Range Description
Evans Brothers Guns and Shooting Range, located at 712 Crippin Road in Huntington, Texas, has been a staple in the local firearms community for nearly two decades. Established 19 years ago, this facility has offered a range of services including firearm sales, shooting range access, and training courses. However, due to a significant decline in financial performance over the last five years, the business has announced its permanent closure set for December 24, 2025. This decision comes after careful consideration of various factors, including increasing operational costs and the competitive landscape of gun shops in the Lufkin area. Despite the impending closure, Evans Brothers Guns continues to operate normally until Christmas Eve, providing loyal customers with their usual services. The facility has been known for its welcoming atmosphere and commitment to customer service, fostering friendships and community ties over the years. Although the shooting range specifics are not detailed, the business has offered License-to-Carry (LTC) classes, with the next sessions scheduled for November 15 and December 13, 2025. These classes are designed for individuals seeking to navigate the complexities of firearm laws, especially for those who travel frequently. The owner, Casey, will continue to teach these classes and handle gun transfers by appointment, ensuring that customers still have access to essential services even as the business winds down. The decision to close was not made lightly, as Casey expressed deep appreciation for the community's support throughout the years. The facility’s location, while slightly removed from the town center, has provided a unique space for enthusiasts and beginners alike to engage with firearms in a safe and controlled environment. As the business approaches its final days, it aims to sell its inventory to someone interested in continuing the legacy of serving the local gun community. Overall, Evans Brothers Guns has been more than just a gun shop; it has been a hub for education, safety, and camaraderie among firearm enthusiasts.
