I know guys that gave their clips to other guys and they would shoot across aisles to get the other guys target "sharpshooter" status cuz he sucked so bad. LOL All the while they sat there pretending to shoot. Might kept a bullet or two to a least look like they are shooting at something.

I have not taken a real course besides military, hunter's safety course (pellet gun), and good ole grandpa lessens for many years. I really want to actually. I had my ccw in Washington State but they didn't require the class if you were active military. If MD ever gets off their high horse and lets that CCW slip thru I will take whatever classes they require to get that.

I Have taken several, two in Dallas and about half dozen in Houston. Helped teach one as well. I have taken rifle and pistol classes both. Honestly there's only two I'd recommend. The others are way overpriced IMO.

I also teach marksmanship at those little get togethers I sent you the email about Nonnie

I would like to take an advanced weapons course like that. Of course I have had hunters safety as a boy in MS and the class required for CCW in FL but those only provide basic safety/operation education. $750 doesn't seem too bad for 3days with 400rds/day provided.

If ammo is included in that price that's not terrible. All the classes I've taken the ammo is separate.
