I have just had the "tacticool" day out at FFA. What a brilliant way to spend a days holiday. Chris our instructor was very good with us first timers and was spot on with how he explained the types of guns and the safe use of them. This was a surprise for my birthday and it is one of the best gifts I have had in a very long time. I have always wanted to have a go with real guns so this was the best way to start. You get your introduction to gun safety in an Easy to understand way then you get your demonstration on the guns then you get to fire them one at a time. Chris showed us how to load the magazines safely and how to check they were loaded properly so if you ever go elsewhere then at least you know the safe procedures. My son is already planning his visit again next October and I may just be coming along with him if we are back in Florida ( which is looking like a strong possibility). Thanks Chris we will hopefully see you next year.
I Just want to start off by saying a huge thank you to Jim and Craig for a fantastic day. My Wife and I attended the fire arm course today. I say course not gun range because there is so much more to this than a standard gun range. You know the one, where you receive a 30 second demonstration and are told to go to a lane and let loose. This is a professional and safe course which provides full training on all types of guns.The location of FFA is about 1 hr from I drive and your sat nav will lead you straight to their door. On arrival you will meet Jim and Craig who will ask you to fill out a few forms and then explain exactly what will happen throughout the day.After that you will then be taken to another area where you will be shown in great detail how to safely hold and operate each gun under the secure watch of either Jim or Craig.The whole time we were there we felt safe and in the hands of true experts who's number one priority was the safety of all of the people on site. I'm 6 foot 4 and my wife is 5 foot 2. She only agreed to do the course because she knew i really wanted to do it. All week she was terrified at the thought of shooting big guns such as AR15's, AK47's,12 gauge shot gun's and bolt action sniper rifles but she absolutely loved it!! She enjoyed it more than i did and it pains me to admit she was a better shot than me. There is a nice fan under the tents that help keep you cool in the hot Florida sun and cold drinks are provided. I would recommend you bring sun cream and bug spray.I have no doubt that when i return to Florida I will never visit a standard Gun range again. I will be booking an appointment with florida firearms adventures. Having said that don't take my word for it!! Get down there!! Men, women and children are all welcome.We had a brilliant day. Top marks to Jim and all the crew. See you next summer
This was a must do experience. Craig and Jim had all of us learning how to safely and efficiently fire all sorts of guns from AR15s to Glocks. I brought my husband and two boys 11 and 13 for this amazing day. Needless to say, it was the highlight of the trip! We were able to compete against each other with accuracy. It was amazing to see how well our children did - and you will do too! I am positive they could teach anyone how to handle a gun properly. This is a must do activity! Give it a try - I know you will be amazed. Again - we can't wait to visit again in 2015!

'I must shoot a gun once in my life', thats what I thought during our roadtrip through Florida. We are from Holland and fyi it is illegal to have any kind of gun or whatsoever unless you have permission from the government to shoot at a shooting range. Rules are very strict in that case.So up we went to Jim and Craig! They are so passioned when talking about guns. It is all about safety and having fun! And fun it was! We tried several kind of guns, try to hit the target. Well.... I did pretty good.... I think. The sniper gun at the end of the day was my absolute favorite! What a blast! Thanks Jim and Craig for the oportunity and the awesome day!
This place is excellent - the instructors are good and have a great attitude. If want to fire weapons when on holiday this is the place to go, it is a safe well run site with a good range of activities and weapons.
Awesome experience and nice introduction to automatic weapons for my son and I. One happy 12 year old!Jim and Craig thank you for your patience and the abundance of advice. I felt everyone had a fantastic day in our group and it was good to meet like minded individuals.Lunch provided was delicious, we will be back again when next near by.Graham
If like us you are tourists visiting Florida for Disney, Universal etc and want to experience a day of shooting then you must choose this Run by Jim and Craig, two hugely experienced professionals, the 'Tactical Experience' day provides an experience that you simply do not get anywhere else:- A wide range of guns to experience, allowing your children (and adults of course) to experience the 'Call of Duty' experience for real, shooting all different types of calibers at different types of targets, - Expert tuition, great facilities, food & refreshments, - and above all thorough safety and security at all times - Set outdoors in beautiful countryside, not trapped in a claustrophobic 'range'- Refreshingly a 60 minute drive out from the main Kissimmee area - super easy for the satnav to find, and a great opportunity to see some great parts of Florida beyond the theme parksAn unforgettable day for my 13 year old son and I - strongly recommended
Both of my girls had a great experience at this range. The intro to 9 different guns was amazing and safe. We shot hand guns (glock), semi automatics, and shot guns. The instructors gave a short history of each gun and were very professional. We had contests against the others in the group. we were shooting with people from Australia and England. A great 6 hour day. We are from Massachusetts, a very liberal state. We learned a lot about how to handle firearms safely. An important experience for teenage kids.
Went here on 8th Oct 2013.....although we had difficulty finding the venue, a couple of trips up and down G Smith Rd, had us finding the tiny sign.... Better signage please fellas!!!!However, upon arrival were met by Craig, nice friendly chap, who informed us we were the only 3 booked in for that day..... Had great fun, both Craig and Bob, friendly, helpful and extremely good at what they do....even helped me with a grip issue I have, overall, very very impressed......just love the AR15.......Well worth the $125pp!!!!
