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."
My 15 year old daughter and I did the night vision room clearing exercises for my birthday. Coolest thing I’ve done in a long time and she and I turned out to be a great team. I’m excited to go back to try all the different adventures they offer.

Our Daycare staff had our CPR/AED/First Aid class with American Emergency response yesterday. I just have to say that Ms. Tatjana was an amazing instructor! She was punctual, set up quickly, had a wonderful attitude, energy, and great knowledge of the course work. It is wonderful to see individuals who put a lot of effort into what they do! I highly recommend you request Ms. Tatjana as your instructor with American Emergency Response!

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.

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.

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 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.

Trained long range rifles with rob and ER tactical and learned so much in a short time. I now have a full knowledge of my firearm and scope. I’m safer, more accurate and confident with a healthy respect for firearms than I’ve ever been before. Definitely worth the time and money.

Bobby came to the office and trained a few of our staff on CPR, pro health care, and BLS/AES. He was excellent and very thorough. We had time to ask questions. You can tell he is very passionate about teaching and giving his students the tools to be confident in their abilities. Thank you so much Bobby, we appreciate you! - Chandler Chiropractic team

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 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.

My wife and I are senior firearms instructors at a facility in Indiana and were very impressed with what Arizona Tactical Adventures offered. The opportunity to work as a pair or team of 4 working trough tactical room clearing scenarios using night vision equipment was incredible. Mike, the instructor,, did a great job of making sure everyone was having a great time, but maintained a focus on safety throughout. Mike also did a great job adapting the 2 hours to the level of experience of each person present. I would HIGHLY recommend this company to anyone! Mike will take care of you and you will have an awesome and unique experience. We were so impressed we are working at bringing a group of instructors out to take more training with Mike later this year.

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. 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!

Ive had an AR plate carrier since the early 2010s. Didnt know much about it other than it was AR500. I recently met a young man, Carson, who works for the company that spent his evening looking through every product Armored Republic has ever sold until he found mine. He then talked to me about the newer models, and what would the most comparable upgrade to my tried and true current carrier. fantastic customer service

Wow, my family was blown away by the experience! We were not sure what to expect but have had some training in the past with both firearms and active shooter situations. Mike was our guide for our shoot house adventure and he is also the owner. His knowledge and expertise really shines as he allows you to learn at your pace while delivering his years of experience to you in a digestible manner so you do not feel overwhelmed. We had a great time learning, and experiencing what happens in high tense situations and we felt safe the entire time. Do not hesitate to confirm your booking here as you will not be sorry!!

My brother, dad and I did the Black Ops experience over the Christmas break and had a fantastic time! Mike was extremely prepared and detailed throughout our time together, made sure that safety was emphasized and thoughtfully answered our many questions. Though we all have a basic background with firearms, and that is beneficial, the experience could be done by anyone comfortable operating a long gun.
The experience is broken down into two components, a training session in which room-clearing procedures are presented and practiced, and then a live session which puts the training into practice. The latter component is scored and done several times with the goal of improving in different scenarios. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone in search of a fun, informative and interesting activity!

I visited the showroom of this local body armor manufacturer on a Saturday and was impressed by the service. All three staff members were exceptionally helpful, dedicating time to detail their commitment to quality in protection. The body armor carriers they produce are of superb quality, and it's notable that they manufacture their own ballistic plates.
For anyone seeking top-tier, innovative protection for their family, this company is highly recommended. Additionally, they retail Mira safety masks and provide expert advice on these products. If you're in the market for reliable personal protection equipment, this is the place to go.

Purchased the BOGO Veritas Plate Carrier package and couldn't be more happy with the quality and price. Had a mixup with an order and their customer service is top-notch. Had the pleasure of interacting over the phone with Aliyah and she was personable, funny, and very helpful. Spoke with Michael S. via email and he was very professional and quick to respond. This customer service experience definitely instilled some confidence in this company to take care of their customers. I've since purchased additional items from them, and look forward to them being a solid part of my self defense plans moving forward.

Me and my dad booked the shoot house and it was a blast! Felt like we were real navy seals for 2 hours. Would be very fun for the whole family to do it but needless to say it was an awesome experience

Order the testudo bogo, shipping was on time. Can’t give any reviews on the product and I don’t think i will ever get shot or shoot at my carrier to test it out but beside that, very happy Doing business with ar500armor, there was some missing items on the order. Didn’t take more than 1 email from me for Alyse to send me a tracking for those missing items. Superb customer service. Great products!

This was an incredible experience that was truly eye-opening and informational. Everything is well organized and the instructor, and owner Mike is superbly knowledgeable. I'm just a regular civilian and I walked away more confident and self-aware! I would highly recommend this experience to everyone and anyone that is looking to get a better perspective on tactical, home defense, and situational awareness. You will get all the tools you need and if you are law enforcement or involved in any military type of program, this will probably level you up even more! Thank you Mike for being available and giving us the knowledge for a lifetime!

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.

Dagmarie was wonderful with explaining everything and showing step by step how to handle different situations. The group aspect made it more fun since we all were doing it together. Great experience and I hope more people take this class!!

The best kept secret in the firearms training industry! I've attended training with some of the biggest names in the firearms industry and they don't compare to the level of real world skills, informations and practical systems that you learn from Rob. Whether you're new to firearms or a seasoned shooter, Rob manages to tailor his training to work with you. Best of all, Rob makes training fun and engaging. I've attended over 10 training classes with Rob and plan to attend many more.
