Five stars for We the People Firearms Training Academy. I took the Advanced Concealed Carry Training course on 11/09/24. Our instructor Joe really made me feel comfortable throughout the day. He is highly trained and experienced from his time in the military. This course is absolutely a step up from going to the range on a Wednesday night and shooting paper targets. We did many drills for drawing and firing, reloading, dealing with misfires, shooting while moving, proper grip, stance, and a lot of other info. The range is outdoors and a great place to train. I look forward to training with Joe again. Thanks again for a great experience.
