Taser Training went great!
Vito K.

My company sent me here last week for taser training. I was highly impressed and appreciative of their professionalism during my class. I was instructed by their security director Kevin Randall. He was fantastic. Completely patient with me during our training. Much appreciated. I've been doing private security & executive protection for more than a decade now between back home in New York and here in Los Angeles and during that time I've done plenty of security training at a few different establishments. And this one is definitely on of the best facilities I've trained at. I will be back for further trainings as well as continue to recommend them.

Sneaking in a quick picture but I had to do it. This place is awesome.

Absolutely in great appreciate with how professional, courteous and thoughtful Luna Security T.A. is. It started off very well. I needed information about my guard card due to this being my first time obtaining one. I called around to a few places, found cheaper ones and even though there were some out there, I didn't want to risk my license and didn't want to put my career in the hands of just anyone. I called around a few places and eventually came across Luna. My first attempt, I actually spoke with Luna herself. She was VERY informative and sensitive with my questions. (I had a lot) She didn't care that I was going to shop around. It's like she knew I was doing so. She didn't try to lure me in like the others did or wasn't just passive because her job was answering calls all day, she actually helped a stranger. I was also helped by Kevin. Kevin was very informative with my questions as well, and even returned my call later on while he did some research just before I committed to my appointment. Kevin was also my instructor for the day. He was rather informative with every step I needed to take and I'm glad I made the choice to trust in Luna security. Pros! Luna Security informed me that their services were also ELECTRONIC. In my understanding, every other company I tried MAILED your information in. In Covid times, assume this could be a time situation. If you're in a time sensitive situation, save yourself a mess and come here. Environment! VERY clean. When I arrived I was greeted by Kevin and he exchanged more information while the floors were drying from being mopped. Everything was tidy and on the up and up. Refreshments were cold, restrooms were very clean and the place wasn't stuff with unnecessary Knickknacks and furniture. Straight to point. Cons! None whatsoever. Do yourself a favor and use them for all your needs! Thanks a lot guys!

Came to this place for a live scan and Luna was very professional and helpful as well. Was not awkward like other locations. They provided good information. The other gentlemen that ran my prints was easy to work with and very patient ( I had a hard time with a few fingerprints). Will definitely recommend and be back because of the good costume service

I've done a few classes with Dave now. And although I am not, and probably never will be, a "gun…read moreperson," I can say I do now feel more comfortable around them. I used to hate it when my husband would get his gun out to practice with his fake bullets or clean it or something, but now I'll do a couple of practices with him. The last class we had, the shooting workshop, was probably the best. It was a private range, and I shot an orange, which was so cool. I highly recommend this workshop. So now, while I wouldn't say I'd be "excited" about a day at the range, I'll at least go in somewhat knowing what I'm doing and have some fun, which is a huge difference from a few months ago, when I wouldn't even go at all. As an instructor and human, Dave is patient, kind, and funny. This kind of class can be intense- a firearms instructor needs to walk a fine line between being supportive and encouraging, but also making sure people know what they're doing so they don't hurt themselves. Dave is able to balance that well. He knows when to explain, when to show, and when to let the student try it out. He also seems to know when he can encourage a student a bit more to reach the next level of skill and when to back off. He definitely knows guns, but he knows people, too! Good combination in a firearms instructor.

Can't say enough good things about this. I took the pistol 101 class and David made the entire…read moreexperience easy, comfortable, and incredibly informative. No unnecessary ego or shaming people for not getting something immediately. It's a big deal and an important responsibly to know what you're doing, and David did a great job imparting that in a friendly way. In addition, some of us took an optional NRA online certification course ahead of it - David knew those of us who did and even catered some extra learning our way. To round things out, the one-on-one live fire training was great. Whether you're just curious to learn the skills or looking to buy a firearm, David has made himself available to help at every turn.

Daniel was a great instructor who made the class interesting and easy to follow. He gave excellent instruction and we felt safe when we went to the live shooting portion. He gave me a few tips and techniques that definitely helped as I continued to familiarize myself with my new pistols. When it was time to take my CCW course, I returned to Daniel and things went great as well. The class is twice the length, but he was still able to keep it entertaining and engaging. The only thing I'd change is when it comes to the mental health portion. He makes it known that he doesn't like the fact that he has to teach that portion because he's not a mental health expert. He's not a lawyer, but has no issue teaching the legal portions. He's not a health expert but brings someone in to discuss dressing wounds, tourniquets, etc. So it would be nice to have him embrace the importance of the mental health portion of the class. Outside of that, the class is great! If you're looking for a basic pistol course or getting your CCW, I highly recommend Daniel and First Step Shooting.

I recently completed the Pistol 101 course at Burro Canyon with Tom from L.A. Progressive Shooters,…read moreand it was a transformative experience. To be completely honest, I started this class with a significant amount of fear regarding firearms. However, the patient, safe, and professional manner in which we were taught immediately put my mind at ease. Tom does an incredible job of prioritizing safety above all else, ensuring that every step is understood before moving forward. His teaching partner Val added such a wonderful, welcoming touch to the class. Her presence and guidance made the experience feel even more approachable and inclusive. Because of their combined efforts, I walked away with so much more confidence than I ever thought possible. If you have been hesitant or nervous about taking that first step, I cannot recommend this course enough--you will be in great hands.

I wish I could go through more repetitions of some of parts of it, but even with four hours there was a lot of content to get through.
