TLDR: you will NOT regret your experience here…read more I doubt I will ever have a better experience with a gun dealer and firearms trainer. I've always been uncomfortable walking into gun stores or shooting ranges, and that was 100% not the case here. The nicest, most knowledgeable, thorough and accommodating folks I have ever encountered. My husband and I are in the market for a hunting rifle and a handgun, and we're a little lost on where to start and what to get and have a pretty tight budget. I searched guns on Apple Maps, and bam, Grey Wolf comes up 10 minutes from home. I check out their website and am amazed to find a 'Try Before You Buy' class where for $25 you can shoot five of their guns with five rounds in each. They had same day openings (on a Saturday) and you can book online on their website. They take Apple Pay in person too, not something you see in most small, home run businesses. We were able to pick five rifles and five handguns, and let me tell you, they have an EXTENSIVE collection to pick from, from antique WWII to the latest and greatest. We had an absolute blast learning about all the different weapons and figuring out what would work best for both of us. The range isn't huge, but for gun safety and training courses or testing out specific weapons, it was more than adequate. My husband had so much fun he wants to go back to try some of their other pieces. We'll definitely be buying the guns we decide upon from them; not just because we enjoy supporting local, small (and veteran owned) businesses, but because Dawn and Jeff were so amazing to learn from and interact with. Also good to note, they never schedule more than one group at a time, so it will just be you and yours learning, practicing, etc. (other than their larger conceal carry courses.)

I can't say enough about Wes Reese and the North Carolina Concealed Carry certification course…read moreoffered through Reese Firearms. Being both a veteran and someone that had previously gone through concealed carry certification in another state, you can imagine how excited I was NOT to sit through more fairly basic-level training. I couldn't have been more wrong. Wes is one of the most knowledgeable individuals you will ever meet when it comes to firearms and the relevant NC laws. Additionally, he makes some otherwise dry material interesting and funny, and is very engaging with the class. The videos Wes used to supplement the material were mostly funny, but were very relevant to the subject matter and the humor just made the material all the more memorable. Pizza lunch was delivered by Pizza Hut at 11:15 and Wes just kept rolling through the material while we ate. Shortly after lunch, a guest speaker from US Defense Shield spoke to the class about carrying legal protection in the event you ever find yourself in a self-defense situation, firearm or not, and how you plan to defend yourself criminally and civilly after the fact (because you will have to regardless of what happened, and how). Once again, very thought provoking, and not something most folks consider. The classroom portion is located in Kernersville and the range is in Thomasville, approximately 25-30 minutes away with light traffic. I didn't realize this until I received the confirmation e-mail after I registered, but it wasn't a big deal for me. If that matters to you, don't forget to plan ahead. Range qualification was quick and efficient and the class was dismissed from the range while anyone that wanted to stick around to shoot Wes's arsenal was welcomed. Either way, you leave the range that day with your certificate in hand, ready to join the world as the next concealed carriers (as soon as your local Sheriff approves your application). If you live in or anywhere remotely near the Triad Area, and are considering concealed carry training, there's just no better option than Wes Reese and Reese Firearms.
