Original Bob’s Shooting Range

Posted on by

2008 – 2020

It is with great sadness that we notify you Original Bob’s Shooting Range is now permanently closed and will not reopen due to obvious reasons.
We would like to thank everyone that has been part of our journey for the last 31 years. With its ups and downs we would not trade the memories we have gained and stories we have shared for anything. I would also like to thank Bob’s staff from most recent to the dinosaurs from our earliest years. Without your hard work, dedication and professionalism we would have never become the go to shop for so many of our patrons. Farewell to all thank you for so many great years and never give up the fight!!!!
Sincerely,
Carl, Aaron, Steve, Justin and of course the one and only ORIGINAL BOB OG!!!!
