Firearms Range

The department is very proud of our dedication to firearms proficiency and of our range facilities. The department has state certified firearms instructors/range officers assigned to each of the three platoons.

Our officers carry Sig Sauer P226 .40 caliber pistols as their duty sidearm and must qualify with these weapons quarterly. Additionally, each patrol car is equipped with a patrol rifle and all officers must qualify yearly with these weapons.

We now allow residents to use our range facilities to shoot their private firearms. You will need to supply your own ammunition and we require lead free frangible ammunition. This can be purchased at your local gun shop. Residents wishing to use the range facilities must make arrangements ahead of time with one of our range officers. Please call (248)644-4200 and ask to speak with a range officer to set up your appointment.

We take firearms safety very seriously. Weapons should be kept out of reach of children and unloaded when not in use. The department provides free child safety gun locks to any resident needing one. If you are interested in a gun lock, please stop by the front desk at the station.

Fire Truck Requests & Station Tours


The members of the Bloomfield Hills Public Safety Department would be happy to bring a firetruck to your outdoor event during the spring, summer and fall months - We love children's birthday parties! We have training from 12:30pm to 4:00pm every day of the week, so please schedule your requests before or after.

We are also happy to provide station tours. If you are a resident please feel free to stop by with your children anytime. For groups we ask that you call (248)644-4200 in advance. Ask to speak to a public education officer or the on-duty watch commander.
