After having to reschedule a couple of times due to conflicting schedules, I attended the concealed carry class. The class was well structured and super informative. Ed and his team of instructors do a fantastic job covering the material and making sure every student receives the instruction they need to be successful and safe. The staff is well equipped to assist everyone from first time shooters to military and law enforcement professionals. I will definitely refer all of my friends and family to Ed and his staff for all of our future firearm safety training needs. Thanks FAST!!!!

I had seen Merlinda's post on a community FB page that they had CCW classes coming up. Had actually…read moretalked to my husband about taking a class awhile back. So I FB messaged her about registering and she walked me through the sign ups. She even messaged me to confirm the number of people I wanted to register and when I would get location information. When I didn't respond to their email, she messaged me to let me know. Sure enough, the email had gone to my "junk" folder. The class was two days: day one in a classroom and day two at the range. Nice class size, and very interactive. Love how we take a class to carry a weapon but learn all the things we need to look at to avoid getting into a confrontation where taking that last resort is necessary. We were also assisted with filling out our CCW paperwork which made that a breeze. Steve is an excellent instructor and very professional. Out on the range he was super patient and helpful to anyone who was a novice or needed extra help. Made sure everyone understood the rules again and that everyone was safety-conscious. He got us all qualified and we didn't even realize that's what we were doing!! We also were able to buy ammo to shoot other handguns that were available. I would highly recommend taking a class through Sierra3Alpha if you are considering any firearms training.

My plethora of questions were promptly answered by a knowledgeable staff member and I am excited to take a course in the coming weeks with instructor Rachel! They offer a huge selection of firearms and ammo and have range memberships which we are thrilled about! One stop shop for everything you need, conveniently located at the bottom of Coors and Irving and an overall great atmosphere! They offer really good specials... If I remember correctly, Monday is half price for the range and Thursdays is ladies night. Gotta check them out!

From their house, students have to drive to the firing range minimum 40 min with no traffic. Then have to drive minimum 20 min to wherever lunch will be then drive back to their house. For the amount they charge, the snacks are just nuts and the 99cents sparkling water cans from walmart Also the firing range fee is not included in the payment, so thats another fee on top of the gas. I wish i purchased from a different place nearer to a city center, where i dont have to plan a whole day drive. Sure theyre good people, but thats just too much money flying off the shelves for the same service you can get elsewhere
