The Kissimmee PD Firearms Training Facility is a new 22,940-SF building that includes a 20-lane, 50-yard indoor firing range, secured ammo and target storage room / workshop, gun cleaning room with compressed air hose drops, 40-person training classroom, defensive tactics room with floor and wall padding, as well as office space for both police and fire training administration.
The firing range is considered a dynamic tactical space that will allow the police department to train under different conditions and at variable distances and angles from the firing line. To achieve this flexibility of use, includes a granulated rubber trap. Unlike a steel trap, the rubber trap allows officers to train at different angles and distances from the trap. A series of overlapping ceiling baffles provide acoustic absorption and ballistics protection to lights, HVAC ductwork / equipment, and roof above. Vehicles can be brought into the range through two pairs of overhead coiling doors that further enhance the training capabilities of the space. The range also affords the police department the ability to turn on police car lights mounted between the baffles. The floor of the range is outfitted to enable the use of custom wood partitions and obstacles created at the in-house workshop.
