    "George and Nick were so amazing. They helped both my wife and I get comfortable with handling the pistols and getting trained for being able to shoot at the range. The information that we received with them went perfectly with all the USCCA online training. It certainly pays off to participate with hands on training at a range with high quality instructors connected with the USCCA materials. We had an enjoyable time and we practiced what we learned with them at the range. I couldn’t have asked for better instructors. Thank you George and Nick for your professionalism and friendly demeanor. I am definitely looking forward to getting additional training from George and Nick in the future."
