About Empire

Built by Shooters.
For Shooters.

Empire exists to give responsible people the freedom, space and community to train, compete and improve — without compromise.

The Problem

Why Empire Exists

Public ranges are crowded. Restrictions make practical training difficult. And public land can mean long drives, uncertain conditions and giving up an entire day just to get meaningful time behind the gun. Empire was built to give responsible shooters another option.

01 Private

Your bay. Your training session. No shared firing line.

02 Accessible

Real outdoor range time without making a trip to public land.

03 Flexible

Build your range time around what you actually need to improve.

04 Purpose Built

A facility designed around practical shooting and training.

Built Different

More Than a Range.

Empire is a private gun club, training facility and community built for people who take their training seriously. Whether you're here to sharpen your skills, compete, train with nationally recognized instructors or simply enjoy the freedom to shoot, Empire gives you the space to do it right.

01 Freedom
02 Privacy
03 Real Training

Owner. Shooter. Instructor.

Founder / Owner — Empire Gun Club

Empire wasn't designed in a boardroom. It grew out of years spent shooting, training and figuring out what worked — and what didn't. The goal was simple: build the kind of range I actually wanted to use.

Nothing in Colorado offered what I was looking for. It was all too far, too inconvenient, too expensive, too restrictive, and often times too busy. I made a list of everything I hated about every other range and just did the opposite. It's my field of dreams. I knew if I built it, they would come.

What We Believe

The Empire Standard.

Empire is built around a simple idea: responsible shooters deserve a place where they can train seriously, enjoy their freedom and be surrounded by people who care about getting better.

01

Freedom

Give capable people the space to train without unnecessary restrictions getting in the way.

02

Competence

Better shooters are built through meaningful practice, honest feedback and time behind the gun.

03

Responsibility

Freedom works when members respect the range, each other and the responsibility that comes with it.

04

Community

Good ranges give people a place to shoot. Great ones give them a community worth being part of.
