"long class boring material. Chris overcame these obstacles and presented a great learning experience."
Submitted on Sun, May. 31, 2026 by Anthony S.
"Thank you for the kind words. While some of the required material can be challenging to present in an exciting way, I work hard to make the information practical, engaging, and worthwhile. I'm glad you enjoyed the class and found it to be a valuable learning experience. I hope to see you in one of our upcoming pistol skills development classes taught entirely on the range. These live-fire classes are a lot of fun!"
