My names Diego I recently completed my CCW training with Orville Write, and I highly recommend him as an instructor. He was extremely helpful, kind, and interactive throughout the entire class. He made sure everyone understood the material and took the time to answer questions without making anyone feel rushed. One of the best parts of the class was Orville's sense of humor. He kept the training engaging, entertaining, and easy to follow while still covering all the important information. His professionalism, knowledge, and friendly attitude made for a great learning experience. If you're looking for a CCW instructor who is knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely cares about his students, I would highly recommend Orville Write. read more

Orville is a true professional, teaches you everything you should know and more. Will definitely take his class again.

Orville is a true professional. He was able to get me signed up the day before for my 16-hour weekend CCW course, which I really appreciated. He explained everything clearly, used real-life scenarios, and made the information easy to understand. I highly recommend Orville to anyone needing their CCW course -- top-notch instructor and a smooth, stress-free experience. read more

CCW Permit Instruction - Firearm Training Near Me - Orange, California

Orville Wright is a great instruction. Clear and direct with some dad jokes thrown into the mix. I used his service for my CA 16hr CCW Training. Fair pricing and honest man. Day one is at the Elks Lodge in Santa Ana. It's a long day but it's what's required in CA. Day two starts at Evan's range in Orange, then back at the lodge for the second half of the day. If you're looking for CCW Training or renewal, I would highly recommend him. read more

Orville was an incredible and knowledgable instructor! He was interactive with the class, and kept us engaged the entire time with videos, and important information.

Easy processing, clear instruction, smooth program all the way. Includes 30 days of range practice time, too. Highly recommended.

Just finished the class this past weekend and it was a great class that was informative and kept your interest. When I do my renewal I will definitely be back here. Orville did a great job making it entertaining and informative. read more

Orville's class was exceptionally informative. His use of clear examples and thorough explanations of various scenarios greatly enhanced the learning experience. A unique benefit is the 30-day range pass included with the class, a perk not offered by other instructors. He also clearly outlined the current county department processes and expectations. I was very satisfied with the training and plan to return for renewal. read more

Orville was very knowledgeable in laws on transporting weapons and how to secure them. He advised the class the importance on staying updated on new CCW laws and where to have your weapons while in public. Thank you Orville on advising us on purchasing CCW Insurance and the liability of not having insurance. Great class! read more

Professionalism And training at its best for instruction on CCW permit Thank you, Mark LaBray read more

Just finished this program this past weekend. Orville does a great job answering questions and giving you all the information to stay safe and legal. He also is really good at making the 16 hour class not feel like it is dragging on or boring. I would Orville's training to anyone looking to complete their CCW permit process. read more

Great class to take your LA County CCW 16 hour course. There were also Orange County residents in the classroom as well. OW does a great job and is very knowledgeable, friendly, and supportive with his instruction. I highly recommend giving him a call if you're new to CCW or need to renew your current CCW. read more

Orville is highly knowledgeable and does an outstanding job sharing his knowledge while he prepares you to be safe and responsible. He is well aware of the latest policies, mandates, and laws. He takes his time to dot every "I" and cross every "T" throughout the course. read more

Been coming here for years. Still doesn't remember me. Brought many other students here. Repeats content. Threatens to kick out students several times per day. I'm ready to try a new place read more

I have not signed up "at this time" I plan on it next month, - I am Anticipating a positive "Learning" experience ~ I am ( POST ) Certified "Police Officer Standard of Training" - This MAY assist me in all aspects of obtaining my CCW ~ I had the pleaser of speaking with Oliver But I am still a little unclear on the procedures, ~ and what to expect "if I successfully complete the course" - I appreciate your time, Thank you. Mike Scott Fanning. ( chrismikescott1978@gmail. Com ) read more

I had the best experience! To be honest I was really dreading a 8 hour class and it was so interactive and educational and covered things I thought I was going to take another class for. Orville is very experienced and strict but needs to be in this Industry. Thank you so much! read more

EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING and UNPROFESSIONAL. Ridiculous how hard it was to sign up for a CCW renewal class. You can't sign up online. Per the website: "All renewal class registrations are taken over the phone!" So called and left a message. Then got an email back instructing me to call at a certain time, did and got the voicemail again. Went back and forth like this for several days. The instructor would tell me to "call tomorrow in the morning." Did so, but just got the voicemail and no return call. Too many other CCW renewal options available to deal with this nonsense. read more

Learned about these guys from Erik lombere's YouTube channel ig: lombere_tactical Orville covers every base and puts you on the right track to acquiring your CCW. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COURSE TO EVERYONE! read more

Orville wright, was the best of the best! He made the class interesting and fun smooth process, from live fire to the class exam. He's highly recommended!! read more

This is the best ccw place in Southern California I love the people and instructor that works here and they are so down to earth I cannot explain in words how terrific and professional the instructors in this class is Please don't be nervous and check out this place for your ccw read more

Orville's course came highly recommended and now I know why. I attended Orville's Orange County and Multi-state CCW courses. The combined courses were so much more than I expected. Orville is an excellent instructor. Knowledgeable, thorough and most of all prepared me for the responsibility of carrying a concealed weapon. The course is 16 hours and it flew by. Orville made the course material interesting. He used the material as a basis for discussing real life examples. He fielded all questions patiently and in a way that helped everyone in the class comprehend the nuisances of carrying a concealed weapon and defending yourself and your loved one in a vast number of situations. "everything you wanted to know about CCW but were afraid to ask" Now for the range instruction. THE BEST IN OC I have handled firearms since I was a teen. I can say with 100 percent certainty that before Orville's course I was not prepared to unholster a weapon and defend myself. It is actually scary to think that there are people carrying weapons in OC that have not gone through Orville's weapons instruction. I checked into other courses and NO OTHER COURSE IN OC PREPARES YOU LIKE ORVILLE! read more

Wonderful, Informative and Realtime. Orville and Sheila are quite a team. I left the course confident enough to carry responsibly and knowledgeable enough to process many possible scenarios that might occur in the filed or my home. Also, I felt that Orville and Sheila really cared about helping us to succeed so that we may join the ranks of good people who just want to have the option to protect themselves. Thank you Frank Q. www.QuinnsATopPI.com read more

I only wish I could give more than 5 Stars. I attended the training this last weekend after doing a fair amount of research on who's course to take. I knew it would be a great course due to other yelp reviews however what I did not know was just how much information and training I was going to receive. Orville and Sheila are true Professionals. Most of us were very familiar with fire arms however we did have a couple of individuals who were new to shooting. This however was no problem due to the amount of pre-session training as well as constant professional supervision! SAFETY WAS ALWAYS THE NUMBER ONE CONCERN! Orville is a true credit to his profession and I really can not imagine how anyone could due this course better! If getting a CCW is something you are interested in you could not choose better instructors than Orville and Sheila Wright. read more

Orville is an incredible instructor. The class was very informative, and his presentation kept the atmosphere light and fun. I chose the "multi state" option, and I left the class with two separate folders with everything I needed. He literally walks you through the entire process (even helping with exact documentation & copies of photos of required items). Live scanning was even able to be done during class. I was able to leave the class and immediately put my documents in the mail for the multi-state application, and immediately upload my info into the OCSD portal for the CA-CCW. Even after the class, Orville ALWAYS answered his phone and helped with questions/revisions via email. I cannot recommend this class enough. If you are considering getting your CCW and want a complete system, this is THE place to go. Thank you Orville! read more

Let me start by saying, 5 stars isn't a high enough rating for this business and amazing people. Sheila and Orvelle are patient, knowledgeable, and true experts. They walk you through every step of the CCW process (even if you start it before taking their class). In short, I couldn't be happier and I'm giving their cards out like crazy. read more

If you are looking to get your CCW anywhere in the US you need to come to Orville's class. His class is run by Orville and his wife. Needless to say they do an excellent job in every aspect. SAFE, ORGANIZED, AND CLEAN are words I would use to describe both his class instruction and live fire classes. I had my Utah and Arizona CCW's in less than 2 months from taking his class. Now I'm on my California CCW and he takes time out of his day to help me write my good cause statement. In other words he follows up and helps you ALL the way through the process. You can defiantly tell that both him and his wife love what they do and actually care that you get your CCW. Can't beat it read more

I found this course as I was at the OC Indoor Range at Brea, CA. For those looking to get their CCW at Orange County, you're going to need to attend a class. The class taught by Orville well prepares you for the CCW process. I have no other CCW courses to compare this class to, but I do believe I received great value for what I paid. Thanks to Orville, you will be extremely well prepared for the application and interview process with the OC Sheriff. I like how Orville and his wife provided everything on site which is necessary to apply for the CCW. They do the photos, the LiveScan, photocopies, help filling out the application, and thorough and complete instructions on the entire process. They do it all in the office so that you don't need to go elsewhere for any of those items. Very efficient. Comfortable chairs for the participants are in the room with a large table for writing and taking notes during class. There are pens and hi liters and paper and notes and books which are provided. The class is taught at a pace which is not too slow for those who may be advanced and not too fast for those who may be early on in the gun handling/training process. I enjoyed how the course stressed certain aspects that will be important to remember as you're preparing to carry your CCW permit. I especially enjoyed how the class touched on some of the possible legal or social aspects of carrying a concealed weapon. The class is very hands on and Orville encouraged questions. Questions were addressed and answered politely and professionally. The second day with the live shooting at the range was very informative. I would usually feel a little unsafe standing next to someone with live ammunition in a line, but Orville seemed to have complete control of the range during the live fire session and provided clear and concise instructions. Orville, thank you for your time and professionalism. At first I thought I was just applying for a CCW just for something to have to be able to better protect or defend myself in case of an assault. But Orville also teaches that a gun should be used as a last resort. I hope that all of the rest of the instructors who teach the CCW class in Orange County is as caring and responsible and thorough as Orville. So if you are looking to apply for a CCW in Orange County, do not hesitate and give Orville a call. They will hold your hand and walk you through the complete process. They are responsive to emails and to phone calls which I always appreciate. Stop thinking about it and just make the call. If you pass the class, you'll leave with the certificate of completion that day. I believe everyone out there should be properly trained in the handling of firearms. You'll definitely get that with this course and Orville. read more

Excellent class, great instruction, and quick. Orville walks you through the process. I can't say the process will be as quick for everyone, but even with a live scan delay of 2 weeks, I had my permit 1 month after finishing the class. read more

I cannot say enough good things about CCW Permit Instruction course. Orville is a fantastic instructor with clear accurate teaching techniques. He keeps you engaged in the process of learning. You may think that you are knowledgeable on CCW laws but I guarantee that you will walk out of this course armed with material and knowledge that you were surprised that you didn't know or even thought that you needed to know. Safety Safety Safety : When you sign up for a course that involves live fire let's face it, you don't know the guy or gal to your right or left, how experienced they are handling a firearm. Orville and his range safety officer were EXTREMELY diligent in instructing and enforcing range safety. Last but definitely not least the lovely Shiella, Orville's wife. She made sure that the front office runs smoothly helping each student fill out paperwork correctly, answering questions easily with patients and knowledge. Great experience! I'll be back for renewal. 5 Stars read more

All I can say that I had a great experience they are very professional very safe and if you are looking to get your CCW it's the place to got to. Mr Orville was very helpful very clear when speaking and explaining the laws the rules In the shooting range while practicing couldn't feel any safer highly recommended read more

I have taken CCW Courses in KY, OH, and CO. The information in this course was on par with others. The classroom setting and comfort level was above and beyond other courses I have taken. Orville really thought about the convenience and comfort of the students when designing his program. Chairs are very comfortable for learning and the # of students is just right. That is not the case at all CCW courses. Orville does a great job covering material and moving through quickly and efficiently. One thing that I was surprised with is the marksmanship test. This is not a beginners shooting test. You must be able to put 72 bullets in a 6" diameter from 3,7,and 10yrds. Make sure you have practiced and feel comfortable shooting your firearm. Great Job Orville and Sheila, you guys run a great operation! read more

Great outfit. They're very helpful and it is a complete one stop shop for CCW training. They completely walk you through the process.

I attended class this weekend. Class was never dull or boring. The amount of information given and scenarios/stories to back up the info kept me interested the entire time. Orville does a great job and his wife is very thorough on the paper work. Great job. read more

Orville was a great instructor!! He was thorough and gave a lot of real life scenarios that greatly strengthen my knowledge base! I recommend Orville to anyone interested in taking the CCW course! I look forward to renewing my CCW with him in a couple years read more

Orville and Shiela do a phenomenal job running this business. They are very efficient and very competent in their job. Orville is a great instructor who know's how to mix in a little humor into the lessons and also note serious subjects when he arrives at them. The qualifications stage is very thorough, and Orville sets an excellent pace allowing his students to execute the motions calm and safely. Excellent choice of schooling for CCW read more

I took Orville's class this past weekend and it was a fantastic time. The professionalism that is demonstrated, along with the knowledge that Orville had to share with the class was first class.

I would definitely recommend this course to anyone interested in obtaining their CCW. read more

Comfortable, enjoyable and professional. I will be sending my daughter through his class. Need I say more? read more

Orville and Sheila are excellent. His coverage of the material and his humor made it fun and entertaining. The rang portion was also great and very safe, even with shooters of all skill sets. I will definitively go back to them when it is time to renew. read more

Orville and his wife did an amazing job making a girl like me feel safe, comfortable and approachable during the 2 day ccw class. He was informative and engaging so the 16 hours went by in a snap! I appreciate his continued sense of safety. I will be taking all my classes with them; I strongly suggest you do too! read more
