Handgun classes

[Dcav]

Anyone know of a good instructor in the SA area? Took an excellent class from Longtooth (board member) and looking for more training.

Took my CHL from these guys CHL - Texas concealed handgun classes in San Antonio and South Texas | LoneStar Handgun Very knowledgeable, and they offer a variety of classes. Worth checking out.

I would recommend Kevin Gentry. Wife and I took a class that I thought was very good and he has advanced training as well.

Pretty happy with Staying Alive here in SA. Mike is a pretty good instructor.

I liked the magpul Art of the tactical handgun video.

I was impressed with their carbine DVD and learned a lot from it. Not everybody can learn effectively from a video, though. There are three ways to learn something, and some people require more than one - reading or lecture, demonstration and personal experience (IE: doing it yourself). A good class will involve all three to make sure that everybody picks up what they need.

Hey, what exactly do you want to work on, Dcav? I know some stuff... Actually, I've been thinking about getting certified as an NRA Instructor to start teaching for some extra cash. I've taught enough people at this point I should probably start charging. But if I can help you out, I'll do it free.

I'm following this post as well...

My wife and I are both CHL holders we took our class with Ron Lotz good guy.. of course the CHL is not really a class about defensive shooting but law and your rights in Texas as a CHL holder. We hit the Bass Pro range about once a week sometimes twice a week.

As stated above I'm following this thread because I'd like to take my training to the next level.

So I'd like to see the recommendations that come on this thread.
Right now I'd like to learn about using the pistol in a home defense situation and low light (anyone know who/where classes like this are taught.)

Eventually, I'm interested in possibly eventually becoming an NRA instructor (Wife and I are both teachers...teaching is in our blood). I've helped a few female co-teachers of mine with basic shooting and gun handling and really liked teaching that a lot. I so if anyone knows some good affordable NRA classes let me know... I haven't even officially taken the gun safety class..I guess that is step #1.

Anyone else have any experience with Gun Training San Antonio? I like that they have very small groups or individual training available. I'm interested in their defensive handgun class to begin with.

Thanks, T

You'd be suprised how little soldiers train with handguns.
