This was my target. So much better than my first time at another range and instructions.
Gladys A.

I went today to Marks man on 29th. I reviewed basic firearm with Rich the assistant Manager. He is an excellent instructor, informative,kind and very patient. I had taken a previous CCW course and Rich gave more information, and technical instruction then I could imagine. Given in a very clear way not to overwhelm you! He was amazing with range instruction positive reinforcement and suggestions really worked. It was my 2nd time to a range & handle a weapon. I will go back for sure for practice shooting. I recommend you take classes with Rich. Thanks Rich.

Ricochet impact to my throat at marksman pistol range in Tucson, Az on 28 March 2021

At first glance this appears to be a decent range. Multiple employees present and a reasonably clean range. The posted range rules are only there to keep the insurance underwriters placated. Absolutely no engagement by employees to keep patrons safe. I was stuck multiple times by ricochets from shooters discharging rounds into the floor and ceiling to include an impact to the throat and legs. When I brought the unsafe condition to an employee he said "that's just what happens," and laughed with a smug look on his face. If you do your job and pay attention to what the shooters are doing, it does not happen. This place has potential but employee apathy will keep me from wasting my money here in the future.

I think it's appropriate to bulletpoint this one:…read more *Staff - lax. That is never a good look. And I am not saying that they all were, but if you're the first impression and handing out intake forms at a shooting range, you better look and sound like you take your job, or at least your tasks, seriously. And there is a reason why I am bringing this up first. *Safety - I am happy to be alive to write this because some careless !#@&$ in lane 2 decided to aim her fmj-loaded pistol sideways trying to fix a jam, ready to take out everyone from lane 2 to 10. It was another customer who called the cease fire but someone who worked there should have seen that. Someone from the range came out eventually but I would have made that person watch the video again or ejected them from place at my discretion. I do not play! *Sound - This was the loudest indoor range ever. My friend and I felt like we had to put inner earplugs and then over-the-ear earplugs. *Target retrieval system - kind of janky. Every time I recalled my target, the paper would fly into my face. *Pricing - reasonable but they have things to improve to really make it worth it.

The place is much updated over the last owner. My last…read morevisit, the range coolers weren't working properly and the temperature was upper nineties, at best. The primer and powder residue in the air... you could taste it. Very un healthy. You have a good thing going. Don't ruin it with poor enviornmentals. and a suggestion. Set aside some time for rifles only. The concussion and over pressure from the ARs is BAD.

520 Tactical - It's probably been six months since I've been to the range so I'm not too sad about this, but clearly I'll be making a few more visits!

I just moved to Arizona from Cali and let's just say was very excited to see the wider range of…read morefirearms available to the pubic. I visited a few local gun stores in the Phoenix area let's just say customer service is not everybody's forte. I was in one other store and there was nobody else in there and I asked clerk a few questions and he was being very rude and acted like I was bothering him from being to busy sitting on his chair, crazy if you ask me! I was in the the Tucson area and found out 2nd Amendment had a local store. So I thought I'd pay them a visit. I was looking for parts for my Ruger precision and a gentleman by the name of John was happy to help me very friendly and answered all my questions and got what I needed. I wasn't planning on buying any big ticket items but Johns customer service was very knowledgeable and helpful so I decided to purchase my first over 10 round capacity handgun from him. Thank you very much Second Amendment and a shout out to John!

If you buy a pepper spray specifically, just pray that if you need it, it may fail. I tried a short squirt with the one I purchased because I had never owned one and wanted to make I understood how to operate it. I then regretted that I hadn't paid attention to how far the spray went. So I tried it a few days later and it didn't spray at all. . .so if one misses attackers eye area, one would not be able to re-aim and correct your aim. . . and beware, some may have no spray in them at all.
