New Gun Owner:
If you are a new gun owner or contemplating purchasing a firearm, you have come to the right place.
Learning Process:
The learning process begins with finding a trustworthy team who can take you through the first steps: what to buy, how to use, where to begin! WE'RE HERE TO HELP.
We Believe:
We believe that guns are tools. Tools amplify the abilities of the user. The user has to be prepared to acquire the necessary mental and physical skills, one step at a time.
Our philosophy:
Our philosophy dictates that every person who owns a weapon must acquire the necessary training of Mind and Body in order to take action in a responsible way. Not only must you learn as much as possible about the firearm you own and how to use it, but also know how to be mentally prepared to handle yourself in a difficult situation.
What our students say!
Ellen
Teacher"As a novice, this class made me feel comfortable and, most importantly, safe. The class was fast-paced, fun, I learned a lot, and feel so much more comfortable with my rifle."
Joe
Police Officer"Great course. Was better than Larry Vickers course by far… More than exceeded my expectations."
Brennan
Developer"Great instruction. I learned more PRACTICAL technique then in 4 years of federal law enforcement instruction. All business, no wasted time."
Very fun. Mike was super nice and respectful. He has a unique experience no one else can offer!

My wife and I were looking for something thrilling and unique to add to our excursions while in Phoenix celebrating our 10-year wedding anniversary. Mike and his team at ATA left absolutely nothing to be desired. Of all the things we got into while on our trip, our time with Mike will be what we're still talking about when our 50th rolls around. Mike's professionalism, expertise, guidance and (most importantly) patience with us demonstrates his passion for creating an exciting, memorable and one-of-a-kind experience that's going to be tough to top.
Kudos on the incredible program you've built, Mike. Thanks for everything and keep up the great work!

Just incredible from start to finish. Starting from the fact that Mike and his team made the Seal Experience possible for me even tho you need at least a group of 4 people all the way to all the way to all the information, training and fun provided in the 4 hour experience. Being able to get an 4 hour insight into tactical training by an absolute expert like Mike was a real blast. I highly recommend AZ Tactical Adventures to everyone. Thank you Mike for the great time I was able to have with you, your co-worker (forgot the name; cool guy with long hair) and the bachelor party that did the training with us.

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!

By far the best firearms course I attended so far. Rob Orgel has the right experience and mindset to create a unique, superior firearms course. Rob focuses on the most important aspects of using a handgun. Rob is a true master of his craft.

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.

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! ☺️👍🏼

Got an AR500 carrier and steel plates from them this week. Came in very quickly! (ordered it only a little over a week ago) Wore it for 4 hours and did not have any problems with shoulder or back fatigue. VERY COMFORTABLE!! Happy customer! Michael Moon (the ar500 representative I was talking to) was very helpful and responsive!

I live locally and have taken several dozen courses with owner/head instructor/Air Force veteran Mike Simpson over the last two years. It becomes obvious very shortly after meeting him that he is a master (and also a never-ending student) of his arts: tactics, leadership, and business among many others. Perhaps more importantly, he possess the ability to teach the skills he has developed in both the military and civilian worlds to others in a way they can understand. He will encourage you when you need it, and push you when you need that instead. All while still enjoying yourself! His scenario-based courses are an excellent combination of fun, adrenaline rushes, physical fitness, mental discipline, and problem solving. Mike is a professional in the truest sense of the word, and in many ways has become a personal mentor. I have no hesitations about recommending his training and adventures to you. I make the same recommendation to those I know in my personal life and have brought family from out of town, personal friends, co-workers, and neighbors along with me to classes. They have all enjoyed themselves thoroughly, despite vast differences in experience, age, fitness, and interests. If you take one of his adventures there is a high probability you will be left wanting more afterwards.

In the beginning, she stressed that she wanted the class to be a safe space to learn and she created that environment.

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.

Came here during a bachelor party and booked the 4 hour navy seal adventure. When I tell you that this was well worth the time and money I can’t express how Professional Mike was and how he was able to teach so much so well and in a short amount of time. Number ONE priority of his is safety and not once during the adventure did we ever feel like something we were doing was going to end badly. It was an absolutely amazing time. If I ever come back to AZ I will be back to do another training adventure with them.

Best practical / tactical training ever. Rob is highly engaging as an instructor and provides a wealth of knowledge on a variety of subjects at a reasonable cost. Taking classes with ERT have unequivocally made me a better competition shooter, hunter, and marksman. If you're at all interested in things that go bang, you would do well to book a session with ERT.

What a day! Our lead instructor was Mike, and he was amazing. The course was organized, structured, and thorough. His information and instructions were clear and concise. For me, the most reassuring thing was the emphasis on safety. Mike and his team were very stern and direct with all safety protocols, which made me feel much better about having my son there learning with me. The time flew by, and by the time we left we felt confident in our ability to handle an AR-15. While the cost was a little more than some other places, but it was well worth it. If you're looking for a firearms course in the Phoenix area, this is the place you want to go to. Thank you Mike, Ben, and the rest of the team for your amazing work.

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.

I did AZ Tactical Adventures for my birthday with a few friends and it was unreal. We spent four hours learning real commands, teamwork, and procedures used by professionals, all in a controlled, safe environment led by former Navy SEAL instructors.
The simulations get your heart racing and the instructors are clearly passionate about what they teach; not just tactics, but the mindset, discipline, and life lessons that carry far beyond the training room.
As a regular civilian, it gave me a huge respect for the real heroes who do this work for real. If you want something memorable, challenging, and way more meaningful than another steak dinner, this is it.

Not surprised to see all the Five Star ratings. After over 30 years in the military and college up to the Masters level I can say, with confidence, that Rob is probably the most knowledgeable and competent instructor I've encountered. That means he has mastered his subject and he communicates the facts to students better than most.
I am a Basic Sniper Course student and I will be enrolling in advanced training in the future.
ERT also offers tactical medicine training. As a practioner I'll be utilizing those con-ed classes also. Over-all superior instruction.

I highly recommend AZ Tactical! This was a birthday present for my 14 year old son. Our group consisted of our 11 year old daughter up to my 70 year old mother-in-law. Mike did an amazing job. He was able to teach us some basics of clearing a room of bad guys, while at the same time keeping it fun, exciting, and challenging.

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.

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.

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.

I have taken multiple courses with Rob Orgel with ERT and can honestly say that I have learned so much from him - safety, weapons handling, and like everyone's goal, hitting the target successfully. Rob Orgel is very knowledgeable!! Being a marine veteran and firearms instructor for ten years and private contractor in Baghdad for four years, he uses his skills and expertise to educate those that have a great interest in firearms and firearms training. Highly recommend!!!!

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!

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.

Super informal, the people there were super nice. If I might add you get what you pay for quality product. REI didn’t have water resistant boots but 5-11 did! So if you’re looking for outdoor gear that’s durable and comfortable I recommend them

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!
