H&H Shooting Sports

H&H Shooting Sports is an indoor shooting range, archery center, retail store, and training facility in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Established in 1981 by Miles and Jayne Hall, the business began as a small range on 10th Street west of Council Road. Its original premises measured approximately 4,800 square feet and contained 10 shooting lanes, a classroom, and a lobby. In April 1990, H&H moved to its present location at 400 South Vermont Avenue, Suite 110, a site facing Interstate 40. The current complex is approximately 90,000 square feet and is built around a large public shooting operation. The facility is described as having 42 firearm lanes and 21 archery lanes, for 63 total shooting lanes, while other descriptions of the building refer to 61 lanes across its various range areas. The firearm range can accommodate handguns and shotguns as well as rifle cartridges below the energy limits associated with .300 Weatherby Magnum and .300 Remington Ultra Magnum. Individual lanes use remotely controlled target systems, allowing targets to be positioned without shooters or staff walking downrange. The range also uses recycled rubber in its backstop and an air-filtration system intended to move airborne gases away from shooters. H&H serves customers with different levels of experience. Its education program includes private instruction for beginners, concealed-carry training, and advanced firearms courses. The business also provides free programming for Boy Scouts of America members working toward archery, rifle-shooting, and shotgun-shooting merit badges. These programs reflect the facility's stated emphasis on developing shooting sports participation and teaching firearm safety. The archery division was added in 2008 after H&H acquired Outdoor Outfitters, a competing business. The department expanded the brand beyond conventional firearms shooting and made the facility a combined firearms and archery destination. In addition to range access and instruction, H&H operates a retail area selling firearms, archery equipment, accessories, and related sporting goods. On-site services include gunsmithing, and the complex also contains an in-store café. The venue has been designed as more than a basic range. Its interior includes animal mounts from around the world and a sensory safari intended to provide an experience for children with visual impairments. H&H has also been recognized by the National Association of Shooting Ranges and the National Shooting Sports Foundation as the first facility to receive their Five Star Facility designation. In 2016, the Halls agreed to sell their stock in H&H. In August of that year, Miles Hall announced that chairman Leroy Ussery had assumed the presidency. Ussery remained chairman of the board after taking on the operating leadership role. Publicly available reference material does not specify the later ownership structure or provide detailed current financial information. H&H remains identified primarily with its Oklahoma City location and its integrated combination of public shooting ranges, archery facilities, instruction, retail, and supporting services.

H&H Shooting Sports was founded in Oklahoma City in 1981 by Miles and Jayne Hall. The first facility operated on 10th Street, west of Council Road. At roughly 4,800 square feet, it was a comparatively small operation with 10 shooting lanes, a classroom, and a lobby. From the beginning, the business focused not only on providing a place to shoot but also on developing participation in the shooting sports and teaching firearm safety. In April 1990, H&H moved to its current site at 400 South Vermont Avenue, Suite 110, near Interstate 40. The relocation provided space for a substantially larger operation. The present complex is approximately 90,000 square feet and includes public shooting lanes, classrooms, retail space, and an in-store café. Its firearm range has 42 lanes, while the archery section has 21 lanes. Descriptions of the overall building also refer to 61 shooting lanes, reflecting differences in how the facility's firearm and archery areas are counted. The range's design emphasizes controlled target movement and environmental management. Targets can be positioned as far as 90 feet from the shooter, and lane-level controls reduce the need for people to enter the downrange area. A recycled-rubber backstop is used behind the range, and air-filtration equipment is intended to move firing-related gases away from customers. The facility accommodates common handgun and shotgun calibers and rifle cartridges below specified high-energy limits. H&H broadened its business in 2008 when it purchased Outdoor Outfitters, a competing archery business. The transaction led to the creation of H&H's archery department, giving the company a combined firearms-and-archery offering. The business also developed a retail operation selling firearms, bows and archery equipment, accessories, and other shooting-sports goods. Additional services include an on-site gunsmith and structured instruction. Education has remained a central part of the facility's identity. H&H offers private lessons for new shooters, concealed-carry courses, and advanced training. It also supports Boy Scouts of America members with free programs connected to archery, rifle-shooting, and shotgun-shooting merit badges. The complex includes animal mounts and a sensory safari designed to offer an experience for children with visual impairments, demonstrating an effort to frame the venue as an educational and recreational destination rather than only a commercial range. The National Association of Shooting Ranges and the National Shooting Sports Foundation recognized H&H as the first Five Star Facility in their program. In 2016, founders Miles and Jayne Hall agreed to sell their stock. Miles Hall announced in August that chairman Leroy Ussery had become president, while Ussery continued as chairman of the board. Available reference material does not establish the later ownership arrangements, a precise current executive roster, or financial performance. The business is currently represented by its Oklahoma City facility and its mix of range access, archery, retail, training, gunsmithing, and visitor services.
