I recently took the Handgun Tier 1 Ignite class at Scottsdale Gun Club with Matt and Dan, and I'm…read moretruly glad I did. A few months ago, my home was struck by a stray bullet from a random shooting that happened in front of my house. Since then, a couple of other situations have made me feel unsafe in my own home. That experience led me to consider purchasing a firearm for home protection. I had visited other gun shops before and even spent time at the range, intending to buy a gun -- but every time it came down to making the purchase, I felt unsure and honestly a little scared. The truth was, I simply didn't have enough knowledge or confidence to feel comfortable having a firearm in my house. That's exactly why I signed up for this class -- and it was absolutely the right decision. Matt and Dan were incredibly friendly, approachable, and fun to be around. They created an environment that felt welcoming and judgment-free, which was especially important for someone like me who had some anxiety going in. The classroom portion was extremely informative and covered so many foundational things I didn't fully understand before -- safety, handling, mindset, and practical knowledge that truly builds confidence. We ended the class by going to the range and practicing with a handgun, applying the skills we had just learned. Matt and Dan were with us the entire time -- closely supervising, ensuring safety, and offering hands-on guidance. I never felt alone or unsure. They were attentive and genuinely invested in making sure everyone felt comfortable and safe. While I still plan to visit the range a few more times to continue building confidence, I now feel significantly more prepared and educated than I did before taking this course. If you've ever felt hesitant, intimidated, or unsure about owning a firearm -- especially for home protection -- I would highly recommend this class. It gave me the knowledge and confidence I was missing, and I'm very grateful for the experience.

After consulting with my ChatGP "buddy\advisor" specific screws were crucial to successful install. I purchased them separately from Amazon. Steve didn't like the head tapering. He asked permission to use his own screws. Upon my affirmation, he proceeded to his belt sander to make custom length modifications on his own screws. He treated my Tracker like a surgeon with his scalpels being a host different punches, screwdrivers, and Allen wrenches. He was intriguing to watch! Not only did he calibrate my scope perfectly, I asked him if he could take a quick look at my 9mm semi with a green dot laser to check its alignment. "No problem". Done in a jiffy. I can't recommend Steve more highly!

From the moment we hopped on the ATVs to the full-on machine gun experience, it felt like we were dropped straight into a real-life video game--except way more fun and way louder. Rick made everything exciting, and safe. He knew his stuff, kept the energy high, and made sure we all felt like total pros out there (even if we definitely were not.) Between the rocky ride and the adrenaline rush of shooting, this was hands-down one of the coolest things we've ever done. If you're even thinking about booking--DO IT. 10/10 would absolutely go back and pretend we're in Call of Duty again.

He took the time to walk me step by step through the loading, unloading, and firing process of one of the smaller, faster projectile launchers, and made sure I felt completely comfortable before moving on. As the daughter of military members, I grew up surrounded by people with extensive firearms experience, which often makes me feel like a fish out of water with my own very limited background. My experience has only been three pistol classes with a .40, and my fear of firearms has always been difficult to share or explain. Despite that, I felt completely welcomed and respected at Byrna--never talked down to, never rushed, and all of my questions were answered with patience and clarity. The amount of care Samson put into making sure I understood everything stood out to me, and it's rare to find that level of customer service anywhere. If you're curious about non-lethal defense options, especially if you're new, nervous, or inexperienced, I cannot recommend this shop highly enough. Byrna Scottsdale--and Samson in particular--made the whole experience approachable, safe, and empowering.
