NEW HUDSON, Mich. – The Huron Valley Guns facility in New Hudson trains law enforcement members for emergencies.
The 100-yard shooting range includes realistic training scenarios. There are red and blue flashing lights, and the range can mimic night conditions to prepare police for dark situations.
"In the real world you're going to be attacked out and about, not standing in a booth shooting a target," assistant range manager Steve Cheston said.
The $6 million facility has more than two dozen training programs that challenge instincts and reflexes.
"When adrenaline is going, you revert to instincts. You revert back to your training. That's why a facility like this is a blessing for us," Milford Police Chief Thomas Lindberg said.
The range also has a 9,000-square-foot showroom with one of the largest firearms inventories in the country.
In order to take one of the higher level tactical training courses at the range a concealed pistol license is needed. A CPL also is needed to rent a gun for the rang. But anyone with a gun of their own is welcome to shoot it at the range.
