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."
Great experience! Mike is clearly very knowledgeable and experienced. It is also obvious that he cares very much about safety and running a business that caters to his clients, but also doesn't compromise on the fundamentals of effective tactical combat techniques. Extremely thorough and unique experience. These are serious concepts that are to be employed in serious situations, but Mike ensured it was all as fun as possible. My brothers, father, and I were thrilled with the experience and Mike was excellent at staging photos and shooting really cool video to make us all feel like commandos. LOVED IT! I recommend everybody give this a try and really get into it, you will NOT regret you did!!!

Bob was informed and hilarious. He definitely needs to branch out and teach way more things. There could be some signs to in the hallways to show where the classroom is though.

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.

Didn’t know what to expect as I heard it was pretty intense however the owner (team leader) made the experience very seamless and entertaining. I took my 23 year old daughter for her birthday and she was blown away! We had a blast and felt safe the entire time!

I love this company's products and what they stand for. Their products are definitely quality, I've been putting them through hard use for years and they hold up great. It's great they make the body armor here in America, love to support local labor on home soil.
A few people have voiced complaints about delays in their product, but I've seen them be up front, honest and friendly about why there is a delay and what they're doing to fix it. Some supply chain issues don't sound like their fault. Customer service has also emailed back quickly, and when there was a delay of a few days was apologetic about that.
Lots of my friends and family love and use their products too. It's an easy company to tell your friends about, as their integrity shows through in their products and communication. They also have some of the coolest and funniest content on their social media!

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.

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.

I walked into this unsure about whether or not I was ready for this purchase.
I've been back and forth.
After training with the lasers, I learned I was left eye dominant and it was seemingly difficult plus heavy to shoot.
It was extremely uncomfortable.
Ironically, the loaded weapon was far more comfortable and simpler to use.
The owners were patient, informational, intentionally amazing hosts and this is a must have educational experience.

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.🖤

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!

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.

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!

If you’re looking for a fun, adrenaline-pumping, skill-building experience, the Black Ops Adventure at Arizona Tactical is an absolute must! Mike, our instructor, was phenomenal—his expertise and passion for teaching made this adventure both thrilling and highly educational.
This wasn’t just a fun outing; it was an opportunity to gain invaluable skills. Mike taught us how to think and move strategically in high-stress situations, communicate effectively with each other, and adapt to dynamic environments. His guidance was clear, encouraging, and practical, ensuring we felt confident throughout the experience.
The state-of-the-art gear was impressive. From cutting-edge night vision goggles to high-quality replica weapons, the equipment elevated the immersion and realism of the adventure. It felt like stepping into a tactical mission straight out of a movie.
I can’t recommend this experience enough! Whether you’re a thrill-seeker or someone looking to sharpen their tactical skills, Arizona Tactical Adventure is the go to!

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.

Richard came back with the answer through email even included an illustration in how to solve it. I know I'm now ready with the correct placement of the plates.

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.

I took my 15-year-old son to the Shoot House Mission at Arizona Tactical Adventures, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, it was clear that safety was their top priority. Mike, our instructor, was highly professional and walked us through every step—covering weapon handling, room entry techniques, and effective team communication. The scenario felt incredibly realistic but was always controlled. My son was engaged, challenged, and learned a lot—not just about tactics but also discipline and teamwork. The use of non-lethal training weapons made the experience both safe and exciting. This was a great father-son bonding activity, and I appreciated how seriously Mike took his role in keeping it both fun and secure. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a unique, action-packed adventure that prioritizes safety and learning. We’ll definitely be back.

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.

I recently had the privilege of visiting this absolutely amazing place, and I cannot express enough how transformative the experience was for me. The staff are not just well-trained and professional; they exude a level of expertise and passion that is truly inspiring. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and supported, and it was clear that everyone there is deeply committed to personal and professional growth.
Throughout the event, I didn't just learn new techniques; I gained invaluable life lessons that have fundamentally changed the way I approach being a teammate—in business, in life, and in every endeavor I undertake. The workshops and activities were thoughtfully designed to challenge us and foster deep connections among participants. The level of team bonding that occurred was beyond anything I could have imagined. We didn't just work together; we built lasting relationships based on trust, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to excellence.
This was not just an event; it was a journey of self-discovery and transformation. I found myself stepping out of my comfort zone and embracing new perspectives. The insights I gained have had a profound impact on both my personal and professional life. I feel more confident, more connected, and more capable of contributing positively to any team I'm a part of.
I am absolutely planning to return, and I highly recommend this extraordinary staff and their programs to anyone seeking meaningful growth. Whether you're looking to enhance your skills, build stronger relationships, or simply take a step toward becoming the best version of yourself, this is the place to do it. It's simply outstanding—an experience that earns an A++++ in every possible way.

The staff are not just well-trained and professional; they exude a level of expertise and passion that is truly inspiring. From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and supported, and it was clear that everyone there is deeply committed to personal and professional growth.
Throughout the event, I didn't just learn new techniques; I gained invaluable life lessons that have fundamentally changed the way I approach being a teammate—in business, in life, and in every endeavor I undertake. The workshops and activities were thoughtfully designed to challenge us and foster deep connections among participants. The level of team bonding that occurred was beyond anything I could have imagined. We didn't just work together; we built lasting relationships based on trust, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to excellence.
This was not just an event; it was a journey of self-discovery and transformation. I found myself stepping out of my comfort zone and embracing new perspectives. The insights I gained have had a profound impact on both my personal and professional life. I feel more confident, more connected, and more capable of contributing positively to any team I'm a part of.
I am absolutely planning to return, and I highly recommend this extraordinary staff and their programs to anyone seeking meaningful growth. Whether you're looking to enhance your skills, build stronger relationships, or simply take a step toward becoming the best version of yourself, this is the place to do it. It's simply outstanding—an experience that earns an A++++ in every possible way.

Amazing backpack! I wear it everywhere I go. I had an issue with a zipper seam ripping apart and I wasn’t able to use that pouch anymore . I reached out to them in and email and they immediately replaced the backpack. All I had to do is swap the armor pad and I was good to go.

Great company. They messed up my order and not only communicated with me about the problem but ended up sending me two of the missing product. Their products are well built. And they are a good company. Bit slow to communicate. But my guess is they will get a lot faster in the future. They are focused on taking care of their customers and I will be a very loyal customer to these guys.

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

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.

I have called these guys and purchased items from them multiple times. If there are ever long hold times, it's only due to the fact that they spend the time with each customer bending over backwards to assist them with questions or products. Super impressed. I've probably recommended them to 300+ people - no joke.

Absolutely one of the best experiences I’ve had. Knowledgeable. Will be coming back soon. Great job to Mike and Mr. Baker.

My fiancé and I just finished up with a training sesh. Absolutely had a blast. Our instructor Michael was top notch. He was very informative and was able to break it all down step by step, catering to independent skill sets. 10/10 will be going again. Its perfect for vacationers, as well. If you're just passing through the wild west and want a little taste of freedom, stop on in !

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.

Bought a gift certificate for my husband and son, as a Father’s Day gift. Sent them to the shoot house for a boys weekend. The fact that they couldn’t wait to tell me everything about their experience says everything about their experience. Our son was less than thrilled to be drug to this, but by adventures end, he owned an air rifle and is completely sold on tactical adventures. The professionalism of their instructor made the experience for both of them. My husband was able to enjoy the experience with his Boy, in a way that left without the instructor would have been difficult to achieve. They are both planning for the next time they can go.

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.
