    Mike C.

    $30 to shoot 8am-2pm on a Sunday. Steel targets and swingers at 100 yards increments all the way to 600 yards. Had a ton of fun precision shooting. Can't wait to go back! Check the schedule on their website because open to the public shooting is rare at this range. The 800+ yard targets were taken down because bullets were ricocheting into some mine somewhere up the hill.

    Best outdoor range around. Wish it was open to the public more often, but when it's open, longest distance of 897 yards is awesome.

While the location is a drive through windy roads and limited cell service to get to training location in Hemet, it was worth the time to learn a skill rather than the previous experiences we had with our spouses just shooting. When my best friend told me she had seen ads on Facebook promoting a woman-owned gun store, I immediately adjusted our plans and contacted the owner, Brandi, who accommodated us with a private lesson on a day not listed on the online schedule. Brandi was super responsive and paying the invoice sent to my email was seamless. After the lesson was over, we couldn't stop talking in the car drive back about how relaxed and more confident we felt with a pistol. The proper technique behind breathing was a game changer, as well as practicing the difference between the wall and trigger. We felt we weren't rushed or in competition with one another and the time given to us to demonstrate understanding before moving onto the next task was so valuable since we were beginners. The prices for different types of lessons, including try before you buy, are very reasonable. And another great part about the whole experience is that Brandi herself is kind, knowledgeable, patient, and overall approachable. Check out her YouTube and IG videos, the website is easy to navigate as well.

From start to finish, the professionalism, safety, and expertise were unmatched. Brietta Brandi has an incredible ability to break down complex techniques into easy-to-understand steps, making it comfortable for beginners while still challenging experienced shooters to improve. Their focus on safety is second to none, and they maintain a calm, encouraging environment that builds both skill and confidence. The range itself is well-organized and equipped with everything you could possibly need. Staff members are knowledgeable, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. Every detail--from check-in to the final shots--was handled with care and efficiency. I left feeling more skilled, more confident, and truly respected as a student. If you want a top-tier training experience with someone who genuinely cares about your success, look no further than Brandi at Fortune Firearms. Absolutely A++++ and HIGHLY recommended! One of the things that makes Brandi even more remarkable is that she is a Black female firearms instructor--something you rarely see in this industry. She's not only breaking barriers, but setting the bar incredibly high for professionalism, expertise, and mentorship. Her presence in this space is inspiring, and she's a powerful example for anyone who believes representation matters. She proves that skill, knowledge, and leadership know no bounds.

He does an excellent job explaining both the legal side and the practical, real-world considerations of carrying, and he takes the time to answer every question thoroughly.

The course was well organized, informative, and engaging from start to finish. Patrick creates a comfortable learning environment while still emphasizing safety and responsibility, which I really appreciated. If you're looking for a CCW instructor who is patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in his students, I highly recommend Patrick Russ.

But after my third disappointing experience at North County Shooting Center, something needs to be said. As an experienced shooter, I came in with a reasonable request -- simply to use a tool for a minor fix I was fully capable of doing myself. Instead of any assistance, I was met with poor customer service, a dismissive attitude, and unprofessional staff behavior. The response I received felt smug and unhelpful, which is the exact opposite of what a well-run range should offer. What's even more frustrating is that this isn't an isolated incident. This range consistently shows a lack of support for customers, even those who clearly know what they're doing. Meanwhile, Poway Weapons & Gear continues to provide excellent service, respectful staff, and real customer care -- a night-and-day difference. Because of this ongoing pattern, I won't be returning, and I'll make sure other shooters know not to waste their time or money here. Places like this need to hear when their customer experience is pushing people away.
