I came here in a group, 2 of us had NEVER TOUCHED a gun mind you and the other 2 hadn't shot guns…read morein YEARS. We told them that from the jump. I would like to say the main guy who helped sign us up was super nice and helpful. We asked for someone to come in and show us how to load, unload, and shoot the guns and they never did. In fact when I asked one fella if he would be able to come in and help us he said "yea maybe if it's not busy it's pretty straightforward" and was really smug about it. Also it's not if youve never even held one before but okay. We struggled the whole time and overall didn't enjoy our experience bc of that( us girls at least lol) We were really excited for this experience but honestly was kinda let down. Also when I called about pricing they did not mention you had to pay for ear muffs and eye protection. I also burned my chest because there was no mention on the website or phone call that bullets are super hot ? And I know most ppl would say that's common sense but again I've never been around guns or held them so that was a suprise. 1/10

Great experience at a recent and first visit to Center Target Sports. Friendly and helpful staff…read moreand got to try shooting various types of guns (handgun and 2 types of M4s). You can rent all the gear you need including protective wear (glasses and ear protection) and the staff fully walks you through everything if you are new to shooting. Beware it can get expensive with the ammo, however, it's a fun experience and especially getting to do it with my son and new daugher in-law.

Rowan Taylor is a high-level firearm trainer who provides customized training for all levels. He…read moreoffers personalized training for beginners up to the advanced shooter. When I first saw Rowan at a shooting competition, his speed and accuracy were so impressive I thought, "I want to shoot like that guy!" I started working with him for conceal carry and competitive shooting. Rowan's range instruction, detailed training summaries, and homework assignments have quickly propelled my gun handling to another level. In less than two months, I went from being a novice at conceal carry to being comfortable and confident. Everything is much faster, my draw, reloading, and moving between targets. If you want to progress with your gun, I highly recommend you take a trial session with Rowan. You will have a great time and learn a ton!

This is definitely a gun club and not your average Joe shooting range. I visited this place with my…read morehubby and toddler today to sign up for a membership and complete a facility tour/safety briefing. All I can say is WOW!!! Between the ample shooting bays, the large classrooms, a seating area for dining, an outdoor area to barbecue food, access to the kitchen stocked with beverages available for purchase, the comprehensive safety features of the 400 yard rifle range, I can go on and on about this place. I also must mention that this range is kept so neat, clean, and orderly, which is super important for firearms safety. As for range staff, Chief Firearms Instructor George Howley is probably the friendliest Firearms Instructor I've ever met, and I have many years of shooting instruction and classes under my gun belt. The fact that shooting legend Massad Ayoob taught at this facility last week with George as his safety officer speaks volumes about both the facility and George. My only regret with FRGC is not signing up sooner as memberships run from January to January. But needless to say, we will definitely be renewing come January!!

The two men that came out of the woodwork and pounced on my boyfriend and I like we were there to rob the place should be ashamed of themselves!

I was visiting some friends in the area and decided to tag along to this workshop despite…read moreCalifornia not being a open-carry state. There's really not much else to do in this area so I figured I might as well attend this workshop. Malia, the class coordinator, was flexible about letting me register at literally the last minute to take this class with my friends. I have to admit, I was pleasantly surprised at how well the class was designed. The brief lecture was far from boring, the instructor, Chris was very thorough and seemed to be an expert on the subject matter. Don't get me wrong - its a long course - almost 4 and a half hours long - but Chris is a very efficient, patient and thorough instructor. I honestly did not realize how quickly time passed because the material content and his presentation/delivery techniques made the material easy to grasp and understand. I especially liked how he tailored his content to both audiences who have been around and using guns all their lives - to those with limited exposure to them - myself being in the latter group. What I really appreciate about Chris's class is how much emphasis he places on safety and awareness - I think that alone shows the level of respect Chris has for an subject area that has drawn countless debates. I highly recommend taking this course. Even if it may not be legal (yet) to carry in your state, the permit you do end up getting is valid in nearly half the US. In addition, the level of knowledge you take away from this class alone, gives you more awareness and respect for gun use/safety.

After moving to Sandpoint in 2013 from a state on the coast south of here, which will remain…read morenameless...ok, ok...Kommiefornia, Wrenco Arms was the first gun store I visited. Now keep in mind this was the OLD ownership, and as I walked through the front door the room went from loud, jovial talking, to dead silence. All eyes were on me as I moved about the store, checking it out. No one said a word to me; no greeting, no one asked if they could help me find something. NOTHING! The atmosphere seemed almost hostile, like I didn't belong in the store so I quickly left and never went back. Several months later I was looking through a real estate magazine and saw Wrenco was for sale and for a split second I thought about buying the business. Again, for a split second. Then, several more months later, I saw Wrenco was under new ownership. This could be a good thing, I thought, so I went in to the store to look around again. When I entered the store this young guy approached me, extended his hand and told me his name is Brandon, the new owner. He actually thanked me for coming in to the store, and asked if I need help finding anything. WOW! What a difference from my first experience! I recently purchased a new rifle I had been wanting for a very long time, a Remington 700 Sendero SF ll in 7mm Rem. Mag. and Grant handled the sales transaction and background check which, with my CCW, took maybe 10 minutes. The entire staff at Wrenco Arms are very knowledgeable and friendly. I especially like the fact that they remember my name. It may not seen like much to some people, but to me it means they appreciate my business. Does Wrenco Arms have the cheapest prices on everything they sell? Probably not. However, their prices are more than fair, and, there is much to be said for the exceptional level of customer service they offer. And personally, I find it very difficult to place a price on someone else's knowledge, experience, and expertise. To Brandon, Grant, and the rest of the team at Wrenco (sorry I don't remember your names; I have a closed head T.B.I. or traumatic brain injury and moderate/severe memory loss) congratulations on your success, and I wish you even more in the future!

I don't enjoy leaving negative reviews, but after years of consistent experiences with this shop, I…read morefeel it's warranted and maybe it will save someone else from this nonsense. The biggest issues have been consistently poor customer service, an unwelcoming atmosphere and prices that are often higher than nearby competitors. One major concern that has always bothered me is hearing employees gossip and make petty disparaging comments regarding local customers and other businesses. It's unprofessional and doesn't inspire confidence, trust or reflect good character. I've heard similar stories from others over the years. You can find anything online for less these days and half the appeal of a local gun shop is building relationships and enjoying the experience but I've never found that here. This has been consistent with the old and new ownership- I've been treated with more courtesy at Walmart. The best way I can describe this shop's vibe is this: it's basically a high school locker room- except it's full of all the people that nobody likes and who probably don't like you. Even firearm and NFA transfers (which should be straightforward) have been unpleasant enough here that I have absolutely no reason to walk in there. Over time, most of the people we know have quit doing business there for one reason or another, myself now included. There are plenty of decent firearms retailers in North Idaho staffed by people who treat you like they appreciate your business and your time.

He is very knowledgeable about firearms. I left my rifle there for about 10 days, and he went through it, repairing the rear peep sight, and the magazine feeding tube (which was bent, and non functional). Now the rifle works and looks great - keeping the old patina intact! Jerry got the work done on time - and at a reasonable price for the time he spent on it. I will go there again for any gunsmith work.

If you've ever walked into a g@n store and dreaded talking to the fudds at the counter, this place will be a huge relief. They know their stuff, they aren't pushy, and the store itself has WAY more items than you might think. They have a lot of things I usually would order online because you wouldn't expect to find them locally. Suppressor mounts and hubs, flashlight tape switches, good, high end NVGs, steel targets, and they personally test a huge majority of the gear they sell - and then put up well made YouTube videos with the results. If you've ever bought an NFA item from a shop and then had them sit on your approval for days or weeks... another sigh of relief with ECG. From what I can tell, they strive to get notifications out to customers the day they get the approvals from the ATF. No games like I've played with a lot of other NFA shops over the last 14 years. Overall, if you've never been in - you should support these guys.
