I just completed the Florida Concealed Carry Masterclass with James Dowler…read more James is a seasoned professional trainer, his live feed back after each set helped me close a 43 year gap in my pistol handling and shotting skills. By the final set I was able to put 25 of 30 shots in the strike zone. This was the best training money I've ever spent. I highly recommend any and all training class James provides.

We thoroughly enjoyed the course we took with Jim. It had been quite a while since my wife and I…read morehad gone shooting so I'm so glad we went with his company instead of a big classroom full of people at a local gun range. It ended up being just my wife and I so we had his full attention and were able to receive hands on training throughout the day and it was a great refresher course. As a flight instructor, I've taken a lot of training through the years and Jim was excellent at what he does so I highly recommend you spend a few bucks more for his training course as it is well worth it!

Have driven by here dozens of times and never stopped because it doesn't look like much from the…read moreoutside. Today I was in no big hurry to get home so I stopped... I walk in and the guy asked what I was looking for, I said I was just looking. He stuck his hand out to shake and I said "I done shaking hands for the rest of my life- Covid you know, don't be offended, nothing personal" He acted offended. Covid is STILL VERY REAL! And touching strangers unnecessarily IS STUPID!!! I was the only customer in here. I looked around the very tiny shop and saw a few Turkish shotguns, some cheap handguns and some OVERPRICED Glocks. I bought a Glock 19 Gen 5 for $500 at Britton's last year, and this guy was asking $679.00 !!! Most of his ammo was overpriced, same with mags. The guy (owner I'm guessing) stared at me the entire 5 minutes I was in the store and I left without buying anything. There are too many GOOD gun shops around Tampa Bay to waste time in a crappy place like this.

The owner is rude and disrespectful to me. Already bought one gun from him, coming in a month…read morelater to buy another. Even though there was just him and I in the store, he totally ignored me. I said hi when I came in and he said hi back. Waited while he tinkered behind the counter. I figured 15 minute wait was enough and I left. Read the other reviews, I am not the only one having a problem with this rude individual. Apparently the more money you're willing to spend with this jerk the more disdain he has for you. Well, let's make him real happy and not frequent his establishment at all! You want to buy guns and equipment I recommend Coles, Take Aim Guns and Safes, Shoot Straight, Castle Keep, Fire Arms Fred...ANYWHERE else is preferable to dealing with rude Paul at Arms for defense.
