Are shotguns allowed?
We don't have trap, skeet or sporting clays, but you are allowed to shoot shotguns into our 50 yard berm. This gives you a feel for and allows you to practice with the firearm in a self defensive manner. Either shot of any size or slugs may be fired.

Can I shoot my own ammunition or must I buy yours?
We operate an outdoor range and are not only active reloaders ourselves, we also cast our own bullets. Many of our patrons also are active reloaders and we support that activity - it is as much of the part of the sport as it is to the economics. We don't currently sell ammunition.

What is the largest firearm are allowed?
All calibers up to 50 BMG are allowed. We do however place limits on the types of bullets allowed on the range such as no tracers or incindiary, armor piercing, bird bombs, etc. We also restrict the types of bullets and calibers allowed to shoot our steel plates.

We are certified by the NRA to teach a broad range of classes but currently lack a permanent facility in which to conduct training. Therefore, we are doing one-on-one training. Please contact us with your request.

Can law enforcement access the range?
We work with local, regional and federal law enforcement agencies as well as private firms who need private range time for training or qualification opportunities. Agencies find that we are very easy to work with and provide services not offered by other ranges. A few agencies using English Pit Shooting Range include:
Battle Ground Police Department
Clark County Sheriffs Department
SW Washington Regional SWAT
Vancouver Police Department
Washougal Police Department
Interested organizations should contact us to open dialog.

Is Clark County Gun Club, Inc. part of Clark Rifles, Inc?
No. CCGC is a totally separate operation from Clark Rifles. While we work together to ensure we have similar safety rules etc. we are totally individual entities. CCGC also works with other area ranges to ensure we have similar Standard Operating Procedures. This helps reduce confusion when visiting local ranges.

I've never been to a managed range before. What do I do?
The first visit to a range can be intimidating. We meet new visitors each week who have until then never been on a range. Our team is here to focus on safety and to ensure that you have a good experience. We'll introduce you to the facility and help you learn the ropes. Our regular shooters are very friendly and welcome new shooters with open arms. Shooting at English Pit almost becomes a family affair.
