Instructor Toby and Lorenzo were amazing. Excellent speakers, excellent communicators. There was enough refreshments for everyone and it was a great welcoming encironment. The class did run the full 8 hours, it included alot of necessary and great information. The shooting range downstairs however is the reason i only left 4 stars. The shooting range does not have proper ventilation, it is 15 degrees hotter down there and it was full of smoke and difficult to breathe when doing the fire arms practice. They just had two large oscillating fans going. The instructors get 5 stars, the facility gets 3 stars.

When it comes to ranges and gun shops, Vantage Point stands out. The crew here is exceptional—highly trained and knowledgeable, but also relaxed, helpful, friendly, and funny. This combination creates a truly enjoyable and comfortable experience every time I visit. Beyond the incredible staff, they offer great value, with excellent prices on gear, ammo, and firearms. I particularly appreciate their honesty and straightforward approach when buying or trading in guns; they always offer me a fair deal. The facilities are also thoughtfully designed, from the ample parking to the easy to find restrooms and excellent range lighting. Their old-school, crank-style target system is simple, reliable, and easy to use, and they have an impressive variety of targets. With their chill and helpful range officers, I can't rave enough about this place. Vantage Point is my top recommendation for anyone's range and gun shop needs.

Couldn’t ask for a better experience! My son has wanted to try shooting for a while, and we decided to head over to Vantage Point today for his first outing for his birthday (and my Father’s Day). I’ve been to a number of ranges, but I’ve never visited one as friendly, supportive, and helpful as Vantage. We’ll definitely be back!

Signed up for a class to get back into firearms. Kurt worked with me, but including him, everyone was amazing, and you'll never meet a better group of people. I was instantly sold and signed up for more classes. The facilities are absolutely top shelf, their prices are competitive with anything online. They're overall incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and will help you into developing your marksman skills.

A group of myself and 6 others rolled through here and rented nearly everything they had to offer. The staff at Vantage Point Training Center were more than willing to help us out when it came to renting and recommending pieces for us to rent. That and they were extremely knowledgeable! Huge shoutout to this place, it was truly an amazing experience and we will without a doubt be going back!!

The people at Vantage Point are knowledgeable and friendly. I like the new extended hours. I prefer going earlier in the day, when it’s less crowded.
