Target Shooting Near Quartzsite

Just wanted to do a little plinking, maybe some target shooting with a new firearm, and a few old.

If you're familiar with the area, I'm looking for a safe place to do some shooting, sure would appreciate a few tips, and maybe even directions from downtown Main St.
  • NE of Q is an out door range. We were out looking around the NE corner of town and found a dirt road leading north. It took us to a dirt mound as a back stop. No one officiating, come and go as you please.

  • Shooting at the Q isn’t the safest activity. Too many people.
  • AZ has different types of lands, State Trust Lands, National Forest, National Parks, BLM and Private. Shooting of firearms on State Trust are only allowed during hunting season with a TAG. National Forest and BLM are allowed if no structures or towns nearby but you will be held financially responsible if you start a fire. I believe, not sure, shooting Regulations are unique for each National Park. Private is PRIVATE PROPERTY, do not enter or shoot without written permission. In Q the problem is the large number of people wandering around. Just be careful and pickup your casings.
