New Delaware Law Alert: Starting November 2025, Delaware residents need an approved training course before purchasing a handgun. TSS offers the state-approved SB 2 course with live-fire range time included.

Reviewers consistently mention three things: clean, modern facilities, knowledgeable staff, and instructors who make the experience comfortable regardless of experience level. One reviewer traveled from Montreal and called it "first-time firearm and rifle experience" that they'd "highly recommend." Another noted TSS became their go-to range because of proximity to their workplace and the quality of instruction.
