Concealed Carry Survival Guide

I just finished with your latest Concealed Carry manual. This is a most excellent text for the armed civilian. It covers all the bases in an easy to read style.

Basic Recreational Handgun

I took your basic handgun course March 29, and wanted to compliment you on a great course. I’ve shot rifles and shotguns all my life so knew the basics, but am new to handguns.
