407 Gun Club: Precision Gets Personal
“Homey is not a word one would typically associate with a shooting range, but from the moment you arrive at 407 Gun Club, that is exactly how you feel. Tucked between rolling green pastures along FM 407 in Argyle, 407 Gun Club feels more like a country club. Blending privacy, precision, and a personal touch, this locally owned and operated business proves that you can find a shooting experience that feels both personal and professional.
“We want our customers to feel like family. We like to greet everyone by name when they walk through the door, so they know they’re not just a number to us,” says Matt Opel, the club’s General Manager.
A Welcoming Space for Shooters of All Levels
What truly sets 407 Gun Club apart is its atmosphere. Designed to be comfortable and inviting, the small-town feel draws everyone from beginners interested in learning the basics to experienced shooters who want to perfect their aim. The clientele is as diverse as you might expect, ranging from students and teachers from UNT to farmers and ranchers from the outskirts of town. The club even hosts a Lady’s Night on Thursday nights.
Each lane and suite was built with comfort in mind, complete with sound-absorbing walls and modern amenities. Unlike many sterile or industrial-style ranges, the cedar wood-paneled walls and rustic decor makes it feel more like a cozy, hunter’s lodge in the countryside. There is even a separate clubhouse where members can lounge by the fireplace or just catch up with other members. This warm, familiar environment makes visitors feel like part of the 407 family.
Membership Options for Everyone
Members can enjoy both 50-yard and 100-yard ranges, all custom-built with plenty of space and safety in mind, but it’s the sense of community that keeps people coming back. They offer a variety of membership levels designed for everyone from casual visitors to committed enthusiasts. The Bronze membership provides an affordable month-to-month option perfect for walk-in pistol or archery use. For those who want a little more convenience, Silver and Gold members receive online lane reservations, increased discounts, and guest passes.
At the Platinum and Life-Time tiers, members enjoy waived lane fees, retail and class discounts, and even complimentary gun cleanings. But perhaps what the club prides itself most on are its family memberships, which allows one membership for families of up to six. Crafted to make shooting an activity everyone can share, they also offer 3 private suites where families can learn together, practice together, and make memories they’ll talk about
for years.
“We were always leaning toward memberships from the beginning and wanted to create a kind of country club vibe. When people buy into a membership, they treat the club and other members with more respect, and that’s the kind of environment we wanted to create,” shares Matt.
Learning, Growing, and Feeling Included
407 Gun Club stands out for its hands-on educational approach. There are a variety of training classes for beginners and women, providing a supportive environment where new shooters can build confidence safely. These classes are led by experienced instructors who balance safety with patience and respect. This approach fosters empowerment and competency, helping guests feel comfortable handling firearms while learning the fundamentals of safety and technique.
True to its Texas roots, 407 Gun Club stands firmly behind those who serve their communities and country. Veterans, active-duty military members, first responders, and seniors all receive additional membership discounts, a gesture of gratitude for their dedication and service. It’s one more way they give back to the people who help keep Argyle — and all of North Texas — safe and strong.
More Than a Range — It’s a Community
Between the family memberships, friendly staff, and welcoming environment, it’s no wonder why 407 Gun Club was named the Best of Denton County three years running. For members, it represents a place where they can relax, practice their skills, and spend quality time with friends and family. Whether it’s a father and daughter learning to shoot together or a group of coworkers enjoying some team building, there’s always a sense of connection.
If you’re looking for a top-notch range with Southern hospitality, look no further than 407 Gun Club. With flexible memberships, educational classes, and a setting that feels more like a weekend retreat than a shooting range, it’s a bullseye for individuals, families, and businesses alike.
