The same NRA trained instructor handled both classes and made some of the "boring" parts less so. What really stood out for me was qualifying on the range the last day. The instructor was all business. No grab ass, no excuses. Safety first. If you don't cut it, you don't make it. That being said, the instructor goes above and beyond to help you make up any short comings. Well worth the money and time.

I learned that .22 Long is not the same as .22 Long Rifle. Less grains and slightly shorter. Those bullets were jamming my gun. Looking forward to shooting with right bullets.

They do a good job in making sure everyone is following safety procedures while at the gun range. To use a lane at the range is about $20 and you can bring your own ammo or purchase it at the store. I also went to the beginner's gun course that this store offers for $99. It was a good introduction to handguns and goes over the basics on how to fire a gun. They also offer concealed carry classes as well as others.

Long story short, my boyfriend moved to Maryland for work and I just started living by myself for…read morethe first time. My parents were both very worried about me living alone, so I thought a class like this would put their minds at ease as well as my own. Well the class was even better than I thought! Not only did we learn how to be more cautious of our surroundings, but Martin also taught us some moves that even little 5'2" me could use to take somebody down. After the class, I felt empowered! I feel like now I am better prepared and more aware of what is going on around me. I am an avid Yelper and I completely support and agree with everything this company is teaching. I urge everyone to take this class!

Both Kareem and Chanel are welcoming, and as a duo and individually, they know their stuff! I did not realize the anxiety that I had developed around firearms due to a personal experience, however, I can say that I feel more confident than I did before completing this the course which includes practice shooting at a local gun range. I also love that this business is black-owned and women-owned because I realized afterwards, that being lead by familiar faces while learning new material such as this is important. 10/10.

The GIFT team did an amazing job with the in-class training and hands on demonstrations. It was a bit long but once we arrived at the shooting range, it was clear why they were so thorough during the class. Both instructors were patient and made sure that each student had an equal amount of practice, guidance and support. I enjoyed the day way more than I ever thought I would. Will definitely take other classes with them.

This was a 5 hour sales pitch. He taught us nothing about how to load or unload a weapon, but we…read moreknow all about the book he's writing and his career accomplishments. Dude went over very few laws, very few helpful things, but did tell us to KEEP THE GUN SAFETY OFF. We learned that any concealed position other than hip is useless, according to him. We learned that his guns are right above wholesale prices. You start with a speech about why you should buy from him. I'd say 80% of the actual class is him pushing his tactical master classes, and then you end with a speech about buying those and how "worth it" they are. If they're anything like this class, I can assure you, they are not worth it. He tries to convince you they are by telling you gun ranges are a complete and total waste of time. All the 5 star reviews look great... until you realize he bribed us to do them. You get store credit for leaving a 5 star review. (A significant amount of store credit). I did not take that opportunity because 1) I knew I wasn't going back there and 2) I wanted to leave an honest review. They do have a good warranty on their guns, (provided they actually honor it, but I don't, and won't, know). The short of it is I left that class knowing nothing. I am so grateful for a gun runners class I took 6 years ago. I learned so much more there than I did here. If this were the only weapons class I took, I would have absolutely NO business concealing a firearm. Somebody is going to get hurt.

This company has turned predatory…read more I recommended this company to a friend, as I previously took a very good class there. My opinion has changed. Yes it is during the coronavirus. Yes things are right. But they essentially provided an online course with the cost of 100$ and a separate affadavit required to get the necessary licensing, and told my friend to go elsewhere to have someone else sign the form. No instructor in their right mind is going to sign a form on someone else's training. This is a money gouging play, and the details are not well provided, and it should not be allowed to stand.
