I was impressed with the spaciousness of the store, the availability of product, and the friendliness of the owner, TJ. The noise from the range was a bit much, but I'm sure I could get used to it.

It was clean and friendly. It's a good place for new people. Experienced shooters will find the STRICT rules a bit too invasive. Was a double the price for range time of OMB guns where my wife and I usually shoot. But it was near my grandfathers house so we decided to try it. So bottom line. Friendly knowledgeable staff. Clean and nice facility. Expensive and very strict. This is an honest review 

Business response:

Jeramie, I appreciate you taking time to review Target Time Defense and your business. I value reviews very much, both the great and the not so great. I'm glad you found our staff friendly and knowledgeable and our facility clean and nice. I do want to address two points for the benefit of anyone reading this: At Target Time Defense our range fee is 15.00 for a single shooter, 12.50 per shooter if shairng a lane. OMB Guns fee is 10.00 PER HOUR, per shooter. So we are not double the price. We offer our range time PER DAY vers... read more

TJ Nigro hit a home run with this place. The location is excellent, being in Blue Springs it's great for those of us in Eastern Jackson County. Their sales staff is knowledgeable and patient. I have yet to encounter the traditional gun store counter crowd there, if you've been to some of the others that have been around a while, you know what I mean. The only thing I think I'd like to see change is minor, and will probably happen with time the longer they're open, I would like to see more used firearms for sale. Not necessar... read more

Business response:

Jeff, Your review really made my day! I mean it. I've put my family at considerable financial risk with this endeavor. Reading comments like yours calms my nerves and lets me know that we are on the right track. I appreciate you. On your comment about pre-owned firearms; I agree! I've bought or traded for almost every handgun that has been brought to me. We sell most of them very soon after getting them. Coincidentally, I traded for a Ruger P94 .40 cal yesterday afternoon and put it out last evening. It is priced at 224.95. ... read more

Just left there, my first visit to a gun range in almost 20 years. The staff were all very friendly to myself and my son. They walked us through the safety briefing, recommended a great handgun to get comfortable with and then made sure we were comfortable with the operation of the gun before we began firing it. We will definitely return and recommend them to our friends. 

Business response:

Mark, Thank you for posting your kind review. Glad you're revisiting the shooting sports after 20 years. Hope to see you often at Target Time Defense sharpening your skills. - TJ Nigro, Owner

The only indoor range in the KC area that will allow you to practice with inexpensive steel cased ammunition. There are also NOT overbearing range people and everybody seems pretty nice. This is my new favorite range! Keep up the good work! Hope to attend a CCW class very soon. Thanks again! 

Business response:

Ross, thank you for visiting Target Time Defense and posting this review. Although the steel cased ammo makes a little more work separating it from the brass for recycling, we a very glad to have you shooting on our range. That's why some ranges don't allow it, they don't want to separate from the brass. - TJ Nigro, owner
