Very smooth and easy learning class. What I liked most was that they broke everything down very easy for you to understand and they answered all questions. They really do care about every single person in the class. It was really fun too. I learned a lot from this course. Definitely recommend! 
Great introductory class to the basics on firearms and your rights in Florida! Kyle was our instructor and the whole class was laughing and engaged the entire time! Very informative, wish there would have been more hands on but for a basic class and cheap price it was right on point! Highly recommended for first timers.
Awesome class! Ricky was a great instructor, very knowledgeable and focused on explaining the different concepts to the class. Highly recommend!
Peggy was our certified instructor and was very clear and informed. I learned a lot of things that were very important to the safety, legalities , and some hands on situations for handling firearms correctly.
I would recommend this class to my family and friends.
The class was very responsive, and participation from all students. With a wide variety of employments.
It went by fast but the amount covered in the short time was very informative.
Thanks Peggy
Great experience! I learned so much and had fun while doing it. J.T Williams was an awesome instructor! As a new FL resident, I feel well informed and much more prepared to handle a firearm.

Loved the class - the instructor was great and funny - I really learned a lot and I feel much better now -
