    "Outstanding follow-up to basic fundamentals today with emphasis on precision and trigger control. Next step will be drawing and safely firing from a concealed holster."

    "This facility offers world class service in firearms training. It's a climate-controlled Lazer gun range with properly weighted pratice guns. CO2 cartridge mimicks appropriate recoil. Shooters can finally practice safely with moving targets. This place really is the best, and if you are serious about improving your game, call Chris!"
