*Rental firearms are available for every class we offer, but we do need to know ahead of time in order to have one ready for you. Please make sure to indicate your need to rent a firearm when you sign up for a class.

For shotgun rentals please call us to confirm they are available as we have a limited supply

Here is some basic guidance about ideal the shotgun setup for our classes. At a minimum, a shotgun should have:
– An extended magazine tube
– A side saddle
– A sling (1 or 2 point slings both work, it’s personal preference)
– Either ghost ring sights or a red dot optic. If going the red dot route then check out Trijicon, Aimpoint, Vortex and Holosun. Red dots will need to be properly mounted before attending class.

PLEASE NOTE: We DO NOT allow bullpup style shotguns such as the Kel-Tec KSG and others in our classes.
