Arron and his team are the best out there. I have been shooting for years now and have been…read moretrained by some good firearms instructors. I can tell you if you have Arron train you, you will go from having a good instructor good to a great instructor. He has improved my shooting skills to a marksman level. He teaches all levels of firearms training from beginners, moderate to experienced shooters. He focuses on proper gripping of the firearm, stance, breathing, hand and arm placement/coordination, trigger pull, reloading etc. all of which improved my skills. And he is very comprehensive in insuring his clients are informed about compliance of the law in every aspect depending on the class you are taking. His intangibles with his clients are second to none: caring, patient, informative, detailed oriented, laser focused, systematic, organized, disciplined, safety focused, self motivated just to name a few. Don't waste your time hiring a firearms instructor with an ego and attitude who intimidates you at the range (you know what I'm talking about). If you want the best, who is highly skilled and knowledgeable in this field, and who is patient, caring and understanding and will work with you based on your skill level, look no further. Arron is your guy.

TJ is a wealth of knowledge and helped developed this course for the NRA, so we are getting training from the source. The most valuable part of this class was everything was taught from concealment and TJ made sure to give us the tools to teach these skills safely so our students can win a fight. The one surprising skill was learning how to teach concealment from a purse. This was eye opening. If you want the best use ALLSAFE.

But once the class began, the way Mike and Katie structure the course makes everything incredibly approachable and easy to retain. By the end, you walk out feeling far more informed and genuinely confident. During the live portion, they're great at spotting habits we don't even realize we have, and they correct them in a way that feels supportive rather than stressful. Their teaching style really puts you at ease. I'm so glad I found them. I'll definitely be keeping up with my permit renewals through their classes. Absolutely worth the time and money.

I contacted about 10 schools and most didn't respond timely, or just directed me to interact with their websites. Katie was patient and responsive that helped me through the registration process as someone new to a convoluted process and not familiar with the various agencies, forms and requirements. Throughout the course, Katie and her husband demonstrated deep knowledge and experience with both firearm operations and safety, and even more importantly, the current laws from federal to state that are relevant to a CCW holder. They do not provide legal opinion, only sharing the facts. I also appreciated the way they conduct the class with no personal nor political opinions or views, just facts with what's currently allowed or not allowed. I heard some horror stories from fellow classmates that had dealt with other CCW instructors on the list and felt very fortunate that I ended up at the CCW School. Given my 10 years of range history, and CCW holder for several other states for the past 3 years, I learned ALOT from Katie and appreciate the vigor CA put behind the program. I believe this is a valuable course for anyone considering CCW.

This is not were magazines are just unloaded into random targets. Every shot is analyzed, scored and coached by these experts. Each person is once again given individual attention and thoughtful critiques for your continued improvement.
