Absolutely Amazing experience!! Sean helped us out and was super helpful. I went in for 1 garter holster and ended up buying a 2 pack of the garter holster and a sticky holster. He did a fantastic job explaining them to me and how easy they were to use. I absolutely recommend them. We live in Arizona but may drive to this store for all of our future firearm accessory purchases.

Don't go anywhere else. This is the ONLY place you want to go to fire high power Firearms in Las Vegas. Not only is it a firing range, but a fully equipped gun store!
The people here love what they do and really go out of their way to give you an exceptional experience. We had Scott and he could tell we wanted to know the ins and outs of high-powered firearms, and he went above and beyond and explained things that normal visitors would miss out because they just want to fire a gun.
You can go anywhere else in Vegas "just to fire a gun" but here, you get the full experience at a really good price. So good that we tipped not only our instructor but the driver who picked us up from our hotel and dropped us off. All for free!
The whole experience for us took, from pickup to drop off - around 1.5 hours.
They will take photo's for you, let you take photo's and videos, you can pose with weapons and you will leave feeling buzzing.
Ask to shoot a .50 cal desert eagle. OMG the biggest handgun ever. Has no real world use but it's like shooting a canon.
They have HEAPS of different packages. We chose the 2nd Amendment package with the desert eagle option.
Will definitely be back again for "the works" package!

Absolutely rude! I admitted to the sales guy that I was a beginner when it came to rifles (I own pistols) and was looking to make my first rifle purchase. His attitude was as if he couldn't be bothered to answer any questions or assist me in figuring out what would fit my needs best. I've used their range and purchased ammo and accessories from them before, but I won't be going back.

I attended the monthly ladies class that is held the first Thursday of the month that is $20. I called ahead that day and was told the topic of the class was AR-15. I was really excited to learn more about the rifles! What happened instead was very disappointing. Noticeable errors were present and egregious safety violations occurred in the class.
When I entered the class, the instructor, Darius, was talking about his personal protection work for celebrities as well as his TV appearances. He said he is on TV very frequently and doesn't like when people walk up to him and recognize him. Apparently he is a widely recognized personality. I've never seen or heard of him but I don't watch much TV.
Class began just fine. Darius isn't articulate but I thought would probably still have valuable information. Shortly into the class, I noticed some information that just didn't sound correct. The third time I heard something that didn't sound correct, I started taking notes so I could verify my knowledge and do research to get deeper understanding. What I learned is that the information presented is inaccurate.
Noticeable errors:
1) Darius explanation of rifling is inaccurate. He mentioned AR-15 barrels have various rifling ratios including 1:7, 1:8, 1:9, however his description of what those ratios indicate was incorrect.
2) Darius description of .223 and 5.56 ammo was also inaccurate. He stated that .223 is strictly for civilian use and 5.56 is solely for military use. Not quite sure how I was able to purchase 5.56 ammo and have it in my bag since I have no military experience.
Egregious oversights:
1) Early in the class, Darius took a few .223 rounds from his AR magazine and gave one to each student to examine and hold. These rounds were not collected. Later in the class, Darius passed around his rifles so we could look through his optics. Two of the rifles he passed around were the same caliber as the round of ammo that I still had sitting on the table in front of me. He also passed around a 9mm firearm for us to see. I had a round of ammo as well as a rifle that uses that ammo in my possession, in a classroom at the same time. Incredible safety violation! I definitely hope no one is injured in future classes.
2) The students were taken to the range to shoot an AR-15 as well as .22. We had great supervision when shooting the AR-15 and good instruction for the .22. A few of us had brought personal firearms. We were given permission to choose a lane and shoot. At this time, we had absolutely no supervision at all. No RSO was present. There was one instructor teaching with the .22 pistol and no one else present to watch what the students were doing with their own firearms.
Also during the class, Darius bragged about killing a man with a AR-15 rifle. He told a story about a man committing various crimes, and the FBI and Metro being unable to capture the individual. This criminal then broke into Darius house or something and he killed the man that no one else could catch. Darius stated that he wasn't proud of what he did, but was very excited to tell the ladies class about it.
In summary, the ladies classes held at Discount Firearms and Ammo are unsafe and filled with inaccurate information. I will not be returning to this program unless it changes drastically. I was excited to attend a program just for ladies and was extremely disappointed with the result.
Joseph A Wyson, the owner of Discount Firearms and Ammo was contacted about this but never responded. I wanted to give him the opportunity to respond to this privately, however no response was received. I received an email asking me to review Discount Firearms and Ammo based on my experience.
