Just completed the "Womens" Introduction to Defensive Handgun course. Highly recommend this course for anyone who is,... or would like to utilize a handgun for self-defense (they offer it non-gender specific too!). This introductory level, but I would recommend it for anyone - you get a nice base of fundamentals to build from and walk away feeling more confident with your weapon of choice. Very much enjoyed it and learned much, including I need a different gun. Thank you to Christopher Sullivan for running a safe, top-notch class.read more

I highly recommend taking a course with this instructor. I walked out of the course with more information than I... anticipated but also confident with what was shown. Not once did I feel uncomfortable during the course. If you are second guessing yourself on going - do it, it is definitely worth the lesson.read more

I took Chris and Jenny’s CCW class. I was actually really nervous first of all to bee back in a classroom setting and... testing after 30 years, but then also nervous to shoot to pass the class. They were such great teachers and had so much patience with everyone that I wasn’t nervous at all once I got into the class. I feel much more knowledgeable and safe to carry a gun now, thanks to you both. Thank you for being such an excellent teacher Chris!read more

Hands down the best course I have ever taken, and not just gun wise. I not only learned a lot about the material wich... was presented in an easy to understand manor, but I had a ton of fun and and learned a lot about myself as a person too. Chris and Jenny are great instructors and even better people. I recommend this class to anyone just getting started shooting or even the most experienced marksman.read more
