Wow, didn't know I would be attacked for writing an honest review. I would like to start off by…read moresaying if I'm lying we can clear this all up by you posting the conversation we had when I first came in the store. I literally showed you on my phone then you walked out with it and went to your computer. I said something along the lines of " I seen it for 853 so I wanted to come here and buy it." If you didn't want to sell it for that price why didn't you say something before we both wasted our time with the paperwork and background check? I'll say it again, if you think I'm lying please send the footage to me or post it. Also we seen you change the price on the computer when discussing it at your desk before you started to get upset about it. You're so flamboyant you typed in the price change with one finger hard as hell lifting your hand about 6 inches above the keyboard with each press of the numbers. This is unbelievable, also I feel like you tried your hardest to call me everything besides the hard R in the messages. I'm not calling you racist but just wow man, it sure looks like it. I didn't call you out your name not one time. I also have a class a license so I don't smoke or use any narcotics. But you seen that when we wasted our time doing the paperwork for my background check. The store we went to right after we left didn't say anything about smelling like marijuana either. Pretty sure they would have made me leave like you were supposed to since I apparently did. That just goes to show that you're lying because you're mad. This is unacceptable. And upon us leaving his car was having trouble so he parked at the bank next door and I believe he had it towed later that day. You can also go in there and fact check that as well. I will be buying another firearm soon just to see if they'll let me at another one in the area. If not I guess we'll have another problem at hand. Also please look up the word integrity and remember it's pretty important when owning and running a business. But since yours is closing I guess it doesn't matter. Edit: he has edited his response over 100 times(I'm not exaggerating). I was also threatened that if I didn't take my review down he would send a letter to the atf regarding the us smelling like marijuana. There was no smell at all so this is a lie. We were in the store for maybe 30 or 40 minutes and he admitted he didn't smell it. (Cause there was no smell once again). But stated he was send an OFFICIAL letter to the atf based on what a CUSTOMER said. If this isn't blackmail or some for of intimidation I don't know what else to call it. This man is insane and I don't believe he should be able to operate a gun store. Imagine if he was a cop, He would be the biggest liability to the entire department! He also said I was being suspicious and watched us on camera. So that would mean he watched us stand in front of the car under the hood at the bank next door (off his property) for 10 minutes? Not only did he see that, he must of watched him walk into the bank to before we left right? Well he went in to let them know his car was having trouble and asked if they wouldn't have it towed because we were coming back to get it whether it was being towed out or repaired if it was a quick fix. With that being said, why send out a 2 county wide report lying about me being a suspicious person evading cameras and saying we smelled like marijuana in the store? Why call me out my name then expect me to delete the review with a sincere apology? Why change the price in front of us on your computer before telling me to "look again"? I guess I'll edit and clarify your lies everytime you add to this.

The level of service I received was outstanding. The staff listened to every concern I had about…read morethe product. When the owner said he will take care of me he followed through and took care of me. He explained to me the process of owning the firearm and offered to me the available classes his business offers. He is a straight up front person and explains everything very well. Thank you Dorchester for helping me with this purchase!

After 38 years away from home, I finally returned to Michigan…read more Between an Army career, a Department of War career, and then trying life in Florida--which just was not for me--I finally decided it was time to come home. My wife and I have both been longtime concealed carry permit holders in Colorado, Utah, and Florida. Somewhere along the way, we also became NRA instructors, ran a tactical training company, and even earned titles as competitive Cowboy Action shooters. So, needless to say, we have been around the block a time or two when it comes to concealed carry, firearms training, and instruction from both sides of the classroom. With that said, let me be clear: you will not be disappointed with the concealed carry class at Peacemakers. Brad is a straight shooter, and I can honestly say I have never experienced a concealed carry class like this one--in a very good way. Most concealed carry classes are built almost entirely around the brand-new shooter. They often move at a painfully slow pace: "This is a gun. This is the front of the gun. This is the rear of the gun." Brad does not waste mindless hours on unnecessary minutiae. He teaches what matters, keeps the class moving, and focuses on the information students actually need. Another thing I noticed right away was the complete lack of bravado. In the firearms world, many instructors teach to tell you how great they are, how much they know, and how they basically invented gunpowder. That is not what you get here. Brad teaches with humility. He is confident, knowledgeable, and direct, yet there is no ego in the room. That alone is a rare find in the gun world. Too many instructors use their students as a stage to show off. Brad does not do that. His focus is on teaching, not on performing. I also found Peacemakers' approach to the concealed carry class refreshing and, honestly, a bit novel. Brad's teaching style kept the class grounded and left little room for the usual "know-it-all" behavior that sometimes shows up in firearms courses. He controlled the room well, kept the material on point, and ensured the focus stayed where it belonged. The range portion, in my opinion, was brilliant. The use of 50 rounds was efficient, precise, and well thought out. It moved like a military operation, which I greatly appreciated. I have seen too many classes take a simple 30-round qualification and drag it out until it feels like hot pokers in the eyes. That was not the case here. All in all, this is a good class, taught the right way by the right kind of instructor. If you need to get your concealed carry permit, Peacemakers is the place. It is worth the drive, and you will not be disappointed. Great job, Peacemakers. Keep Up the Fire.

literally horrible. Byron is an asshole unfortunately. I had him as my instructor and he was so…read morerude and he'd make numerous stops. It was so upsetting hearing my classmates and friends having fun with their instructors meanwhile mine was telling me I "lack common sense and critical thinking". I remember he got mad at my partner for calling him because she was confused as to why he was forty minutes late. Right when he'd leave the car (no I have no clue why he's leaving) my partner would always turn to me and tell me they're sorry because of how he's treating me. When I told my classmates I was with him they genuinely looked at me with terror. When I told my family some of them said he was the one who tested them and he was incredibly rude. He's super tone deaf and I haven't driven since I got my permit because I feel like a danger to the road even though I know I didn't do that bad.

If your child is close to turning 18..beware. When you buy the full package you are supposed to get…read moresegment 1, segment 2, state test, state road test, and over the road driving lessons. My daughter finished segment 1, all of her in class sessions, and received 3 over the road driving lessons. Her instructor never practiced with her all the things on the state road test like they were supposed to. When it came time to start segment 2 the school postponed her her until she turned 18 and then stated that she is now considered an adult and is not entitled to segment 2. But they refused to return her money for the portion she did not receive. When she took her state road test she failed because her over the road instructor did not teach her what she needed to know for her test like she was supposed to. If I could give them no stars I would.
