I'm sure I am not the only one, I would like to see som training offered in northeast PA. There are soe great trainings listed hear but I live in Wilkes Barre and it isn't practical for me to drive 5-6 hrs to take an 8 hr class and then come home. Unfortunatly, my schedule and my budget dont allow me to fly or stay several days in Pittsburg. I cant even find any NRA classes close to home.

THANKS FOR READING

If you guys can get 10 to 12 people to commit to attending a class, many instructors will come to you if you can find a gun club willing to host the course.

Count me in on the training in NE PA. I am just north of Montrose and work every other weekend so time is an issue for me too.
