Here is the problems I see with K2 and the reason I am surprised it has remained open this long. The range opened in march of 04 so it has been about a year and a half.

1. Their hours suck. People have to work they cant come in during the day. When it was foothills shooting center it was open untill 9 pm during the week. I know it was a dungeon back then but I damn near lived there and shot all the time after work.

2. Can't shoot reloads. Let's face it avid hunters like my self reload I can load much more accurate ammo than what I can buy at the store. I can also load target ammo for much cheaper wich allows me to shoot more.

3. They have VIP membership and don't give members anything for it other than reduced range fee's. I bought a membership before the place even opened and they failed to give me anything they promissed. For this reason I let my member ship go and did not renew it. They originally planned to have only 5000 VIP memberships at 250 per year and last I heard it's up to 350 you do the math that is alot of cash. They spent 1.5 million remodeling the place and that would have got them there investment back. Problem is to make it worth paying for the VIP you would have to shoot there one hell of a lot to make it worth it. For these reasons as well as the others I'm pointing out the VIP membership plan has failed.

4. Their prices. The prices they have on guns is assnine and only an idiot would pay those prices for a gun. You can go down the road not a mile to Green Mountain Guns and save yourself a whole lot of money.

5. They change hours and days they are open like a woman changes her mind. You cant run a business when people cant depend on you. If you say your going to be open on these days and hours you damn well better be.

6. When they first opened they had a staff of top notch people with great knowledge base. All those people are gone and they have nothing but young kids who don't know shit. The reason they probably had to let all the good people they had go is because business did not meet the planned expectations for the reasons I have stated.

Bottom line is this the facility is great it is by far one of the best indoor ranges in the country. I like Ken the owner he is a great guy but he does not have a damn clue how to run a business. The place needs somebody that can run a business to save it. They need to change the hours, lower the prices on guns, give people with VIP's what they promised, allow reloads just check to make sure they are not steel core and have the place open during the posted business hours period hell or high water.

Unless these changes are made the place is going to belly up I gaurentee it.
