    Receipt/proof

    Cobra Tactical in Valencia should be ashamed of how they treat customers. This was easily one of the most blatant cash grab experiences I have ever had at an FFL. A PPT transfer is a standard $47.19 in California. Instead, they charged me well above that amount and piled on extra fees with zero transparency. Yes, they charged for a gun lock, which I accepted without complaint. But on top of that, they tacked on nearly $25 to $30 in completely bogus fees that were never disclosed ahead of time. When I called them out on it, their response was that they need these charges to keep the store running. That is not my problem, and it is not an excuse to squeeze customers. You already made money off the lock and storage related charges. The fact that you still felt the need to extract even more money tells me everything I need to know about how this shop operates. Most FFLs in California do not pull this nonsense. Many will loan a lock, waive garbage fees, and actually try to earn repeat business. Cobra Tactical had every opportunity to make this right and chose greed instead. As a result, I have reported this experience to the California Department of Justice and have shared it across multiple online firearms communities. People deserve to know which shops operate with integrity and which ones nickel and dime their customers under the table. I will never return here and more importantly, I will actively advise people in both Southern and Northern California to stay far away from this place. There are far better FFLs out there. Cobra Tactical is an embarrassment to the community.

There's a lot of information on the internet on how to shoot but nothing beats having an experienced instructor in person to help correct and guide you through the process. The class had a nice progression that I think worked well for a new shooter like myself. First we talked about safe gun handling practices and gun laws followed by a demonstration of each component of a semi auto handgun. Next we talked about sight alignment before finishing the class with live shooting. Overall I think I gained some valuable information. I recommend this to anyone who is an absolute beginner with handguns

We signed up and she provided all the information via email. I nor my friends had ever shot guns before so we were a little nervous. We got to the range and met Sayaka, who was badass! She assisted us to get geared up and shared about her expertise. There was about 6 people in our class, so it made it very intimate and they were able to assist us individually if needed! Paula and Sayaka went over various topics of safety. Already it made me feel at ease. Paula is so knowledgeable and quite hilarious she had be cracking up the entire class. Paula and Sayaka made a great team and they explained everything thoroughly. Such cool ladies! I was so inspired by them! We went over the movement of pulling the gun out from the holster over and over and over. But we didn't use the gun just learned the movements so we can get comfortable. Then we moved on to actually holding the gun. It was really helpful, because once we began shooting the adrenaline spiked! I got a lil scared and so did my friend but Paula and Sayaka were extremely patient and helpful. They showed us how to shot, where to shot, and how to reload. They gave me so much confidence that I could be badass like them! I will definitely be back and taking the next course. The three hours flew by! It was a lot of fun! We didn't know we were gonna get to shot in the shoothouse so that was a surprise and such a great time! Paula got some cool pics of us. 10/10 experience and I def recommend to women who have never shot before. It's definitely a necessity to protect ourselves and our loved ones!

From steel and paper pistol ranges--with a huge selection of rental guns--to a well-stocked pro shop, there's something here for every skill level. Shotgun shooters will love the trap and sporting clays, plus the on-site pro shop has everything you need. The rifle range is super versatile too--you can shoot rifles, pistols, and even shotguns. On top of that, they've got a full archery range with standard targets, 3D animal targets, and even a 3D roving course. What really sets Oaktree apart is the staff--super friendly, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. And the café? Way better than you'd expect. They've recently updated the menu with a new chef, and I tried the bison burger... absolutely incredible, especially for the price. They also host a ton of fun events, competitions, and specialty shoots, so there's always something going on. Definitely follow them on social media to stay in the loop. All in all, this place delivers on every level. I'll 100% be looking into a membership--Oaktree is just that good.

The pros will help you from start to finish, and even the guys just there on the range who didn't work there were nice, too. I made new friends! Great selections at the shop, easy parking, straightforward no-fuss place. Great value for time and money on the ammo, rental & lane. If you also need gear and gadgets, backpacks, apparel, cleaning tools...they have it. Also- I did not try it but the bbq food truck smelled amazing and I will definitely be doing that next time. Big thank you and shout out to Page for the support out there today. I will definitely be coming back with friends and family.

I explained it was our first time at this particular range and they explained everything and showed me the map before taking us all to the private range we had reserved. Make sure you go over the driving directions when you leave, as we had no mobile phone service once we got deep onto the dirt road. Follow the signs and you'll get there eventually. I wouldn't drive there with a lowered vehicle or fancy sports car as there is about 1.5 miles of dirt road you have to drive on that's a bit bumpy. Just drive slowly. I didn't check the selection of rentals they had on offer as I have my own toys, but I have heard it is better than most. We got a private range on a Wednesday and it was incredibly cheap ($100 for 2 people all day, $40 each additional person). They bring out steel targets for you to use and then leave you alone to have fun. You can draw from holsters, rapid fire, do drills, etc. No 1-shot per second nonsense, Their public rifle range has steel targets out to 1000 yards so you can see how good your skills really are. Lots of fun steel targets to shoot. You can finally stretch out your rifle and those high dollar optics. For the first time I wished my 6-24x scope had more magnification. I wish this range were closer but it was only about 1 hour from the Pasadena area which isn't too bad at all for 1000 yard steel. I believe it may be the only range in the los Angeles area that has steel out to 1000, as Angeles Shooting Range is maximum 600. I am definitely going to return to this place again soon!
