Phil is the man, I feel like this should be mandatory for Ccw to be honest. You go through so many simulations in so many different things that can happen so that you can prepare. Phil is efficient super good guy. Great at communicating nothing but great review for this gentleman. I'm definitely gonna be bringing my daughters to come and train so that they can prepare for their Ccw's. Thanks, Phil. read more

I had no idea this place was here until I walked down the street one day and decided to pop my head in to see what it was all about. They have huge screens displaying any number of options you want for your shooting experience, targets, moving targets, any number of different scenarios and scenes, all very interactive. They have basic dummy guns and then ones that have been modified with CO2 cartridges to simulate recoil. These are the way to go! They make for a much more fun and realistic experience. The gentleman helping us out was super nice and helpful, and pulled up a variety of awesome simulations to play, kept us entertained the whole time! This business is awesome in every way! Except...the price.. This would have been a 5 star experience for sure, and the only reason I am giving this establishment and experience 4 stars is the unexpectedly high cost. read more

Shore Shot Firearms Simulator - Tons of fun, big screens, lots of different scenarios! - Gun/Rifle Ranges Near Me - Oceanside, California

One of the coolest things I've ever done... An absolute necessity for anybody who wants to carry a weapon. I will go back again for more training. read more

Such a fun experience! I booked a private 1 hour session for my husbands birthday. We had 14 adults and 2 kids in our group. We had access to the whole facility. When I called to inquire, the staff was so friendly over the phone. When our group arrived, they were just as friendly. Phillip was our instructor and he kept the whole group laughing the whole time. The 1 hour was perfectly organized. Everyone had such a great time. I highly recommend visiting ShoreShot. My husband and I are planning to sign up for a membership. Thank you for the excellent service and fun experience! read more

My husband wanted to share his love of Short Shot with his friends and family by hosting his birthday there. Phillip and all of the staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. Everyone had an absolute blast. This is one of those places that words can not do it justice, you just have to experience it. read more

See all

This was really a great experience. We learned gun safety, handling and proper aiming. (For example, I found out that my dominant eye is my left and that I've been aiming incorrectly for years.) The simulations range from serious, to arcade style (Killing zombies). I went with my friend and we had shooting competitions hitting moving targets. The owner, Phil, was awesome. Some additional benefits was shooting without spending a ton of cash on ammo at a real gun range. Also, being able to move across the facility and aim at targets was a unique. Highly recommend this to anyone. read more

Can here this evening with my son, nephew and my sons BFF. We had a fabulous time. Extremely friendly staff! I would recommend this place. Can't wait to have an adult party here in the summer. read more

What a cool thing for the kiddos. Very helpful, educational, and friendly staff. Walked right in, and got right to demonstration and then play time. read more

Great date night. We will add this place to our regular rotation of outings. We would love to plan a party here too. My husband got some practice as he is more experienced than I am. I am fairly intimidated around weapons, but the staff helped me feel comfortable. We had a great time playing games as partners and competively. read more

Amazing. Very cool. What a fun way to train in a diverse and safe environment. This is perfect for the new shooter or the well-versed veteran. I can't wait to go again. read more

Stumbled in on accident and just spontaneously decided to go for it. It was pretty fun! Definitely something to add to the list of activities to keep things from getting stale during nights out. read more

Great place my son noticed while driving by in downtown Oceanside, so we dropped in to check it out. Turned out to be a lot of fun, with five huge projection screens and three activity areas (three of the screens are linked together to create one large activity area where two people can either compete or play co-op together in various scenarios.) The staff is very nice & helpful, and can recommend & customize scenarios depending on age level and/or skill. We enjoyed our first visit so much we came back for my son's birthday with his buddies. Everyone had a blast and since the price includes up to four players it was a pretty good deal. read more

Guys night out we wanted to go shooting but we also wanted to drink and be safe. This was perfect! The staff was super friendly and helpful for the newbies and experienced people in our group. We laughed quite a bit based on some of the scenes and scenarios. Worth an hour of your time, then go hang out in Oceanside bar scene. Made for great evening. read more

Going in, I knew the nature of the class, but once you have to make a decision to use lethal force, it's not that easy, even in a shooting simulator class. There are many scenarios, and it's unpredictable, which can help you in real life. I highly recommend this class. I will be back for additional training. read more

We really enjoyed our training with Mr Franklin Reid. He was knowledgeable, professional and friendly, and we learned a lot. We will definitely be back to use the facilities as they were a lot of fun. read more

This place is worth every penny. From the customer service, to the atmosphere, to the shooting simulator itself. Clay is smart, attentive and has a great personality. He made the experience even better. Dozens of games, and simulations. Never got bored. I Could spend the whole day here. I will definitely be coming back! read more

I took my daughters and wife to Shore Shot earlier today and Dale was awesome. The entire staff was very accommodating helpful insightful and eager to train and assist. My girls had a wonderful time and we will be back for sure! I would definitely recommend this place! read more

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Shore Shot for instruction. Three of us did a handgun class and it was so worth it. We spent the morning in the classroom, did some dry fire practice, used the simulator, and headed to the live range in the afternoon. All three of us are much more confident in our accuracy and handgun safety. If you feel like you aren't accurate with your handgun, you need to get instruction at this facility...trust me. The results are better than I expected. In fact, the results are surprising. Reid was a top notch instructor. read more

Took my son here for his birthday. It was better than I expected. I got him a gun that recoiled and he was stoked. We learned about handling guns and the customer service was awesome! read more

We had the best time. Family vacation. Ages ranged 13-80 years. Everyone loved it. Thank you Phillip and Travis! Looking forward to coming again. Highly recommended. read more

amazing owner. very friendly relaxed experience. he gave us a demo run and took the time to calmly explain everything to us. i'm looking to go into the military and law enforcement career and he gave me some insight on that too. good training for anyone experienced in firearms or any new people that want to get a feeling for what it's like, or if you just want to have a fun time. i will definitely be going back one day. read more

Awesome experience, staff is super friendly and awesome!!! Great for the family, highly recommend
