Their rep hit me up right away here on Yelp, and I made the drive a few days later to look into a Cerakote finish for my latest handgun conquest. Pricey for sure but my word does it look like a brand new firearm. I'm taking my wife's P22 there soon to get some fun color but the regular gunmetal finish I got for this Colt really is impressive. Cool little shop too, and I tbh I did enjoy some of the responses from the owner to a handful of digs on this platform too haha. More SBO should be this genuinely engaged.

They take the safety aspect very seriously and admonished me several times for not following the sequence or putting my finger on a trigger when not ready to fire. When you hear about all of these accidents, you realize if you do the steps the way you are supposed to do, it is impossible to have an accident.

Hearing about this place from the manager at Sharpshooters in Springfield I figured I'd give it a try. It was more than worth the trip for multiple reasons. They have a beautiful selection of firearms, accessories, and other trinkets and for very reasonable prices might I add. Getting down to the nitty gritty, the range experience was phenomenal and my dad and I felt extremely welcomed and respected. The range operation is solid and reasonable but what really topped things off for me was the staff. From entering the store and getting a breakdown of range rules to being out on the range and getting guidance from the RSO's. I want to give a huge shoutout to Alan and I believe his name was Jake (forgive me if I got it wrong) but it was a younger guy who used to be a deputy. Both of them were awesome man. Jake helped me sight in my pistol I've been struggling to zero and he gave me tips and pointers genuinely. Alan did the same but for my new rifle scope and was really thorough and genuinely as well. That's something I really appreciated and took into consideration while being there. I won't sit here and say I'm a know it all and if there's something I don't know I'll say that. I wasn't looked at like I was dumb, instead I was helped out and taught well. High regards for this range and I'm really glad I have the opportunity to get out to this range when I can.

He's got a pulse on the industry and has never steered me wrong. If this is your first firearm experience, I cannot stress enough how important it is to have someone like Warren guide you through the process. I would compare buying from Paladin Tactical like getting fitted for a bespoke suit. Everyone is unique with tastes and requirements. I have not met anyone with more firearm knowledge than Warren and I've met quite a few folks in the industry. Paladin Tactical also offers firearms training. Warren is a certified instructor for all firearms except for black powder (sorry Davy Crockett). What better way to break in your new firearm than with some proper training from this tactical mentor. Training and ammo are the most important things to spend your money in after your firearms purchase.
