Had the pleasure of working with Dan @Unitedshootingsolutions this week…read more I would highly recommend United Shooting Solutions for first time shooters, as well as experienced marksmen that would like to improve on their skillset, or develop a new one. Dan is the "man" and from start to finish we felt we were in great hands. He made us feel extremely safe and his teaching style allowed us to accomplish skills we had not thought possible. His one on one class format provides the opportunity to learn how to operate your firearm safely in potential real world situations. One on one instructions is definitely the way to go, as he customizes he teaching to your specific needs. He also made it fun! We had the best day! Cant recommend him enough. Thanks, Dan!

My daughter and I took the basic/intro pistol class. Dan was easy to work with and accommodated my…read moretricky schedule. Dan advised me what kind/where to get ammo. As I own zero firearms, Dan let me and my daughter shoot with a couple of his. The private ranch/range where we shot is secluded and beautiful. Sergio Leone would have loved this place. After getting us comfortable with the basic safety and operation of the weapon we were to shoot, Dan showed us how to put the bullet on the intended target and worked with us -using repetition and feedback- until this happened. Dan had an assistant/photographer, Lisa, help him out. Lisa made the day even more smooth and efficient. So after all was said-and-done, I had a blast. I would 100% do that class -or another one- again with United Shooting Solutions (Dan).

I really liked the instructors, and at one point a police officer even came in and taught part of the class. The class was long, but between the instructions and the range shooting the time went quickly. I would highly recommend this class to anyone thinking about getting proper certification for concealed carry.

My original plan was to try out 2-3 instructors, then decide who I felt was the best fit for me in the sense of training style and personality. After my first session with Ben, my plans changed. It didn't take long to realize he is extremely knowledgable, but more importantly, his process of teaching makes you feel comfortable and speeds up the learning process. I thoroughly enjoy working with him, and am purchasing more sessions to train with him weekly to improve my skills.

Absolutely abysmal...I have waited almost a year to leave this review…read more This isn't a hack job or a hit piece. This is a legit review. Perhaps at some point I will leave a detailed review. As a person who has been to many firearms classes, is an instructor and a CRSO, this was one of the worst...ever. Literally, my mouth fell open on two occasions and I almost left both times. It was just awful. We were asked to leave comments on cards...our entire group of 14. We did not. There was no fixing it so what was the point? When you call and get the announcement it says "Idaho's Premier/Foremost/Best Training Facility ". That is not true, but it would be even more sad if it was. I cannot emphasize enough...it was such a disappointment and actually pretty sad because it has massive potential.

It was comprehensive, entertaining, and educational all while maintaining a 'lite' feel. There was a wide array of attendees ranging from complete new gun owners to those with moderate firearms experience. There was no pressure, 'judging', or intimidation from Klaus or fellow students. Klaus is surprisingly funny, and I found the guest speaker (an Idaho State Police Investigator) who spoke about Idaho laws and the use of deadly force to be especially interesting. The range time was held at Impact Guns. It's an excellent facility- clean, helpful employees, and our range marshal was very helpful. My wife just took his Basic Pistol Safety Class, and I am already enrolled in American Firearms Academy's AR-15 Level 1 Class and another Level 2 class occasionally offered. Enjoy his "nuggets"!
