Great teaching and ethical standards at CCW. Mr. Dickerson is a hands-on instructor with real-life experience and expertise in firearms. I highly recommend the New Jersey Firearms Academy to anyone interested in firearm training. read more

A group of 6 of us came here after purchasing the 2-Hour Intro to Firearms course on Groupon/Livingsocial ($59 deal) with a reservation at 3:30pm. FACILITY (CEDAR GROVE LOCATION) - The building was right next to a police academy and definitely not as commercialized as the other shooting range I've been to. There were no individual booths and they just had tables set up in the middle of the range. The open space also meant a lot of echoing and louder POPs! They gave everyone foam ear plugs (which was sufficient for me) and only had a few earmuffs. There was a total of 19 of us and we got to try 4 different handguns. Over the course of 2 hours we had to get in line and I got to shoot 6 times (30 rounds). Also got to reload twice. INSTRUCTORS - Very friendly staff who gave good feedbacks when I asked for it :) They went over all the important safety issues in the beginning but didn't really cover aiming/focusing (instead we got a little card with picture illustrations). It would help A LOT for those first-timers if the instructors had gone into detail a little more before we start shooting. *You also don't get your own individual target at this place so it gets hard to tell where you were hitting when you're sharing with 5 other people. I wish the experience was more instructional but overall we had a great time! read more

See all

Wide variety of classes and events. Definitely try several. Tons of options for youth and adults alike.

This was my second time back at Nj firearms academy. I was amazed with how well organized the classroom was and the instructor was knowledgeable, explained gun safety and how to handle firearms and made sure everyone understood. After the intro class we were given protective wear and tried three different guns. I was able to bring my own gun to practice at no extra charge. Another instructor, Debbie, was very helpful. After an hour practice, I was able to shoot with much better precision. Nj firearms academy, you got a loyal customer. read more

They use Shooting range in Bayonne as their location, open for public only Friday, Saturday & Sunday It's indoor and small place. People are friendly. I just don't like the air circulation. I prefer outdoor range with fresh air. They have variety of weapon for shooting, that all matters. read more

A group of friends and I tried the $65 2-hour basic handgun class/range time. Most classes are held on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. We went on a Friday afternoon when the traffic is heaviest leaving NYC and we missed our 3PM appointment; we actually got to the range at 5PM but luckily we were still accommodated! It was a quick 20 minute tutorial of basic handgun rules and etiquette and then we were quickly brought into the range. We alternated between 4 different ports, each holding a different firearm with 5-7 rounds each time. It was a lot of fun and a very pleasant experience! I highly recommend this for first-timers! Note: You must fill out a "training application" on their main website prior to arriving and it does not work on a mobile device (fill it out on a desktop!) read more

N J Firearms Academy - 2 hour basic handgun - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Lateif Dickerson and his instructors at NJ Firearms Academy were simply phenomenal and provided an amazing learning experience. Having recently competed the Level I Basic Pistol and Safety class, I have to say that the entire module laser-focused on safety and making beginners feel comfortable around and shooting pistols. I would recommend this to anyone looking for elemental instruction, and my family will be signing up soon for further instruction. read more

To say I am appalled by their customer service may be understatement. Much like Samantha C's response, I bought two Living Social Vouchers for a three hour intro to hand gun class. My brother and I have literally been trying to schedule this for months to no avail. There is no concrete way to sign up for the class and a confirmation email. The NJ Firearms Academy does not respond to voice mails. I will be contacting Living Social shortly and posting this review on other websites to share their appalling customer service to even GET to a class. I hope to have an easier time attempting to refund my money through Living Social and/or the Academy. I feel as though we gave the NJ Firearms Academy a fair shot to get back to us: we had been trying to contact them through emails, applying through their website and phone calls to no avail. read more

My husband took my stepson to the intro to handguns course (with 1hr fire range time) for his 12th birthday (12 is the minimum age required to participate). They had a great time. The intro course was very informative to them and allowed the to learn the hand gun basics. Ammo and use of the handguns were included in the price and total time spend at the Bayonne location was approximately 2 hours. A certificate that the course was completed by both of them is also being mailed to our house which they are also pretty excited about. All in all it was money well spent and they had a great time. My brother collects guns and often goes shooting but has never taken a course and after hearing about it from us he is looking forward to signing up for it himself. The only complaints that my husband had was that they wouldn't allow pictures for safety reasons which he understood but was sad he couldn't capture the memory. The second complaint was that because the course/time on the range is done with a group he did not get as much time actually shooting the guns as he would have liked. Overall however it was great experience and he would go back. read more

For my birthday, my parents gave me a full-day basic pistol course voucher from Zozi ($150 for 8hrs). Awesome, right? I know. There's a slight catch. You'll have to brave a trip into Jersey. Also, you'll have to find the range itself, which is located in the back of an American Legion bar or something. Very odd. But hey, what better place to protect your second amendment rights than the kitchen of a dirty bar in Jersey? Anyway, upon finding it, my girl and I checked in with our instructors and settled down for class. We sat and watched a few powerpoint presentations on guns, took some notes on safety, passed around some bullets, etc. The instructors were actually quite nice, even a little geeky, in an endearing boyscout kind of way. Then, they let us (ahem, I mean trained us to) shoot a variety of center-fire and rim-fire, semi-automatic pistols and single-action and double-action revolvers. After lunch at some greasy Chinese place nearby, we sat and took some more notes. We even watched some YouTube videos on how NOT to handle a gun. PSA: Please treat them like they're loaded all the time. Then we filled out our packets, received our certificates, and retreated to the safety of the strictest gun laws in America... New York City. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone with an itchy trigger finger. Or, if you're interested in getting your concealed carry permit, this place is fully NRA-accredited. They will even fingerprint you for a Florida permit, which allows you to concealed carry in 35 other states though reciprocity. God Bless America. - A Newly-Gun-Toting Liberal read more

At first thought, it seemed like a sketchy scenario. There is no sign for the NJFA. Absolutely none. I only found the entrance when I asked a groundskeeper for directions. He pointed inside the bar and told me to go down the stairs. So I did, after a bit of reluctance. But once I was downstairs I was greeted warmly by the staff. During the Into to Pistol Shooting class we learned the inner workings of several handguns, from revolvers to semi-automatics. Then we held these guns and practiced how to load, unload, and place them in safety positions. After a simple safety lesson, we were off to the range. The range itself is almost 100 feet of dirt, wood, sawdust, and long, dangling wires holding paper targets. We started off with the revolvers then moved on to the semi-automatics. Both experiences were great, but I really enjoyed the semi-automatic pistols. The instructors are very well educated on the subject and very patient with you. Their #1 priority was safety and the entire time I felt very secure. Despite their rundown surroundings, the staff was pleasant and very informative. Their class variety is extensive, ranging from pistols to shotguns to rifles. Their schedules are also very flexible. I was able to rebook my class easily. My only negative comment is that they are not very responsive to emails. CALL THEM INSTEAD! I would happily come back for another lesson. read more

Horrible experience. This was supposed to be a birthday present for my younger brother. We signed up weeks before and made an appointment for a private session for 3 people. This was paid for, and we submitted the forms online. We were all very excited, and drove 45 minutes to Jersey City and when we get to the front door there is a sign that says "sorry we're closed today". What was supposed to be a birthday present turned out to be a complete embarrassment for us. We could not understand how we had a scheduled private session, yet the place was closed, and NO ONE had the decency to email us all call us. They had 3 email address, 3 phone number, an appointment, and we got nothing but a note on the door. I wish i would have taken a picture just to show here. We called the number on the written out piece of paper, and we let them know this not professional at all. They apologized and said they would "We SHOULD have gotten an email and they would give a complimentary session". We sucked it up, and were told to call back on Monday. It has been a whole week, and we have emailed and called MULTIPLE times, requesting to reschedule or talk to someone about the purchase we made, and NO ONE GETS BACK TO US. The least they could do is refund our money. I just submitted a Dispute with my credit card company to try to recoup our money. I am not sure who is in charge, or who dropped the ball, but this has been a truly horrible experience. read more

I knew this place via Groupon, and as you may expected, I gladly purchased two Groupon since the price is much cheaper than the other range went before. But what annoying is, this vendor never response. I filled in their online applications as instructed, and no one get back, even not a single system auto generated emails, and I did fill for at least three damn times! OK, then I decided to try something more straight forward, to make a call to them. And nice trick! They all went to voice mail each time, and as you may guessed, no one get back to my voice mail. And I made this call in three different weeks during weekday and weekend, no one gives an answer or reply. so I really doubt are you guys out of business? or are you plan to running out of business? If so, at least retrieve your Groupon posting page and stop fraud other ppls around. don't mind about my refund, I will go through with Groupon. You guys never picked up phone or contact your customers anyway, so I won't expect you will show up for a refund. read more

I came here awhile back and never got around to writing a review. The place looks a little run down but the experience is amazing! After a few Q&A's and instructions,we were able to go shooting and it was so much fun. I got a Groupon at the time but Groupon or not, if you haven't been shooting before I highly recommend this place! read more

N J Firearms Academy - Bang bang - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Another DEEPLY DISSATISFIED Customer from GROUPON Traveled an hour each way from Manhattan, only to get A) no response via phone, B) no answer via email, C) no information whatsoever on their website. I went to TWO separate locations and couldn't find anyone. I had an appointment--I paid in full. My question to Lateif and the rest of the crew--how do you operate a business that rips people off so badly? How will you fix this?? RESPONSE TO LATEIF: I actually DID speak with someone the day before my appointment! The call was at 5:54 PM for 4 minutes (check your logs), I had to literally read out my email to the guy because he couldn't be bothered to look up my info himself. I confirmed over the phone AFTER I filled out the forms and the roster AND GOT CONFIRMATION. This is UNPROFESSIONAL, PLAIN AND SIMPLE!!! read more

I am a retired Police Lieutenant with 30 years on the job. When I retired, it was still necessary for me to keep up with all the Firearms Laws of NY, NYC & NJ. This was because I live and carry in NYC and I must comply with National (HR 218) Retired Police regulations. I have been with NJFA for about as long as I could remember. Scale by position; Chief -Range Officers- Members- Visitors, and classes are top-notch. I personaly would give it 5 stars. 11 ADAM 12. read more

Bought a 2 hour introduction to firearms from Groupon. Location in N. Bergen was a little odd, as it is through a bar/banquet room and hard to locate, but was given good directions from the academy. Class was about 6 people; got roughly 1 hour of instruction and 1 hour of range time. Great experience. Safety was paramount, and instructor was very knowledgeable. Having grown up with firearms (rifle/shotgun not handgun) I decided to take the 8 hour NRA Handgun course. I was the only one who showed up, and instructor still worked with me one-on-one for 8 hours. Amazing experience, got to meet a few employees and regulars. Awesome facility and reasonably priced! read more

I registered for 6 people to come to this place to try out for a gun shooting experience and we all arrived at 10am to a shop that looks closed up. There's a gun store right next to the firearms school and the owner states the gun range is in a completely different area. I was never notified of this gun range area, I checked all my emails and all I had are the confirmation emails of my payments to this store. What a scam and horrible experience. Not really what I expected and definitley demanding a full refund if the owner ever responds to the voice mails or emails. I do not recommend this place, take your money elsewhere. read more

N J Firearms Academy - Empty looking store - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

Loved this place! I found out about New Jersey Firearm Academy from a Groupon deal, and what a great deal it was. I purchased an 8 hour NRA Basic Pistol Certification course for only US$159.00, while in other places it will run you for US$289.00. The staff was super friendly, patient and extremely knowledgeable in firearm handling and safety. Lateif and Trevor (Father and Son) make a great team. The range is indoor for Handguns, which is great when weather doesn't cooperate. It's located in North Bergen, at Schuetzen Park (inside the Senator's Lounge), this range has 8 ports which is more than enough to accommodate. They encourage you to shoot from a wide variety of handguns (from Single Action revolvers to DA's to Pistols on a variety of calibers) you're encourage to bring your own as well, which I did, and boy did I have fun, I wished it never ended! Kudos! To Lateif and Trevor for creating and maintaining this range and their excellent firearm class!! iw ill most definitely come back. read more

You can go to any gun range just to learn how to fire a gun. NJ Firearms is the place to go if you want to become great at shooting. Instructors are all expert shooters. They will show you how to accurately hit the target. They will teach you the correct posture, technique, and mental & physical conditioning. Highly Recommended! read more

Found NJ Firearms through Amazon Local, probably one of my favorite purchases from there ever! It's located in Jersey, but the jitney at Gate 51at Port Authority takes you pretty much right there, and it's only $3 one-way. It comes every 2-5 minutes. I love the instructors there. Our chief instructor, Trevor, was very detailed, and very patient with his step-by-step instructions for us. He accommodated everybody in class, and all of us had a few minutes of time to be coached by him individually while we were taught to shoot our targets. I had an anticipation issue (whereby I would move the gun a little before firing, because I was anticipating the jerk back of the gun after firing), and he made sure I succeeded in following through the shot before moving on. May I reiterate, Trevor is VERY patient, and with almost a decade of teaching experience, he can answer pretty much any question you have, and you can be assured that you are in good hands. His assistant, Angel, was also amazing and was very patient as well. I feel a lot more confident now. Any fear and doubts I had about holding a pistol are gone. I highly recommend NJ Firearms to anyone who wants to learn how to shoot a handgun! read more

Before taking this class I knew nothing about firearms. My co-workers told me of the skill involved and positive side of learning more about them. I found the instructors at the NJ Firearms Academy were extremely found the instructors at the NJ Firearms Academy were extremely patient, well-versed, and professional. In fact, the classes were so interesting that I signed up for 3 additional classes. I learned so much. I cannot recommend this course enough, especially for beginners. KEB read more

Honestly one of the most unprofessional experiences I've ever had at any company. I signed up for the Living Social deal for the handgun course. I drove out of manhattan, took me 1.5 hours due to traffic. I get there and the location wasn't the same as they had online. I called ahead 3 times throughout the week, registered online, everything they asked me to do online and over the phone. Nobody was there. They finally answered my 6th call and told me it was at a different place and to reschedule it. I then had to sit in traffic almost 3 hours to get back into manhattan. Literally wasted my entire Sunday trying to get there, for nothing, and then getting back into the city. AWFUL communication, AWFUL professionalism. I'll absolutely ask for a refund back from Living social. DON'T GO THERE. read more

I bought 2 Groupons for my gf and I for her bday gift. I did their online form and was told they'd get back to me. NOPE! Never happened. So I sent emails and called and never heard a thing. so I've tried this periodically figuring maybe they were busy. Five months later I'm demanding a refund from Groupon. I would give them 0 stars if I could. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY! read more

I have found the company to be exceptionally responsive. I've never had an email go unanswered or a call not returned. The fact that the company's offices and range are in two locations is kind of a fact of zoning--I tried first to take pistol classes in a Manhattan range, which is impossible. I feel lucky as a city dweller that there is any training within reach of public transportation from Manhattan. It would be nice if the two facilities could be together, but I understand it isn't possible through no fault of their own. As a woman, I felt that the instruction was particularly helpful. While I went first to learn to shoot, I have gained a ton of knowledge just on being street smart and what to do to avoid trouble, or failing that, how to get out of it fast. I have endless "stupid" questions, and I always get eye-opening answers given with patience and respect. This is not about a Groupon offer, but about joining a community of people dedicated to skill, ethics and safety. I'm also a mom and enrolled my kids to get safety certified. I was unprepared for the amount of one-on-one attention they received. My very girly-girl daughter went reluctantly, but had such a good time that returning to gun camp is on the top of her to do list. My kids love going to the range and love the challenge. My son particularly benefits from having to use control and focus--normally he is bouncing off the walls. The skills he is learning on the range help him in life. Both my kids are acquiring more than just shooting skills. They are learning about self control, motivation, hard work, focus, passion and confidence. I know it is a business, but I walk out of this place every time knowing the instructors care about teaching and about the quality of the experience. To have the opportunity to learn from a State Champion is an extra special bonus. read more

I took a Level 2 firearms safety course and I must admit I was very disappointed. The course was set up in two portions: classroom and range. The classroom portion of the class was great and taught by the business owner Lateif Dickerson. It was thorough and complete as i expected it would be. When it came to the range time Lateif completely dropped the ball. Rather then actually instruct the L2 participants he had 2-3 other poeple monitoring the range while he taught the L1 intro courses to new people. Not once did Lateif provide physical instruction on the range. Actually no one provided instruction short of yelling "cease fire" or "commence fire". In the end my analysis is that Lateif Dickerson is more concerned with selling people on his basic intro course as suppose to following through on the people who paid up to $800 for his L2 course. He was very quick to brag of his expertise, but when it came time to provide it on the range he was a no show. There was no syllabus or timeline on how long the course was to be nor what was to be covered. He showed videos of shooting steal targets and moving through courses. But when it came down to it we shot at paper targets. Often times, there wasnt enough targets to go around. There wasn't enough ammunition to be used. Things were often terribly unorganized and no one really seemed to care. Even his own staff at the range spoke of how embarassed they were. DO YOURSELVES A FAVOR AND FIND ANOTHER OPTION of which there are plenty. read more

We sent to this range yesterday and we weren't happy with the lack of organization, the entire class consisted of 12 people total with two instructors and 3 guns. it sucked because you literally had to watch the other people shoot and jump up to the front if you wanted to get a chance to shoot. The instruction section was being held with no weapon to actually show anyone anything, just pictures until there was one requested by the instructor. I've been to a range where I learned how to fire a 22 rifle and they gave us rifles to learn the parts while in the instruction class not during the time where we were supposed to shoot and we were each given our own rounds to use until we didn't have any more. I specifically went to this range because I wanted to learn how to use a gun since I've already used a rifle. The guns we were using weren't well maintained as 3/3 kept jamming thus us wasting lots of time while they unjammed the guns. So all in all it was a waste of time for me. read more

The instructors are very knowledgeable and certified by the NRA. They take the time to make you sure understand the material. And are very patient. Very good with nervous folks too. The range leaves a lot to be desired. Needs to be cleaner and more modern. And the school in Jersey City--the parking is horrendous. Other than those minor drawbacks, the instruction is excellent and the prices are reasonable. read more

This place is awesome! They had a wide variety of firearms and really knew their stuff. Lateif is the man when it come to firearm knowledge. Had loads of fun! read more

My family (3 adult sons, husband and I) attended the Basic Pistol Class 2 weeks ago. We had a great time, and found the class to be well organized, and the instructors very knowledgeable, patient and pleasant. Registering for the class was easy, and on the several occasions I contacted them my call was answered immediately and professionally. We would definitely recommend the class, and NJ Firearms Academy! read more

Attended one of their intro classes today and was very pleased. Had a better experience than I expected, the entire staff was very friendly and incredibly knowledgable. They make you feel comfortable enough to ask any questions you have and are very capable of explaining all types of related concepts. The intro class teaches you everything you need to know to shoot safely and then they let you shoot different handguns so you can experience the feeling of each one. Definitely leaves you wanting a second experience so I will be calling them to set up my next experience. Highly recommend them. read more

This isn't a review of the range or instructors, because I never met any of them. This is a review of their "Employment opportunities" and "Mr. Ramos". I answered an add on Indeed for "Pritchard Security" (which seems not to exist in NJ). I received a phone call from "Mr. Ramos" that if I could handle making $17-$29 per hour for armed guard services he would like to schedule me for an interview. "Mr. Ramos" kept speaking over me when I asked questions about the work and the name of the company he worked for. He finally admitted he didn't represent a security company that could hire me (and had no idea the bogus add was listed under Pritchard Security), he represents NJ Firearms Academy that will train me to work for a security company. When I asked if they would issue a letter of need after my training he essentially hung up on me. read more

NJ Firearms Academy is probably the most disorganized and unhelpful organization I have ever dealt with. A friend and I were supposed to take a shotgun course at the Academy, the school canceled the course twice. After many attempts to reschedule with them (during which they would ignore our emails and phone calls) we managed to get them to schedule us for December 3rd. When we show up at the Academy and its closed we call them. They inform us that they have canceled the class and its going to take place on December 4th. The problem is that they never emails or contacted us about the cancellation. I had to travel for 45min at 8 in the morning to find that out. The worst service ever. DO NOT GO!!! read more

I will deal with just the facts. Below is a recount of my experience(s) with NJ Firearms Academy, in the most objective tone I can produce. 4/30/16 - I paid for and booked an intro to hangfun course for myself and my husband to attend on 4/30/16 at 11am. 4/29/16, 2:15pm - I received a VM from Debbie at NJ Firearms Academy ("NJFA") stating that the Bayonne range is closed indefinitely and they will have to reschedule. 5/4/16, 8:22am - I call NJFA to reschedule my cancelled class and am told to call back after 9:30am, when Debbie gets in, as she does the scheduling. 5/5/16, 11:19am - I call NJFA to reschedule my cancelled class and am told by Debbie that the range is closed indefinitely still. (date unknown) - I call NJFA to reschedule my cancelled class and am told by Debbie that she will call me when they have dates available. 5/27/16, 11:42am (Friday) - Debbie leaves me a VM stating that there is available for that same weekend on Sunday/Monday, but I must call before 5pm. Otherwise, I should call around 6/2/15 for the next weekend's schedule. 6/1/16, 10:05am - I call Debbie for the upcoming weekend's schedule, per her VM to me on 5/27/16. Debbie informs me that they will not have classes that weekend and I should call back the next week for the future schedule. I inform her that she indicated in her VM to me that I should call back this week for a class schedule. She acknowledges that she said this but informs me I should call back next week for a future schedule. 6/1/16, 2:04pm - I call NJFA to request a refund, but there is no answer. 6/1/16, 2:08pm - I send an email to NJFA at chief@njfirearms.com, attaching my initial booking receipt, and request a refund since I have been unable to reschedule a time for my class. 6/3/16, 1:33pm - I call and speak with Debbie regarding my refund. She asked me 3 times how I purchased the course. I answered "through the website." Debbie told me I would have to email the website directly (chief@njfirearms.com) for a refund request. I informed her I did this already. She took my name and said she would give it to her manager, Latief, on Monday, 6/6/16, to request a refund. 6/10/16, 11:05am - I leave a VM for NJFA, again requesting my refund, or a time frame of when I can expect my refund. 6/10/16, 3:40pm - Debbie calls me to reschedule my class. I indicate that I have previously (including earlier that same morning) left multiple VMs, sent an email, and spoken with her about getting a refund. She informed me that she "handles the phone calls and the schedule" and does not handle refunds or emails. She said that she was writing a "note in bold" to give to Latief in an hour and a half when he returned so that a refund would be issued. 6/12/16 - No response received from NJ Firearms Academy; no refund received; filed a transaction dispute with my credit card company. read more

I honestly don't even know where to begin. My boyfriend and I discovered this place a little over a year ago on Meetup.com, and we really can't say enough good things about this place. We came that day for a heavily discounted Intro to Pistol class which was beyond riveting! We were both gun novices at the time. Cut to today, and we are NRA certified in Level 2 Pistol, Level 1 Shotgun/Rifle, in the middle of a brilliant, intensive knife self-defense course, are about to begin a Archery training as well as competitive tactical shooting. We've also taken "Personal Safety in the Home," which is all about the legalities of self protection with firearms. Jerry, Trevor and Lateif are all PROS, and we've learned SO much from them! Lateif Dickerson, the founder, is one of the top Bullseye shooters in the country and trains everyone from PD to special ops to FEDS to CIA, you name it...we call him Jason Bourne, because he really is haha! We will never stop going here!! read more

I went to NJ Firearms Academy for the first time for an Intro Shotgun class.The instructors were very patient, knowledgeable, and super fun to hang out with. I definitely walked away with some solid techniques on how to properly handle a firearm and I'm definitely coming back for other classes. P.S. If you have some down time, ask Latief to play Scrabble! read more

Although there is no signage whatsoever for this place, it ended up being a great time. After buying the groupon for an hour at the range, our instructor gave us a brief overview of how to handle the gun properly and gun safety, and then we were in the shooting range practicing on targets with many different types of guns. I certainly will be back! read more

I recently took the Basic Pistol course and it was well worth it. Trevor was my instructor and he was very knowledgeable and informative. He took the time to explain everything and was patient with the many questions I had. He truly wants you to learn and leave feeling comfortable with handling different pistols. Regarding the location, although on the website it says Jersey City, you could be going to the North Bergen location, which is very hard to find since there is no signage. Just be sure to get detailed directions ahead of time. And bring snacks with you since you will be there the full 8 hours! read more
