    I found this place by accident. This is an indoor VR range with REAL handguns and rifles. They…read morecan also convert most personal weapons to use their system. The premise here is to use modules that fit into real weapons giving you real feedback without real ammo. 100% safe. When you pull the trigger a laser fires from the module, and CO2 cycles the weapon. Nice! NO CLEANING after a day at the range. One can also see one's performance level and diagnose issues in aim, reaction, etc. They have tons of scenarios from plain target shooting at different distances to self-defense scenarios to a full-out ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE (MY FAVORITE). The facility is very nice! It is temperature controlled, light controlled, and the screens are bright and crisp to display the "targets". You can shoot individually or in teams. The staff and owner (Ted) are very professional and friendly. You can just "go-wild" hunting zombies or bad guys, or get assistance from the staff on becoming a better shooter. There is a good restaurant co-located for snacks and such. For hot or rainy days, this IS the place to be. It's very popular, so make sure you call Ted or one of his crew before you go as their resources are limited. This is the closest you can come to military / police style training in million-dollar simulators, and other than 360* action, very little deviation. This is far less expensive than hundreds of rounds of ammo, cleaning costs, driving to a range, etc. Does it sound like this customer is addicted? I am!

    I took my two sons here today and they had a ball and I really enjoyed it. The owner was really…read morenice and took time with them. I think this would be a awesome place to take a group of boys to have some fun learning how actually shoot a gun without going through allot of Ammo. I definitely will be taking my sins back here and it's a great place to target practice without using live ammo.

    This is the best freaking indoor gun range around-hands down. This range is super supportive of…read morefirst responders (Law, Fire & EMS) & has loads of great deals on memberships, guns and accessories. The parking lot is huge and there are tons of lanes (12 or 13) on the inside. I come here all the time due to my membership. The staff is always super friendly and nice. I've never had any issues in the multiple times that I've been here. There are a variety of guns to rent that you can shoot with at a good price. They also have a wide range of fun targets to shoot with. You can bring your own glasses and hearing protection or they can provide you with some. Super fun place and highly recommended!!!!!

    I can't say enough about Wes Reese and the North Carolina Concealed Carry certification course…read moreoffered through Reese Firearms. Being both a veteran and someone that had previously gone through concealed carry certification in another state, you can imagine how excited I was NOT to sit through more fairly basic-level training. I couldn't have been more wrong. Wes is one of the most knowledgeable individuals you will ever meet when it comes to firearms and the relevant NC laws. Additionally, he makes some otherwise dry material interesting and funny, and is very engaging with the class. The videos Wes used to supplement the material were mostly funny, but were very relevant to the subject matter and the humor just made the material all the more memorable. Pizza lunch was delivered by Pizza Hut at 11:15 and Wes just kept rolling through the material while we ate. Shortly after lunch, a guest speaker from US Defense Shield spoke to the class about carrying legal protection in the event you ever find yourself in a self-defense situation, firearm or not, and how you plan to defend yourself criminally and civilly after the fact (because you will have to regardless of what happened, and how). Once again, very thought provoking, and not something most folks consider. The classroom portion is located in Kernersville and the range is in Thomasville, approximately 25-30 minutes away with light traffic. I didn't realize this until I received the confirmation e-mail after I registered, but it wasn't a big deal for me. If that matters to you, don't forget to plan ahead. Range qualification was quick and efficient and the class was dismissed from the range while anyone that wanted to stick around to shoot Wes's arsenal was welcomed. Either way, you leave the range that day with your certificate in hand, ready to join the world as the next concealed carriers (as soon as your local Sheriff approves your application). If you live in or anywhere remotely near the Triad Area, and are considering concealed carry training, there's just no better option than Wes Reese and Reese Firearms.

    Great instructor for gun safety/NC concealed carry! Wes goes above and beyond when teaching. He…read moreuses real life examples and props. It is easy to schedule online. You can tell he has a passion for gun safety and education and does an amazing job! Would highly recommend! Thank you Wes!
