    "My instructor Brain Bowen did my concealed carry class. He worked with me around my work schedule to get me in there also did a great job of teaching me things I did not know myself. I would recommend to go see him if your looking to get your concealed or even if you want to learn the basics of firearms. He has several classes to sign up for. I will definitely be back for another class the road."
