I…read moretook Nick's 16-hour CCW course over two days, and he did an excellent job keeping the class engaging and the material interesting throughout. What stood out most was Nick's ability to teach to a wide range of experience levels. He addressed topics in depth for students with more firearms experience, while also clearly distilling the most important points, especially around safety, for those who were newer or less experienced. He was approachable, easy to ask questions, and created a learning environment that was both serious and comfortable. By the end of the course, I felt like Nick had not only covered the required material thoroughly, but also set us up for success beyond the class itself. I would absolutely recommend Nick and NSP Firearms to anyone looking for professional, practical, and thoughtful firearms instruction.

I finally decided it was time to stop being nervous and actually go to the range. After reading the reviews, I decided to check this place out, and I'm really glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the staff was friendly, welcoming, and very helpful. I told them it was my first time at the range, and they took the time to explain everything, answer my questions, and help me get set up. That made a huge difference because walking into a range as a newbie can feel a little intimidating. Once I got to my lane, I was only there for about 30 minutes, but I enjoyed every minute of it. My confidence definitely grew, and I left feeling way more comfortable than when I walked in. Overall, great first experience. Friendly staff, helpful guidance, and a welcoming environment for beginners. I'm looking forward to coming back for more practice -- and this time, I promise I won't wait another two years.

We all know, purchases / transfers in California are difficult and wrought with bureaucracy & nonsense. This shop, makes it simple and easy for you to get it done. In addition, they have a very nice indoor range with a VERY wide multitude of rental firearms. Aside from the good customer service & cool indoor range, they had an incredibly wide variety of stock for sale. I noticed they had VERY fair prices, like some firearms were easily $100-125 less a piece than the FUDD gun shops here in (510) Alameda County. I would say the top highlight of this gun shop was the lack of FUDD. I experienced & saw / heard zero FUDD nonsense. Just straight up good, solid, friendly customer service & plenty of great products to choose from. It's also noteworthy that they had a really good inventory of ammo for reasonable pricing. I'll definitely be spending some more money here. Keep it up guys!!
