I learned so much from him and would highly recommend him.

At the end of the day, knowledge is power and always will.

I recently participated in the patrol rifle course at onpoint solutions and let me tell you. That…read moreis by far the most fun I have ever had with my clothes on. I have never been challenged like this in such a welcoming, immersive, and authentic way. This course challenged my fundamentals ! Let emphasize what I mean by that, being proficient in anything is just a concrete stone mastery of your basic fundamentals. I learned through this course from the instructor first hand that "All of your basics will be in your advanced techniques" all of the basics you learn will then translate into the foundation you need to build on new skills. The service is friendly as always, my fellow students were amazing guys willing to work and train with me which made me feel great! I was the bottom of the totem pole in my class but these guys really helped inspire me and the instructor waiting up for me. When I say he pushed my limits he challenged me in a good way! If I messed up, we would slow down. If I was doing perfect, we would speed up. That was the best part it's always good to have good critiquing and good pressure in your training but it's a million times better when you know you're in a safe environment ! Instructor Rico says "safety is no accident" when you're in the class he teaches and informs you with his knowledge and you learn a lot as well as laugh a lot through that experience HOWEVER ! When you get to the range instructor Rico is all business. You still have fun but your safety is his number one priority and that's the way it should be so 10 out of 10 I can't say enough about these guys with just the training ! Let's get to the bonus 1. You are working and training with a wide array of different backgrounds, people, training, personalities, and most of all different proficiency levels. But that shouldn't discourage because all of the classes I have taken here it is a three step program !! Crawl, walk, and run. If you fall behind the pack Rico will take his time to work with you one on one. Ask the same question ten times and he will make sure that you know it before he moves on. He will find a way explain it in a way you will understand. 2. The space is clean, well kept, smells nice inside, and they have chips, water, this time we had fruit etc etc. there's a fridge for your lunch if you brought your own or you need to cold store medication. That bathroom smells amazing and is spotless you could eat your lunch off of that floor and the soap smelled amazing as well. 3. Weapons, there's a sign that says no weapons beyond a certain point. I don't have a car I had to Uber to my class so I couldn't leave my carry weapon in a vehicle however I would encourage you to be straight up with instructor Rico and be honest with him. If you have it ! Tell him you have it so he can accommodate. He's such a cool and understanding guy he will help you out. Just talk to him and don't try to hide it. I told you before that the instructor focuses on safety so help him keep that class safe by complying with the few rules this place has it's not hard to follow. I will close by saying do not come to this class with low expectations because I promise you I Guarantee you ! That you will learn a whole hell of a lot more from this class than what you would expect when you come through instructor Rico's doors. It's real world scenarios and practical training for the time that we are living in here and now!!! Real world training !!! Like the old saying goes "when the people are ready the teacher will appear" the teachers are here the training is here and it can only be found at ONPOINT SOLUTIONS

The Virginia Beach Fire Training Center is located on Birdneck Rd, not too far from the…read moreintersection with General Booth Blvd. It is basically next to Birdneck Elementary School. I've been to this place several times over the years. The main reason I've come in here over the years has to do with training regarding weather. I come in every few years for the storm spotter training with the National Weather Service. This is the location they normally hold it when it is done in Va. Beach every few years. The facility itself is quite nice. You will find lots of things related to firefighting and EMS, including lots of memorabilia. Generally, you do have to have an escort or badge to get into the building, but this was not the case this particular evening since the reason for the visit was the class. Overall, this is a nice facility to visit. I will say that during the break, I did take a look at the stuff around the place, and there was quite a bit. There was stuff that I didn't think was part of firefighting, but as I looked at some of those cases, I could see how they would be part of the overall mission. If you happen to have a class or other even that brings you to this place, it's definitely worth checking out. Be sure to thank the first responders for their service to our community.

Mr. Scott Sampson is an AWESOME instructor and has my highest recommendation…read more We were given the tasks, conditions, and standards. Scott made sure that we understood the subjects, practiced hands-on, student led briefing, emergency procedures, and provided relevant information. I was impressed by Scott's knowledge, skills, attitude, and professionalism. The extra bonus is that you are welcomed in his private classroom with open arms, participate, ask questions, and take notes. Training was done to standards and students were given adequate time to go over hands-on portion of the training. Keep up the great job!!

I've always wanted to learn about using handguns for home defense, but didn't know where to begin…read more I discovered Scott's Handgun Fundamentals Class and decided to attend, but I wasn't sure what to expect. I was amazed! His class appeals to the visual, tactile, and auditory learning styles. He had an arsenal of teaching tools he used for demonstration, all of which didn't involve live fire. He showed me the different types of handguns, ammunition, how to load and unload them, what to do in the event of a malfunction, how to fire them safely, and how to store them safely. I never knew that when handling your firearm, pointing it towards a wall is not necessarily a safe direction. Scott informed me that bullets can go through multiple walls. That's not what you see on TV. When we reached the range for live fire, I felt a bit nervous, but Scott had taught me so much by that point that I felt more comfortable than I would have otherwise. He walked me through all the steps he had taught me in the classroom, which reinforced the safety aspects. Scott took his time with me and made me feel completely safe. That made all the difference! I tackled my fears head-on and discovered a level of confidence I didn't know I had! My journey did not stop there! I decided to take his concealed carry immersion class, which took my skills to the next level while reinforcing the basics. This time, I had an idea of what to expect. What I didn't know was how much more there was to learn, especially if you are considering carrying a handgun for self-defense. This was also a two-day class like the Fundamentals one I had taken. The amount of information he taught me, coupled with scenario training using his simulator, really brought everything together. My goal was to be a responsible gun owner and know what to do if I encountered a home defense-type situation. Scott's methods of teaching and his ability to combine lectures with hands-on learning far exceeded my expectations. Not only did I achieve my goal, but I still wanted to learn more! Since then, I have taken his coaching lessons, Stop the Bleed course, Less than Lethal, Refuse to be a Victim, a USCCA mini use of deadly force class, a US LawShield class he sponsored, and attended his Women on Target event. Thanks to Scott, I have empowered myself with the knowledge I need to help myself stay safe. When I go to the range now, I feel confident! I am so grateful for Scott's guidance and thrilled about all I've learned.
