This place is excellent, first time I went the staff was extremely helpful, especially I had never held a gun I was using ever and they walked me through it, the RSO was very helpful with fixing my jamming gun (which was my fault as I was limp-wristing it). They walked through buying a gun less than a week later and ever talked me out of buying a more expensive gun and buying a gun more fitted to my lack of knowledge which was cheaper than the gun I was going to buy based on just because I have heard of that gun. Then took a class with some friend that was taught by Danny who was amazing teacher and made me feel more confident with shooting and coming to the range, as I came from culture of guns=bad. The facility is top notch as the air is filtrated out well and its kept clean throughout the store. They staff always is willing to answer any questions, sometimes a little too much I would joke, if you pose an inquiry about something, they will go above and beyond to answer the question which is good, but was more just trying to be conversational, but certainly wouldn't hold that against them. Their prices for guns seem to be similar to other places. The classes seem slightly more expensive than other local ranges classes but I rather pay a little more for more complete training than cheaper classes and not getting as much info. One other perk is if you ever need a pen, just go there and sign anything, they usually have told me to keep the pen. I am currently a member and those benefits pay for themselves pretty quickly.
