This is a multi year review…read more I've been going to KranzFTG for most of his classes (from beginner pistol all the way through to Advanced 1&2, Carbine, etc). Jeff and his instructors are incredibly professional, knowledgeable and experienced. Anyone who owns a gun and hasn't been to some training absolutely needs to take his classes. For beginners you can literally show up with a brand new gun still in the box and they'll walk you through everything in his Handgun 101 class. For experienced shooters, look at Advanced Handgun, and Carbine classes. I've shot at training courses in CA, NV and here in north TX and Kranz is among the best. Friendly, has great expertise to pass along and you're absolutely walking away more experienced and ready.

I love being able to talk and joke about a range of things ( pun intended ). The range is clean and ran with safety as a priority. The only issue I have is my fat ass feels like I'm about to break their chairs. That's more a "me" issue though. I think I will only shoot here as I feel like family when I am there. Even if by family, I mean that cousin you tolerate. :). Seriously though, this place is an awesome place to send rounds down range. Highly recommend!!!!

They are always attentive. I've visited on Wednesday for Ladies Day a couple of times. There is always someone available in the shooting area for questions and concerns. That person will offer suggestions or assistance from time to time. When we visit on other days they are not "standing at the ready" in the same way, so that is definitely a benefit for ladies who are trying to get more comfortable with shooting. I'm not very experienced yet and they have been so helpful as I learn. Silly little things happen when you are trying to reload or the gun jams or something. They have really helped me build confidence. We have visited during weekdays and on weekends and it's always been a positive experience. We have not been there in the evening. I would definitely recommend Texas Legends.

I recently moved to Texas and wanted to get my License To Carry (LTC), so I did a brief search on…read morethe interwebz and lo and behold I found this place near my apartment, so I signed up! First let me say that I am new to this whole process and relatively new to firearms. I shot basic qualifications in the Air Force but nothing too crazy and I've only really shot with friends at a few ranges. So aside from wanting to get my LTC, I also wanted to learn "the right way" in general, and this company exceeded my expectations. First, the class is a one day thing, so you don't have to go back on any other days, it's a one-shot (see what I did there?) deal. I initially signed up for a class on a Friday, and it was cancelled due to extreme rain. However, they offered a $10 discount to reschedule, which was a nice gesture. So I rescheduled for a Sunday and had better luck. Also, they have classes on weekdays and weekends to fit your schedule, so that was also nice. The instructors, Phil and Cesare, are both excellent. They are both active duty police firearms instructors ans have over 20 years of teaching experienc. The class was fairly small, only 18 people. I've read of some other companies that have much larger classes, but I prefer smaller and it made for a friendly environment. The class consists of two portions, the range and the classroom. The range portion is actually a lot of fun and the instructors are 100% safety oriented and they explain everything in great detail as well as instruct you step by step on your qualification. You can also ask any and all questions and they will answer and help you. The classroom portion is extremely informative in many subjects. The instructors walk you through applicable state laws (there are many) and even though the new LTC state requirements are a condensed version of the requirements in previous years, they do a great job covering quite a bit of information. They do so with professionalism and a sense of humor, the kind you might expect from seasoned veterans! One more thing; aside from covering legal aspects of LTC, they teach you psychological aspects and you leave the class feeling informed and also a sense of responsibility. The classroom itself is nice and comfortable, and there are snacks, coffee, water, etc. You pay the initial portion (a deposit) online and the remaining portion at the class with cash, check, or card. They offer a discount for paying by cash or card, which I took advantage of. The class is $89, but I did end up getting $14 off because of the rain and because I paid cash. After the class is completed, they send step by step instructions via email on how to complete your LTC process with the state. Aside from that, Phil is available via cell phone for any questions. All in all a great experience, very professional, very safety-oriented, and most of all I will definitely be back for some of their other courses. Highly recommend.

He said he's been shooting for about 40 years, and his knowledge and expertise is impressive. He went over some basics, and then we did different shooting drills that were much more interesting than just target shooting in an indoor range. His demeanor with me was great and he didn't make me feel like any question was stupid. I highly recommend James and Sidearm training.

After patronizing Eagle Gun Range, I agree with the high rating. The attendant, an older gentleman with blue eyes and well kept hair and appearance answered all my questions politely. He informed me of their membership options without being pushy. They even let you shoot forced reset trigger/bump stock and shotguns in their indoor facility which I perceive to be a bit rare these days. I didn't have the full auto weapons but nice to know they allow it. I did enjoy my experience. Prices are probably in line with the market. Gun range shooting is never going to be the cheapest outing, but in the opinion of me and other citizens, it's a necessity to be able to practice our constitutional rights to shoot a gun. It had been probably a year or two since the last time I went shooting, but Eagle will be our place going forward. I recommend it highly.
