Great stop for outdoor wear! Solid men's and women's apparel! Courteous and helpful staff as well! I'll be shopping here more often! Have gone in a second time and got a deal (BOG50 off) AND a 2-shirt long sleeve package for work. Exactly what I was looking for! Much appreciated that staff for looking for items 'in the back' to see if they had something that might be what I was needing for work!

Incredible experience with Mike at Arizona Tactical. Not only a true professional, but one that has the living experience of covert operations and exceptional training programs as the instructor for some of our most elite forces here in the US. On top of that, Mike was a great instructor and didn't miss a beat. Correcting where necessary and cool on top of it all. Loved every second and took away what I would call a priceless education and one we all should have. My brother and I did this together and have already planned to return for the next go. We will be leveling up on the next run. If you've ever been curious about tactics and how to not only properly handle a weapon, but how to clear a room and communicate with your team member (if not solo) then this is the spot and this is the team to do it with. Extremely grateful for the incredible experience, Mike. Thank you. For anyone reading this far, don't hesitate. Go for it and sign up. You won't regret it. 10 stars if I could. Excellent

Mike runs a great experience here. teaching and safety are at the top of the list while having fun during the experience. Would definitely recommend and do again! Send me one! Send me one!

Carson was extremely helpful in answering questions regarding shipping and processing times and advised me that he has placed my order as priority. Great company and great customer service from Carson B

Ordered a complete setup from AR500 Valkyrie Berry Compliant Carrier with lightweight plates, tear away IFAK, TQ pouch and a Kangaroo Magazine pouch. Love the quality of all of it. It did take every bit of their lead time estimate plus a couple of weeks, but right now I'm not sure anything isn't backordered on materials. Communicated with their CS several times, Alyse Galor would respond to me rapidly and professionally can't ask more than that. The industry could use more people like this.
Bottom line, great company and people, great gear that's worth the wait.

My son and I had an amazing fun time! Mike is an incredible instructor and very personable! I highly recommend booking any of the adventures!!

We came to Arizona Tactical with a large group as a part of a bachelor party weekend. Mike and Michael were both great and made sure we not only had an awesome time but also learned a lot. I highly recommend taking a course here!

Here in Phoenix from out of state with the family so my son can attend a basketball camp. Looking for something interesting to do, I thought I would try Tactical Adventures. I go to the website and see the hours conflict with my son's camp. I decide to call just to see if it was possible to make arrangements for a later tour. I spoke to the owner Mike who was more than accommodating and we scheduled a time that allowed us to experience this once in a lifetime adventure. My wife, teenage son and I had an absolute blast! Mike ensures safety and fun and was very patient in his explanation of the process. I HIGHLY recommend this experience. My wife was even asking if we can go again before we return to Kauai.

The team at ER Tactical surpassed my expectations from the moment they answered my call. Most every experience I have had up to this point in the firearms industry had been negative and had revolved around dudes with guns making you feel dumb for being a rookie. That was not the case here. I went from 0-100 after meeting this team and have taken more than 25 hours of individual training. I've learned proper and every day applicable defense techniques, how to properly use an optic to shoot long range and with their help, I was able to learn how to build my first AR15. I can't say enough about the professionalism and knowledge these guys have. Thank you ER tactical!

Very good and most reliable body armor on the market,Armored Republic got some variety of products suitable for everyone in the family…got some delay issues in the last two purchases but the customer service was eager and very helpful to handle the situation…I’m very happy with all your products and all my friends are starting to get theirs from Armored Republic too…Rock n’ Roll baby!!…

I ordered my Veritas plate carrier during the lockdowns in 2020 when the getting was good. Just ordered my mag pouches and the configuration fit just the way I hoped. I took a chance with this company and I've had the privilege of communicating with their staff a couple times. Very high quality product, comfortable, plates are upgraded from what I used in the service, and their customer service is phenomenal. Special thank you to Michael Moon for all your help and suggestions. I've never been this happy over a product. Cheers.🖤

Rob is probably the best instructor I've ever encountered. He has mastered his subject and he has a knack for breaking down a block of instruction into easily understandstandable sections. I took his basic precision rifle course and will also be enrolling in advanced courses to enhance my skills. Strong recommend.

Lots of knowledge. If I lived here I’d be coming down for training at least 3 times a month. Would recommend to all levels. Great staff

Very knowledgeable in his craft and a very patient instructor. Have taken many classes with him as well as my wife. Would definitely recommend him as an instructor.

Wow! I was fairly apprehensive when my 13 year-old expressed an interest in learning to handle a real weapon as opposed to a video game. In my effort to find a good introduction, the excellent reviews led me here and they couldn't have been more correct. Mike and his team are incredibly organized, positive, methodical, and encouraging while maintaining a safe environment and being completely down to earth.

We learned to clear a room in the Shoothouse - and while the 13 and 16 year-old were faster (and scored better) - my spouse and I didn't do half bad! The whole experience was both accessible and fascinating - so much so that we may choose Phoenix as a vacation destination again so that we can come back and learn more.

Really great experience at AR500, I ordered the veritas package, looks amazing can’t wait to run a few drills. Had a hiccup during shipping but Michael M. Was quick to resolve it, really great and responsive customer service. Thank you AR500 Armor!

We had an absolutely incredible experience at Arizona Tactical Adventures’ shoot house! As a family of four, we were looking for something exciting, unique, and memorable—and this experience delivered beyond our expectations.

From the moment we arrived, Mike made us feel welcome and safe. His professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail were top-notch. The safety briefing was thorough yet easy to understand, putting everyone at ease, even for those of us who were less experienced.

The shoot house itself was an adrenaline rush! The scenarios were realistic, challenging, and tailored to our skill levels, making it fun and engaging for everyone in our family. We were blown away by how immersive and hands-on the experience was. It was like stepping into a real-life action movie!

Mike was patient, encouraging, and truly passionate about what he does. He made sure we left not only with big smiles on our faces but also with newfound confidence and skills.

This was, without a doubt, one of the most memorable family outings we’ve ever had. If you’re looking for an adventure that combines excitement, learning, and family bonding, Arizona Tactical Adventures is the place to go. We can’t wait to come back! Highly recommended!

I’ve bought from them three different times and I’m extremely happy with their products. I will buy again in the future.

Ordered two carriers. One I want to swap colors on due to a mistake I made in the order (wanted black mulicam but ordered multicam) and one I want to return because it doesn’t fit the 10x8 plates as advertised.

This is the email response (screenshot below). Claim they never advertised the 10x8 would fit one carriers, it only fits ‘their 10x8, when it says it right in the website description (photo below) it is ‘designed for 10x8’.

While the initial response from customer service wasn’t helpful, Carson Barney responded to my email and issued a refund for the item that didn’t fit the plate and sent me a second carrier in the color I wanted. Over and above what I was asking for.

Can’t always expect things to be right on the first shot, but much respect for vendors who own a mistake and go over and above to fix it.

Great CPR/First Aid class. Bobby was a cool instructor with a sense of humor. Made sure we got all the necessary information. Would recommend it to others.

I ordered side plates for my carrier and when I received my package only one plate. It was my mistake in not reading the summary correctly, but since all the information on the website used plural plates, I thought it was 1 set. Well, I called this great company and explained my disappointment to them. They explained the situation and since I was a repeat customer gave me a buy one get one free offer!
Now that is a company I will always deal with due to the value us customers have in their eyes! Great job Armor500!

Recently ordered battle belt bundle and noticed restraining strap had snapped. Contact their customer service; Alyse Galor responded swiftly and made sure the replacement part was shipped immediately. Happy customer and will continue to order from AR500.

I have purchased from AR500 Armor many times and never had an issue with any products. On my most recent order Fed Ex lost one of my boxes, not really sure how you lose just one box.But anyway I contacted AR500 and they contacted the shipper. I worked with Alyse Galor and she placed a new order for me, no charge. AR500 has really good customer service and they respond very quickly. And this issue was resolved quickly and it wasn't their fault. Thank you AR500 and thank you Alyse.

He is a very patient and great instructor. Have taken many classes with him as well as my wife. Would definitely recommend him as an instructor.

Had a great time learning tactics and hanging with the boys for a bachelor party. Mike was incredibly professional, patient, and encouraging of us to learn while having fun. He was highly knowledgable without being condescending, and i would recommend this training to anyone interested in learning tactics, or if you want a unique experience. I would love to go back and reconnect with the team anytime im back in Arizona.

Went with 8 lads for birthday gathering on Sunday 1/5/2025. Was a great experience. We learned a ton. It was great to understand the breaching & clearing rooms to properly protect your family & community. Our trainers were Mike Simpson and Mike K. They were both very informative and we appreciated they were no bs type of men because this type of training is very important due to the current circumstances within the United States. We will be back and also be doing individual training and sniping training. Thank you

Staff was friendly and helpful. I was able to find and purchase exactly what I wanted. There was no delay for checking out.

My brother and I had the best time at Arizona Tactical Adventures! Even the talk that is given to everyone was given with enthusiasm and humor. They really accomplish their mission very well. We learned stuff from trained professionals while having a great time and knowing our safety was taken very seriously. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we went back for more even it if was over an hour away and we had limited time. I highly recommend, they'll make it worth your visit plus you'll have great pictures. One of a kind experience.

Great instructors! Had an amazing time! One suggestion would be to have a print out or put all the scores on the screen at the end of the experience.

Great guys! You will learn more here than any other school on skills you will use in real life. Rob is one of the best instructors around.

AR 500 is an excellent choice for affordable body armor. I’ve been extremely impressed by the rugged manufacturing that holds up to the craziest of situations you can throw at it. I’ve spent nearly 3x as much with competitive companies and I’ve not been nearly as impressed as I have been with this set. The fitment is perfect for my body type. I’m roughly six foot and in fairly decent shape for an old retired grunt.

As importantly, if not more importantly, with as crazy as the world has gotten over the last year, their customer service is awesome. They work with you and keep you up to date on what is happening with your purchase as they build it for you. Alyse G. has been incredibly professional, positive and given me more than I could ask for! You can’t go wrong with the Invictus or their customer service. Thank you for a great product and good old fashioned American made customer service!

I’ve taken a few firearm safety classes, but this was by far the best one I have taken. I walked away with knowledge and confidence after taking this class. Rob is amazing and knows exactly how to break everything down in a way that is easy to understand. He will answer any question you have in regards to firearms and does not hesitate to show you how to do something until you fully understand it. I am so excited to sign up for another course with him! An outstanding man and company! ☺️👍🏼

We had an amazing time with Mike! We were doing some team building for our company, and it was amazing to see the parallels for real life and business relating to a simulated combat situation. Mike is a wonderful teacher and was very patient with the process of the different levels of experience with our team. Once again, it was a pleasure to go through the training, and we will be doing it again! If you haven't done it, you're missing out!

It was very informative. And inclusive. The instructor included everyone. Answered all the questions correctly and effectively.

I've been following this company for quite a few years now and only just made a purchase last week. Still waiting on my order to arrive, but this review is in regard to their customer service. I was unable to see on my account that my order was being processed, and the confirmation link I was sent did not work as well. I sent an email to AR and within minutes I got a detailed response and resolution to my issue. The customer service team was extremely courteous and professional!

It was a long shipping time but I knew that when I ordered. Got my plates on 11/19/2020' I was lucky when I placed my order it was their anniversary
so I got buy one get one free deal!!!! I have worked through the process with Kevin Wylie and he did a great job!!!!

Mike Simpson is a great instructor. Excellent class, highly informative. Cannot say enough, every shooter should take this class, at least once.

store is always clean and neat, Missy is always pleasant and aware of what is happening in the store. Calls me by name and is willing to check stock on products. Always enjoyable to visit the store.

Great experience! A very well run and fun simulation and training. Equipment and facilities are top notch. If you are looking for something unique to do with family or friends I would highly recommend it.

came to arizona for an anniversary and we choose to participate in Mike's tactical adventures.
he's very informative and takes the time to make sure everyone understands the task ahead. such a unique experience. we had a blast, time truly flys by when youre having fun.

Five-Star Experience with Arizona Tactical Adventures!
I recently had the pleasure of participating in a family outing at Arizona Tactical Adventures, and I must say, it was an absolute blast! From start to finish, Arizona Tactical Adventures displayed an unwavering commitment to gun safety, top-notch training, and an exceptional educational experience. I cannot recommend them enough!
Gun safety was paramount throughout our entire visit. Mike was incredibly knowledgeable and followed strict safety protocols, ensuring that everyone, regardless of age or experience, felt secure and comfortable. As a parent, this was a crucial aspect for me, and I was thoroughly impressed with their attention to detail.
What truly made this experience exceptional was the fact that it catered to a wide range of ages. We had family members ranging from 8 to 45 years old, and everyone was thoroughly engaged and enjoyed themselves immensely. Mike was incredibly patient and adept at tailoring the activities to suit each individual's age and skill level. It was a rare opportunity for the whole family to bond over an exhilarating adventure.

Fantastic experience. Mike was thorough and gave our company incredible memories.

I came in 15 minutes before closing and the store associates made my shopping experience super easy and helped me decide on the most comfortable boots I've ever worn. Will be back again. Thank you thank you to the gentleman that helped me choose my boots.

Mike and Michael were both super informative, and friendly. They know exactly what they are doing and I would highly recommend this to anyone and everyone. No matter the skill level.

THE BEST TRAINING YOU WILL FIND ANY WHERE, HANDS DOWN. IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS. THANKS SO MUCH ROB! I'LL BE BACK FOR MORE.
