Is it painful?

Nope, participants shoot at sophisticated electronic targets and not each other. Unlike real firearms which have a substantial ‘kick’ when fired, these do not fire bullets and therefore the affects felt are minimal.

What guns are used?

We only use high end Airsoft guns which give a degree of kinaesthetic feedback when you pull the trigger to provide an even better shooting experience. To achieve this, we use guns which are referred to as gas blow back or electronic blow back airsoft guns as these are some of the most modern and advanced airsoft guns available!

Is it just shooting at one target?

No, that would quickly get boring! Snap Shot is an interactive shooting range range which has multiple targets available to each person. The target system is so clever that we can change things up, adjusting the order in which the targets appear, how long they are active for and how many times you must shoot the target before it will move onto the next one as well as various game modes!

Do I need to have shot before?

No, almost any one of any age or ability, with or without experience can take part in this activity. Our friendly staff are always on hand to offer coaching and advice at all times.

If you are new to shooting then we will assist you with basic shooting technique, however, the main aim of our sessions is to have fun so you don’t ned to be a marksman! If you already have experience, we will let you get your eye in before offering some tips and tricks so you can get even more out of the activity!

Is It Safe?

Yes, safety is paramount when taking part in any of our activities and we hold appropriate insurance just in case. There are rules in place to ensure everyone’s safety which are required to be followed, anyone who does not adhere to these rules or is being unsafe may be asked to leave the range with no refund provided.

As the activity is based around shooting at targets, as long as the rules are followed, the chance of being injured is extremely small; the aim is to have a safe and fun experience.

What are the bb’s made from?

When using the range indoors, we generally use plastic BB’s as they are very robust and usually reusable, however, when the range is used outside, we predominantly use biodegradable bb’s to minimise the impact to the environment. These ‘bio’ bb’s use organic polymer resins from plant-based plastics including sugar cane and corn starch polymers as they are more effective at breaking down in the ground and are certified free of harmful chemicals (EN71-3:1994) as well as also having other certifications including EN13432, EN71-3:1994 and EC 1907/2006.

As part of the range set up, we have a collection system around the base of the targets which should collect the bb’s once they have hit (or missed) the targets which that things are kept nice and tidy!

Do you have to be a certain age to take part?

The kids and grandparents as well as everyone in-between can take part!

For children to get the most out of our private hire experiences where they can take part in various activities and challenges using our range, they must be able to safely hold and operate the equipment so we do recommend it for those 10+ years to fully benefit from the experience, however, this age is only given as a guideline; the minimum age for any participant is 6 years old. Regardless of age, all participants must be able to safely handle the equipment and follow instructions.
