What Our Customers Are Saying

This was a great experience. Staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. There were a range of scenarios to "train" that meets everyone's needs/wants. The instructors customized the time for what we were looking for.
Nikki, from Ohio
I have now completed 2 of the 4 training sessions that I purchased at a discount. I find this training incredibly helpful. The simulators and scenarios are so real that it's hard to explain.

After only 2 classes I have gained valuable knowledge and feel more confident in all situations. If you are interested in learning how to best protect yourself and your family, I highly recommend this training.

This is a new contemporary method of training ( vs a traditional range) that is a great value and investment. The instructors are very knowledgeable which adds to the overall learning experience.

First session at Engage Virtual Range. I have my CCW and was looking for something to help with my confidence and skill. This is the perfect place. The instructors are wonderful to work with and extremely knowledgeable. The session was really tailored to me; what I wanted to get out of the class.
