Great information on the firearms, their designs and history. Fun shooting, wish we had more ammo but times are hard. Highly recommended.

Peter is extremely dedicated and knowledgeable in his craft. His friendly and conversational demeanor makes it an incredible learning opportunity. For all the history buffs out there, you are in for a true treat! Peter has collected incredible amounts of World War 2 artifacts beyond weapons which helps humanize the experience that millions went through. This was made even better since we were not rushed by any means. This is a MUST for history buffs and/or gun enthusiasts!

This experience is definitely unlike anything else you'll find out there. Not only do you come away with an awesome once-in-a-life opportunity to shoot the historic guns of your choice, but you also gain a tremendous amount of knowledge about the manufacturing and modifications to the firearms during the course of WWII. I also learned a TON from Pete about the how these guns can translate to the evolving geopolitical situation of the era. Especially if you love history, you'll love this experience. Pete is extremely knowledgable, tells the stories with great detail and cadence, and gives you the opportunity to step into history for yourself. Make sure you ask him about some of his other collections as well--as he's an expert on many eras! Thank you Pete for the hospitality and great experience!
