Hey guys! I'm a new member here and new to shooting. I recently bought a 4" XD9. I have to say i really love that gun!! Its so accurate!! Super reliable and so easy to take care of! Although i have to say i would really like a Walther pk380, tried a rental and absolutely fell in love!! Lol anyway back to subject.. I have been going to heartland gun range lately since its so close. However I'm looking for an outdoor range within an hour away from OKC. I love the Heartland range, it's extremely nice but there just isn't any thing better than the outdoors if you ask me. If anyone could help me out i would greatly appreciate it!

Nice! Thank you very much for that! I'm gonna have to try out that one near banner road, Yukon isnt too far of a drive from me. I googled it and looks pretty interesting. I wanting to try out that 100 and 50 yard range.
Make sure to bring at least $8 cash and all the ammo you want to shoot. That is the range fee for an entire day of shooting. Harry will even give you a target to start with but bring extras. Not a bad range to shoot at but not the highest quality either. I have sent many a bullets down that range.
Another +1 for Banner Road range. Its actual name is "Canadian Ranges." If you want to google up some directions, it is at 7400 Jensen Rd. E., El Reno, OK 73036.
Always good to see new folks getting involved in shooting. It is the greatest of sports... the only one endorsed by the founding fathers!
I'm glad you like your XD -- they are some nice pistols. I would also recommend you learn how to shoot a rifle -- they are oh so much fun (and useful)! We are having an Appleseed Shoot at the Banner Road range on October 8-9 -- you should definitely come. Appleseed is an all volunteer organization that teaches rifle marksmanship, along with some Revolutionary War history. It's only $70 for a weekend, and you will learn to shoot a rifle better than you ever thought possible. I was a gun guy for a long time before I really truly learned how to shoot by going to an Appleseed. Might as well learn it the right way from the start! I sure wish I went to one sooner. Links are in my sig line.
If you don't have a rifle, we will give you a loaner. Coming to one of these events is a really great way for a new shooter to get an idea of what kind of rifle he wants before he goes out and drops beaucomp bucks on something, just to be trying to sell it at the next show because he finds out he really wants something different.
Have fun,
henschman

Banner is very rustic, and primitive. I like it a lot, but if you want uber cool, climitized or whatever, banner is not it. If you want a range that looks like a range is supposed to look, then you might like banner. I need to get some trigger time myself, so may head that way tomorrow.
