Went to the WSC today to take a class in pistol saftey, to obtain my permit to carry a firearm…read more Setting up an appointment for a class was very easy. I had one on one instruction from an instructor Joe Fee. He helped my girlfriend with the basics of fire arms saftey and pistol operation. While she was nervous at the beginning of shooting portion, Joe made her feel comfortable and she got the shooting down pat hitting the bullseye a few times before the end of the session. She had never fired a pistol before. The class was informal yet informitive, with lots of hands on instruction. Joe was very informitive an had great answers for even my dumbest questions. Highlights: indoor heated pistol range. indoor archery range, one on one instruction, easy to get to (right off the highway) relaxed atmosphere.

He has great communication skills, was open to questions and is just a genuinely good and honest person. You'll learn everything you need to know with this course, even if you have no experience with firearms. Firearms can be frightening, but Mike has a way of calming you down to understand that when the proper procedures and safety precautions are followed, they can be handled safely. Mike also shows you tips and skills that may help you in real life scenarios, especially some that could potenially save your life. I'm grateful that I took my course here. Highly recommend Mass Firearm Safety Training for your Massachusetts License to Carry.

The worst customer service experience that I've had in my life…read more This training center is so uninterested in communicating with customers that the quality of their services is COMPLETELY irrelevant. I got my certificate from them a couple years ago when I applied for my FID. It's a long story, but I need another copy of certificate. I go to their website to lookup my info to see if I'm in their records, and find out that I need to contact them for a manual search. No one picked up when I called with the phone number on their website, and no one replied to my voicemail. I found a second phone number, which gave me the same results, but the voicemail message told me that the best way to reach them is over text. I try sending a text to the number, but it doesn't deliver. Eventually I found an email address to try. I never got a reply. Then I tried DMing their official Instagram page. No reply there, either. I decided to stop by the facility in person to ask them about my certificate, and also why they so hard to reach, and the place is locked during the hours when the website and google maps claims they're open. I showed up again and FINALLY caught them when they were actually holding a class. After telling me at first that they didn't have my certificate, with enough pushing they finally pulled it up. Then they had the nerve to charge me 20 bucks to print a copy. I hope that this is enough to deter you from giving these people your money, but maybe all you care about is the quality of the training itself. So, how was it? Fine, I guess. Sort of. A good sign that you can trust someone for advice about personal safety is whether they're in somewhat healthy physical shape. My instructor (both 4 years ago and now) couldn't self-defense his way out of a narrow doorway. Along with his neglect of fitness, I also distinctly remember him saying not to carry Glocks because they don't have manual safeties, which is ignorant and outdated advice.

The 'Certified MA Firearms Safety' class was FULL of useful information for a beginner, like…read moremyself, but also could serve as a refresher course for those who have more experience. Daniel had a deep knowledge, and passion, for the topics discussed and he encouraged open discussion/Q&A which kept the class seemingly effortless. The process of pursuing an LTC for the first time (or ownership of any firearm) can very well be an intimidating process initially and courses can be stuffy/awkward but Daniel really helped one to digest the very serious topics, responsibilities and laws of gun ownership through engaging conversation, an open dialogue and a wonderful presentation. I'd certainly recommend New England Firearms for anyone, at whatever phase, while pursuing fire arm ownership in MA.

I recently got my LTC and Steven was very helpful in helping me pick out a firearm that was the right size for me. He was even willing to go to the shop with me to look and help me learn how to clean it. Steve goes the extra mile.

The appointment was easy to make through text messages and we were able to get one day of (but note they do not accept walk ins). You also have to have ID and pay in cash so do not forget these things. This was my first time ever at a shooting range, but due to the great staff, I wasn't nervous and the instructions are very clear on what to do. We got to shoot a few different types of guns and got to shoot at some paper targets and metal targets at the end of the range. There is also supposed to be a time limit, but as a group of 4 we never felt rushed and really enjoyed our time! Would come again!
