Just completed the class today and it was a great experience. I was dreading this class since lets be real it's going to be dry and boring for the most part. But the class is very informative and Lance made the class so easy and enjoyable. Lance went over the important parts of the course and focuses on what we should do in situations and broke things down. IF you pay attention to the class you will pass the written exam it is not rocket science and the way Lance puts the information you will learn the right thing to do. So just pay attention to the course. The classroom was only 4 hours with breaks and he provides you water and sodas. Again very very enjoyable time for this class when I was walking in dreading the course. The class does start promptly at 8am so make sure you are on time! Lance then takes us down to the range a bit away from the class and we get ready to shoot, it is an outdoor range so bring sunglasses if you can because it was a bright sunny day. We got loaded up and he instructed us on how many rounds we will fire and how quickly to fire them. AT 3 yards I used my M&P Shield and it was no problem, we fired 20 rounds total at 3 then moved to 7 yards. Again another 20 rounds not too bad with the shield with a shorter barrel. Then we moved to 15 yards and fired 10 rounds I hit the target and mostly in the 7 range at 15 yards. Again all this is happening with Lance giving us instruction on how many rounds to fire and how quickly to fire. Great class very enjoyable if you are going to take a LTC course take it here with Lance you won't be disappointed. Tip for the range bring a full size pistol with a longer barrel just helps with accuracy, doesn't necessarily have to be the gun you are going to be carrying that you are going to test with. read more

My friends and I signed up for Lance's CHL course and the experience was great from start to finish. Lance was very prepared and was very patient in his approach. I highly recommend Lance for a fantastic experience in getting my CHL. read more

We were scheduled to take a CHL class from another instructor this weekend and the class was canceled last minute so we looked around on Craigslist and found Lance's class. He was able to accommodate four students on rather short notice. He answered our call quickly and was very helpful before the class even started. His class was held at The Holiday Inn Express in Georgetown which offered a nice comfortable seating area for all of the students. Lance was very well versed in the law and gun safety as a whole. His class was not only educational but engaging as well. The qualification was held on a private outdoor range. The thing that I really liked about that was it wasn't crowded and offered us the ability to really concentrate on qualifying. Lance was well prepared. His educational aids (PowerPoint, posters, books, handouts, etc) were well done. He also supplied the class with coffee, soft drinks, and water throughout the morning which was definitely not a requirement but was much appreciated. If you are looking to get your CHL, or maybe just take a training class, you should consider Lone Star Gun Training. You'll be pleased with all that Lance has to offer. read more

Lance did a great job with the CHL class today! He kept the attention of the group with tasteful humor, while keeping the message on track and not short selling the course content. He was very professional and "in charge" at the range. With a fairly diverse mix of experience from a shooting perspective, he did a great job ensuring all instructions were clear and consise without the dumbing down approach that some instructors are unfortunately guilty of. I would recommend this instructor/company for anyone in the central Texas area; worth the drive. Mike Brooks - Cedar Park read more

Set up a private 2hr class for my wife to learn to handle a gun then later take a CHL class from Lance.

Best money I ever spent. Lance did a great job, got here fear of shooting over with and very patient. Now we can go to our place and shoot and she will be ok. Thanks Lance will be back for CHL soon. read more

Great class! Just took the class 1/27/18. Lance did a great job both on the classroom side of presenting the safety, legality, and practical information in a format that made it very interesting. I am a big Andy Griffith fan as well. The communication was very well done. Took time to follow up on the most important aspects of carrying. Range experience was very well done. Safety was always being communicated to prevent any issues. Could not have had a better classroom and range experience. Highly recommend this coarse for anyone wanting to understand the process in detail. Thanks again, Lance! read more

My wife and I enjoyed the class. Lance went over lots of information with us. Lance was very friendly and answered all of our questions. There was coffee and other beverages Lance provided for the class. The range was great too. Lance was great with instructions regarding firing your weapons and being safe. I would definitely recommend Lone Star Gun Training! Thank you Lance! read more

I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated my LTC class from Lance last weekend. I learned so much and he made it very enjoyable too. Super informative, helpful, knowledgeable and he provided so many additional tips to make you think about what you're doing and how to apply laws to real life situations. He was very professional, including on the range. He helped anyone that needed guidance and he was cautious to keep us all safe. He even spelled out the details we all have to meet to get our license. I have no complaints, just compliments! Could not have chosen a better all-around instructor and course! read more

My wife and I just completed a 2. Hour private pistol lesson with Lance Mitchell. We both agree that the class was great value as we learn a lot about firearms in that class. Being first time gun owners, Lance understood our position and spent quality time in showing us everything we need to know about being a responsible gun owner. He was very professional and friendly. We came into the class nervous about shooting and came out of the class with confidence highly recommend this class and this instructor to anyone interested in being proficient with a gun. read more

I recently completed my CHL course, taught by Lance Mitchell. While I was already familiar with much of the required content, I found his course and approach to be quite informative. I was expecting the 4 hours of in-class work to be painfully boring but was pleasantly surprised. Lance kept things moving in a light hearted way and related the course work to real life situations. He knows his stuff and I would highly recommend his course to anyone looking for value beyond the simple CHL requirements. read more

Lance provided excellent, pertinent instruction in the classroom and spot-on range control at the qualification test on the range. You won't find better LTC training in Central Texas. read more

This was A very well organized, simple, and entertaining class. Well worth the price and time. My wife and I truly enjoyed ourselves. Well run, safe, and informative. Lance is well versed, qualified, and efficient! read more

I highly recommend Lance with Lone Star Gun Training. The CHL class was very informative and engaging. Lance used some great videos and provided very useful insight. Additionally, he provided drinks for the class. The gun range was close by and he did a very nice job of balancing everyone's needs vs not letting the class take all day. I have already recommended Lance's class to my friends and would recommend for anyone planning to get their LTC. Thanks Lance read more

Me and my husband completed a private 2hr course with Lance today and we were so pleased! Compared to what it would cost to take some other NRA "FIRST" courses that offer the same sort of "basics of handguns" the price is competitive especially if you take advantage of that he allows up to 2 people to take the course. He starts with the true basics, from things like ammunition types, to the different parts of each gun. We both left feeling much more confident and excited to improve our skills! read more

If you are looking for a CHL Class at a good price and not fall asleep, look no more. Not only was the class informative, it was also entertaining. Lance does a great job teaching and keeping you engaged. The time flew by and I had my certificate in my hand in what seemed like a couple of hours. Lance is very helpful, and no question was a dumb question. He made everybody feel comfortable and welcomed. I highly recommend this course with Lance. I plan to send friends his way soon. Also check craigslist for coupon codes. Great job Lance, thank you for you time and knowledge. read more

I have taken this class a few times, mostly because of my travel schedule and not my ability to close things out. That being said, Lance is hands down one of the best instructors I have had, to include Super Nintendo Duck Hunt Grand Master, Ali Babba and His Forty Pistoleros, and the US Army Marksmanship Unit. I highly recommend his class, and was very impressed by his aptitude with firearms as well as conflict resolution (he convinced my girl that she shot better than me, way to go Lance!). In all seriousness, I would highly recommend this class to my family, which is about as good as rec as I can give. read more

My wife and I took range shooting practice with Lance and were impressed with his professionalism, friendliness and instruction. We decided to take our LTC with him as well. As we expected, his instruction was thorough, his approach both professional and friendly. His style was relaxed, and made sure you understood the material and felt free to ask questions. After both the range instruction and classroom we feel very confident and capable in our knowledge and skills. read more

Just took their CHL class and no complaints here. The 4hr class was very informative and helpful. Lance the instructor was very organized, well prepared and professional. He even provided free cold sodas/water bottles and coffee. Just be prepared to bring a sweater or jacket, the classroom which was held at a Holiday Inn got a little too cold for some. The gun range was outdoor (about 7miles away from where the class was held) so dress comfortably especially if you are taking this class during the heat of the summer. Price of the class was very competitive also, maybe the 2nd cheapest I found. But you really can't beat this deal. Good price, good class, good instructor. Thanks! read more

I took this class based largely on the reviews from yelp. I was not disappointed! Lance is a great instructor. He was clear with his instruction, easy to follow, humorous, and as a consequence, everyone easily passed the written test. The shooting range for the qualification is a short drive from the Holiday Inn. Lance took command at the range to ensure everyone followed the safety rules and understood the shooting requirements. I would highly recommend this class for anyone in the Georgetown vicinity. read more

I took the CHL class this past weekend with Lance. I have been putting off taking the course because I was nervous I would be the least experienced one in the class. Lance makes you feel so comfortable and treats everybody the same no matter how much prior experience you have. The class of very informative and the shooting portion goes by extremely quickly. It wasn't long and before I knew it, I was leaving with course completion certificate in hand. Lance even sends a follow up email with lots of useful links. He also tries to to I next humor in the class, and it was much appreciated! I highly recommend this class to anyone. He was even one of the cheapest classes I found! read more

Lance was awesome and a great instructor! The class was both entertaining and informative. He was capable of answering all questions and ensuring everyone comprehended the course. Will definitely recommend his class to anyone. read more

I completed the LTC Course today; fantastic experience. I feel I received a very good review of the Texas guns laws and a very solid review course. I would definitely recommend to friends and I have already referred a colleague and his wife. Thank you, Lone Star Gun Training! read more

Lance Mitchell is a very professional, high qualified instructor. For a person who is new to the gun owning business and never has shot before, he made me feel very confident on my choice of being a gun owner. Class was never boring, very informative, understandable and he's very good on following up with communications and guidance. Thank you Lance for making my CHL experience unique, easy and fun. Highly recommended!!! read more

The class was for informative and addressed not only gun safety and the law, but also situation awareness and critical thinking when it comes to potentially dangerous situations. Mr. Mitchell was very professional, while the content was up-to-date and relevant. I would recommend Lone Star Gun Training. read more

Lance is a really great instructor. His class was well thought out and he kept the class engaged in conversation. The PowerPoint slides were easy to read and very informative. He also had some short clips within the PowerPoint that proved his point. I liked the fact that the classroom size was small and that the seating was comfortable. It's held in a hotel conference room and it's next to the snack bar in case you get hungry. Lance went out of his way to even have free soda in a big cooler ready for you to have at no extra cost to you. Overall you are going to be happy you took the CHL class with Lance and its why I am recommending him to everybody I know that wants to get a CHL. read more

I initially signed up to take Lance's LTC class the middle of September, but after going to the shooting range and seeing how terrible I was at only 3 yards, I panicked and postponed the class. After much practice at the shooting range I felt brave enough to take the class today. What a great experience today's class was! Lance made the class so interesting. He has such a great sense of humor too. We had so many good laughs with the videos he showed today and the funny stories he told about his own experiences. He made the learning experience interesting and fun. People pay better attention and take in more when they find the learning experience interesting and upbeat. I also chose Lance's LTC class since his price was $69 compared to most of the competitors overpriced $100 and $120 rates. The shooting range is a quick 7 minutes from the Holiday Inn Express and was a very easy and quick transition from the classroom to the shooting portion of the class. His instructions at the firing range was clear and very easy to understand, and he was extremely patient and helpful with each individual student who had any trouble with loading their weapons or understanding the commands. What a nice touch when Lance took a photo of all the students after the class completion and sent a copy to everyone's email along with instructions for how to follow through with the DPS to get your license. Lance also had beverages and coffee available during the class at the Holiday Inn Express. Lance is just an all around nice, friendly, honest guy too, with just the right temperament to teach this kind of class. I would highly recommend his class over all the others, especially since his price is very fair compared to the many other overpriced LTC classes out there. read more

The class and range testing were both incredibly helpful, informative and engaging. Lance offered lots of practical advice and emphasized safety and the importance of ongoing education beyond the class. He was fantastic instructor and I highly recommend him and the class to others! read more

Lone Star Gun Training was highly rated and a much more reasonable cost than most the other License To Carry (LTC) training courses found on the Internet. The website is very informative, easy to navigate, and the calendar made it easy to select a convenient date for the class and range qualification. Lance Mitchell is a great instructor, and kept the course content informative and interesting. Pay attention to what Lance says in the training and passing the written test is no problem. The range qualification was very organized, and Lance controlled the activities to ensure everyone was safe. I highly recommend Lance and the Lone Star Gun Training. read more

I took the class with Lance this past weekend and it was great all the way around. The classroom at the Holiday Inn was very nice and the short drive to the range for qualification was convenient. Two thumbs up!! read more

Lone Star Gun Training is comfortable and provides a no stress highly informational classroom experience in a hotel conference room in Georgetown. Coffee and water are provided along with several breaks to get up and stretch. The gun range is close by and not crowded. It was a fun experience. read more

Highly recommend! LTC class went by quickly because Lance is both informative and entertaining. We'll be sending our friends and family!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the class yesterday. We learned some really good information, and really liked Lance. Super guy! He was personable, very knowledgeable, and shared some interesting tips, anecdotes, and stories. He also made it very comfortable to ask questions. He lead the range and shooting test with good command, organization, and clear instruction. If a shooter had a gun problem, he took charge and kept the situation safe, which I appreciated. Another thing I thought was great was his communication and organization before, during, and after the class. For instance, he included clear requirements about gear to bring and clear directions on how to get to the range in an email prior to the class. After the class and shooting, he made it clear on the steps to take to apply and get your LTC. And then he followed up with a good, informative email too, which included helpful links and our class picture. Nice touch. There was really nothing left ambiguous or confusing. I would highly recommend him and his training. Thanks Lance! read more

LSGT was great for my LTC training. My instructor Lance M. was great. He was patient, to the point and has plenty of experience. Best of all, I felt safe at the range for the qual test. The price is good, and they got me in the class pretty quick compared to others I looked into (I had to wait about 2 weeks). I noticed that he took time with some people that needed it, which tells me he really cares about instruction and not just making a dime. Thanks Lance / LSGT. read more
