    "Excellent experience, now wether you get a steal on the price like i did with my group or not. This class was an eye opener for me. I have my conceal carry in my previous state, and as i said in class it was a crime how easy it was to get it. I learned so much in this class that i didnt even think about and coming to a new state and even more of a reason as the rules are all different. The staff is great, energetic, kind, and humous. There was a disruption during my class and the instructer remained peaceful and handled th e situation with the nost respect. So yes!! I encourage all to attend even if you have a conceal carry attend the class. There is also specialized training, firearms, a range and the ability to obtain legal help if ever you have to urilize what you learn via this course and in general. People stop reading this pages reviews and signup!!!"
