  • It’s indoors
Cons
  • Many
So, I have shot at the shooting range three times now. Each time has gotten worse and worse. The first time ; I was told that I couldn't shoot 5.56 ammo unless purchased from them.

This isn't a reload but the same ammo factory sealed that they are selling for a marked up price.

I chose not to shoot 5.56 and shot 9/45pistol instead. That's fine only 5.56 you must buy from them. I understand that businesses have to make a profit, they don't want targets to get chewed up. I get it.

This wouldn't have been an issue however, I specifically called and ask if they allowed 5.56 to be fired before hand… No one said yes but it must be purchased from us.

I'll chock this one up to poor communication and maybe I should have ask, if I could shoot my own 5.56 ammo.

Again, they allow you to bring in all other ammo to be fired just not 5.56.

Furthermore, and the second time I went they couldn't find me in the system.

You have to watch a video and typical paperwork if you haven't shot there before .

Not an issue but now they want me to do it again. Already pressed for time and just wanting to shoot it seemed like a bs thing but their rules.

I had just shot there two weeks before hand and Apparently a system change and now everyone was effected…

Strike two in my book… system error but i signed paperwork… where did that go?

Now, against my better judgement I decided to shoot today, it's between 19 and 21 degrees so an indoor range seemed nice.

No issues getting in,they have me on file, I go to my lane and the RSO is watching as they should..

I Set my range bag down to start setting up my target. I hear it has to be under the table yelled.

No worries, I comply and the bag goes under the table . Guess I'll grab everything out from under the table after.

Now, I go to set up my target and the RSO comes over with the I'm in charge attitude. He tells me to just stop.

I comply and he pulls out a tool to adjust the top portion of the swivel. Not my target but the portion that allows it to hold in place and the automatic sensor. Their equipment so, sure he must see something.

My whole goal for the day is to get my distance. I complete the first 8round mag in a double tap/ controlled pair drill.

RSO comes over like a storm trooper and says slow down. …. Now, all my rounds are on paper and they look good.

I was about to start pushing further. However, it is at this time that I have decided that this just isn't the range for me.

I will not return nor will I recommend to anyone.

I understand that facilities have their own set of rules and standards and Im completely okay with this. Nevertheless nothing was against their posted rules. Every time I have went some sort of issue.

I further understand communication sometimes is shotty over the phone, system errors, and just getting that one bad customer service occasionally…. I don't understand something being an issue every time.

As far as the Gun shop, I haven't had an issue with the two FFL transfers I have done but that was quite some time ago. They are slow to get to you and it's always busy

Just moved back to Wa and needed to get a concealed holster. They had exactly what I needed. When I was there, I asked one of the staff about a 6.5 with a threaded barrel...he took the time to give me a tour of what they had and the price ranges. Good guy. Prices seemed to coincide with the online research I have done.

Purchased my first pistol from WGS. This was ahead of WA's capacity restriction going into place so there was a bit of a rush. The staff were helpful and got me set up in a timeline manor.

Been a Welcher's customer since the 1990's. I like their new location - lots of parking and no sketchy people wandering about. I dropped in recently to use the indoor range again. That's a nice facility. I feel more comfortable shooting there than at Bullseye or Marksman. Not sure why specifically I feel that way, it's just a vibe. Maybe it's the folks that work there. They don't rush me and they don't talk down to me. It's almost like they're glad to see me!

  • Helped me add components to different guns
  • Really knowledgeable
The staff are very smart and know what they're talking about- they're knowledgeable when it comes to ordering special accessories. It's a great family owned business, with a super gun range.
Great Spot right off I5

  • Spacious
  • Good selection
I've been buying from these guys off and on for 10 years since they were in the older smaller location. The new location is fantastic and they seem to get a large variety of trade ins. Probably being so close to two military bases. Good selection of ammo, only place I could find 30-30 recently.

Pros
  • Good variety of guns
  • Large pistol selection with multiple options available
I've been to quite a few gun shops all over the US, and this one is better than most!

Big selection of pistols and rifles. Full size safes, tons of accessories, and plenty of staff on hand. Staff is on hourly pay and not based on commission

Indoor range attached to the other end of the building

They have quite a few oddball guns that are hard to find

I ended up buying a new pistol with zero intention of buying a gun that day. Simply because they had it in stock, and I had 4 options to choose from of the same gun.

  • Decent handgun inventory
  • Good Glock Blue Label inventory
Cons
  • None
WGS has been great to deal with even during the great pandemic. Can't fault them for ammo and reloading shortfalls. Prices have been competitive and the staff always helpful.

Typically have a good selection of Glock Blue Label inventory to chose from.
Great shop, great service.

  • Great private sales transfers
Cons
  • A tad bit more than most but worth the service in the end.
They have a nice shop and selection of goods. I did a private sale/purchse with them and it was easy and done professionally.

I have dealt with this guy for 25 + years now. Bought my safe from him first, don't think they really sell them any more. When Kel-Tec first started offering the P-32 I asked about one and he told me "they make crap and I will not carry them". He then tried to show me some Jennings that he said were great.:confused: Now this was quite a while back. I'm sure he could not lay hands on a P-32 and wanted to sell what he had but still. Years later after the P3AT hit I was in there just to buy some cleaning stuff. On the way out the door I see the pistol in the case and ask. He said he had just gotten it in and as fast as they come in they are sold. That one followed me home. Wife and I have bought a few more guns from them since. Price seems to always be competitive. When they opened the new range we went to look and it was a no way. They wanted way too much money to shoot there. Had to use their ammo, buy their targets, no memberships, so we left. I don't know if this has changed since they opened as it has to hurt business if they keep that up.

Pros
  • Good Selection, good prices
Cons
  • A bit tight inside
Discovered them looking for a specific item no one else had. The price was reasonable, but it just wasn't for me; wish I had liked it more after I saw it. It was an S&W model 48 22WMR revolver. If you look on-line, they run about $800-900. Nice shop though and certainly worth checking out.
