Jeromy and Nick know their stuff and are both highly trained are excellent and passing that great knowledge to their students. Can't recommend them enough. Class act, excellent training and an awesome simulator!!!

Highly recommend Simshot’s Fundamentals Mastery Course. I had no idea so much went into shooting… From stance, to grip, to trigger control, to precision, & multi-target movement—we spent 8 hours in the freezing cold learning, getting confident with our pistols, and having a blast with such a great group. Jeromy & Nick are incredible instructors and gave us so much value, individualized the training with 1-1 attention, and kept it fun and engaging the whole time. Some of us had a lot to learn, others came to refine, but everyone walked away a better shooter—from the novices to the experts. I left feeling excited to practice what I learned and continue improving. Couldn’t recommend these guys more! Train with them, you won’t regret it.

Just had my first ever solo simulation session and how cool is this?! An amazing way to really perfect your skills, learn new tips, and practice real life scenarios. My trainer Nick made me feel very comfortable, is super knowledgeable and cannot wait for my next session! Also canΓÇÖt recommend the Fundamentals Mastery Course enough! Great day learning and growing in my skills. Not to mention everyone is just fun to be around.

Good training today for our church security team.

Today, I attended a 4 hr. training session, at Simshot, with members of our church security group. The training consisted of 2 hrs. on the simulator and 2 hrs. of instruction. The simulator presented authentic shooting scenarios, which force the participants to consider threat levels, positioning, communication and environments. The classroom instruction was well rounded and covered threat assessment, legal concerns and tactics etc. I was a Deputy Sheriff, with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Dept., for over 34 yrs. I was impressed with the quality of the training and the knowledge of the instructors. I highly recommend Simshot to anyone, from beginner to experienced shooter.

Simshot Concealed Carry Class is excellent! I took the class in October, 2024 on a weekend. Nick, Jeremy and their team were very professional and knowledgeable. The course content was infomative and presented in an upbeat manner. Definitely not boring! I highly recommend their course for those seeking to obtain a concealed carry license.

Great class. Lots of knowledge given both in class and at the range. They make it a fun experience worth going to. I would definitely recommend Simshot to anybody. IΓÇÖm planning on taking my wife there for their simulator also.

In class we covered a lot of life threatening, life saving, and how to avoid possible violent situations any one of us could be confronted with any time any where. I am getting old and know that I look much more vulnerable, but now I truly believe I can make a better and quicker decision should I unwillingly be drawn into a defensive situation. I really enjoyed shooting at the range, much more comfortable with my handgun now.

Dealing with Simshot was amazing. Nick and Jeromy were more than accommodating and both went out of their way to help me with my Enhanced Conceal class. I had an appointment set for a Saturday class, but had to cancel because of my job. Nick and Jeromy quickly rescheduled me for another class and didnΓÇÖt make me pay anything extra. The classes were very interactive and fun. I have been to CCW in other states before where I had an issue with getting to stay awake. Not this class. Was very informative and fun. The range time with Nick was awesome. He showed me a couple things to change my grip and it instantly improved my shooting accuracy. Definitely recommend SimShot to everyone. Best CCW program I have ever been a part of.

I am relatively new to handgun shooting, so I wanted to learn the basics. I can't envision a better pair of coaches than the team at Simshot. Between the simulator time and the live fire training, my precision, accuracy and confidence with shooting have all shown a dramatic increase. I particularly appreciate that their approach is not a one size fits all, but is geared to the individual needs of each shooter.

I recently had the incredible experience of signing up for SimShot, and I canΓÇÖt say enough great things about this company! From the moment I became a member, I was impressed by the unique concept of offering both virtual gun training and real, live gun days. I had the pleasure of attending one of their in-person gun days, and it was nothing short of amazing! The instructors & owners, Nick Parks & Jeromy Whelan, at SimShot truly set this experience apart. Not only are they incredibly knowledgeable, but they are also genuinely great people who care deeply about the safety and progress of every participant. Their teaching style is exceptional ΓÇö clear, patient, and personalized to each individual's skill level. Whether you're a beginner or more advanced, they know how to meet you where you are and help you improve in ways that feel empowering. The virtual training platform is also top-notch. It offers a fantastic way to practice safely and effectively, with real-world scenarios that push you to think critically while honing your skills. But nothing compares to the thrill and professionalism of the in-person gun day. The instructors guided us through every step, ensuring everyone was comfortable, confident, and improving their abilities. It was a perfect blend of fun and learning! SimShot is a must for anyone serious about training, whether for personal defense, sport, or just to better understand firearms in a safe environment. I canΓÇÖt wait to continue my journey!

My fears are fixed, thanks to Jeremy and a one-on-one session on the range, and then a private simulator session with Nick. DonΓÇÖt waste your time and money on instructions with anyone but the SimShot crew!

We started by having a date night here to get some basic fundamentals down and brief education- thinking it would be too short to really grasp too much. One hour and not only did we have a blast but we walked away feeling like we learned so much. Fast forward and was so pleased and grateful for the amazing concealed carry course they put on- highly educational with situational relatability. Great guys that deliver it straight while keeping it fun and interesting. Jeromy runs his business with a huge desire in wanting you to walk away knowing what youΓÇÖre doing and feeling confident. Highly recommend!

Have been shooting for 40 years! Thought I was an Expert, but quickly learned I was not even average! Much has changed for the better over the last few years and Simshot is on top of it. I especially appreciated their High Demand and Training on SAFETY! I will never go anywhere else for my continued learning. It was fun, but always felt safe and professional. Very much enjoyed the experience!

A nicer bunch of guys youΓÇÖll rarely meet and very professional. I just finished taking their enhanced Ccw course and although I had to takevt the required course in California to get my California Ccw permit. Yes they really do exist although few and far between as IΓÇÖve never know or even met anyone else that had one but the sim shot course was far and away a better morbinformative coarse. Base on several hours the first day of a more layed information Al course started of with Jeremy who has a good sense of humor while still giving a lot of informal law information in regards to concealed carry of course and the knowledge that we all as carriers need. Aftervavfewvhours They brought in some good jimmy JohnΓÇÖs sandwiches for all of us. About 10-12 in the course I guess. And then I believe it was Cory for some more law information he gave with with some information gleaned directly from his personal Experience as a law inforcement officer After Cory was Jessica? From thebuscca concealed carry insurance association with an offer to us for joining right in the class with some bonuses. I would think that anybody that is actually concealed carrying should have some form of insurance that covers you in that bad situation vifbyou should ever have to pull that trigger. As they cover any and all costs associated with that Shooting including their own lawyers. And legal defense teams and includes I believe up to one million in various coverage and ythose cost will really ad up probably. The next day we all met up with Jeremy and nick at the double tap gun range for our day of Live fire qualification. And I want to thank nick especially as I had some gun troubles with both my guys which is a little vexing and embarrassing in front of two highly qualified shooting trainers and 12 other shooters but nick was right there to help me each time. The guns are both going in for a good going over by a good gunsmith. My ruger p89 had never failed me even in limi IPsec competition shooting a few years back but it sure acted up that day. With failures to eject and to reload probably because of the ejection issue. But more worrying is the same types of failures on my little berea 380 because that is my carry gun just because of its smaller size size. I have carried the ruler but the gunwriters that wrote it up when it first came out about 1980 or so which is how long IΓÇÖve had it but the writers nicknamed it the brick and they ainΓÇÖt wrong. It is a brick and I donΓÇÖt enjoy carrying it. It up til now has been a good and reliable piece as had the bersa but both are getting a going through. As for SShot I thoroughly enjoyed itt and learned an awful lot from the course and the instructors. Highly recommended. And its called simshot because the have the largest simulation shooting course around with hundreds of simulations available and I and definitely going to be taking ad vantage of that as we all need to keep learning and training if we are going to carry a weapon. My thanks to all at Simshot

Nick was amazing. Explaining everything in terms a new shooter could understand. Started at square one with me, and 2 hours later I was confident in my ability to use my fire arm safely and accurately. Learned the basics plus some! Thanks, Nick, I will be taking you up on that concealed carry class real soon.. Jerri T.

If I could give 6 stars, I would! This is a top notch operation. Extremely professional yet, fun. I recently completed their concealed carry class. Jeromy is no joke when it comes to shooting but he knows when to make it fun and when it's okay to "let loose a little". As a single woman, wanting protection and knowing how to use it is very important to me. They helped me to understand the importance of gun safety and helped me feel confident enough to load, make ready and fire with ease. Thank you Simshot, I will be back for more lessons!! You guys are true professionals!

We signed up for the enhanced concealed weapons class with Jeremy and Nick. Before the class I was super nervous , when we got the to class these 2 guys made all my nerves go away!! They didnΓÇÖt try to belittle me or make me feel like an idiot if I had any questions or if I answered a question wrong. They were down to earth and make it easy to learn from !! Then when we went to the range Nick and Jeremy were so easy to work with. If I had any issues Nick would take the time to walk me through what happened and then would help me get it all worked out. I will DEFINITELY be going back for more training/classes!!!

I was very nervous before attending this course. Worried about psycho gun guys all hopped up on caffeine and hate for the government. 😁. This was not even close. They were very kind and very informative. Helpful all along the way. When corrections were needed, he did it quietly and nicely. Never made me feel nervous or uncomfortable. I left feeling confident in handling my pistol. Thank you Simshot for a great day.
