Great class, I haven’t shot a pistol in years and have been seriously considering getting one. So now after listening to the instructors (very knowledgeable) and asking questions in the class and the range. Ive already started shopping around. One other thing I never realized before was the insurance aspect and what could happen with gun ownership. Thanks again.
