Has the thought ever crossed your mind about buying a firearm? Have you read the news and have been…read moreappalled by the rise in crime here in California? Well, can buy the firearm (handgun, rifle, shotgun) but you have to keep it in your home. That's great if you unfortunately have a home invasion or something heinous like that happen to you (read up on "Castle Doctrine"). But what about you going to work, church, grocery store, park, an unfamiliar city? What are you going to do to protect yourself and the ones you love? I suggest getting a Carry Concealed Weapon (CCW) license. And where do you go for training? Gallardo Firearms Training. It's a HUGE decision and one not taken lightly but this is the place to go. Want further training later on? This again, is the place. Relaxed, chill, informative (both instructors are LEO's) no performance pressure environment. You will learn the laws and hear the teachings on gun safety. It will prepare you for carrying a gun in concealment. Just give it some thought. Oh, and when the dude from United States Concealed Carry Association (USCCA) comes and gives his spiel, sign up for the insurance. I went 2 years in misery thinking what would happen if I had to take a life and got arrested and prosecuted. This is a major blessing. Again, think about it.

Rankin Field has been my go‑to range for years, and coming back again reminded me why it's still…read moreone of the best spots in the area. The staff continues to be solid, professional, firm when they need to be, and helpful when you have questions. It's the kind of range where you can learn something every time you show up, whether it's from the crew or from the shooters around you. The outdoor setup is what makes this place special. Wide lanes, plenty of space, and a layout that gives you room to breathe. On busy weekends, it fills up fast, but there are also days where you practically have the whole range to yourself. That balance is rare. I did run into one issue with the self‑resetting steel targets. When you pull the rope, the bar that's supposed to drop the targets back down sometimes stays up, which means you end up shooting a target that never resets. Not a dealbreaker, but something worth noting. When I mentioned it to a staff member on my way out, they told me they're already working on changes and improvements, possibly adding new features as well. Good to hear they're staying on top of things. One thing I've always appreciated is the variety of classes they offer. You can sign up for everything from intro competition shooting to pistol optic fundamentals and, most importantly, CCW courses. It's a range that doesn't just give you a place to shoot, it gives you a place to grow. Rankin Field is still the outdoor range I recommend in the Central Valley. Good staff, good space, and a commitment to improving what they already have. I'm looking forward to seeing what updates they roll out next.

I did not call a private number someone gave me, i called the number posted on their website. IDK about anyone else but thats the last person id seek any type of firearms training from.

Malinda and Ben were very informative, patient and kind. They first walk you through all the safety guidelines and the basics of a gun, then you head out to the shooting range to practice. I was able to shoot different types of guns and see which one I was the most comfortable with. I definitely recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn how to handle a gun safely.

My experience with King Gun Center was fantastic, the guy i spoke to, to rent my guns out i don't remember his name, he had glasses maybe, but he was so nice, very informative and kind, he understood it was my first time holding a handgun let alone shooting it and helped me adjust around 4 times, that's patience right there. the value is honestly better than expected, it was 2x entry fees, 1x lane fee, 2 gun rentals and 100rnds of 9mm. for 123 dollars, that's not bad in any sense, for a good 2 hours of good shooting i'd say it's a pretty decent ask. the only downsides were the lanes are humid, you'll definitely break a couple sweats while shooting, and that the guns for rent definitely need a little juice as the slides are stubborn from being a little dry, other than the fact that i had only one malfunction i doubt it's a big issue. i had fun, learned a lot and had good convos about guns and everything that has to do with em. i hope i have an experience like that again.
