Student comments:

"Ed made sure there were no questions as we went throughout the training. His ease with the information made it comfortable to ask questions while leaving nothing "unknown." It was obvious that Ed has a passion for sharing his knowledge regarding pistols to others! "... "My goal was to leave the class feeling comfortable with the handling of a pistol. Goal was exceeded by all of the information that was shared regarding parts of a pistol, the parts of ammunition, and the safety necessary for handling a pistol. "  Kathy H.


"The instructor was very knowledgeable and informative. His emphasis on gun safety was very enlightening and helped me feel more at easy handling my hand gun because I knew more about how to safely and properly handle the hand gun. He answered any questions that we had. I will definitely recommend him to anyone I know looking to know more about hand guns and having a gun for personal safety." Taylor S.
