along with Heckler & Koch MP5 and MP7 machine gun rentals. Bullet Trap also handles FFL and NFA transfers and runs an online store.
Memberships include individual, law enforcement/firefighter, family, and Platinum tiers that remove range fees and standby waits, plus a military membership that shoots free Monday through Friday. Non-members pay an all-day range pass per lane, and children 17 and under pay a reduced fee.
