Scottsdale Police Department, AZ

the newest state of the art facility for law enforcement

In partnership with the City of Scottsdale, Action Target delivered a cutting-edge indoor law enforcement shooting range designed to meet the rigorous training needs of public safety personnel—while prioritizing performance, safety, and long-term operational value. A key component of this project was the total acoustic treatment installed throughout the range, significantly enhancing the overall shooting environment.

By implementing a comprehensive sound abatement solution—including wall, ceiling, and stall-mounted acoustic panels—excessive noise was dramatically reduced, creating a safer and more comfortable atmosphere for officers undergoing regular training. This investment not only minimized shooter fatigue and improved communication on the line, but it also protected the facility’s interior surfaces from the wear caused by repeated live-fire activity.

The acoustic treatments contributed directly to the range’s longevity, helping to preserve structural integrity and reduce long-term maintenance costs. Scottsdale’s range now stands as a model for how proper design and acoustic planning can improve both the life cycle of a shooting facility and the quality of training for those who serve and protect.
