What we offer
A private experience built around your goals.
Lewis Creek works with first-time shooters, experienced shooters refining their skills, families, youth shooters, competitive shooters, and private groups.
Your party is the only party on the property during the appointment. That privacy gives Dick room to teach, observe, and adapt the session—or simply give capable shooters the space to practice.
Range time
Independent practice by appointment on the pistol bay, 100-yard rifle range, or shotgun range.
Concealed Carry
Eight-hour North Carolina Concealed Carry Certification classes, usually held on the second Saturday of the month. Check our schedule or call Dick to verify. Classroom instruction, lunch, equipment if needed, and the range qualification are included; ask Dick for the current class fee.
Firearm selection
Try appropriate choices during training and get practical guidance before choosing a personal-defense firearm.
Youth shooters
Loaner rifles, pistols, and shotguns suitable for youth are available, with ammunition supplied for Lewis Creek guns.

Customized sessions for families, birthdays, bachelor and corporate groups. Lewis Creek has also hosted TV segments and celebrations; limited catering space may be arranged.
