… An NRA Basic Pistol Shooting course was just what we needed.

You should have seen their faces when I was hitting the bullseye at 15 yards and they were all over the paper.

Brandon

The thing I liked about the class was the hands-on training and shooting. Thank you Devin, it was a great experience.

Albert

Excellent course that everyone should take, from an excellent and knowledgeable instructor.

Allex

I have been shooting pistols for about 30 years. [Liberty Defense was] able to identify the bad habits I have developed and help me to overcome them.

Eric

The basic pistol course was a fantastic value without a doubt.

Bobb

Very, very good class and instructor. Good and positive atmosphere and attitude.

More than I expected. Even before the actual shooting it was explained why I was not consistently hitting the target. It causes me to want to shoot correctly every time.

Lynn

I was surprised at how much I learned, even though I have been shooting for years.

Bobb

Devin is an excellent instructor. He explained the need for safety as the first priority and continued to emphasize safety throughout the class. He has an excellent knowledge of firearms, their components, and applications.

Loved it! A lot of very good information combined with hands on. I feel very comfortable that I could safely own a pistol and that makes me feel great about living on my own.
