It's a great deal if you are a frequent shooter. It's cool in the summertime and warm in the winter. The member only shoots are fun and is nice to be around like- minded people. We bring our Scout troop to shoot here at least twice a year, though im sure they'd like to come more often. Doug is a great teacher and treats the kids with respect.

After 9 straight days of snow, it was time to do something other clean the driveway. For the last…read morefew months I have been trying to experience this. I saw a brochure at the local gun show and the description seemed rather appealing. After digging out the driveway we headed in that direction. Roads were sketchy at best and our appointment time was quickly closing. After reviewing the online schedule multiple times I knew this place stayed booked and I didn't want to infringe on someone else's time. So I reached out to J.P. To let him know we were going to be late. We were relieved and assured to know that our tardiness wasn't going to hinder the experience. We met with J.P., he gave us the tour of the place and then we got down to the brass tacks of why we came. Great place! Not knowing what to expect, I kept an open mind as to the experience J.P. Was very informative and made it appealing to absorb the detailed information not only related to the experience but also responsible second amendment responsibilities. J.P. Provided the training and offered additional training options for future endeavors. This is probably the ultimate gaming experience with real life adaptations. You are provided with an environment and an experience of threats that in real life we want to avoid. However unless you are a hermit or blind to the obvious, the risk is real every day that you are in a public arena. With this training you Know how to act and what to do when application of deadly force is required. When the train evolution is completed, you can target shoot and have some light hearted fun and or compete with friend and family popping balloons or wiping out zombies. You can host adult parties here you can also host child parties here with age restrictions. You can use Co2 recoil simulated equipment to include AR15's additional items are also available to compliment the experience.

Even though the class covers most of the basics as mandated by the state I still learned a lot of information despite the fact that ive been firing firearms for 15 years. After seeing the level of instruction at Creek Side I will be sending my wife here to learn about firearms as I dont have the patience or attributes to teach her as well as Creek Side could. A+ in my book.

Was referred to MMI for a rifle transfer by a friend of mine who no longer does FFL transfers. Very…read morereasonably priced and friendly, knowledgeable employees. Transfer was smooth and fair. Was unsure of the parking situation as the store shares an ally with a bank, but not a problem. Would suggest owner put a sign out letting customers (especially new customers) know where it's okay to park, other than the ally or the bank parking lot, when it's busy. Overall, I recommend and will be back for sure for future business. I recommend MMI and will be back for future business.

There are no known incidents of a gun store customer yelling at anyone. Come on Karen, get a life. As for Brian, the owner, being rude, that is a perception you may get if you are calling trying to get ammo or primers every day during a shortage. He is a knowledgeable straightforward business person dealing with very controversial products. Every day someone is trying to take away our rights to own firearms and his living. Trying to keep guns and ammo in stock now is a never ending battle. I highly recommend you stop by the store and talk to them in person if you are looking for a firearm. Make your own conclusions as we did.
