    "Grant Gallagher, hands down, is a true Instructor's INSTRUCTOR. Grant is very patient and puts all of his student instructors at ease when going through firearms fundamentals and safety. I would VERY HIGHLY recommend Grant if you want to share your knowledge of firearms and learn how to teach others the safe and correct USCCA way."
