- All firearms training classes include real, live-fire range training with the minimum of 50 rounds of ammunition fired during any basic pistol course and up to 200 rounds fired during the advance DEFENSIVE PISTOL COURSE. Unlike other providers who have their students fire one round into a steel can, a bucket of sand or 5 shots fired at a paper target on an indoor range.
- Our live-fire training is conducted on a state-of-the-art, climate controlled, indoor gun range. No heat. No sweating. No cold. No rain. No bugs. Classes are never cancelled due to weather conditions.

- We do not require fingerprinting or a background check prior to class participation. Nor do we maintain a computer data base on our students.
Our range: climate controlled, indoor range, with a state-of-the-art, electronically controlled and fully automated target system. There is no standing in the heat, the cold or the rain behind blue plastic barrels, shooting at stationary targets stapled to wooden frames.
