I just completed Gary's conceal carry class last Saturday. It was extrememly enjoyable and very informative. We could have spent another week just on all the laws involved with protecting yourself in this country. This class and instructor were top notch. I recommend them both regardless of your desire to conceal or carry a handgun.

Gary was a great teacher and very knowledgeable about the subject matter. It is quite obvious that he is very passionate about the rights and responsibilities of gun owners. I considered several different places to take this class and went with the cheapest one (this class). It's often said that you "get what you pay for" but in the case of this class I got more than double what I paid for. I would recommend Gary's class to anyone wishing to pursue a concealed carry permit.

Took the class yesterday (March 6, 2010) and found it very informative and presented in an interesting and involved format. Would recommend this class to anyone with, or potentially with, any interest in this ares.

I took Gary's class today, March 6, 2010. I always enjoy shooting my firearm but have been apprehensive about when, where and how to transport it. Gary is well informed and his enthusiasm is contagious. The CCW class is good information whether you intend to conceal a weapon or not. The class helped me to think about a lot of situations now vs when they can cause harm. Not just where you can carry a firearm, or when you can use a firearm, but more importantly how to safely handle a firearm by demonstrating techniques and habits that ensure not only my safety, but also the safety of those around me. It was time well spent and a great value for $75.

Gary's conceal carry class was very interesting, informative and fun. I learned a lot. I would advise anyone who owns a gun to take this class so that you are informed of your rights. You never know when you might be hunting, or just at home with your weapon when your confronted with a situation where you need to protect yourself or someone else and YOU NEED TO KNOW YOUR RIGHTS. Even if I don't get my conceal carry permit, I'm glad I took this class.

As a woman, I recommend this class to any woman out there that needs to get informed and protect themselves. It was an awesome class!!!

I took Gary's Class Feb 2010 and I was highly pleased with the knowledge I gained from the class. Even though the class was quite extensive, it didn't seem as long based on the interest level of myself and those taking the class. I have recommended his class to my family members and friends. It is great that he allows former class members to sit in on sessions to keep abreast of the current gun laws.

Took the concealed carry class on 2/6/10- A well run class covering not only the required state information, but "need to know" information that all gun owners should be aware of. I'd reccommend this class to everyone.

Just took the class today, and what can I say, informative, an ignorance blower for those with mis-informed info. An put simply, more than 75 dollars, WAY MORE THAN 75 dollars worth of quality lessons and EXP. By guns from local gun shops, be taught by Mr. Gary Steely.

just finished taking gary's class was very informative alot of miss information from other people was cleared up gary answered any and all questions class participation was welcomed we had a few that had never handled a firearm before but they were treated with patience and were shooting like pros by the end of the class would suggest this class for anyone beginners or advance great job gary

As a classroom teacher, I know how hard it is to keep peoples attention, especially a student who is a teacher. Gary did a fabulous job, the class was informative and interesting, the 8 hours flew by. Thank you Gary for staying in the cold late to get all of us qualified. The absolute best CCW instructor in the area! Thanks Gary!

I took Gary's class on 1/16/10 and I would recomend it to any one who has a gun. Even if you don't plan on carrying one concealed. He explains laws that every gun owner should know, he gives you situational scenarios to better explain them and teaches safe gun handling. Great class.

Gary's CCW class was very good. I would recomend it to any one who has a gun regardless of the desire to carry. He explains laws that every gun owner should be aware of and teaches safe gun handling.

I took Gary's course last year and enjoyed it very much. So much so that I went back on Jan 16, and brought my wife, her friend, her friend's husband and her friend's friend, if you can follow all of that. All of them were very impressed with what they learned and how it was presented by Gary. I'll keep sending as many people as I can.

I took the class on January 16, 2010 and left feeling that my $75.00 was very well spent. Gary's knowledge of the subject as well as his style of instruction kept the class interesting as well fast paced.

I'm the type woman who was more scared of having a gun than not having one. But in these times, I felt the need to be able to protect myself. Gary's class was DEFINITELY the answer for me! His class was informative and kept my attention (no thoughts of nodding off to sleep!). I took the class yesterday, 1/16/10, and then proudly walked off the shooting range with my target. I recommend it to everyone.

I attended this class with my daughter and it was very good. We now have a much better understanding of NC gun laws and I learned a few things about handguns and shooting that was news to me. I plan to return to the class with my wife.

The Concealed Carry Class in December was informative and entertaining..It was the easiest Saturday 8-hr Class I have attended...but definitely not a waste of time.

I had the pleasure of taking Gary's concealed carry class on December 12. Gary thoroughly covers N.C. law governing the use of deadly force, and you leave the class feeling confident about when and when not to use deadly force. Gary is a patriot and defender of our 2nd amendment right and can give you advice on how to fight the good fight, should you choose to. I highly recommend Gary's class.

I took this class on Dec 12, 2009. I was a non-gun guy and Gary did an excellent job in the class and range. Gary presents the information in a way that makes sense and everyone can relate to. He makes it real life. I encourage everyone to take his class. Thanks Gary,
