    Calling your local Sheriff's Dept. is a good bet. In fact a lot of cops offer free training. They usually have a waiting time due to it's popularity. If they charge? It would be much less than average schools. Knowing cop's is good, you can never know to many...lol

    You might want to expand your training area outside of Phila... Ayoub I think still does a class once a year in Harrisburg.

    If you are willing to travel a little to get the best training that you can get... Check out classes from Larry Vickers, Magpul or Pat Rogers from EAG.

    What training have you already mastered and what do you want to learn?

    How patient are you in terms of the amount of time you want to invest in learning how to shoot and learning how to fight?

    Smile Re: Handgun Training Classes

    I have had my whole family,including me trained at Pistol People. Steve is knowledgeable, personable and most important patient. He will teach you everything you need to know. He literally wrote the book on handguns. He is certified and his rates are reasonable. Call 215-245-SAFE. You can check his web site at www.pistolpeople.com. Tell him I sent you.
