He kept everyone interested helping us to actually understanding the Illinois gun law material, and there is a lot! but never a boring moment. The shooting range qualification training was awesome!

This initial encounter was quite the opposite from what I experienced with other training providers. The training material was presented with great emphasis on gun safety, understanding legalities, hands on weapon training and though understanding of the social responsibility that the CCL entails. The facility was convenient but rather dark because of low lighting. The class room was cold at times as well. But, the quality of instruction well made up for this. Highly recommend others to consider HG Training for their training.

This place is fantastic! I've been a member here for over 3 years now and I can't say enough good…read moreabout the place. In fact, from what I have seen, everything this Ru A guy below is saying is 100% B.S. The Ranges are top notch, the facilities are modern and very-well maintained, and all the 'staff' are extremely helpful and full of tips to help you improve, and patient with new shooters. The only 'staff' that work there with shooters are the folks that run the events held on the East side ranges. Practical Rifle, 2-Gun (pistol and rifle) 3-Gun (pistol, rifle and shogun), USPSA, IDPA, are some of the disciplines practiced there. There are no staff working on the west side directing shooters in any way. At your New Member Orientation, you are taught how to use the ranges and conduct yourselves. You have no one hanging over your shoulder when you go there to shoot. There are range safety officers that make their rounds, and thats it. So Ru A here is either talking about another range, or he is blatantly lying, probably because he got corrected for doing something unsafe and stupid. And the club has nothing to do with Eventbrite, so that is another lie Ru A told. This is the nicest, best-run gun range in the whole state. Their shotgun ranges are truly Olympic-Grade ranges, with modern machinery and electronics. The West side ranges go from 30' to 20p yards, and the 600 yard range is available to anyone that qualities to shoot on it (not hard). Go to an Event and see for yourself. The best part of the club are the people. They are absolutely FANTASTIC! It is well-worth the membership fee if you enjoy shooting. And as a member, you can join their training program to teach you a little more advanced self-defense techniques with your firearms. That alone was worth the membership to me.

Matt also has a firearms simulator where you can run drills that you would not be able to do on the range.

This weekend I took the CCL class with Joe and Terry, and I honestly can't recommend them enough…read more I've been shooting for a few years now, but I walked away from the class feeling much more confident in my knowledge and aware of how much more there is to learn and stay sharp on. My parents took this class last year and had been nudging me to sign up. I kept putting it off because sitting in a classroom for 8 hours over a weekend sounded like a nightmare. But wow, was I wrong. Joe and Terry made the time fly. The class was engaging, informative, filled with real-life examples that tied directly into their experience, all while tying in their great senses of humor. It was clear this wasn't just a dull PowerPoint read-along like I feared I'd get elsewhere. Their team is equally amazing: super personable and helpful, both in the classroom and out on the range. I didn't catch everyone's names, but every single staff member made the environment feel comfortable and judgment-free, which I really appreciated. I can only imagine how much that meant to the people shooting for the first time. If you're on the fence about taking this class don't be. It was an insightful, empowering weekend and I'm so glad I finally did it. Thank you again, Joe and Terry!
