He even took extra time in his day to make sure we all got the right amount of training. Will be taking more classes in the future from him. Big focus on safety and mental mindset of owning firearms which I really appreciated. Took a beginner class, and I look forward to taking others in the future. Fair price for the time he spent with us and knowledge he has to offer.

All of my questions were answered, demonstrations were very informative, and I received personal corrections that were very helpful in my learning process!

It is a bit costly but I would say it worth the price if you come regularly. It's also a great option for me as it includes the rental fees and I'd like to try different guns each time. The staffs are very helpful and friendly. One small thing to mention: They do provide shotguns for rental but the only standard option is KS7, which is cool if it's not jamming. I went to rent it twice and it both jammed. Staffs are nice as they switched Benelli M4 to me which was intended to be a "premium" rental. Would be nicer if they also provide 590/870/any other pump-action shotguns as standard options in the future. Apart from that, there's nothing I can complain. There was a time I went to the range with a friend who's shooting for the first time. Chris was very helpful and provides my friend with a quick but through intro and some other helps. For the shop: Great service. There's a young staff who is really friendly and helpful. No one would push you to make decisions here (which I like it) but you can always find helps if needed.

If you need an expert to help you understand your strengths and opportunities as a firearm handler, Clark is who you want teaching and coaching you. His balanced and relentlessly positive approach teaches you the technical aspects of firearm handling and enables you to feel confident, even as a novice shooter. He understands how to work on one thing at a time and help you progress through the procedures to a point of competency. I took his CCW class today. Knowing I have a LOT of practice needed to gain command of proper techniques, I'm already more confident in CCW because I understand the context and procedure to concealed carry and the optimal approach. Now it's time to practice, practice, practice and perfect. Thank you Clark!
