Join the #1 community for gun owners of the Northwest
We believe the 2nd Amendment is best defended through grass-roots organization, education, and advocacy centered around individual gun owners. It is our mission to encourage, organize, and support these efforts throughout Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming.
I visit this facility and their prior facility regularly (sometimes weekly) for the past 7 years now. Staff is always well trained and informative. They tend to favor 1st responders and former military for their instructor staff which adds to the realism of what they're teaching.
All the firearms for sale are on consignment, so this is not a gun shop per se.
They have plenty of rental handguns and rifles of varying types.
The simulator system they have makes for a different type of training/entertainment than normally available.
A buddy and I were here a few years ago and overall it was great.
The concept is excellent.
The problem I had was almost everything was out of order.
The first gun I had shot was off so I started to compensate (shoot right or whatever it was) and was doing okay, but that was a disappointment. Then it ran out of air and I got a new one. It was missing a rear sight. I was given a third that worked but my buddy had a lemon too.
I want to go again and give them another go because I believe the concept here is exceptional. Even with those annoyances, the training time was good and I definitely learned a few things that day which is more than I can say for half the training days I do on the range live fire.
If I get back there some day and it's changed, I'll come update this.
They Offer both Live and simulate fire range

I have visited Threat Dynamic's numerous times. Only once was the shock belt available. I was disappointed as I was under the impression the belt was use to simulate you being shot but instead it was used to simulate what the employee thought was you getting shot. Let me explain. Our entire trip we didn't get shocked until the last simulation where it was a hostage scene If the hostage got shot you got zapped. It was a no win.
My other complaint was they don't recharge the mag's after each use so you run out in the middle of a timed event. This happens every time even when I bring it up before hand.
Oh and the time they argued with me about the gun being off telling me it was me that was off and I told the guy then lets go into the live fire to see if I am off. Then about 3 shots later the gun stopped working altogether So I got a different one.
Over all not a bad place to kill few hours. Great to introduce someone to guns as they can play with the simulated fire range.
