The Valken Group arrived at my house just past 8:00 a.m., and when the team left 5.5 hours later,…read moremy understanding of firearms skyrocketed. I cannot recommend these guys with any higher praise. In one session, "Advanced Session Two," I went from knowing the basics of firearms to now having the tactical knowledge and high confidence in how to best handle and employ my firearms. Scott, my instructor -and also the Valken Group founder and CEO- walked me through every room of my house, instructed me on how best to take tactical positions, how to retreat, where to take cover, how, when, and where I would have to switch to my weak-side shooting hand to best keep the bad guys at bay. After completing the "Advanced Session Two" course, I went from a guy with a gun to a guy who pities the fool who tries to break into his house. It won't be a fair fight. Not even close. This is not overconfidence. Let me explain more about what I learned. First. Let me back up a minute. The Valken Group comes to your house anywhere in Georgia! They set up these backstops, target posts, and shell-catching side panels. No one else in the United States provides this kind of in-home instruction. This is where it gets super cool. Scott opened up this beautiful case loaded with modified Glock 17s. Check out the photo, especially the mags. The rounds are not packed with gun powder. They are called "Simunition," a non-lethal training ammo that allows you to shoot anywhere without the constraints and dangers of using live ammo (imagine shooting 150 rounds of 9mm inside your house). The military uses Simunition to go "Force-on-Force," allowing it to get as realistic as possible to real-life fire fights. The Simunition itself, as I understand it, are rounds packed with nothing more than air pressure, and the bullet is this little putty-like stuff that won't even penetrate a thick sheet of plastic. You learn to shoot in the comfort and privacy of your own home. Everything is tailored to your goals. From first-time gun owners to advanced folks looking for professionalization skills, the Valken Group will develop a program within their course offerings to ensure you achieve your specific goals. I signed up for the "Advanced Session Two" and let the guys know that I also had specific interests in close protection. Scott led me through multiple drills. By the end of the day, I knew how to hit multiple small areas on a target, I knew how to shoot controlled pairs, I knew how to count my shots, I knew how to do tactical and essential mag changes, I knew how to release the slide rack while staying on target, I knew how to move from different ready positions to firing accurately and rapidly. My knowledge, ability, and confidence have increased in ways I did not think were possible with a single day of drills. Scott also left me with drills to practice on my own. I wish there were a way to heap even more praise on the Valken Group. I signed my girlfriend and her dad up for training in March. I am going to take the next level course in January. Thank you, Scott and Jeff. I had a great day and I learned an immense amount about how to protect myself and my family when our lives are on the line.

This is one of our favorite spots for a date night. The staff members who help reserve our timeslot…read moreand set us up for the range are always friendly and welcoming; I love that they seem to remember us each time! Pro Tip: It is best to reserve a lane at least 2-4 hours before they close. They book up fast, especially on busier nights! The facilities are consistently clean, though the trash bins inside the range can occasionally get overfilled with cardboard targets- honestly not a big deal, just a minor observation! We really appreciate the wide selection of rental firearms and the variety of targets, which turns our range time into a fun, competitive game night. Don't be fooled by the first room you walk into; the facility is actually massive. They have a great restaurant with both indoor and rooftop dining (and great drinks!), as well as outdoor ranges and archery. The location is also very convenient as it's tucked away from busy roads, making for a stress-free drive. Considering the current climate, the pricing feels fair. I'm happy to pay for an environment that is clean, safe, and respectful. We love coming here and enjoy the experience every time!

Real cool to have a place that serves game…read more Started with the bacon wrapped quail. I was super excited about the combo. The execution lacked a little. It was overdone a bit drying out the bacon and quail. I had elk chops for the main and was just as excited for those. I asked for a medium rare cook. That is the way to go with such a lean meat. They cooked it perfectly as it was nice and juicy. The sear/char was also great. I was left wanting a little more seasoning on the chop. In all a good meal just could improve on some of the details.

Dropped in to try out my new Glock. I'm not used to going to gun ranges (family has always owned…read morehunting property), and this was the only second time for me going to one. Nerve racking in a sense, because you don't want to look like an idiot. Here are some pointers: - make sure you have safety glasses - make sure you have ear protection - you can rent or buy these items there - they have targets for purchase - you can get a membership there for $30/month and gain access to their lounge and utilize other weapons to practice with (plus eye and ear protection is included when you go) - they sell ammo The lanes were super clean and a space underneath the shooting area to store your bag. They have multiple indoor ranges, which I LOVED. This way if only 2-3 people are in there, you don't have to be in the same range. The two guys running it all up front were super cool. Easy small talk. I'll be back again, and possibly with my girlfriend and her damn pink 9mm gun (ok, she doesn't have one yet but that's what we plan to get her for protection). Women and accessorizing . Would recommend. Clean place!

I've been coming to shoot at the range for over 6 years and Sandy Springs Gun and Range has always…read morehad a great bunch of guys that both work behind the sales counter and at the range desk. They are always super helpful, not pretentious, and easy to talk to and ask questions of. In dealing with gun shops in the past, it's easy to find some very "interesting " folks that look down their nose at you. At SS Gun and Range everyone I've ever interacted with have been helpful, supportive and made what potentially could be a challenging interaction a pleasant, informative and smooth process. If you are in need of a firearm for hunting, range use or personal/home protection, there is not a better place to shop, learn and purchase from than the folks at Sandy Springs Gun & Range. The gentleman that helped me was a manager by the name of Anthony, but everyone there is great and easy to work with.
