    Hi Trisha,
    There are no shooting ranges as such in Galway unless it is clay shooting that you would like to try.
    Had you known the NASRPC run a women on target day where participants get to learn the basics on rifle and pistol shooting both in theory and practical with one on one instruction. There was one just last weekend held in Harbour House Sports Club in Athy and it was a fantastic day. If you are interested I will forward you more details.

    As homerhop said there are none in Galwy, and other than the NASRPC course/event you might want to look at this. It's a list of ranges. One may be close enough and provide a guest feature to allow you to go, see and possibly shoot.

    (only airsoft,no "real" guns)
