Questions & Answers

Q: Wanting to practice with my shotgun, but not looking to shoot skeet/trap/sporting clays. I'm looking to set up multiple targets and practice firing and reloading drills for defensive shotgun. Am I able to do that here?

A: Currently this club isnt doing a Defensive shotgun clinics. The only area to do that in would be the Action pistol area of the range. Check with Concord Sportsmen as I think they have gatherings sometimes of people just wanting to do defensive shotgun type stuff.

Q: My wife and I just bought an AR-15 and Glock 9. We are first time buys. Do you have someone who can teach us how to shoot safely. Thanks, John

A: Right now this is difficult with the xounties order on distancing and whatnot. We cant do classroom training. You can see if there are personal training people that are willing to accompany you to the range. Search for nra basic pistol classes. I think youll find them in the pleasanton area

All other facilities are in operation. The only thing that has changed is centerfire rifle and pistol activities have been curtailed. Feel free to come to the clubs elections This coming Thursday at the clubhouse at 7:30pm Im sure there will be people you know there still.

Excellent club to join as it has many activities, friendly people and you can shoot at USI Concord certain times at a discount. They also have a monthly dinner with drinks included in the low membership fee. Highly recommended!

Diablo Rod and Gun Club is by far the most well rounded club at USI whereas the other clubs are mainly skeet clubs. For rifle, pistol, youth, ladies, shotgun and beginners of all kinds this is the club for me. By the way, tonite was the first Saturday night shoot at the public pistol range! A good time was had by all!

Just went to this range today had to be my best experience at any range ever. Honestly, I usually donΓÇÖt like going to ranges because the people that work there are usually not that nice but this place here was amazing very helpful. The range masters were really nice went above and beyond. In my opinion, I was a little bit skeptical to go to this one because I read a comment from another person that said that they were racist. But honestly, I didnΓÇÖt feel that at all, and I have long hair with a beard and darker skin tone lol the woman that worked at the front even answer some questions for me that had nothing to do with me at the range the range masters in the back of the range came out and helped me on their own while they seen me shooting and gave me some pointers. I had an absolutely great experience there. I usually donΓÇÖt even write reviews but I left there so happy that I felt the need to write a review. The thing you have to understand about ranges. ItΓÇÖs a place where something dangerous can happen so you just have to go there with common sense and follow the rules. ItΓÇÖs simply that easy as long as you do that most likely, they wonΓÇÖt bother you and most likely theyΓÇÖll come and help you if you need help.

For my first time in a long time going to a gun range it was a great experience. staff was very pleasant, welcoming and helpful with me.the RSOΓÇÖs ran the lanes like a well oiled machine they were very attentive to the range cleaning whatever stray brass was forgotten on empty lanes while helping me figure out my scope the only thing I wish they would allow would be pictures of animals for hunting as that would would be my purpose for my rifle a friend of mine asked an RSO as to why and he said it puts you in a mind set to kill which I personally donΓÇÖt agree with but itΓÇÖs house rules other then that I truly loved how clean and professional the range was definitely will come back

I just completed the Diablo Ladies Shooting Class on Saturday September 17, 2022. I highly recommend every lady to take it! I have always been a little apprehensive regarding handling guns etc but this class was excellent and really helped assuage my fears. The staff and volunteers were all excellent and kind. They were very helpful and patient too. It truly was a great experience and I learned a lot. Thank you Diablo Rod and Gun Club for providing this invaluable class!!

The rifle range has been graded incorrectly. One can only shoot at 25 and 100 yards. The target location at 50 yards would require the target to be mounted so high that you would need a ladder to access it. Mounting it at a standard height would result in the pass throughs hitting the ground in front of the berm instead of directly into the berm. For those of us that like to zero at 50 to be on at 200, this presents a problem. I hope they get this fixed soon. Everything else about this range is good. The staff is outstanding.

Great to see shooters lining up to shoot at United SportsmanΓÇÖs new facility. The parking lot full of cars and everyone practicing self distancing during the Covid 19 pandemic. Great job by those who persisted and brought the facility completion. Great job guys !!!!

I took the Sept. Ladies Shooting Clinic, at the suggestion of my brother & his wife, to familiarize myself with guns. I had always been anti-guns, taking care of gunshot victims in ICU. But, I have to say, I feel a lot more comfortable around guns now, knowing how to handle them. In fact, IΓÇÖve just ordered a couple of books on guns & gun safety, to narrow down my choices in buying a gun for myself. I never thought about competition shooting as a hobby, but it is really growing on me! ALL of the volunteers instructors & regular instructors have been nothing but nice, friendly, & very willing to help you in all of your firearms needs. IΓÇÖm even going to join the Diablo Rod & Gun Club!!!

Only allowed to shoot a 22. Then they got upset I gave them a very low rating, so now I'm giving them even less star's.

The Multi Purpose Range is now open for 22 LR! We've visited the range the past two weekend in a row. The kids had a blast!

Diablo Rod & Gun is a great club! LOTS of activities and things to do for my sons. Musketeers and Rimfire events. Club has a huge membership base with many of them often at the public ranges offering all sorts of help and advice. If you are looking for a club to join, Id suggest this one hands down as the best on the property and I think there are 4 to choose from but the are all shotgun clubs.
