Threat Dynamics in Sherwood, OR

[lihpster]

Has anyone had dealings with these folks? They're a tactical training outfit with an indoor range, instruction, video simulation, gun rentals and sales. Ammo is available on site. Well, usually, anyway. I need someplace I can shoot that's close to me. this place fills the bill. However, they have a $25 lane rental fee for the general public. They have memberships available starting at $50/mo and going up to $100/mo. I'm thinking of getting a membership but I wanted to ask if anyone would recommend or warn me off of them before I signed up. They're main business is the tactical training, but I would just be looking for somewhere I could shoot. I have a few guns I've never shot. Like 12. So what say you? Are these guys good to go or not? TIA

Sounds like it would be worthwhile to do lane rental a few times and get a sense of how things are handled. I wouldn't commit to a membership without knowing how the place is managed. You may could see if they would credit part of the rental fees to a membership if you decide it fits your needs, doesn't hurt to ask.

I agree with docjonson.

Might have to look into them. I'm not too far away. The SAW rental looked fun. Especially on a birthday...
I'm a member at Albany Rifle and Pistol. Far less expensive (especially for LE) and great for training in the pistol bays. No rentals though. Since the Machine Gun shoot has been canceled there, this Threat Dynamics might be good way to shoot a full auto or suppressed firearm for the experience.

Haven't heard of them otherwise, I'd want to get bio specifics and see what they have to offer training wise...

When I took the tour, they told me that they only use mags for the SAW. No belts. They also have suppressors to rent, I believe. The training is the main focus. Classes are $50-$150 and seem to be about 3.5 -4 hours. Plus the video simulators and private instruction is available. I don't know if the training is good or not. You can look them up on Google or PM me and I'll answer what questions I can. I know what courses they offer, just not what's taught in those courses.
