“Very interesting class in which we learned the basic and necessary safety rule of handling a gun. We were then allowed to shoot in the indoor range with the supervision of our instructor. I would highly recommend this class to anyone who wants to feel more comfortable and/or confident with a small firearm.”

“My wife and I took the First Shots course taught by Tom Quello. It was very informative and Tom was ready to answer any questions we had. I highly recommend signing up if you are new to handguns or just need a refresher.”
