What our clients say

"Attended and completed our CHL course with Julianna and John, and we have to say it was a wonderful class. They covered all the basics for licensing and my wife (Madison) looks forward to shooting with "a girl and a gun" club, as well as I eventually joining some sort of guy club. Madison also looks forward to customizing her Glock, THANK YOU GUYS A BUNCH, AWESOME PEOPLE!!!!"

"John and Julianna are the best. The range and the class were run in a very professional way. If you are apprehensive at all about taking this class don't be. I was a renewal and if I had known about them the first go round I would taken my initial CHL with them. Hope to see them on my next renewal. I have numerous friends with CHLs; I will recommend you to them for their next class. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!!!"
