A big thank you goes out to Bob, Gina and the staff of Accurate Arms! When I am in need of something I will always return.

Earlier this year, I took the Hostile Environments: Basic Defensive Pistol Application course rom…read moreLEO Defensive Concepts for the CCW requirement and to build my skillset. I was very impressed from my first interaction with Joe Leonardo. His team is made up of professionals with a tremendous amount of experience in law enforcement and professional firearm training. Their discipline and thoroughness permeates everything that they do, from preparing students for the class, through the running of the class, both in the classroom and on the range. The course not only instructs students in the proper use of their firearm, but includes critically important lessons regarding scenarios, proper responses, and how to think about and prepare for various scenarios. The course expanded my knowledge and capabilities significantly, but also reminded me that training is a journey vs. a destination. The most important takeaways for me were the reminder of the importance of ongoing training, proper practice, and developing and reinforcing good behaviors. Joe, Nick, and team are great instructors, and I look forward to taking more courses with them. If others want to develop their skills from solid professionals with discipline, patience, and a passion for doing things correctly, LEO Defensive Concepts is a great option.

Of course none of us were informed of this and the owner, Joe Leonardo allowed this without a waiver from the students. Great, just what I need a picture of me with a gun.

Our instructor was patient enough for us to learn a great deal but also paced enough to keep us on-task. He payed close individual attention to our technique, pointing out habits we each had and correcting us so we could shoot better. He also separately adjusted the drills to give seasoned shooters a challenge but also make things accessible for those with less experience. The way he conducted the class reflected his own experience and professionalism. They do other training, such as baton, pepper spray, shotguns, tactical defense, and a lot more. My friends and I are already considering further instruction and testing. We'll certainly be back for periodic firearms requalification.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! I took my behind the wheel classes here and they are AMAZING!…read more At my first lesson, I didn't know a single thing about driving, but my instructor Kristi was very patient and very good at teaching me what to do. I was taught how to turn the steering wheel, use turn signals, using the brakes and accelerator, changing lanes, merging lanes, deal with traffic circles, speed limit, and so much more! I went from driving with no accelerator around my neighborhood to driving with the accelerator in the main roads! Great progress :) Second lesson was with Shelby, who was very good as well! She showed me DMV routes, taught me how to reverse in a straight line, lane changes when there was a bike lane present, and had me practicing what I needed to practice most. I am now very good at turning, performing the task of a U-Turn, changing lanes, and looking out for bikers in bike lanes. My last instructor was Christian, who was excellent! Very verbal in a very good way. He repeated things that were important so I could remember him saying those things. He taught me how to look ahead at all times, he taught me how to park in the mall parking lot, and he really worked on straight parking! Thanks to him, I can park at many places and I'm able to park along the curb without ever hitting it! Overall, every instructor I had were excellent! They were able to teach me with patience, tips, and of course, kindness and encouragement! Very informative and they prepare you VERY WELL for the DMV behind-the-wheel test!

She very rudely over the phone accused me of giving her the wrong address, which I did not. When she finally got to the correct address she verbally attacked my sister for giving her the wrong address, thinking she was talking to me. She pointed her finger in my sister's face as she was aggressively speaking to her. My husband then asked for a discount considering we paid for 1 full hour of training plus the actual DMV driving test (to use the car) As he was not going to get the full hour he was only getting 30 minutes drive time before the DMV driving test appointment. Jezel was very rude and then started blaming him for the address navigation "issue". She told my husband "i don't have to be here i can go home, do you want to go or not"!? I ended up on the phone with jezels boss and she was more concerned with me paying full price for something we were not going to receive than she was from this very unprofessional situation. I talked my husband into going with her, in hopes that he would pass the test, when they got into the car, the first thing she asked him was where he was from (he has a thick accent, her follow up question was "are you Muslim" then asked him why he was wearing a cross necklace (i am not sure how this is relevant to the driving test.) After all was said and done he got 30 minutes driving time, and we didn't get a single cent for a discount and she asked him for a tip. A TIP?
