Jen and Tim have been excellent instructors taking time to answer questions and thoroughly educate. I have been through a couple of the courses and they never disappoint. I highly recommend taking ALL of the classes offered through downtown tactical and if you are first time gun owner please for the love of God and your fellow citizens GO TRAIN!!!!!IF YOU HAVE NEVER HANDLED A FIREARM GO TRAIN!!If youre an arrogant macho man GO TRAIN!!Tim was excellent at the live fire training.Every minute of training and every dollar spent is worth it!If you choose to carry a FIREARM for self defense PLEASE GO TRAIN! It could be the difference between life of freedom, life in jail or death! GO TRAIN!! looks like we will all need it now days sooner than later.

Guy seemed more interested in telling me about how “BA” he is and about all the important people he gets paid to protect than he was in showing us equipment or discussing a good option for a conceal carry pistol. He did take the time to criticize my carry pistol so that was nice.

I took the Conceal Carry class at Downtown Tactical. Graham Hunt was the instructor. The class was well presented, and informative. Questions were encouraged and welcomed and answered. I would and will definitely recommend Downtown Tactical and this conceal carry class.On a personal level, I have had a fear of guns. I was in no way made to feel stupid or that my fear is invalid. I was given practical help, knowledge and tools to understand gun safety, how my gun works and options for what to do in a bad situation.Many classes are offered and I plan to take another class for women later this year.

I enjoyed coming in here to shop. Good selection/decent prices. The guy behind the counter was good too!

This month I took a concealed carrier course at this location. The instructor, Micah Mayes, was Awesome! He gave much more practical and helpful information than in the previous class I had taken a few years ago in another state. Micah was Very Patient with our whole class which was all female. He took the time to explain the exact details of gun handling and answered our many questions. On site at the range he went the extra mile for each of us to know exactly what we were doing.This is an excellent course for any adult. The other instructors and employees there made us feel welcome & engaged.Thank you Micah and all the DT team!

My brother and I went in. Guy behind the counter must have been having a bad day we got terrible service(He was rude and arrogant). Limited to no product. Overpriced grips and sight . Kept bragging about how they train CIA, Rangers and other Special Forces offered no actual proof of these claims neither does their website. Honestly youd be better off going to Cherokee or Eagle Armory for guns and gun accessories and I would personally find an actual large known company to train with before I spent any money at this location. Will definitely not be going back or recommending to anyone.

I was treated with the utmost respect and kindness. The owner is extremely intelligent & takes pride in making sure you have the correct protection for your needs!

I let Graham and mica take care of all my firearms needs I just Got another carry gun Sig p365 and Graham made an awesome holster for it. You need a holster he makes one of the best! I will only go to these guys. They truly take care of me like family!! Best Firearms store around by far!

I just took the Tactical Rifle class and I have to say that I am impressed. I have trained with a few different companies and, in my experience, I have yet to find a company that offers a more applicable and comprehensive yet challenging course.Well worth the time and money! Only regret not taking it sooner.

Special thanks to Tim at Downtown Tactical. He was very friendly and above all helpful! I’d highly recommend anyone interested in buying a firearm or any accessories to go check them out!

Great place for any firearms person, from the personal protection to professional thay do it all. Thay carry some gear in stock but seems mostly for demo and sizing, theyll order any thing thay have in the store in your size. Thay also do gunsmithing and training classes at different levels. And great, trust worthy crue!

Three things I look for in an instructor:Skills. Ethics. And transparency.I found all three here. I have taken many courses and cannot recommend Graham and Micah highly enough.Come ready to learn. You will.

Knowledgeable staff. They offer tactical pistol and rifle training. I have trained with 2 other company’s and recently down town tactical as my 3rd. They are just as, “if not more” knowledgeable about gun fighting and self defense as any of the big name training company’s that I have trained with. Micha,Gram and Tim are very nice very cool dudes in the shop. I have bought multiple products here and if they did not have what I needed they never hesitated to order it in for me. 5⭐️’s from me.

Just made another purchase From the Great Bunch and couldn’t be happier with my purchase.... Graham is making custom holster and the one I purchased for my new glock is bar none better than any other holster that I own... Thanks guys

These guys went out of their way to get me what I needed before I went out of town.They are very knowledgeable on tactical gun fighting and the laws you need to know before you carry.

Picked up my new AR today, very impressed with the staff. We will be back!

Great place to buy a firearm, the staff are helpful and really seem do know a lot about firearms. Would recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a firearm. Will be back to buy another firearm in the future.

Its nice to find a gun shop with smiling faces behind the counter. Always super friendly and knowledgeable.Excellent customer service!

Incredible service. Staff has a wide variety of knowledge and the owner is incredibly approachable. Super clean shops with everything I needed.Much needed option for Springfield! Finally able to deal with an honest tactical shop with respectable staff who respects you back!

Graham, the owner/operator is easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. No one should be intimidated to ask questions with his laid back approach. I have been in several times for specialized gear purchases and he is always pleasant.

When I signed up for the CCW class, I had let mine expire about 6 years ago. I was expecting to sit through a class for about 6 hrs and a couple hours at the range. Well, its Tuesday....three days after the class and I am just now starting to remember SOME of the almost 9......yes nine hours of intensive instruction and information.The instructor (Micah) was extremely knowledgeable on the law and the need to AVOID trouble. Very extensive gun safety portion. Really showed me how lacking I am, not only how to hold a weapon, but how to even think about the weapon. I would suggest that anyone, the class had several beginners, take this particular class. I have been around firearms and have had several training classes over the years. Boy was I ever taught wrong. I came away with, what I feel for the first time, real confidence.I signed up for the 2 day advanced pistol training course. Honestly......Im really terrified of my poor habits. But now, I have some tools to Train on. Thanks to Micah and Graham for your patience and knowledge.

Great place to shop. Owner was very professional and helpful with finding me the right weapon for my needs. Will definitely buy from him again.

Recently went through the Tactical Pistol course offered by Downtown Tactical. It was EPIC!!! That course was unlike any other that I have ever taken. The instruction really opened by eyes to the mindset of how to defend myself and my family. This is not your everyday plinking class that you find all over the place. Instructors took the time to break down the basic skills for each drill and then they really helped to drive the skills home with practical application. I am excited to expand my skills with their Tactical Rifle courses, Emergency Medical courses and I am even looking forward to taking my wife and daughter through the CCW course. They are the best in the region hands down!

Friendly staff, and they make really good holsters!

This guy knows his stuff. Nice guy and a good variety of tactical weapons and gear. Nice to have a place like this open here in Springfield

Very welcoming if you’re a female. Wonderful owner who treats you with respect. Glad to have more options in town.

Their optics are ridiculously overpriced, look online before buying. Opticsplanet, Botach and Brownells are all good places to look. 1 star added for customer service.

Owner worked with me on exactly what I needed and shopping was easy with h fast delivery.

Its called Downtown Tactical but it is not located downtown.

Great people! 👍
