By the time my exited my vehicle and grabbed my equipment, staff had opened the doors and starting letting everyone in. The patrons in front of me grabbed 4-5 lanes, so I was easily able to secure a lane; I was loading and making ready to fire by 10:15. They kept my ID for the duration of my range session and charged me the listed rate of $25 for a non-member, one lane-hour fee. Facility seemed well kept and modern. Ventilation worked well; I didn't notice any gunpowder residue clouds wafting around. It also seemed decently sound insulated. The guy a few lanes down shooting his binary trigger AR didn't bother me much.

I do wish that the range's waiver would be valid for longer than 90 days, all other ranges that I go to/have gone to keep the waivers valid for 90, but what can I do? While the entire staff is wonderful, Brandon is great. I keep visiting because of how awesome their staff is, though I do hope that they fix their AC, it makes it impossible to use the range.

After a brief conversation I took his info and a few weeks later I emailed him. Best decision I could have made. Mind you his place is in NH and I'm coming from the South Shore of Mass and I'm sure there's a few places like NET that are closer for me however the drive was worth it. Mike is professional and safety oriented while making it fun as well. I'm a decent shooter and I thought I knew some stuff but I realized fast that I have a long way to go to say the least. Lol. Already can't wait to drive up there again for my next with him. Great guy great class. If you get the chance and want to learn the correct way to shoot in a safe and fun environment then Mike is the way to go. Honestly I'm seriously impressed with the class. I know I can speak for my brother in law also as he is looking forward to coming up again. Thanks Mike see you soon!

I took the Pistol 1 course in Albuquerque, NM. I couldn't have been more satisfied, making the…read morewhole travel from NV worth it. Ian is well versed and knowledgeable and extremely humble as well. The course was well laid out to push everyone to their own individual limits, starting with fundamentals to more complex courses of fire. The class was a decent amount not too small and not too big as well. I feel the number of participants was optimal for every individual that they are able to learn in a group but dial down their own skills with Ian being able to coach each one by their side. I've learned an enormous amount about myself and the course that I am able to apply to the real world and to certain scenarios in my occupation. I am already signed up for the next courses in ABQ and definitely recommend everyone from all walks of life to take at least one. At the end of the day, "No one is coming to save you."

No. I was expecting, like one does with a business line, a recorded message offering information or asking for the caller to leave their name and number so someone can call back at their convenience.
