Quote From A arizona private family Client

Thank you Guy, really!”

Quote From A private lady Client

“Best Experience Ever Of Firearm Training… As A Woman With No Background In Use Or Handling Of Firearms, Guy Eased A Lot Of My Concerns And Fears In Just The First Few Minutes Of Training. He Is Very Easy Going And Patient, And Made Me Feel Comfortable As A Complete Newbie. I Had A Lot Of Questions, None Were Made To Seem Stupid To Ask. There Was A Lot Of Information But Not Overwhelming. Having Been To Other Classes With Different Trainers, My Experience Was Negative Because They Were Not Very Patient Or Willing To Take The Time To Teach On An Individual Basis. The Classes Were Large And Their Teaching Was More Of Them Talking About All Of Their Accomplishments. This Is Where Guy Differs, Though He Has Had Years Of Extensive Training And Experience, His Focus Is Teaching You How To Handle A Firearm And Being Safe. Thanks For The Training Guy, I Look Forward To Learning And Practicing More.”

Quote From A Washington State Firefighter Union Client

“With Only A 2 Day Notice, We Asked Guy To Teach A Course To Over 160 Firefighters And Their Families, To Attain Several Multi-State CCW Permits. Guy Showed Up With All Of The Curriculum, Bad Jokes And Applications We Needed To Make It Happen. He Is A True Professional And Treated Us All Like We Are Family. Thanks Brother”
