I had the opportunity to do a 3 day course with them back in the spring. Some friends that live in the SLC area recommended them so I flew up to train with Rain6 and it was the best thing I could have done. I had just purchased a new pistol and AR a few weeks prior to the training and had maybe a 100 rounds between the 2 firearms and barely knew how to use them. I grew up shooting cans and small game with bolt action rifles and thought I knew firearms well enough, but I was so wrong. After 3 days of one-on-one training with them, I was running down range while shooting, hitting targets accurately, re-loading on the fly and transitioning in between weapons. It still blows my mind the things I learned in 3 days working with them. I am now very confident in using my firearms and have a detailed understanding of how the firearms operate, have a strong respect for gun safety and am now able to teach friends of mine that are wanting to learn how to use firearms safely. They were very patient and methodical in their teaching and tailored my training to take me from a beginner shooter to a proficient and confident marksman with a solid understanding of tactical maneuvers. The other thing that really stands out about working with the guys over at Rain6 is that they have real world experience in both the military and private security sector. These guys really not only know their stuff, they’ve lived it and can draw from that experience with real world examples while teaching. I can’t recommend them enough. The next time I need to get some training in, I know where to go.

Came up to Utah from Idaho on a holiday weekend and was hoping to stop by and get my hands on a Strike One Pistol. I called to see if they were open that weekend. Turns out they were going to be closed when I was headed back to Idaho. But after talking to James for a few minutes he said that he would open the store just for me. I showed up and he was a man of his word. He treated me as a customer, just like he would want to be treated. Even introduced me to his family who came down to the shop with him. So when that strike one compact comes out I’m going to make a special trip up to Utah and give him my business even if there is a place closer to me. Then continue to refer my friends and family to him.

The Rain 6 team knows their stuff. They have real world military and security experience that makes them different from almost every other firearm training instructor in the area. Rain 6 put together a great training corse for our company with shooters from beginner to expert. Everyone learned something and had a great time. Highly recommended for anyone that wants to further their shooting ability with amazing instructors.

I have only been in once so far, but I was impressed. It is not a big box retailer with hundreds of guns on the wall, but James knows what he is talking about and provides honest opinions and real world feedback. Looking forward to purchasing a Strike One and completing some training with them soon.

Love this place. Great instructors, friendly staff, great firearms and training. I took a few of their courses and walked out feeling completely comfortable handling a firearm. I also purchased my first firearm here. It was well priced and the instructors took a lot of time explaining everything to me. I highly recommend this place.
