About BASE Firearms and Training

BASE Firearms and Training is a guided shooting range experience in Minden, NV, built around sessions with an instructor. Reviewers describe going out to the range with an instructor, and one says the range is set up on BLM land, which gave it an open, natural feel. One reviewer says the staff provided all the PPE and had water on hand while the group shot out in the desert.

Groups are a recurring theme. Several reviewers booked bachelor parties, and others describe birthday outings and family visits, some with first-time shooters. Reviewers mention gun packages, among them a full auto frenzy package. One reviewer mentions a .50 BMG and another shooting a Barrett, and reviewers describe a wide selection of guns to try. Two reviewers say it was easy to book a session or an appointment.

Training is the other half of the business. For CCW classes in Minden, NV, reviewers describe an initial CCW class and CCW renewal classes, and one calls a renewal class interesting without being dry. Others mention a gun 101 course and an introduction to gun safety, and one reviewer arranged private CCW training. One reviewer says FFL handgun transfers are handled there as well.

Several reviewers say they had never shot before and came away feeling confident handling firearms. For a day at a shooting range in Minden, reviewers describe a mix of range time, a selection of guns and instruction, from classes for CCW renewals to introductions for people new to shooting.

Took my wife to shoot who had never shot a gun before since we were on vacation close by. Ira was patient and helpful teaching my wife the basics which helped her have a great time. Ira was a fun instructor and his gun selection is rad. 10/10 would recommend

Took my first Nevada CCW class with Ira and renewed it 5 years later. Ira is an outstanding teacher. He has also handled a bunch of FFL handgun transfers for me, nicely discounted to $20 each (if you have taken your CCW class at Base). Thank you for your service.
