I spoke at length with Mr. Collins to try to get my daughter set up for a basic class. Since it…read morewas a gift for my daughter, I purchased some blank gift certificates, and met Mr. Collins to complete our transaction. This was his first time doing a gift certificate, which is why I purchased the blank certificates and gifted them to him. On the day my daughter was scheduled to meet with him, he contacted her to ask her if she was fully vaccinated. Because she was not, he cancelled the class and refunded my money. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. I recommend that Mr. Collins put a disclaimer on his website to at least let people know they must be fully vaccinated in order to train with him.

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

The instruction and practical application they utilize not only helps build on your good habits, but also gives you the information and training to recognize bad habits and quickly identify what needs to change in your training regime (If you have ever wondered why you hit low and left, QPro can help you). They provide the tools/drills that can be used outside of the classroom to continue bettering yourself and become more proficient. Overall, you won't find a better or higher caliber training experience anywhere else!

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.

I brought in my wife and two sons (16 and 18) and then he asked how many of us were over 18. I said 3. He said he could only sell us 3 boxes. Then he said actually it's 21. I'll only sell you two. He gave us some BS story about not being able to sell handgun ammo to anyone under 21. Which even if that were true (which it is not), I'm 40. If the guy didn't want to sell me ammo they should have told me on the phone instead of changing their story twice after I already drove the whole way there. Plus he was a big jerk about it. Just drive the rest of the way to Albuquerque. Hopefully these guys will go out of business soon.
