I just wanted to let you know you guys gave an amazing Use of Force class last night. It was very informative and there was great interaction between the students and the instructors. Your staff is fantastic !!!!! This was my third class with you guys plan to do more, well worth it !!!!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this Use of Force class. I felt it was informative and inclusive. I was the only woman in this class yet I felt included and extremely comfortable with the participants. The engaging instructors and easy-to-understand dialogue make this a training course I would recommend for any level pistol owner. I am currently a novice but can easily reach an expert level with the professional staff at Gun for Hire! Great job!
Last night I attended the first Use of Force class offered at Gun For Hire and have to say it fulfilled my expectations completely. Vlad, Musy and James presented the material in a direct comprehensive manner covering everything from the sanctity of life, to cover and concealment and everything in between. They answered all questions that were presented to them by the class, often expanding on them offering different scenarios and perspectives. This class brakes down the stereotype ideas about carrying a firearm and expressed how important it is to know how the law interprets actions and how the decisions we may have to make could directly effect us. This class coupled with the Holster Draw class I took Sunday gave me a whole new perspective and appreciation for carrying a firearm. Everyone considering carrying should make it a priority to attend these classes. Thank you and your team for sharing your knowledge and experience with the public.
