Roe brought the pistol back to life and I plan to take great care of it and pass it down one day. I definitely recommend this place for all your 2A needs.

His military experience really shows in the way he teaches and explains things. This isn't my first course with Bay Area Tactical.

BAT consistently does a great job finding experienced, professional instructors who really know what they're doing. The BAT team is also a great group of guys who run a solid program. I've had a great experience every time I've trained with them and will definitely be taking more courses with BAT in the future.

The interior and overall atmosphere are really well done and there's a lot to look at. I came in to pick up a handgun, and the process was pretty thorough. You can set up an appointment online or use the kiosk when you get there. If you're picking up or purchasing a firearm, I'd definitely set aside about an hour to an hour and a half because it can take some time. The gun counter line closes at 8 PM on weekdays, so keep that in mind. The employees I dealt with were friendly, professional, and helpful throughout the process. Overall, a really good experience.

Ever since I bought and maintained a CA fishing license a few years ago, I go to BPS to for most…read more of my fishing needs. With rows and rows of tackle, I am able to find most lake specific lures, weights, bait, hooks, etc. Sometimes I have to go to the store at the lake itself and get even more specific items, but BPS usually has what I need. Whenever I enter the store, the personnel always ask if I need help or direct me to the area where more specific help can be found. Moreover, the store is dog friendly and has dog treats at the ready. Occasionally, BPS will host a Monday club night whereby if you are a BPS club member, you can stand in line to get a light meal and enter a raffle to win items, but I recommend you go early and stand in line or else there will be no more food left.

When I moved to San Jose, I needed to find a great FFL. I don't really prefer working with gun…read moreshops because they tend to be too busy with other things to take care of my transfer needs. For reference , I am a gunsmith and a former owner of Graphite Dynamics, which was a firearms development company. I ran into Friendly FFL. They are a really small place that only does DROS services and they don't sell actual firearms. Loc is a great guy who runs the place. He is an instructor as well as an RO., and he really knows his stuff. Most of all, he literally is friendly. I can tell you from my experience that a lot of FFL folks tend to be gun snobs who act like they know everything and actually look down on customers like we are peasants who know nothing about guns. It's unfortunate that this hobby has a lot of know it all jerks.. They are really friendly and best of all because they are a very knowledgeable. They are more than happy to answer your questions no matter how dumb you may think your question is.. they really do make the firearms hobby more enjoyable . it is especially important when you live in California where there are so many gun laws that changed almost monthly that it's good to have a knowledgeable person to help you deal with it all.. I haven't done any firearms transfers yet, but I've done several ammunition transfers and it was a breeze. Overall, their prices are very low and they are very good at letting you know when your stuff has come in.. As a gunsmith and former firearms company owner, I would highly recommend Friendly FFL.

CCW instructor & competitive shooter here…read more I've been going to Sunnyvale rod and gun club for quite some time now. Some days busy than others so I understand that there can be a wait sometimes. Each event was warranted understandably so. However, today was ridiculous. I arrived with two friends to get them to shoot their guns and offer some guidance. We arrived at 6:45pm got in line and got placed in the waitlist queue. We waited for about an hour and 15 min - we were told that it would be 40mins - then my name gets called I signed in, my friend signed in, then my other friend started having issues with the tablet. It stated it "failed to sign in" About 5min have passed. The range master comes to the tablet he spends 10 mins trying to figure things out, and just took his sweet time. After a total of 20 mins passed the range master just walked away not really giving us an answer. I asked "is there a manual way to sign in?" "In an event the tablet goes down, y'all don't have physical documentation you can use in a situation like this?" The person at the register just looked at me and said "No". You gotta be kidding me. That literally makes no sense. So an hour passed + the staff wasting 20 min, they told us to "call it a night" Simply because their tablet to sign in. Wasn't working. I want to come back. Whenever need to do some testing, zeroing, chrono, this was the place to go. There's always good vibes here, but this definitely put a bad taste in my mouth.

Finally had the chance to come here and I'm so happy I did…read more Once you drive over the hill entering the parking lot, you see a massive parking lot. On the right side is a huge trap shooting area and at the back of the parking lot is where you check in for the pistol and rifle range. You sign in, read review the rules and pay the fee ($25 per person). From there you'll be assigned a bay depending on what you're shooting. Once you enter the range, you go to your bay and set up. Note that you must have eye protection and ear protection on at all times when you're inside the shooting area. If you shoot rifle, they have stands depending if you're lefty or righty. You can shoot seated or laying down, supported or unsupported. I don't think they allow you to shoot rifle standing up for safety purposes. For pistol, they have steel targets or free paper targets anywhere between 25 to 100 yards. The steel targets at 25 yards is a little far for first time shooters. The steel target is about the size of an average size backpack. So at 25 yards it might seem hard to hit for first time shooters. So I recommend getting a big paper target so you have a better chance to hit the target. The far targets are 100 yards. More meant for rifle, but if you're good with a pistol it's a fun challenge. You can shoot the steel gong, or set up paper targets. The range attendants are very strict about the rules but this is common and expected because safety so important when dealing with firearms. I advise first timer shooters to read and know the rules before entering the facility. There are bathrooms to the back left of the parking lot next to the huge cool shotgun shell structure. What a fun first time here. I'm definitely coming back. Maybe even pursue a membership one of these days.
