I contacted Vinny because I needed help qualifying with a handgun, to keep my G license and my job…read more I had hand surgery years ago and I have a very hard time shooting the weapon that we "used" to use at work, in order to qualify. I'm a Glock girl and do not have any issues with that. Except, we can't bring our own weapons to work to qualify. With my hand and the fear of losing my job, I sought out Vinny to help with the basic fundamentals and learning new skills. And to get my confidence back. As soon as I contacted him and spoke with him, I could tell that he was very calm, understanding and I knew, (even over the phone) he could help. He had a great program, taught me things that I had forgotten from my law enforcement days and taught me some new skills. I totally recommend him if you are just starting with firearms, trying to keep up on training or just need someone to help with your confidence. I will be going at least once a month, until I feel confident like I used to be. He really helped and I totally appreciate it! The gun range is Continental Shooting. They were also very helpful. Definitely recommend!!!

I would recommend anyone who needs firearms instruction to call Vinny. I have had several other instructors, but I learned so much more by taking his classes. As a former cop, he brings more knowledge than my other instructors. I can understand when someone new is a little nervous about handling a gun for the first time, but Vinny is very professional and makes shooting fun.

I'm also new to shooting indoors so I was unsure if I would be able to shoot but the staff kindly informed me of what I needed and had to do. After that it was just about settling in to the environment (which was amazing). I didn't check it out this visit but they have a variety of different firearms to "try out" which I thought was pretty cool because it's definitely a wide selection to choose from. Would definitely go again and highly recommend it to others who enjoy shooting.

I purchased a handgun and was missing one of the two magazines that was supposed to be included in…read morethe kit. I contacted the seller and after repeated attempts to resolve this issue nothing was done to fulfill my request for the missing magazine. Very disappointed in this store. This was a 5.7 Ruger which has been out for years. This is not special and the parts are readily available. The price I paid was fair for the contains of the kit if all the parts were included in kit. Brian the owner handled this and still no satisfaction on my end. The $35.00 for the mag is not worth the travel from Hobe Sound. They could send it to me, but they never made any attempt to contact me about the mag that was ordered and never arrived at the store. The one week he said it would take to be in, and I waited two weeks and glad I called before I went up there to come back empty handed.

Took my concealed carry class and was really happy with the instructor and the overall experience. Applied for my license with the state the very next day and waited a month and a half only to receive a letter from them that the certificate I submitted was not adequate. I figured since this is what sort of thing this company does all the time they would know what certificate is needed. Apparently not! I called and requested the correct one be sent to me and Megan acted very put out. I asked if the new certificate could be emailed to me since I only needed a copy for the state and she said no it would have to be sent via post office. Sooo I got the new one and my name was spelled wrong. Of course the state will not accept this as it did not match my ID and application form. So I called again and left a voicemail for Megan asking for a new certificate. She left me a message back that she would send it but that she filled out the last certificate based on what I told her. As if I somehow don't know how to spell my own name and didn't provide her the correct spelling. And of course no apology for the second error either. Hopefully the third times the charm and the new certificate will actually be correct. But what awful service!
