Relevant Feedback

Very informative & well done. Safety is a priority & is emphasized throughout the course. I learned the names of the parts of pistols & revolvers, and what their functions are. I learned how to fill a magazine & load a gun, proper stance & readiness to press the trigger. The full day course (9:00 to 6:00) was a little overwhelming for me (a lot of information to absorb), but might be fine for younger people. For older people, several 2-hour courses might be easier. Dr. Jimmy was patient and encouraging.

Overall a well put together program that definitely is beneficial to untrained shooters. Great atmosphere. Very knowledgeable instructor and friendly helpful staff.

Excellent facilities, professional instruction, well developed safety protocols

Everything was fantastic. As a beginner, I went in with next to no knowledge and learned a lot through the guidance from Dr. Jimmy and Logan. Thanks for the class!
