Firearm Rentals

$10.00 per handgun plus the cost of range time!

Rent from our selection of Smith and Wesson semi-automatic pistols and revolvers, Glock pistols, or .22 rifles.  You must have a valid Connecticut Pistol Permit and purchase approved ammunition from the Blue Trail Range Gun Store on the date of the rental.  Without a Connecticut Pistol Permit, you can book a private instruction lesson which includes safety instruction, eye and ear protection, proper firearms handling, range time, targets, ammunition, and will allow you to shoot handguns or long guns under the supervision of an instructor.

Currently rentals are available for .22 and 9MM only (due to ammo shortages).  We offer private instruction for all other calibers.  You MUST have a current CT pistol permit in order to rent a firearm and purchase our ammunition.
