It was a bit difficult getting ahold of them to get signed up, but RJ did return my call and we had a long conversation about the classes and a bunch of other interesting stuff. The class itself was at a location that requires an off-road vehicle to gain access, but it's a well-run facility. I was mentally prepared for an advanced civilian self-defense-type class, but the instructors took it beyond that. Two instructors and four persons in the class ... nice ratio! Looser environment than Front Sight used to be, and with a lot more movement when engaging targets. In addition to moving, got to practice strong- and support-side actions, with some competitions toward the end. Busy, productive, informative, and productive two days. read more

Finished the all ladies course today and left feeling confident in my firearm handling. Sam and George were knowledgeable, personable and made sure to hammer home the importance of knowing how to operate your weapon safely without it feeling like a burden. The class covers all the bases and more if you have questions. I can say that all of my concerns were alleviated and I left excited to continue to hone my new skills. Will definitely be back for more advanced classes read more

Great private site with attentive and experienced instructors. The range allows for variety of options for pistols, rifles and shotguns. Be back for a team building workshop read more

I have just finished my first course with Top-gun. I will return for advanced classes. Top Gun instructors are also top professionals. They are knowledgeable, professional, methodical, and do and teach way more than what I initially expected. I left this weekends training with a deep feeling of appreciation for what these instructors do and what the instructors did for me. The instructors patiently observed, instructed, corrected, and were most patient and encouraged me every step of the way. The most important part of this training was the incredible safety procedures they put in place on the range. An key part of the safety and training was the individual instruction I had... there was always a watchful eye on what I was doing. The safety procedures are drilled into you deeply so that once you leave the class you know how to safely practice and increase your level of safety while at the same time increasing your level of protection. I highly recommend Top-gun for any fire arms training that you need. These folks are the best. read more

I've been shooting pistols for over 40 years, but I still got my money's worth out of the Basic Pistolcraft course. I'll admit that the classroom instruction didn't offer any new information to me, BUT when we went out to the range, the coaches were able to help me see and correct some inefficient habits I'd developed, as well as teach me a few tips that significantly improved my accuracy and speed. I intend to enroll in the follow-up course in a few months after I practice and solidify what I learned in the basic range session. read more

That was the first time for my wife, she was very nervous, anyways the instructors were so helpful and courteous. They treated the students in a great extent of professional manner. Previously, she was scared of exploding sounds (even from a balloon), but now she hardly wait for another shoot. Looking forward for next lessons, planning to have my daughter joins the classes. Top Gun Training Center deserves 5 stars and our strong recommendation. read more

I took the shotgun series of classes here. I found it to be a great and memorable experience. The instructors were excellent with extensive experience such as being retired SWAT. The range isn't too big, but it's perfect for the class sizes. It may be a good idea to check the maps first. To get there I had to drive pass rocky roads that may or may not contain a river depending on season. Then I drove on dirt roads to finally reach the destination. If you miss the sign then you will end up at lytle creek firing range. It is also a good idea to bring lots of water, sunscreen, and hat especially during the summer months as it gets really hot. You also shoot a lot so you need to be well rested. It isn't easy lugging a heavy shotgun the whole day. Shotgun 210 beginner class was great. wasn't expecting to learn as much as I did for an intro class. You will be learning tactical shooting methods right away. The classroom time is concise. It is focused on defensive shotgun use. Time isn't wasted watching dozens of funny gun fail videos for instance. I shot maybe 120 birdshot and handfuls of buck and slug. Shotgun 220 was more fun than 210. You learn new skills like new shooting positions, use of cover, shooting on the move, and shooting multiple targets. There are also more steel targets to shoot at. In conclusion I highly recommend these classes if you want to learn about defensive shotgun shooting. For the money, it is well worth it. read more

Just completed my 2-days of Top Guns Ladies Firearm training with Fred, Dan and Ralph. The instructors were amazing, knowledgeable, and professional. Tons of information that is so relevant to daily life situations. Safety being paramount, basics constantly stressed. Thank you guys for a meaningful useful class. I would highly recommend Top Gun to everyone. read more

The past weekend, I took my family and friends to Top Gun Training Centre and I must say we had a blast. I was a bit nervous about it since family has seen a gun but not fire one before. Some of my friends have shot for recreation purposes but never have the proper training and the gun handle skills. After day one of training with Ron; my wife, daughter, and sister shot better than the men at the class. Ron - took his time and endured his patience to nurture my family to provide the necessary skills to survive a gun fight. Thanks Ron..... The crew at Top Gun is top notch in the industry and they have right attitude to train beginners that want to learn the basic of gun handling skills and I am certain that the old timers can definitely learn something new here too. I highly recommend this class (Pistol 101) to anyone who wants to learn the proper technics to handle a hand gun ....... Thanks Ron......The family had a great time..... read more

You guys rock! Thank you Sam and Ralph for an amazing class today. We all enjoyed it, so much information. Highly recommend for the beginner to advanced. Ralph your son, Joe was a lot of help. read more

I have attended 3 classes at Top Gun ( Pistolcraft 110, 120 and 130 ) and highly recommend that you chose them if you are looking to get some top notch training from some very kowledgable instructors (Fred, Steve, Seth and Ralph) . Don't think that these classes are basic...they are not. They build upon the basics (Hey, the top ranked shooter are the one's who have mastered the basics) and take your shooting and tactical awareness to a different level. The scenarios are challenging and fun. You'll shoot a lot! The instructors pick up on the littlest details and will help you fix those issues and not just have you cruise through the class making the mistakes over and over. This isn't a school only interested in the numbers. They want to know that when you leave you have gotten the most out of you training. I'm a former LEO and will say that these guys took my training to a significantly new level. read more

I went in to this training barely knowing how to load ammunition into magazines but left feeling confident and ready to use my Glock. The trainers were very knowledgable and funny. They had us complete many different exercises to help us become comfortable and confident when handling a pistol. I definitely recommend anyone who has no experience with guns to take this training. I took the training which was for both men and women combined. The all women training wasn't until the end of July so didn't want to wait. I'm glad I didn't wait because I really enjoyed my Saturday there. I'm even thinking of signing up for the next level of training. read more

Had a great time training with these guys today. Learned a ton of stuff. They take the time to teach you the correct shooting technics and are extremely knowledgable. They own the range so you have a private instructor. Would recommend Top Gun to everyone. read more

My wife and I took an entry level pistol class at Top Gun. It was a great experience. The course taught us how to actually use and be comfortable with a gun. The three instuctors, Ron, Sam and Mike were great guys and very knowlegeable. They offered a lot of information about the laws pertaining to gun use. This was a real shooting class. At the end of the day we had each shot 250 rounds of ammo. My wife came away from the class with an enthusiasm for shooting. We can't wait to take our next class from Top Gun. We highly reccomend Top Gun. read more

Our instructors Steve, George, Ralph, Seth and Kacey are very experienced and knowledgeable. Seth the instructor for the classroom portion, was extremely detailed and thorough. we never felt rushed or hurried. all the instructors focused on safety.. safety.. safety .. they made us feel comfortable, relaxed, thoroughly secure when firing our firearms. Lastly, they all had over 100 years of experience with firearms.I highly recommend Top Gun training... the first step in my adventure to becoming competent and proficient with a firearm.. Before Top Gun training class I was afraid of my firearm... they helped me feel comfortable with it. in the furture I will continue taking more courses from them.. I am looking forward to all they can teach me! read more

Aziz was great! He's depth of hunting knowledge was really helpful to make sense of the theories, as he shared plenty of examples. He's a great instructor, and I'd highly recommend you take his course. read more

The training I received from Top Gun has changed my perception of what being prepared with regards to carrying a weapon means. Safety for one's self and for others around you. From loading a weapon to low level light firearms training. I consider myself to have become much more prepared. I will continue with other courses offer in order to better myself with accuracy and proficiency. read more

These guys do a great job at training. I have taken there pistol and shotgun coarse and have loved what they have done. If you are beginner that never has touched a gun before to an advanced shooter, they have something to offer for you. You will have fun, learn a lot, and meet some more people just like you. read more

I went to Top Gun yesterday with my son in law and we each took our new Glocks. Wow these gentlemen trained us and gave us so much confident. You could see everyone from the 22 year old Kate, to the 78 year old Mike grow throughout the day in confidence with their firearms. The tactical class is a magnificent learning experience. The 16 people in our class ranged from first day shooters to lifetime shooters. I can't wait till my nest class. Thank you Top Gun. I feel confident in protecting my home and family. You accomplished just what I had hoped for. read more

I had signed up for the all female class. It was nice to join a class knowing other woman are like me, there to learn and know how to use the firearm the correct and safe way. Before I start my review about the class, I want to help future yelpers how to get to the Training Centre. I am a visual person and like to give directions using landmarks. You will turn right once you see the sign like the images from the other yelpers had posted and go across the dry or wet river bed. There are LOTS of rocks. I highly recommend driving your SUV or truck if you own one. You can make it through with a sedan if you know how to go around it slowly. I was told there are people who was able to make it with their Prius and mini copper. Once you pass that river bed on the left side there is a dirt road with a 15mph sign. Take that road for about one mile and a half and the training center is on the left side. The directions was not clear and I had ended up in the middle of the dry creek. I was VERY lucky to had been able to get out. One of the ladies I met going back was stuck in the rocks and dirt. She was not able to get out. I took her to the training Centre and she had called AAA auto to come assisted her. One of the instructor (Ralf) was kind to drive her back and stayed with her till AAA arrived. I was 30mins late due to being lost after crossing the creek, but arrived just in time to catch up with everyone else. Fred was leading the class with two other instructors assisting him. We all had a handout and he reviewed it in detail with us. The 25 page handout were PowerPoint thumbnail with a place on the right side to take notes if needed. We had breaks in between to make sure we all stayed hydrated and bathroom breaks (they call it the "blue lagoon"). In detail Fred and the other instructors went through the proper way of checking the firearm, making sure it's clear and not loaded. We learned to load the magnum manually and with the quick loader. All of the instructors were patient. One of the ladies was left handed and it was hard for her to lock at the safe mode. Fred and Ralf were looking for ways to make it work for her. This class is great for any first time females. I highly recommend it!!!! They do have different level classes on their website for men and women. read more

I just took the Ladies Class. Never shot a gun and pretty much afraid of guns, so I thought the best way to get past that was to take a lesson. I will admit I had high anxiety going into the class. The class and all the instructors were great! They went at our pace in teaching the class, making sure we all felt comfortable before we went to the next step. My biggest fear was taking that first shot as I didn't know what too expect. I was afraid when it came down to it I wouldn't be able to shoot it. But NO, the knowledge & structure of the class built up my confidence and when it came down to it, I didn't even think about it. I was so focused on listening to the commands, I did it! I left there feeling much more comfortable with guns and looking forward to my next class at Top Gun. read more

I just finished an all day Ladies Handgun Course. I was very impressed with the knowledge and teaching techniques of the instructors, Seth and Ralph. This is a great course for women who have never handled a gun and also for more experienced gun owners. Their professionalism and regard for safety was impressive. I would highly recommend this course. read more

This training is professional but valuable for every level of shooter from beginner to seasoned veteran. The Instructors focus on safety but also provide valuable feedback and individual tips on how to improve your shooting groups, response times, and discipline in a very constructive way that provides for fast and immediate improvement. There were 4 Instructors for 12 students today in my class which provided a safe environment and plenty of individual attention to often overlooked flaws like stance, grip position, sighting specifics, and other areas where minor adjustment or additional focus will improve your overall performance and provide enhanced capabilities. I personally experienced significant improvement directly related to their instruction and observations on areas I need to focus on. It was well worth the money!!! I highly recommend! read more
