But the 2-3 hours of shooting range time is a difference maker. I enrolled both my wife and I in the course. Both of us have limited experience handling/shooting firearms. After taking David's beginner course, both of us fully understand the safety aspects of handling firearms. The 2-3 hours of range time developed our confidence with handling and firing 20 different guns including revolvers and semiautomatic handguns, rifles, and shotguns. I took the state mandated firearms safety test the next week and passed. We plan to go gun shopping next week to acquire our first handgun. I highly recommend 831Shooter to anyone interested or curious about this important 1st step in potential gun ownership, or a refresher that someone needs after being away from handling firearms.

It's a gun range and store. They were pros, the shop was clean and packed with merchandise, and the service was efficient. Sometimes you'd run into someone genuinely decent, other times needlessly impatient, but nothing downright laughable. It was all good. I guess times have changed, and the other reviews I've seen reflect that. Not a big deal, really. But a little tip for business owners: it's not up to me to make your sale for you. If you're not interested in making a living selling your product, I'm happy as a clam buying it somewhere else. Sheesh.

I am not rating Dave Matthews. He appears to be a good trainer and owner based on the other…read morereviews. I am rating one of the other trainers who I randomly got for my ccw course. The good: He provided good information, was knowledgeable, and got the training done. The bad: No way would I use him again. I'm all for safety, but he was constantly threatening the class to throw us out for a mild infraction of safety protocols. Not all protocols are the same level. Yes, I would agree with him if someone pointed a l.g. at someone due to negligence. But he was maniacal with well intentioned people. Another insanity after every firing drill, looking over both shoulders. Someone is going to get a neck kink this way. It's fine to teach it, but after every firing round, this is just dumb. He just used threats to drive behavior which drove us crazy. Update: 2 star to 5 star...spoke with Dave the owner. He graciously called me to find out what happened, a sign of someone who cares. I think this particular instructor cares too and maybe was just new and a little rigid, which isn't always a bad thing when it comes to safety. I will definitely after this interaction consider FTI for my future training needs.

Hi Jeff, I am sorry to hear that you have been dealing with a back injury. Hope things are getting better for you. I actually gave Kristen permission to turn your child's account over to a collection agency. My understanding is that you were not anwering emails or phone calls from my office staff. Now, that you have communicated with us, I will delay the need to contact a collection agency as long as you communicate with Kristen Wood. My understanding is that all insurance payments were sent directly to you. However, the funds were NOT forwarded by you to us. I believe we are owed several thousand of dollars. This is a significant for us since we have to pay our staff to provide the ABA services. I have continued the services because I would not want to harm your child and my understanding is that his mother is very involved in following through with his programming. You very lucky she is so good at parenting. Kristen knows more about co-pays with regards to SARC. So, I will have to have her respond to your email about co-pays. Given that you travel a lot, I would assume that emails would be the best way to communicate with you. Please continue to respond to her emails. Best Regards, Vicci
