The Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources waives license and shooting range permit requirements at the Barbour, Cahaba, Upper Delta, Etowah and Swan Creek public shooting ranges on August 3, 10, and 17. The ADCNR’s Division of Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries (WFF) has partnered with the National Shooting Sports Foundation to provide the Free Range Days as part of National Shooting Sports Month, which takes place in August.
According to a press release, "During the events, new shooters will have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience with firearms at no charge from certified instructors at five of the state’s top public shooting ranges." Alabama’s Free Range Days will run from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., but shooters are welcome to stay and shoot the remainder of the day.
