I just completed my CCW course with John Lewis at NFI, and I can honestly say he was one of the…read morebest instructors I've ever had. John breaks everything down in a way that's clear, practical, and easy to understand--whether you're brand new or already experienced. He doesn't just teach the material, he makes sure you actually get it, especially when it comes to safety, responsibility, and real-world application. What stood out the most was his professionalism and the way he kept the class engaged the entire time. No fluff, no wasted time--just solid, valuable instruction that prepares you for both the test and real-life situations. If you're considering getting your CCW, I highly recommend taking the course with John and NFI. You'll walk away confident, informed, and better prepared. 5 stars all the way.

I've been a certified CCW carrier for many years and I've used NFI the entire time. I've recently…read morebeen confined to a wheelchair and wouldn't you know, it was during the time for me to renew my CCW. NFI has the classroom portion of the training available on ZOOM and I was able to utilize that program. The ZOOM call process was simple and the teaching right on par with the in person classes I've taken in previous years. The next day was the live fire range day and I was concerned about traversing the grounds at the gun club where this training was held. My concerns were for nought as staff was very helpful in ensuring that I could access my shooting lane and helped by making a couple of trips back to my vehicle to ensure I had all of my necessary equipment. I specifically had Emily as the range instructor and her techniques and directions were exceptional, not to mention her one-to-one assistance was greatly appreciated. As mentioned earlier, I've used NFI for many years and I expect that to continue. If you have CCW certification needs, I can highly recommend NFI.

They were patient and answered any questions that I had. In store I got to deal with both Jaime and Jacob. Both of these guys were very friendly, helpful, and professional!

All in all a great place for all your firearm needs!

I should have read the reviews before walking into this place…read more I walked in and immediately was asked to show ID. Didn't think much of it since I thought this was the store policy or something. I was greeted by a younger gentleman, he was very helpful and seemed eager to answer my questions about a firearm while the older man was very condescending and nudging him to stop talking to me. I felt like I was not welcome in their store. Every question I asked the older man was answered with an excuse on why they couldn't help me. None of the other customers that walked in while I was there were asked to show ID. Then after reading all the other reviews I realized it wasn't because they couldn't, but because they didn't want to help me. Also their prices are way to high. Redding guns, the gun cave, Bastiani arms and sportsman's have always been very friendly and helpful. I'll be going to them for any future purchases.
