Hawaiʻi's
Best Shooting
Range

Yes — we welcome the general public, tourists, first-time shooters, and members. X-Ring is a members-only facility, but membership is a one-time $50 lifetime sign-up at the counter — paid once, valid for life, no renewals or annual fees. You complete it on your first visit alongside a normal range waiver. No Hawaiʻi residency required.

After that, you're cleared to shop and shoot anytime we're open. Daily lane rates apply ($25 per lane; $15 with kamaʻāina ID Tuesday–Friday 10am–2pm).

No — walk-in only. Show up during open hours (Tue–Fri 10–6, Sat–Sun 8–8) and we'll get you on a lane. We don't currently take advance bookings, so you don't need to call ahead, fill out a form, or hold a slot.

Classes do require enrollment — see SECTION_02 for upcoming Hawaiʻi Basic Handgun Safety and CCW dates and seat availability.

A government-issued photo ID — Hawaiʻi driver's license, state ID, or US passport. If you'd like the kamaʻāina rate, bring your local ID.

Eye and ear protection are available at the counter if you don't already own a set. If you're bringing your own firearm, see Question 04. Closed-toe shoes are required (sneakers, boots, or work shoes are fine).

Yes. Arrive with it unloaded and in a case — magazine and chamber empty, ammunition stored separately. Our staff will visually inspect it before you take it onto the range; takes about a minute.

We'll also confirm your ammunition is range-legal: no steel-core, no tracers, no armor-piercing, no incendiary rounds. Hawaiʻi law also caps pistol magazine capacity at 10 rounds (HRS §134) — magazines over 10 are a felony in the state.

Absolutely. First-timers are welcome any day we're open. If you'd like to rent a firearm and have never fired one before, you'll take a short Firearm Rental Familiarization Course with one of our range officers — about 15–20 minutes covering safe handling, the firearm you've selected, and range procedure.

If you'd prefer one-on-one coaching beyond the basic familiarization, ask the counter about private instruction sessions. Many first-timers spend their first session deciding what feels right before considering a purchase.

Closed-toe shoes are required on the range — sneakers, boots, or work shoes are all fine. Sandals, slippers, and open-toe shoes are not allowed.

We also recommend a high-collared shirt and tying long hair back — hot brass has a habit of finding collars and ponytails. A baseball cap with a brim is a small comfort that adds up over a long session. Avoid baggy clothing and anything with offensive imagery.

The range is open to anyone 18 or older with a valid photo ID. Minors as young as 13 may shoot when accompanied by a parent or legal guardian, who must remain with them on the range at all times.

To rent or possess a handgun on-site, you must be 21 or older — federal law. Shooters 18–20 may rent and use long guns (rifles, shotguns).

No. The Hawaiʻi Basic Handgun Safety certificate is required before you acquire a handgun in Hawaiʻi — it's a permitting requirement for purchase, not for range access.

Tourists, first-time shooters, and visitors without the certificate are welcome to rent and shoot anytime. If you'd like to take the BHS course while you're here, see SECTION_02 for upcoming class dates and seat availability.
