Chuck was an amazing instructor. I had previously shot a few times before but never really knew the basic understandings. I could never get the bullseye on a target. Now I am extremely confident with shooting a gun and can hit the bullseye multiple times. Thank you Chuck for your time. You are amazing.
Well thought out process for CPL, welcoming and well trained. Even the system that helps you get an appointment with county clerk. Got my appointment from 2 months away to 13 days. Overall trustworthy and professional.
