This was my first time shooting – everyone was so nice and encouraging! Our instructor John was really patient and took the time to show us how to shoot and safely load the gun. Everyone suggested the AR as it had a scope and interestingly was much easier to aim than the 9 mm. Obviously much louder and a little bit of recoil but I did quite a bit of damage to my targets torso and groin! The guys behind the rental counter were so nice and encouraged me to try the AR. It can get crowded quickly so I would recommend going early. I went on a Saturday around 10:15 and every stall was in use. When I left around 11:30 it was packed! They have a lot of different options and will walk you through each option.
