Lake Highlands Gun Range
Lake Highlands Shooting Center is designed not only for the avid shooter but also for the novice and the occasional shooter.
LHSC welcomes those who are interested in learning more about responsible firearm ownership and safety.
Lake Highlands Shooting Center (LHSC) is one of the newest family-owned and managed pistol and rifle-ready gun range in Dallas, Texas,
with the latest innovations in climate control, bullet traps, and acoustical sound prevention. We have 12 lanes divided into three bays.
The first two bays are 15 yards long with five lanes each used for general shooting and LTC and basic training classes. The third bay has two lanes at 15 yards.
The third bay's two lanes are used for the MILO scenario training system, small groups of private parties of up to eight shooters as well as the AR 15 and AK 47 rifles.
LHSC is primarily a pistol range with qualified and talented group of contractor instructors available to teach a variety of weapons courses.
We do welcome shooters with AR 15, AK 47 and other rifles. We also welcome qualified and insured independent instructors to bring their classes to LHSC and be available to teach our shooter when called.
All weapons must have sights. No bullets or cartridges can contain steel components. No 5.56 mm Green Tip rounds allowed! All bullets will be subject to a magnet test!
LOCATION:
LHSC is located in central Dallas Texas a block south of LBJ and a block east of Plano Rd.
PARKING:
While it may look as if our lanes or busy, many days our three classrooms are busy and our lanes are NOT!
Hours of class are deceptive since the students will be in class for hours and only on the Range for 30 minutes Qualifying.
Street parking and the BB OWEN city park has 60+ parking spaces available.
MILO LIVE FIRE
Scenarios
Our third bay also contains our new MILO LIVE FIRE Projection Targeting System.
The MILO system is a realistic dynamic projection with up to 800 real life scenarios depicting illegal activity where the LHSC shooter can interact with the lawless action on the screen projection.
The MILO system is designed to train law enforcement and individuals to improve their skills and response to dangerous situations. MILO is used by the FBI, ATF and Police agencies throughout the world.
MILO is the next level in weapons and self-defense training offering realism unavailable elsewhere.
LHSC shooters will feel as though they are in the middle of the event and have an opportunity to resolve the conflict peacefully or with an actual live shot from their weapon.
If the LHSC shooter’s action is a termination shot, the perpetrator will fall and the scenario will end.
The next level is with an instructor controlling the “Branching” feature which allows the instructor to change the events of the scenario in real time. Audio commands are involved and add to the realism.
MILO also has scenarios of attacking zombies and other moving and stationary targets.
LHSC is the ONLY Public Range in the Dallas Metroplex with the MILO LIVE FIRE system in order that our customers have the option to shoot with their own weapon, rent our weapons or use our laser mounted Glock weapons.
The MILO system incorporates a major step above all other training systems by providing their “Branching” feature that allows the instructor to intervene from his control station and modify the perpetrators actions to deescalate or intensify the scenarios activity.
The MILO targeting system provides the most comprehensive shooting experience available for law enforcement firearms training and recreational training. The MILO system is the next level in firearms training and is used by Federal, State, Local, Military and countries World Wide.
