Nathanael Chang, Engineer

I just came home from the Four Day Defensive Handgun training, and in short, I am blown away by everything. The instruction was top notch, the facilities were great, the staff was professional and personable, the lectures opened my eye, the drills, simulations, steel shoot, hostage targets... all really helped. This course is rational and reality based, and touches on moral, ethical, legal, tactical and emotional issues. It is not a bunch of gun nuts just learning to shoot better, but the course emphasizes how to avoid gun fights through situational awareness and understanding that you only use the gun when you need to defend your life. Thank you so much!

Graham Hambleton, Assistant Chief Engineer

I have just arrived back at work after getting the opportunity to experience Front Sight's 2-Day Defensive Handgun Training. All I can say is, "Wow!" I came in to the experience a little apprehensive and slightly audacious. I was hoping it would be more than a bunch of hicks shooting rusted-out cars in the Nevada desert. I was so-very-wrong in even letting that thought cross my mind. Literally, from the gate, the staff at the facility impressed me with their professionalism, knowledge, and talent. While being stern in their guidance, they could put me at ease on the firing line. They followed procedures to the letter while still having fun with the guests. They each presented themselves and the training in a way that gave me the utmost confidence in my ability to improve the way I handle a weapon. I must mention that I also cannot wait to teach what I have learned to my son so he can start out his shooting experience properly, professionally, and safely. Thank you for your time and effort.

Dick Eastley, Software Product Engineer

Front Sight will get you better each day; you'll become safe, competent, and ready to defend yourself and family.

Every young woman will be better off attending the course prior to heading off to college. 'Even if they don't plan to have a firearm."

Anyone who considers owning a gun for self-defense needs to take this training. Putting holes in paper at the range is only 10 percent of the task. Front Sight teaches the other 90 percent.

J. Martin M.D.

My second course - just as good as the first! It was expert instruction, which is invaluable.

Front Sight fosters a positive view of fun ownership and responsibility.

Anyone who has or wants to own a firearm should become familiar with its function and proper use. Front Sight is one of the best ways to accomplish this goal.

Greg McClain

Front Sight trains you for real world scenarios, not target shooting. You don't know how much you don't know until you attend a course. Everyone who owns a gun should at least attend a 2-day course.

Paul Hughes, Sales/Construction

If you are serious and desire to be competent, go to Front Sight. They have safe, excellent training and a friendly staff.

Charles Ebeling, Security/Tech Writer

Front Sight is a great place to take a loved one for a professional, safe introduction to firearms training.

If you have a handgun in your house for protection, you absolutely need this course!

Bob Rieyer

If you or a family member owns a firearm, you owe it to yourself and your family to take a class at Front Sight.

Paul Campbell

They stay on theme with a passion - no deviation from true devotion to Front Sight and its Second Amendment message. This is the highest level of training I have ever taken, including pilot, scuba, and driving training.

Hunter Elkins, Ad Agency Owner

Owning a firearm is a guaranteed right, learning to use it properly is a moral obligation. Front Sight helps guarantee the Second Amendment and provides the best training anywhere to guarantee you are up to the responsibility of owning a firearm.

Joseph Conti, Carpenter

It was the most fun I have had in a long time. I learned a lot and feel very confident in my handgun handling because of what I learned here at Front Sight.

Fred Mastison, Martial Arts Instructor

There are few places on earth that are sincerely driven to excellence. Front Sight is one of those places. The confidence to effectively shoot to protect has been by my time here. Thank you for serving.

Darrell Wyatt, Realtor

It is an industry leader and, after attending a single course there, I wouldn't recommend any other school. It is top-rate training and some of the best instructors I have ever worked with.

Christopher

If you are seriously interested in acquiring proper weapon control, shooting skills, and professional-level gun skills - this is the place to train.

J. M. O'keefe

Whatever your current skill level, Front Sight will build upon it, correct bad habits and create good ones to increase your comfort and proficiency with a variety of weapons.

T. A. Demosthenes, Pilot/Consultant

Juan Patino, Engineer

I have a better understanding of firearms, what firearms do, and how to operate a firearm safely, reliably, and effectively.

I would recommend this experience to everyone. I have been a victim in my lifetime and once is enough. I feel confident that I will not ever be a victim again.

John Bentley

The professionalism and caring attitude of the staff are what makes Front Sight such a great place.

Cope Reynolds, Sporting Goods

No better training can be found. The instructors are among the most professional, courteous, and proficient in any field.

Steve Knezovich, Technician

Learn what will happen if they choose to use deadly force and if that is their choice, choose wisely and execute what they have been taught.

Bob Graf, Mediacl Technologist

Best firearms training I've ever received! I've been handling and shooting guns for over 30 years and this is the best group of professionals I've ever trained with. You learn more in one day than most people will learn in a life time. They teach you what other courses don't! They are, by far, the best group of people I've ever worked with.

Jordan Green, Telephone Tech.

The instructors are awesome, and all know tons. Even the lectures are sweet! The most fun you can ever have with a firearm!!

Craig Deihl, MD

Top notch instruction without intimidation. I would recommend it to anyone.

John Wehner

The precision of the training exponentially helped my pistol shooting. I'll be back soon for more training.

Larry Williams, Supervisor

I would want all of my loved ones to have the same improved chances of "coming home" (surviving a lethal encounter) as I now have. They should also have the same understanding of the consequences of using this training, which was brought well into focus at Front Sight.

Brandon Moore, Security

Great for the Beginner as well as the guy who thinks he has it all down pat.

James Fanning, Retired Engineer

Learn the skills to protect yourself and family, and help preserve the American way of life, as our founders meant it to be.

James E. Morse, DDS

It is intense, busy, and fast paced - no sleeping thru it. I would recommend the 2 day for someone with little experience with a handgun. The 4 day is better suited for those with more range time, but be prepared to unlearn some bad habits! There are a variety of handguns available (with all necessary equipment) for rental for the courses. Of course, you can take your own also. I highly recommend Front Sight, as I would recommend everyone furthering their education with handguns. Would I take the course again? We are already planning on it, as well as for our daughters.

Michael Brickman, Firefighter

You will never need to be in fear of any situation - ever again. You will have the skills and confidence to defend your family and yourself against any mortal threat.

Staci M Reed, Office Manager

I just took the 2-day handgun class. I have to say it was the best thing I ever did. I have never held a gun in my life, but my instructors and my range master went through everything step by step. I am now interested in taking more classes and continuing my education in handgun training. Everyone at Front Sight is veryprofessional and highly trained. They just make you feel so at ease thatthe nerves disappeared. I would recommend Front Sight to everyone andanyone who is interested in protecting themselves and their loved ones.It was the BEST.

Michael D. Allum, Commander Public Safety/Security

Everyone is a potential victim of a criminal attack. Training can help deal with situations that may arise. Front Sight is the best place with the best training in the greatest variety of disciplines.

Bob Ingersoll

The two-day Defensive Handgun course I completed was better that any course I'd ever taken during my 18 years as a Police Officer. The instructor to student ratio was outstanding. I hope to attend more courses in the near future. Keep up the good work!!!

Dr. Rick Martin

I had no idea I needed so much help.

Chris Huntley, Biologist

In the edged weapons course, I learned more solid, real-world defensive knife techniques than I learned while earning MY black belt.

Dr. Lynn L'Abbe

As a lady, I have so much more self-assurance and confidence handling a handgun...Learning the color-code was worth the trip.

Anthony M. Buhn, Paramedic

Front Sight's Rope Course rocks!

If you were limited to only one course in life, take that course at Front Sight!

Be responsible for yourself and your family. Prepare and train, and hope you'll never need to use it.

John Shaw, Minister

Very carefully prepared course of safety and self-defense that covers moral, ethical, and legal ramifications of defensive handgun training.

Ed Hawkins, Network Computer Technician

As an Infantry soldier deployed in support of Air Force operations and security in the Persian Gulf, I did not receive this level of training on the weapon systems I was deployed with. This has been the most effective firearms training I've ever received.

Stephen J. Solyom, USPS Carrier, Retired

You only get one life, learn to protect it!

Stephen Boyer, Airline Captain

The course far exceeded my expectations, and my skills improved dramatically.

John Carpenter, Sales Management/Author

I attended my first course at Front Sight in June 1994. I'd heard about Front Sight and it sounded like something I'd enjoy. During that first course I quickly came to appreciate the professionalism and expertise of the instructors and staff at Front Sight. After the first day I was hooked and purchased a membership. The next month I brought my wife to Front Sight and after one day she too became a member. Since then we have taken several courses and introduced our friends and family to Front Sight. We love spending time and learning together. Not only has Front Sight improved our confidence and skill at arms, it has given us quality time together that years of business travel took away. Front Sight is the real deal and will improve your life.

Shannon Long, Fireman/Paramedic

This class will save your life.

Mike Workman, Teacher

Our instructors were the best in working with all ages and abilities. This is a great course for anyone in need of protection but unable or unwilling to use a firearm.

Brian Beal, Farmer

Front Sight delivered over and above what they advertised.

Greg Guillermo, Engineer

Front Sight delivers on everything they state in their advertising. All of the testimonials I've ever read about Front Sight are true!

Rob Oates, IT Analyst

Fantastic! Exactly as promised and then some. My words can barely do justice to what Front Sight offers. You have to see the facility and attend a class to fully appreciate its value.

Gary Taylor, Airline Pilot

Front Sight is the only place to train. Period!!!

Adamm Liley, Filmmaker

Perfect - come to Front Sight for a safer America.

John L. Zumrick, Anesthesiology

Without a doubt the best organized, efficient, and safe courses I have ever attended producing exceptional educated students.

The Front Sight instructors are great! They treat you with positive reinforcement constantly. I totally loved this course and it gave me great pride to be one of the students.

Eugene S. Corl, Demolition

Uniformity of instruction at Front Sight surpasses any other course I have ever taken. Front Sight offers the maximum amount of information that improves any skill level in the shortest amount of time.

William Morrow, Software Engineer

Front Sight has been one of the few events in my life that I can definitely state, 'I am a different person because of this.' I have gone from being vaguely afraid of firearms to having a respect for them and also understanding what is required to use them responsibly with forethought of consequence. Front Sight will change your outlook on the gun control debate.

Dennis Wong, Dentist

Best practical training available for regular people.

Dr. John J. Rusek, Propulsion Scientist

Front Sight gives one an exceptional view of the balance of the morals and ethics of deadly force with the practicality of shooting in a real environment. I would encourage all people who cherish freedom to take part in the opportunities at Front Sight.

Nancy Speer, Teacher

The Front Sight course was great fun. I learned the correct way to handle a gun, both for target shooting and when there is a need to use a gun in extreme circumstances. I now feel I could better handle a fight if necessary. Front Sight is a great confidence builder.

Julie Aliconar, Commercial Title Officer

When Front Sight said they can guarantee improvement, I had to see it to believe it. The class made me realize how much I did not know about handling a firearm in a confrontational situation. I am so much better and much more confident now, after taking the class. Front Sight came through for me and they will come through for you.

R. Lee Vaughn, Engineering Dept. Manager

Front Sight is very professionally presented. All students are treated with respect by all the instructors. There is ample time to ask questions. The staff is genuinely concerned with helping students. Your actions are observed and analyzed to aid in the learning process. Most importantly, the use of positive reinforcement as a teaching method is fantastic!

Dave Lesley, Self Employed

This course far exceeds any training I had in my law enforcement career of 20 years. This is a comprehensive, very safe, and responsible course of instruction for all types of handguns.

Scott Preston, Computer Network Engineer

Front Sight is the answer to the ignorance of firearms that is prevalent in our society. Front Sight is the greatest champion for the truth about guns, the Second Amendment, and self defense that we have today.

Wayne Higgins, Airline Pilot

If you are going to own a weapon, learn how to use it. You need to go to Front Sight.

Lindsay Reese, Production Associate

You need to attend a course at Front Sight. Your life may depend on it. If you think you know how to shoot - you're in for a big surprise!

Andrew Lee, Law School Graduate Student

Front Sight's Defensive Handgun Course is by far the best firearms training course I have ever taken. The teaching staff is extremely impressive and the one-on-one time is incredible. The facility is first rate and the course has definitely convinced this skeptic.

Ron Walden, Machinist

After my course at Front Sight I feel 100 times more confident about handling my pistol should I need to use it in a life threatening situation.

Gary L. Minner, Painting Contractor

You have no idea what you're missing, or what you don't know, until you attend a class.

Alexander Johansen, Aviation Maintenance Tech

If you want to learn how to handle firearms to defend your life and the lives of your family members, this is the place to be.

Richard Roadell, System Process Engineer

An excellent means of learning - at all levels. I'm coming back over and over to build skills - and I get significantly better and more confident with every course.

Lyle Benjamin, Farmer

I brought my wife to Practical Rifle this week. She came in as a non-shooter and was taken from discouraged on the first day to very happy and successful on the fourth day. Her comment to me was "This was fun! Your AR-15 is now mine!" My hat is off to the Front Sight Rifle Instructors who made this possible. Thanks guys!!

Daniel C. Palmer, University Professor

This is a course that is an excellent value for the money, professionally done, and really helped me understand the capabilities of my rifle.

Brian Lloyd, Computer Network Architect

This is the most comprehensive and complete handgun training I have ever attended and I have attended several.

Nathan Finke, Tire Sales

The professionalism of all the instructors is world-class. I would recommend this institute to everyone who owns a firearm and everyone who does not.

Tom Clarke

If someone has any intention of owning a handgun, the Front Sight experience is infinitely important. You will learn not only gun handling, but also the implications of using that weapon.

Danglong Tran, Transportation Engineer

You need to learn how to use a gun, the proper way, the first time.

Ken Gillett, Real Estate Sales

My only experience with weapons training has been with Front Sight. I recently watched (at the request of the range manager) a local training course. I then realized how great Front Sight really is. The very low student to instructor ratio makes sure you get the training you paid for and no one gets left behind. I can't say enough about the quality and qualifications of the instructors. Front Sight is world-class and I'm proud to be a First Family Member.

Jamie Bell, Telecom Engineer

Now that I have the no-nonsense news about what it takes physically, mentally, and emotionally to be prepared to use a gun in self-defense (which includes avoiding the use of the gun in the first place), I will be going to Front Sight every year just to stay sharp. When I finished the 4-Day Defensive Handgun course, signing up for a First Family Membership was a no-brainer. It is an eye-opening and extremely rewarding program. I would strongly recommend it truly for anyone - any skill level, any side of the gun issue.

Jim Lefty USN (ret.), Software Engineer

I have been involved with firearms for over 35 years. I have been to numerous classes and training facilities, I even instruct new shooters. I figured that there wasn't anything more someone else could teach me that I already didn't know. A friend gave me a Blue Certificate almost two years ago to attend a course. I never went because I was skeptical of Front Sight. Earlier this year, my good friend passed away and as a tribute to him, some of his other friends and I went to Front Sight for the Four Day Practical Rifle Course. Suffice it to say, that I went to Front Sight as a skeptic and came home a believer. I became a believer in their abilities to teach and their philosophies. I have learned a lot about rifles and shooting that I didn't know before. This was truly a very special gift my friend had given me. I cannot thank my dear friend enough for the FREE chance to experience Front Sight and I cannot thank Dr. Piazza and all of his instructors for the great job they are doing.

Howard Foss, Surveyor

I am currently attending the orange county sheriff's training academy at the level 3 position. During the range portion of the training the instructors were quite flabbergasted that I could clear a Type 3 malfunction in just under 4 seconds, from the ready. They were quite interested in my lightning speed to their command "on target". I just said, "Dry practice."

Bob Ingersoll, Private Investigator / Martial Arts Instructor

The two-day Defensive Handgun course I completed was better than any course I'd ever taken during my 18 years as a Police Officer. The instructor to student ratio was outstanding. I hope to attend more courses in the near future. Keep up the good work!!!

Joel A. Hendelman, Battalion Chief/Fairfax City Fire Dept.

Served as an Arson investigator for my Department for 5 years. I have attended a dozen gun safety courses and regional police academy. I have never, I repeat never, learned, performed and improved my knowledge and skills more efficiently while being at Front Sight. The instructors are top and the motivation and encouragement can not be matched anywhere. I am humbled by the exceptional work being accomplished at Front Sight. These guys are going to shift the popular vote regarding gun ownership within this country in the next decade!

Peter DeLeew, Retired

Training is a must in the reality of today's world. Few places offer the range of training that Front Sight does. Anyone who owns a gun and thinks they may need to use it should come here.

Peter M. Juknelis, Vice President of Maryland Law Enforcement Officers, Inc.

Dear Front Sight Resort, Back in April, my entire family came to Front Sight for our vacation. My parents, my two brothers, my sister-in-law, my wife, my three children, and I had the greatest vacation we've EVER had! My brother and his wife, who are First Family members, gave us certificates as gifts. I've had over seven years of law enforcement firearms training through my job with the Maryland Division of Correction. I came to Front Sight with the hopes of honing the shooting skills that I already had. What an awakening! I found that "I didn't know what I didn't know". In just two days, I watched years of bad habits be replaced with sharp, deliberate actions which had indisputable results. Front Sight should set the standard for ALL law enforcement training. My wife and seventeen-year-old stepson, who have had very limited exposure to firearms, came to Front Sight as "clean slates". Unlike myself, they had no bad habits to undo. They came completely open-minded. The results left me speechless (and a little bit envious). In two days, they were placing precision shots on the targets. AMAZING! My fourteen-year-old stepdaughter and my six-year-old son opted for the 2-day youth safety and 2-day children's safety courses. Once again, Front Sight left me astounded. Your incredible youth training staff gave my children the knowledge, skills, and confidence to do things that I never would have dreamed they'd do. When I watched my reserved six-year-old son be hoisted to the top of the rope swing, before he released himself into a swinging free-fall, I was the proudest dad alive! I couldn't have talked him into that for a million bucks! I've never seen a bigger smile on his face, or a deeper sense of pride in him, ever. About a week after we returned home, he was at his swimming lesson, and was asked to jump from the diving board for the first time. He did it with ease. When he got home that night, he called my mom, who also attended Front Sight, to tell her the news. My mom asked him, "Weren't you afraid?" He laughed and said, "C'mon, Gram, I'm Front Sight trained!" As for my step daughter, she had an absolute blast. The courses challenged her to push herself both mentally and physically, all while having a fantastic time. I asked her to tell me whether or not the course was worth the cost. Without hesitation, she said, "Without a doubt!" You should have heard her raving about Front Sight to her friends. She wants to come back and take the advanced ropes course next. I have only two regrets about my trip to Front Sight. First, I wish that I had taken the 4-day defensive handgun course instead of the 2-day. Second, I wish that I had gotten to meet Front Sight's Founder and Director, Dr. Ignatius Piazza. Maybe next time. I can't say enough about Front Sight's programs, training staff, members, or facilities. I haven't shut up about the place since I've been home. Front Sight must be experienced to be believed! It is the ULTIMATE family vacation destination. My family and I can't wait to go again. We shall return! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!! Sincerely, Peter M. Juknelis Vice President Maryland Law Enforcement Officers, Inc.

Steven Knopf, Welding Contractor

I believe it is impossible to complete a Front Sight training course and not leave a better weaponscraft person than when you arrived. Thanks for keeping your guarantee.

David Kernan, Information Systems

Incredibly patient and sincere instructors. They really want to help and went the extra mile for all students. I have been shooting rifles for 25 years and I now know twice as much as I did when I walked into the class on the first morning.

Dennis Murphy, Banker

The level of professionalism and competence at Front Sight will surprise and delight you. It is truly an opportunity that must be experienced.

Mike Hrobuchak, Airline Pilot

As I have attended two other well known schools, I would have to say that Front Sight is the best firearms school I have attended.

Alan Smith, Engineer

Front Sight has the finest instructors and the finest curriculum of any firearms training I have ever taken.

Sean Rosenberg, Attorney

You'll gain a wealth of knowledge at Front Sight. I do not know of any other civilian training of this kind. The facility is amazing.

Andrew Juknelis, Director of Operations, Curon Medical Inc.

I graduated from West Point and was commissioned as an Infantry officer in 1988. I graduated from the US Army Ranger School and am a combat veteran having served with the 7th Infantry during Operation Just Cause in Panama. As a civilian, I am an NRA instructor of Rifle, Pistol, Shotgun, and Personal Protection. I shoot weekly in a local pistol league. In other words, I thought I knew my stuff when I showed up last week at Front Sight for their one day submachine gun and two day defensive handgun courses. In just three days of training at Front Sight I learned more than I would have imagined possible! I had no idea that I still had so much room to grow. This is the best training I have ever had, bar none and it was fun!

Lief Rutzebeck, Computer Analyst

The instructors at Front Sight were fabulous. Their patience throughout the two-day course was remarked on by several people I talked with. I personally learned more during this two-day course than during the last twenty years of shooting combined. It was a great experience.

Roger Phillips, Automotive Refinisher

When Front Sight says that their training far exceeds that of law enforcement, that is not just talk. I have shot next to many police officers and their skills are not what they should be. But with an open mind and some effort these same police officers are soon shooting at much higher levels, and have a much better chance of winning a gunfight.

Thomas A. Peppler, Attorney

As all of the veterans attending the course at Front Sight seem to agree, it is the best training available today. I fully support Dr. Piazza's strategy to restore gun ownership to its rightful place in American society.

Kevin Jensen, Race Car Fabricator

I received better training on automatic weapons at Front Sight's free one-day submachine gun course than I did in the US Army.

Charlene Aliangan, Flight Attendant

I had a wonderful experience at Front Sight. I never would have dreamed of shooting a submachine gun in my lifetime. If I can do this course, have fun, and no longer be afraid of guns, then so can you.

Jerry Jones, Webmaster at Walt Disney World

I can't say enough about Front Sight instructors. They are friendly, patient, well trained, and make sure safety is #1. I already called two of my friends to rave about your course and facilities. We all plan to come back and take the four day handgun class and more.

Mike Manginill, Retired

Front Sight's instructors are not only knowledgeable, but seek to share their knowledge. I just took the Gunsite 250 course. After attending the free, one day submachine gun course I am more impressed with Front Sight staff's attentiveness to their students.

Richard Fong, Stock Broker

Front Sight instructors are without a doubt, top notch. They improved my technique incredibly.

John Vincent, Mechanical Engineer

Of all the schools and seminars I've attended, Front Sight is the most professional and hardest working. I have and will continue to recommend Front Sight to my friends.

Steve Campbell, Training Supervisor

I have seen many firearms instructors, but the crew at Front Sight really know their stuff. They can handle the newest student to the old hand that thinks he knows everything.

Clifford Nagle, Plumber

Front Sight is the most professional instruction in firearms that I have come across in my twenty years of shooting. Front Sight is the best and I am coming back.

Greg Hahn, Sheet Metal Worker

I've been involved in many courses. Most schools I have attended treat their classes as a job; not anywhere near the passion and dedication to excellence that I experienced at Front Sight.

Eddie Ray Lee, Professor

I have taken several one day, two day, and week long courses in my life. Front Sight's course is the best organized and presented. Front Sight should teach teachers how to teach!

Todd Vierheller, Software Engineer

The teacher to student ratio at Front Sight is phenomenal and allows instruction to be tailored to the individual's level. The instruction on the shooting aftermath was the most thorough I have ever experienced at any training course. In addition, other schools would have difficulty even coming close to delivering Front Sight training no matter how good their instructors simply due to Front Sight's incredible facilities.

David Osborn, Jr., Paramedic

Front Sight is a real eye opener if you are a CCW holder and plan to carry a concealed weapon to protect yourself. Front Sight is without hesitation the best training and a must if you want to do it right.

Jim Sarkauskas, Registered Financial Advisor

I learned more about handgunning in four days at Front Sight than in the past 50 years!

Michael Wrage, Real Estate Agent

Front Sight is the best class I have attended in years. I wish I could encounter the caliber of people I met at Front Sight in my other business and personal dealings.

John Moses, Publisher

If you own a weapon, there is no better place to learn how to use it than Front Sight!

Ernest Peltz, Mechanic

I have learned so much and have so much more to learn. It is a shame the rest of the business world does not provide the same level of service I received at Front Sight this week.

Dennis Hankey, Investments

Front Sight provides comprehensive, encompassing training on important issues not normally given any consideration or addressed with any detail as this school does. Front Sight is the best school I have ever attended in firearms training.

Glenn Frank, Veterinarian

My third course and they keep getting better! I've handled sporting shotguns for 26 years, but learned more about shotguns and shotgun shooting in four days than all those years combined

Art Giddings, Stage Manager

Front Sight is the best place to get training. Front Sight is the school that sets the bar for all other training schools. Good luck to the other schools trying to get over it.

Dennis Bower, Television Production

Front Sight is unequaled in its commitment to excellence. The professionals at Front Sight made us feel welcome, confident, and delivered a course that will make a difference in our lives. Thank you very much for creating a facility that helps us meet the challenges that life puts in our paths.

Al Corea, Fire Inspector

If you really want to learn how to handle a firearm, go to the best teacher you can find. Go to Front Sight if you want the best!

Phillip Vaughan, Warehouse Manager

This class improved my level of skill a thousand percent! I cannot thank everyone involved enough - especially Dr. Piazza. If you think you are proficient enough with your weapon of choice to protect yourself and your loved ones in a heated gun fight, you are wrong! Attend a class at Front Sight and you will become a believer as much as I am.

John Woo, MD

I had a strong appreciation for the instructors at Front Sight, but after taking this course and learning what they do, now I hold them in complete awe and admiration.

David Broberg, Farmer

The training cadre at Front Sight took a very competent target shooter and taught him the complexities of weapons handling that he never dreamed possible. There is much more to defensive shooting than just hitting a bullseye. The leadership, expertise, and patience exhibited by the instructional staff was exemplary.

Tony Wise, Pawnbroker

I did not know how much I did not know about shooting a firearm until I attended Front Sight. I grew up with guns around my house and my father was a police officer and I attended firearm classes at my local range. After Front Sight's course, I realized how inferior and incompetent all of that previous training was. Thank you for helping me become a safe and responsible gun owner.

Richard Ferry, Business Manager

Front Sight presents to the entire nation what the right to self defense means in today's society. I applaud the school and its mission. I hope someday my two children (now ages 7 and 10) will have the opportunity to attend Front Sight's training.

Jeffrey Paley, Engineer

Absolutely the most dedicated and competent bunch of professionals I have ever had the pleasure of training with. Very patient and understanding, yet firm in the commitment to facilitate our learning. I know I am 100% more competent than I was just two days ago. You can put yourself in this course knowing little about firearms and defense and in just two days you will come out of this experience more skilled and confident than 90% of the people who own firearms, not only in the mechanics of defense, but the legal and ethical aspects as well. I highly recommend Front Sight to anyone who wants to walk with power.

Dennis DeChance, Construction Estimator

Trying to explain what a Front Sight class is like is like trying to explain the color blue to someone who has been blind from birth. I can try to explain it, but you can't understand until you have experienced it first hand.

Chess Smythe, Emergency Room Tech

Extremely helpful and friendly staff. I was shooting better after the first day than I have in the eight years of practicing on my own at the range.

Russell Sibell, Laser Engineer

Front Sight is the best organization I have ever dealt with. I will recommend Front Sight to all my family and friends, especially my brother who is a Sheriff's Deputy.

Thomas Wilson, Statistician

I drove 1,100 miles, one-way, to attend this course. The professionalism and knowledge of the courteous staff made this trip well worth my time.

Rev. Michael Mitchell, Ph.D., Minister

This course is the finest training program I could imagine. How Dr. Piazza has assembled and trained such a well disciplined, highly qualified, professional group of instructors is a testament to his skill and leadership. Dr. Piazza is the epitome of a professional leader, business executive, and visionary. May he be most blessed in his endeavors.

John Toomey, Satellite Orbital Analyst

Hard to find the right words. If you are a gun owner, this free submachine gun course must be experienced to be believed! It's like no other shooting experience a civilian can imagine.

Rhonda Lunder, Teacher

Front Sight instructors are awesome! They are encouraging, personable, consistent, professional and courteous. No matter where you start when you arrive, you will improve!

Michelle Martin, Kindergarten Teacher

I had an extraordinary time at the submachine gun course. The instructors were talented, knowledgeable, courteous, and safety conscious. This course is a must, especially for women!

Rick Freeman, Corporate Banking Manager

The four day handgun course is excellent instruction with absolutely first-rate content. I was overwhelmingly impressed with the quality and depth of instructors. Front Sight is the best place to learn how to safely and responsibly handle a weapon.

Ryan Foulkner, Executive Protection Agent

Without a doubt, Front Sight exceeds all other schools I've had both while in the USMC and as a civilian in the protective agent roll. I have never seen a school with such professionalism and purpose. Your dedication to your duties in training each and every student is matched by no others.

Levin Liebeck, Law Student

It must be seen to be believed. And there is no catch, just a great time!

Mich Steinmetz, Mortgage Broker

After 15 years as an FFL licensee, I was amazed at what I did not know. I thought I was a safe gun owner and a fair shot. Front Sight showed me I had a lot to learn and in the last four days I have learned a lot! If you own a gun and want to be competent as well as safe, you need to attend Front Sight!

Mark Mazzella, Stockbroker

The four day handgun course was an excellent class. I expected to get 1/3 the amount of material that the class actually covered. It is amazing how well you can do once you are taught proper techniques. Now, I do not have any doubts about the outcome of a gunfight I might be in. If you intend to own a firearm, it is an absolute must to attend a course at Front Sight. Your life and the lives of your family depend on it.

Maita Castellanes, Office Manager

Front Sight is an awesome place to learn and shoot a submachine gun. The instructors are professional, personable, and patient. I enjoyed it immensely. It is an experience everyone should try.

Terri Kuegel, Registered Nurse

The free submachine gun course was the best firearms class I have ever been to. I can't wait for my next course. I learned more in this one day course that I have in other 2 and 3 day courses.

Glenn Frank, Veterinarian Scientist

Front Sight took me from virtually never pulling a weapon from my holster to feeling quite comfortable in doing so now. If you ever thought about handling a pistol for sport or defensive purposes, you must take a course at Front Sight. It is extremely informative, a dramatic skill builder, and outrageously fun too! I'm not even in the same universe of skills now as compared to four days ago.

Roland Vergeer, Technical Director

Front Sight is top of the line training from professionals who know what it is to be a student. They not only teach you what to do, but also why it is done that way.

Bobbi Bowen, Computer Engineer

To get to the National Team for International Skeet Shooting, I had some of the best coaches in the world. These coaches included former Olympic Gold Medal winners and their coaches. Front Sight's staff are among the best instructors I have ever had the pleasure of working with.

Jeff Ma, Medical Research Technician

I had read others' comments before arriving at Front Sight and I always thought they were exaggerating. Now I know why the comments are so positive!

Bruce J. McSurdy, MD

I flew over 2000 miles to attend this course. Had I known how good it would be, I would have walked, if necessary.

Stephen Eichelberger, Attorney

It was everything I'd heard about it--First Rate Instruction (better than I had in the Marine Corps), all promises kept, and something I'm proud to have been a part of. This is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. You will receive more than you could possibly expect.

Katie Rylant, Veterinarian Technician

Before this class I would not have considered traveling this far (8 hours) to take a gun course. Now, I am definitely interested in returning for another course.

Jason Griffith, Commercial Real Estate Agent

The Four Day Practical Rifle course was outstanding! The best firearms training I have ever had. About the same time I attended Front Sight, my brother-in-law just finished Army Basic Training. Several weeks later, he and I had the opportunity to compare our training and have a shoot-off. My brother-in-law concluded that I received far better training and more advanced tactical training in four days at Front Sight than he did after 14 weeks of Army Basic Training with the M-16. I consistently outshot him with my AR15 at 200 and 300 yards! Thank you Front Sight! I will be back.

Dr. Suzanne Hedden, College Professor

The instructors are true professionals. They were helpful and 100% safety conscious. This is an excellent opportunity to learn about submachine guns. I wholeheartedly endorse this program.

Roger Quinlan, Martial Arts Instructor

A+. Outstanding. Better than I could describe. Very professional. No BS. No Gimmicks. Better than I could have imagined.

Andy Madison, Heavy Equipment Operator

My initial skepticism about the free submachine gun course (you don't get something for nothing, etc.) was alleviated the moment the course started. The course was fun and very informative. With all the impressive credentials of the instructors, I was happily surprised at how helpful and encouraging all of them were. I saw no signs of impatience, conceit or condescending attitudes.

Doug McDonald, Semiconductor Engineer

I would highly recommend the course just to hear Dr. Piazza's presentations alone!

Bernard Dunn, Electrical Mechanic

I have owned handguns since I was 18. I am now 57. I do not have words to describe how little I knew before coming to Front Sight and I did not know that I did not know. Now I know, and can do something about it.

John Earl, Engineer

I am amazed at how small details take on such importance; and Front Sight focuses on the details. I talked with police officers in my class and they were just as impressed as I was. Front Sight is changing the industry!

M. Cameron Jensen, Physician

The training was very personal. It seemed like one-on-one most of the time. The instructors made sure everyone was up to speed so no one was left behind. Dr. Piazza's lectures were extremely informative and dramatically presented invaluable information rarely found elsewhere which is essential to be truly prepared for a real-life, self defense encounter.

Kevin Moore, Airline Employee

I found the course, instructors and overall effort to be of the highest caliber. It is refreshing to see a business effort based on such high principles.

Lee Thomas, Letter Carrier

Everything is experienced as advertised rare in today's marketplace. Dr. Piazza must be considered a visionary and a great patriot.

Frank Bergschneider, Production Manager

Received more training, in such a short amount of time than I would have believed. Great instructors and they made you feel like they really cared about your training even if it was free.

Christopher R. Goggin, Carpenter

Very enlightening and enjoyable! Just one day of instruction and I've learned so much! I can only imagine what a four day course consists of in any of the courses offered. I can't wait to come back!

Travis Clayton, Graduate Student

Very simply, the Front Sight, Free Submachine Gun course is top-notch. You will learn more in one free training day than any number of days at the range. These guys are rock-solid professionals!

Ron Glenn, Glenn Security Systems

If you want to keep The Second Amendment alive, go see the people and the attitude that will make it happen and then spread the word. At the same time have a blast learning to properly handle submachine gun for free!

Ron Welch, Cabinet Maker

This is the most comprehensive day of firearms training I have ever experienced in 35 years of competitive shooting. I thoroughly enjoyed my day at Front Sight. The organization is very professional and the instructors are the best I have seen in one group.

Carol English, Real Estate Agent

I figured we would sit through a huge real estate presentation, then up to the firing line for a quick demo on the gun and a few short bursts on full auto. Instead, we received a full, one day course, plus breakfast, plus lunch, plus all the ammo and the guns free! And no real estate presentation. The instructors are true professionals. These guys know their stuff. They demonstrate the highest competence and were all extremely articulate in conveying the information, plus I felt they were truly interested in my learning and improving my skills while having a good time.

Todd Matthews, Internet Commerce

You covered everything completely. Way above my expectations!!! It was the most comprehensive class, the best firearms training I ever had; far better than even my military training.

William Haller, Project Manager

Front Sight is the best firearms training available. Front Sight has made me feel more comfortable with a weapon than the last three previous instructions I have had.

Bryan Hyde, Radio Personality

Your institute is a shining example of professionalism, leadership, and common sense. I have never attended a class that I did not come away from better in every sense as a firearms owner and shooter. Your staff is personable, credible, and knowledgeable.

Cameron Hansen, School Teacher

If it were possible to improve upon perfection, you have done it! I attended in October and was awestruck, and this time it was even better. I like how the facility continues to improve as well as the improved teaching techniques. Having each instructor specialize in a portion of the instruction is an outstanding teaching technique. It gives the student a variety of personalities and teaching styles. I tell everyone about this incredible place!

Keith Owen, Martial Arts Instructor

This was very, very, very professional training. I'm a martial arts instructor and I learned a lot about teaching and being professional from the staff at Front Sight.

John Lowenbruck, Tile and Marble Contractor

The instructors at Front Sight are larger than life. Anything I can tell you about the course really won't do it justice until you come and see for yourself.

James R. Morris, Human Resource Coordinator

Front Sight is the most progressive step I have ever seen toward bringing responsible gun ownership into a light that even Sarah Brady could not say anything bad about. The instructors are professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and fun.

Daryl Okayama, Firearms Instructor

The instruction is top notch, concise, and clear. To offer this type of instruction to civilians is brilliant and it is such a good deal because it is absolutely 100% no-strings-attached FREE! Where can you get that type of value? You can't even buy this kind of training at most of the other shooting schools. Front Sight is the most positive, professional training experience that I have ever attended.

Robert Tonachio, Insurance Marketing

The course was excellent, well planned, exceptional. The instructors were all very professional. This is an outstanding opportunity to participate in an outstanding program.

Donna DeHaan, Professional Keyboard Artist

I was glad I came! As a 61 year old grandmother, I was truly impressed by the professionalism, patience, and hospitality of the whole staff. Everyone was exceptionally friendly. Go see for yourself. It is an incredible opportunity. Give yourself an educational, enlightening experience.

Harold Todd, Fireman

The most pleasurable shooting experience I have ever had since shooting my first shots with Dad over forty years ago. Front Sight will be the Mecca of the shooting sport training profession. All of the instructors were of the highest caliber. Professional, courteous, and knowledgeable--the best I have ever seen. The Front Sight course in submachine gun is the best one day event any shooter can experience!

Melissa B., Registered Nurse

I had an absolute blast and learned a great deal about how to control a submachine gun properly. The instructors were outstanding and very patient even with novices like myself.

Jami Armstrong, Controller

It was a great experience for me. Since I never had shot any gun before I was a little nervous about taking this course, but the staff made me feel very comfortable and it turned out to be a lot of fun.

Charles Haase, Economics Professor

This is the most fun and most instructive day I have spent in a very long time. All of Front Sight's instructors are professional and well spoken, delivering their lessons with crispness and precision. The submachine gun course was interesting, educational, and most importantly, a lot of fun!

David Streck, Attorney

Absolutely fantastic! I cannot think of any ways to improve upon such an amazing course.

Elliot Grossman, Attorney at Law

Although I've been a gun owner for many years, it shocks me to think about how little I knew about properly shooting a handgun before starting a Front Sight. Thank you Dr. Piazza and Front Sight instructors! I highly recommend your school for anyone from the first-time shooter to the long-time gun owner and experienced shooter. The instruction and teaching methodology is excellent. The instructors are personable and friendly and the atmosphere is supportive.

Dr. Scott J. Heun, Chiropractor

In two days I learned more about shooting than in the past five years. Front Sight's training course is the best money I've ever spent on shooting.

Deke Castleman, Travel Writer

Everything was first-class. Immense amount of training. Now I can practice safely; I know what to practice; and I will practice.

Douglas C. Scott, Buyer

Outstanding teacher to student ratio. Lecture was without question, equal or greater in value than the range time. The instructors demonstrated great skill which really made me try to reach for that level. Front Sight is the best school of its kind. You are taught that the last thing you ever want to do is shoot someone. You are also taught the best way to do so, when there is no other choice.

Jean Mauregard, Street Rod Builder

Even if you think you know all about the use of a defensive handgun - trust me, you don't! Take the defensive handgun course at Front Sight. You will realize how much you have not known. The skills you learn could save your life.

My instructors at Front Sight were possibly the most capable and caring team I have ever had the pleasure to work with. I hope to meet them all again.

William Brizzee, Dentist

After just my first handgun course, I no longer looked at the expensive, glitzy new guns as real defensive tools. What counts first and foremost is training. The actual tool a distant second.

Mike Petrashevich, Office Manager

It's true you just don't know how much you really don't know until you come to Front Sight.

Michael Stonehouse, Fleet Purchaser

I am definitely coming back again, and again, and again. I learned more in the two day handgun course than I have in 20 years of target shooting and practical shooting. You can't get better training at any price anywhere!

Jill Hakes, Homemaker

This was my first experience with guns. I felt the lectures and range time are an individual resource to me. I fell I can be a partner with my husband in protecting our home and family. I appreciated the individual attention - it allowed me to work more intently on form and technique. I also appreciated the time taken to explain about the anatomy of a gun - I know absolutely nothing about guns before this class. I also felt my confidence bud. I may be consciously incompetent but I feel safer when I handle ... (click for more)

I did not know much about handguns before attending Front Sight. People would ask me why I wanted to do a 4 day course like this. My answer - "I only know enough about a gun to dangerous." I wanted to learn how to properly handle a gun and be able to use one to defend my family if the need should ever arise. I pray that I wall never have to use this training in a defensive manner - but I know that I could and would.

In Front Sight's night training - you learn how difficult and complicated it is to shoot at night, which is when you have the greatest chance of needing your shooting skills. Learning the skills from these courses helps you to feel so much more confident in your abilities regardless of the time of day. It gives you so much more of an advantage over those who don't train at night - which is probably 99.9% of the gun owning population.

Linda Bolla, Vice-President of Administrations

Front Sight provides extremely professional training and is a safe, unforgettable experience.

If you own a gun or plan to own a gun, don't you think you should know how to use it?

This class is not just about shooting a gun. I learned how to take care of a gun that won't shoot. I learned how to deal with a gun safely, and the consequences that I may have to deal with, should I decide to shoot someone. I learned what I need to do and the tools I would need to protect my loved ones. I also learned that not all gun owners are rednecks in camouflage outfits! I met judges, lawyers, wives, teachers, etc.

Matthew Marchand, Student

If you have never shot a gun before or are biased against guns, take this course and then come back and talk to me. I guarantee you won't think the same.

L. Chaney, Nursing Student

The instruction is, by far, the best I have ever received. My improvement is 100% since my previous time here. "Dry practice" works!

No where else will you receive such in depth instruction on real life scenarios or the real life consequences of carrying or firing a weapon.

The instructors are first class and will have you shooting correctly, quickly, and most importantly - accurately. It is amazing and I will be back.

Mitch Gilbert, Retail Supervisor

I had been visiting the FS web site for several years. After further local and Internet inquiries, I attended a two day defensive hand gun course, where I received the most professional, patient and understanding instruction ever. The instructors are top notch. Now my competence, confidence and awareness have increased by at least 100%. I am proud to say I am now A First Family Member.

S.A. Burk, Gun Store Mgr.

To understand the level of training you receive at Front Sight is like this: Training to shoot at Front Sight with their Instructors is akin to training to drive at Daytona Speedway with Al Unser, Jr.

I've been in the Army for 11 years. If I had had this type of instruction before I would undoubtedly have qualified expert on the M-16. I can't believe that in 4 days of training I was able to deliver two rounds from the field ready to the thoracic cavity of a target in 1.2 seconds. I you told me I would be able to do that before I took this course, I would have told you that you were crazy.

I learned more in the past four days than I ever expected to know in a lifetime about handguns and was afraid to touch them when I showed up. Thank you for helping cure one of my fears.

Rick Godinez, Sr. Loan Officer

Valerie Maldonado

It will definitely make you comfortable in not only using a gun to defend yourself and your family, but also avoiding fatal confrontations and assessing when lethal force is necessary.

When I came to Front Sight I was blown away at the level of professionalism, consistency and enthusiasm each and every instructor had.

My daughter attended the Four Day Youth Course and learned so much and had so much fun that she keeps asking to go back to Front Sight for more.

John C. Roach, Police Detective

With 25 years in the LAPD and numerous tactical and survival schools attended with FBI and various other task force agencies, I did not believe that I could learn any new skills from Front Sight. I was dead wrong! This training took me to the next level. I had not possessed this speed and readiness prior to this four-day course!!

I was strongly encouraged by a co-worker of mine to get involved with Front Sight as it could save my life one day. I live alone in a high crime area in Northern California and feel that knowing how to protect myself is so much better than wishing I knew how and it's too late. To share a quote a friend told me: "I'd rather be judged by 12 than carried by 6". I had more fun at Front Sight than I did on my last vacation to Hawaii! I can hardly wait to go back for the next class!

Donald R. Benfield, Fire Captain/Investigator

I work for a small city in Southern California as a Captain in the Fire Department and as an Arson Investigator. Recently I, along with 6 other Firemen had to requalify with our firearms (Glock 22) with our Police Department. As you can imagine there was lots of verbal spears being thrown at us firefighters from all of the cops there shooting with us. During the training a friendly competition developed and the firefighters shot the pants off of the cops. Two of us are 1st Family Members and a couple others had attended a 4 day defensive hand gun course ... (click for more)

Hector Alcazar Jr., Law Enforcement

In the fall of 2002 I was awed by the speed and proficiency of my classmates who four days later were distinguished graduates (4 Day Defensive Handgun). I remember wondering how many years and classes it would take me to possibly ever be that fast and proficient. (answer) One year and three classes. In 2003 I took two 2 Day Defensive Handgun classes and in September I distinguished myself in the 4 Day. More than just an ego boost, you guys have given me tools and skills crucial to my workday. From one law enforcement professional to a school of professionals, ... (click for more)

Stephen E. Staley, Army Aviation

Great team building experience for the family and co-workers.

Colleen Hillman, Mother

I think everyone should take Empty Hand Defense, Edged Weapons and Martial Arts at Front Sight. The instructors are patient, knowledgeable, funny and extremely professional. They took a group which included a grandmother, two moms, three children and an attorney and gently pushed them through what we thought was rigorous training that will be extremely useful. During the workday I am either on a college campus or working at a Federal installation which won't allow me to carry a handgun. With more training in this curriculum at Front Sight I know that I will always have four defensive weapons with me ... (click for more)

Nicky Eddy, Marketing Consultant and Mother

I finally took both of my boys (7 and 14 yrs old) to the Family Safe Forever Program; both were thrilled and enjoyed all the challenging adventures. They definitely will return for more !! See you soon at the range!

Nicky Eddy, Marketing Consultant and Mother

Ever since I was exposed to Front Sight's Practical Rifle course back in August 1997 by Dr. Piazza himself, I have been returning to gain more knowledge and skill. Not only to shoot better, but most importantly, to gain the understanding of self defense and personal safety. That is what all the courses at Front Sight are all about! There is no other place I would like to learn to shoot and understand to shoot safely than here with the most professional and highly qualified and most dedicated line of Instructors!

The shotgun course at Front Sight just might be the finest choice to teach home defense skills. Who wouldn't invest four days to provide a real security base for their family?

Everyone should learn how to use a gun, even if you don't have an interest in owning a gun or shooting. Guns are very prolific in society and people should know how they work and how to not be afraid of them.

Brandon Downs, C.E.O.

If you're going to own or carry a gun this is the place to become confident and competent in its use and application.

David Skitarellic, Banking

This has been the best training experience of my life. The amount of skill imparted to the students and the achievements are astounding.

Justin Juknelis, Business Owner

This is a must for anyone concerned with the safety of themselves and their family.

Michael Harrold, USMC/Intel

I went to Front Sight before joining the Marine Corps. The Marine Corps has an awesome shooting program, but I can't think of any better platform to build my shooting career on than Front Sight.

Tom Child, Executive

Dear Front Sight Resort, We finally got the CCP law changed in MN to a shall issue state. May 28th I applied for a permit and found out that Front Sight was not yet an approved provided by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Over the last few months, I have taken the 4 Day Defensive Handgun and the Two Day Advanced Tactical Handgun courses at Front Sight. These ... (click for more)

Ken Fish, Executive

Dear Front Sight Resort, I'm writing to tell you, "It's all your fault." This weekend, Anastasia (my 7 year old daughter) and I went boar hunting in Mendocino County, along with my cousin and his son. On the first night of the hunt, we got on a good group of hogs, and I stalked to within about 40 yards of them. I selected one that I wanted, a reddish one with a clearly ... (click for more)

Gary Aglietti, Executive

Dear Front Sight Resort, I am contacting you to reiterate my thanks for a superb program. On the June 13-14 weekend my 12 year old son and my 14 year old daughter (they turn 13 and 15 July 6th and 1st) attended the four day defensive handgun course. It was my 11th handgun course and the 1st for the children. Before the weekend I had several concerns. My two big ones ... (click for more)

Rebekah, Student

Front Sight has the best classes and activities. That is because the instructors are so nice.

Margo, Student

The instructors are wonderful. Day 1 left me eager for Day 2. I will come back and take more classes for sure.

Ed Breiner, Nevada Peace Officer

From the beginner to the advanced, anyone can learn something here at Front Sight.

Tons of fun. I feel much safer.

I had a ton of fun on the ropes.

The climbing was my favorite part.

It's really, really fun!

You need to do it!

Alexandra, Student

Class taught me how to be safe. I would love to bring all my friends to the next class at Front Sight.

Daniel, Student

Front Sight helped me improve in my self defense skills, as well as ensure my confidence in my weapon. They train the body to work with the mind for a worst case scenario. I give it a 10.

Steve Campbell, Prison Training Supervisor, Rangemaster

I have attended numerous law enforcement firearms instructor courses. Front Sight exceeds all P.O.S.T. courses I have attended. I was truly impressed and humbled.

George Cole, Federal Agent

I have trained with many top name private schools as well as several law enforcement training programs. Front Sight is the top of the top of the line.

Kurt Horvat, VP

Front Sight was the most worthwhile firearms training I have ever participated in. Even better than the night shooting handgun course I once attended that was taught by Pennsylvania State Trooper Instructors.

Juliana Bernabe, CFO

As a woman student I was concerned whether I could really do the class. I'm glad I attended because I learned so much more in two days than I had in the last year of shooting. I now have confidence to draw my gun, shoot, and even clear any malfunctions in 2-3 seconds. I can do it every single time.

Jim Johnson, CPA/Attorney

First class people and a first class course. My family changed our California vacation plans to enable me to spend the day at Front Sight. I was not disappointed. Lots of practical tips I've not received elsewhere.

Mike Jones, Police Officer

Front Sight is hands down the best facility and instructional staff in the nation.

Tim Lynch, Retired Marine Officer

Without question Front Sight covers more ground than any other comparable course--civilian, military or law enforcement. The level of proficiency that the average student attains far exceeds the standards expected of military professionals. The material covered and proficiency levels achieved at Front Sight surpass anything I experienced in over 20 years of military service.

Randy Furby, Deputy Sheriff

All of the staff at Front Sight are professional. They are very good at what they do. The course was the most professionally run course I have ever attended. Very impressive both in action and performance.

Dale Huston, Police Officer

What you learn at Front Sight today, could save your life tomorrow. I'm impressed.

H. Shonnard, President, Pacific Yacht Towers

There are few times in life where a person's expectations are met; no less surpassed. Front Sight's course and personnel have done that! Thank you for a great experience!

Peter Nolan, USMC

Without a doubt Front Sight is the most professional and well put together organization I have ever had the pleasure of working with. The facility (even though still under construction) is impeccable. The instructors are knowledgeable, professional, and make the experience enjoyable.

Stephanie Bird, Homemaker

I believe Front Sight is making a lot of dreams come true. The experience was awesome. It gave a whole new meaning to the word 'gun.' You are giving those of us who were previously against guns or knew nothing about guns a much better understanding of what they are all about. As a woman, I feel so much better, knowing that I have training on how to operate a gun to protect myself and my loved ones.

Doug Woolley, Army Officer

The course of instruction at Front Sight is excellent. The staff is very professional. I learned a surprising amount of information about handling a submachine gun. A great experience!

Lyle Hayes, Aircraft Maintenance Technician

For five years my issued weapon was a M3A1 Grease Gun (.45ACP submachine gun). I learned more about shooting a submachine gun in one day at Front Sight than I did in five years of military experience. Front Sight is the best training I have ever had, period!

Robert Warren, Policemen

As I was told at the beginning of the Front Sight course, everyone will experience significant improvement over their current skills. This is certainly true.

Rick Del Prato, Correctional Sergeant

This crash course of skills, tactics, and control exceeds many law enforcement curriculum taught to advanced law enforcement.

Mike Jones, Police Officer

I have been to numerous instructor courses including the CHP, FBI, and civilian. Front Sight's teaching style and philosophies are second to none. Your techniques will help me with any course I have to instruct. Front Sight instructors are by far the most professional and dedicated staff I have ever met.

Joseph Ponczck, Army Infantry Sergeant

If you want a consistent product, Front Sight will provide it for you. Front Sight is the industry standard.

Gregory Dust, Retired Police Sergeant LAPD

This is the best training course that I can remember attending. I learned a ton of information and improved my shooting skills. I recommend Front Sight training for law enforcement officers.

Matt Stone, Police Sergeant

I have carried a shotgun for 14 years as a police officer. After this course at Front Sight, I will use it!

Edmund Gilmore, Retired Police Officer

By far, Front Sight is the best firearms training I have ever received. The staff is superb. Their patience is beyond measure. These men are real gentlemen and experts in their field. My hat is off to them.

John F. Moran, Captain, US Army

Suffice it to say that I have been to Gunsite, LFI, HK, and OPS and I always come back to Front Sight.

Edwin Lowrey, US Special Forces, Retired

If you have attended some of the 'old' schools you need to go to Front Sight. There are a lot of proficient shooters in the industry, but not all are professional instructors. Front Sight is the home of the professional instructors with the best facilities around.

Bill Garland, Firearms Instructor, Oregon Police Academy

Student comfort and safety are stressed in a positive, team environment. Great job! The training is as good or better than any I have encountered. Very impressed by the direct and friendly teaching style, and the lack of 'cute' or ego-driven sayings or techniques. Solid, sound information delivered by superior instructors!

Mallika Albert, Massage Therapist

I approached this training with an extreme anti-gun attitude that I've had my whole life (50 years). Front Sight's training definitely changed my attitude significantly. I acquired important skills to now share a new interest with my husband. Thank you Front Sight!

Bryon R. Benz, Captain, US Army

I thought I knew what I was doing. After attending the Four Day Handgun course I now know what I did not know and learned and improved a ton! Excellent instruction. The personnel and training techniques are top notch. I will go back for more training.

Les Stickles, Police Lieutenant

It's great! Not just this course, but all courses offered are appealing to do as soon as possible to improve knowledge, skills and abilities with the best in the field.

Kenneth M. "Mack" Elliott, Jr., Retired Naval Officer

As a lifetime shooter, I came to Front Sight expecting to learn. I had no idea how much I did not know. Front Sight's training experience is unmatched.

Beth Duensing, Homemaker

I signed up for a Front Sight course to appease my husband. I agreed to come, but not necessarily to shoot. I was afraid of actually shooting something automatic. The instructors were great. After the first shots were fired, I became much more relaxed and had a fantastic time. Now I will likely come back for another course. Thank you for this opportunity.

Jim Conway, Conway Engineering

The defensive handgun course is an eye-opener that was jammed packed with real world information. Front Sight is not a boot camp with drill instructors, but rather a friendly and highly competent learning environment. I cannot imagine a better way to learn how and when to use firearms for your personal defense. I have had a concealed weapon permit for almost 15 years. I learned more in this two day program than in the previous 15 years.

Richard Kutschman, US Naval Officer

Very professional instructors. They are very approachable, incredibly knowledgeable, polite, and humorous. Without a doubt, the best instructors I have ever encountered.

Michael Calhoun, Peace Officer

The instructors performed professionally and courteously. Their positive praise and constructive corrections far surpassed any of my previous firearms training. I learned many new tactical techniques that my police academy instructors should adopt and teach.

Ken Fish, Fortune 500 Executive

You have to see it and hear Dr. Piazza's vision to appreciate it fully. However, the submachine gun course is free, really absolutely free. It is fun. It is safe. It is educational even if you already know a lot about firearms. It is unique. Where else will you ever get a chance to shoot a submachine gun? GO!

John M. Capps, Major, USMC

Come here and find out for yourself what a great organization Front Sight is.

Becky Hyde, Housewife

I came to the handgun course a complete novice. I had fired a pistol before, but relied on my husband to do all the set up before shooting and securing it afterward. I learned not only how to do both of these things, but now feel confident in accurately firing and handling my pistol. This class was a challenge, but was extremely fun and exhilarating. This class pushed me beyond a comfort level I had long enjoyed, but consequently improved me way beyond my expectations. Thank you Front Sight.

Kamie Blake, Mom

Fear of guns is your lack of knowledge of them. There is no better defense against an enemy than a firearm, especially for women. You don't know what you don't know until you come to Front Sight.

Eric Ryden, Police Officer

Front Sight is the future in firearms training. From the novice civilian to the veteran soldier or law enforcement officer, all will gain invaluable knowledge by attending their courses.

Daniel Hall, Fraud Investigator

The free, one day submachine gun course is well worth the $500 dollars you won't have to spend. The Instruction alone is worth the drive; the shooting is a bonus.

Dale Wysocki, Police Officer

I have been to many schools and Front Sight is the best and that is why I purchased a membership. Front Sight has qualified instructors that can do what they preach. Front Sight has consistency of instruction--all of the instructors follow the same format which alleviates any confusion. Front Sight has an attention to detail. Front Sight provides intensity and volume of training. I picked up more in a couple of days at Front Sight than years elsewhere. If you are interested in becoming a truly proficient and responsible gun handler and want to participate in shooting sports at a first ... (click for more)

Jeff Caulk, Naval Flight Officer

Fantastic experience! Front Sight's free submachine gun course was better instruction than the 'fam fires' I've done in my 13 years in the Navy. I had loads of fun and received fantastic training. My skills improved 200% with this one day course. Just do it. There are no strings attached.

George Lohmann, Police Officer

Front Sight easily exceeded the firearms training I have previously received in my police career. I will definitely be returning in the future to the fountain of firearms training at Front Sight.

Wayne Repich, CEO/Co-Founder, Vanguard Acceptance Corporation

Front Sight is excellent! Incredible! There is an old saying, 'Those who can't do, teach.' That old saying does not apply at Front Sight at all. Every instructor at Front Sight is an expert marksman and tactician. And, they are fantastic educators.

SSG, Dale R. Mohr

As a 14 year veteran of the US Army Special Forces, I have never been to a better school on the use of handguns. It was so great to learn from instructors who are not only good teachers, but who can also perform the tasks on demand. One of the things that impressed me most was how well rounded the class was. We were taught safe gun handling, marksmanship skills, legal and moral aspects of owning and using firearms and what needs to be done to preserve our firearm freedoms. We were taught what every firearm owner or user should know ... (click for more)

Jason Petterson, Police Officer

They say some things sound too good to be true, but Front Sight is the exception. This class was the reason I came to Las Vegas from Minnesota and this class made the trip well worth the time and expense.

Tim Harvey, Police Officer

Some of the best, if not the best instruction that I have had in a long, long, time.

Robert Herrera

Front Sight broadened my views about submachine guns and more. I just finished five years in the Marine Corps and I learned something new, today, at Front Sight.

Darryl Powers, Arson Investigator

Public or private, this was by far the best handgun course I have ever attended. Great job by the entire staff.

Ellwyn L. Laxson, Retired Fighter Pilot

Everything was First Class!

Debra Teal, Housewife

I came because my husband insisted. I expected not to enjoy myself because I did not feel competent enough to do this and was really apprehensive. But what I found is that the instructors were so patient and encouraging. I was like the little engine that said, 'I think I can, I think I can-I know I can!' You don't have to be an expert to attend this course. It is as enjoyable for a novice like myself as it is to shooters of all skill levels. Don't be intimidated. Try it!

Kamie Blake, Homemaker

A lot of women are afraid of guns. Coming to a course at Front Sight will teach you how to be more confident with weapons and yourself. You will know how to defend yourself and those you love.

Dewey Winstead, USAF Medical Technician

Very professional, yet fun loving instructional staff. I was especially pleased to meet Dr. piazza and see him taking the time to help instruct in the class.

Laura Cheney, Homemaker

As a beginner, I found my learning curve to be straight up. The course pace was fast enough to push the student yet allowed time to digest all the material. I found the instructors to be very professional, knowledgeable, extremely competent, alert, and helpful at all times. I appreciate that they were not patronizing or condescending to me because I am a woman. The course was challenging and fun!

Robert Tippit, Police Firearms Instructor

Fantastic! Stupendous! Every time I step foot on Front Sight property I learn something new. As a firearms instructor, I have found that the most knowledgeable and dedicated instructor cadre in the business can be found at Front Sight. When I am asked about other training schools, the first words out of my mouth are Front Sight!

Todd Baker, Executive

Front Sight is the best firearms training I have ever received. The instructors know how to train students. All were knowledgeable, skilled, friendly, and taught me how to be proficient with a firearm.

Carol Hill, Artist

Impressive!!! I was a little nervous at first, but the course was so well choreographed that I soon became at ease. I really enjoyed myself and came away feeling competent that I could handle myself with an Uzi submachine gun! I can't say enough about the instructors. I would rather travel to Las Vegas than attend courses locally.

Irlene Mandrell, Entertainer

If you get a chance to take this class at any price, it would be great. All the instructors were very professional and fun to be around. Don't miss the chance to take this class for free. You will not only learn more about shooting, but more about life and how to save yours.

Matt Stone, Police Sergeant

Front Sight's training has prepared me for a 1st Place finish in a gun fight.

Doug Whittaker, Police Officer

The instructors at Front Sight were the best weapons instructors I've ever dealt with. Knowledgeable, fun, and always willing to help. Thanks!

Lt. Colonel Charles S. McDonald, USAF

The excellent instruction I received today exceeds all the weapons training I experienced in 24 years of active military service. I salute Dr. Piazza and the Front Sight staff.

Beatrice Harrold, Captain, US Naval Reserves

As an OIC (Officer in Charge) of a Naval Reserve Fleet Hospital Detachment, I am confident that should I be recalled to active duty and need to handle a weapon, I could do so with the confidence and solid foundation built by Front Sight. You guys are head and shoulders above the industry standard. Thank you for awakening me!

Mike Docherty, Police Detective

This is the third course I have taken at Front Sight and I will be back for more.

Lesa, Student

Excellent staff. Everyone is so helpful. Never once was I made to feel dumb when I made a mistake. The staff is very professional with corrections and suggestions on how to do it better.

Viktoria Hawkins, Associate at Home Depot

It will give you a better understanding of the whole shooting process and really help you to see the gun as a tool, not something to be afraid of!

Kristine Scott, Homemaker

I've been shooting for about 13 years and it's amazing how much my skills have improved in just two days.
