    Megan was very professional and she provided all the information I needed to become a responsible gun owner. Jason also worked with us and he was very patient with us as we asked multiple questions.

    Megan was amazing! I was a complete beginner with handling handguns, and she covered more than I actually was expecting to learn! ...She was thorough, and answered all questions. Super high energy and kept us all involved with the discussions. Top Notch instructor for sure! We will be taking more classes and clinics with her!

    Class was informative and helpful in a relaxed and easy to learn environment. Instructors paid attention and attended to our individual questions and needs. Materials were easy to follow and we have notes and take-home materials to re-read and connect with to continue educating ourselves.
