He's very detailed and patient to explain the safety and use of every gun whichever you prefer to own. In a single session, he let me used 22 caliber then a 9 mm then a 45 caliber and even his assault rifle. It was a delightful experience and highly recommended to be trained by Mike.

Great experience and I left his training classes feeling very comfortable with using, operating, storing, and maintaining my home defense firearms. In his training program, he also covers information pertaining to the legal aspects of owning & operating firearms.

You can find him through Baxter Firearms Training, but I found him through Always B Training .

I was actually surprised at how much fun we all had. It was a great day.

I was excited to find out that there was a company in California that did firearm training with…read moresimunitions. I signed up immediately and was able to get in the next training session. On the morning of the class after everyone signed in and safety equipment was handed out. We went down to the range to practice some holster and live fire drills. As someone whom has taken firearm training in the past I felt this to be a little redundant. However it did allow to gauge the firearm skills of the other students that you would be shooting against. Once all the firearms were converted to shoot simunitions. We went right to running through scenarios force on force, to shoot or not shoot. After each scenario the instructors worked through them discussing all the actions that occurred. After lunch we started in the Shoot House. Where we ran through several more intense scenarios. The class was fast passed and very little down time. At the end of the day I enjoyed the class and learned several things that can use every day. I am interested in taking more classes from Train To Survive Tactical maybe a carbine class next time.

The shotgun was in good order but the handgun had been taken down and was missing its guide-rod and one of the two magazines. Those were easily replaced by me. My issue with Ralph is now closed but I cannot recommend him. Ralph didn't do his job but instead initiated an unfortunate series of events that cost me time, money, and energy.
