    Beware spending your hard earned money here on range passes. Received a 5-visit range pass as a Christmas gift. Now, I'm a father of 2 that works a ton and finally excited about a day alone to hit the range in July of the same year... until I look at the pass and it expired on March 31. A 3 month pass! Is this a joke? My wife bought it for me, so essentially I'm out $65 or whatever it costs for absolutely nothing in return. I've never, ever seen a 3 month expiration on a range pass. I'd understand 1 year, but I never imagined 3 months. Called the store and nothing they can do despite being friendly. They provided the their home office / Corporate number and some kid tells me they're not going to do anything (repeatedly) after I've asked for a manager and that's policy. I left info for the manager to call me back since its Saturday today. I'll update if I get any satisfaction, but from what I've been told so far it doesn't look good. I view this as a petty money grab offering gift passes that you have to visit 5x in 3 months to get full value (or in my case, any value whatsoever).

    A "misunderstanding" of the situation if what they called it.

    I have been to this gun range once. And I will NEVER go back. All of the front associates were wonderful, very helpful and polite. My issues with this range started as soon as we stepped through that door. Our first "RSO" was rude and yelling at my husband, who is a military veteran, and knows how to properly maintain a gun. Then, to make this experience so much better, there was a shift change; and the 2nd "RSO" grabbed my husband's fully loaded gun while it was in his hand. Again, it was fully loaded. After emailing with the company, they blatantly lied about how it happened. And said the 2nd "RSO" did nothing of the sort. There's been incidents here before, and I'd honestly be surprised if it didn't happen again.

    Nice gun range with a knowledgeable staff on hand if you are having any difficulty with your firearms. They have everything on hand if you don't have your own: earplugs, safety glasses, and targets. Paper targets are 4 for $5.00. A lane to shoot is $20.00 for an hour. The only thing keeping me from giving them 5 stars is that their prices on guns are pretty high. You can find a better deal at Cabela's or Bass Pro on guns. For example, they currently have a Sig Sauer P365 9mm on sale for $599.00 and I bought the exact same gun at Cabela's earlier in the year for $499.00. So obviously, it was a $100.00 cheaper at Cabela's and yes, that was brand new and not used. Other than that, I like Shoot Point Blank and it will be my go to shooting range for now.

    You owe me $75.00 !!!!

    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.

    Do not buy Groupon for this place. They only accept groupon M-F 9-5pm which is not explained. Appt…read more are 24hour in advance even through there website offers walk-ins. They are unwilling to have a conversation with you about it and are very short when you try to talk to them. They just pawn you off back to Groupon. Customer Service at First Shot Dyer, sucks.

I came in expecting to be bored sitting on my phone the entire course but this was not the case. Adam is a great instructor, very informative, detailed and fun. The class was very immersive. Great class for beginner, he goes through all details of scenarios when to and when not to exercise your right to defend yourself with deadly force. He will answer all questions and no judgements are made if you are a complete beginner to firearms. you will qualify on your shooting accuracy during the first day, the range is not far from the class at all. You will qualify at the end of the first day class, everyone will pass with the information taught. I have taken a 16 course 5 years ago and all they showed was boring NRA videos and not much information on when to and when to not use your firearm. Adam spoke the entire course with power slide, it was not boring and you will learn life saving information and also information to prevent putting yourself into trouble with the law. You will Learn basic firearm function, grip, fundamental, maintenance, amongst many other important factors of carrying a firearm. You will Learn the law and updated current laws with conceal carry in IL and where you can carry outside of IL. it was very affordable and worth every penny Spent. Thanks Adam.

    At first I was apprehensive about going to this class because I didn't want to sit through 16 hours…read moreof class room, I already have over 30 years of law enforcement experience , retired in May 2023 even though I have IRROCC however it's only good for 1 year on the other hand conceal carry is good for 5 years and I frankly thought our yearly going to our gun range to qualify to carry was enough however I quickly found out that the academy taught us officers nothing compared to Blackhawk Tactical class.. I learned so much from Adam the instructor that I encourage everyone to take this 16 hours class. You think you know everything about guns wait until you take this 16 hours class and find out you don't know s.,..t . Adam is true to form really charismatic,smart and really smart at this,he is courteous, respectful and very helpful especially at the gun range he took everyone individually at the gun range to make sure we passed the shooting range. Adam is very knowledgeable about all kinds of guns you can think of,he can break any gun down and tell you the different parts of the gun, he's funny, encourage everyone to participate in the class,I carry a Glock 43 I found out really quick that not only I didn't know the parts but I have been been cleaning it the wrong way which Adam explained it all. By the second day I was looking forward to the class and see wished there was a 3rd day the little $79 we paid was worth every penny. I will most certainly recommend Blackhawk Tactical,I am including the awesome positive vibes of the class.
