I just got off the phone with somebody at the rental counter. I'm looking to buy a new firearm and…read moreasked if they had them in stock and it was grilled like I was a criminal. I had to run a gauntlet over the phone of questions only to be told that I wouldn't be allowed to come and test or shoot because I would be alone and had not been in the store over a year in over a year. I made it clear that I was looking to purchase an item but wanted to see if they had it at the rental counter first so that I could try it first in a gentleman. I was speaking to ran a litany of items that I would have to pay before I could even get in there to test it out range fees once a year cleaning fees first time fees rent my gun fee pay for my ammo fee, not use my own ammo, etc.. The last time I was in there I had to run my license to buy shotgun shells. Range USA seems to be coming an extension of the ATF and not a retail firearm store. Sad to say I won't be going back there. There are plenty of places out there that I can do this without their hassle. Maybe I should just wait for another name change of the store and I will have a different management philosophy.

The things I have learned from these guys are absolutely priceless! The trainers have REAL WORLD experience folks, they know how to train you the right way so that if something bad were to happen you know how to react. SOME of the things I have learned so far is, correctly drawing from a holster, quickly and effectively finding my site picture, shooting while under pressure, shooting from multiple positions, shooting from behind cover, quickly and effectively clearing a jams, shooting in both low light and no light situations, plus the added benefit of doing most of this with your off hand! You never know the situations that you will end up in, so do yourself a favor and stop thinking that just having your CCW is enough, its really not. Spend the money, learn from the best, and protect both yourself and your loved ones when the worst happens.

As others have mentioned,…read morethere are a lot of sales pitches for upsells in the class, but this is a family-run business and they have 3 kids to feed, so this is understandable. I got a ton of useful information from the lawyer that presented the law side of things. Both Kevin's and Alisha's presentations were engaging, so they made the 6 hour classroom time pass by quickly. The range instructors were extremely helpful and attentive. I brought my own pistol, so I was part of the "intermediate" shooting group during the 2 hour range session. They had us drill an exercise that was just slightly higher paced than the beginner (safety and basic shooting skills) part of the class. I also got some helpful tips to help me improve my shooting. All in all, great experience. I highly recommend this business.
