Good organization with plenty of both structure and organic discussion. Ask whatever you want, no rush. And very knowledgeable.

We all know things do not always go the way they are supposed to and that is just how life is. What is most important is when there is an issue that the issue is acknowledged and resolved quickly. Arizona Defensive Firearms Training is a company that does just that. If you are looking to get the requisite training certficiation for a CCW permit which is what I was in need of, then I encourage you to go to Arizona Defensive Firearms Training. The ownership is top notch, strives to provide a quality product (service) and has years of experience with firearms, therefore is well set up to provide you the certification you are seeking. I highly recommend Arizona Defensive Firearms Training.

I enjoyed that day so much, I signed up for Rock Mountain Defense CCW class. Then I had fun trying to do the Navy Seal Rifle qualification course.

I care a lot about a persons background and history when I am paying for a class. Jon, being a retired Phoenix Police Officer, has practical insight​ on defense with a rifle. He is an NRA instructor as well. I felt very comfortable learning from both him and his wife. I encourage new shooters to take their courses. You won't be disappointed.

Honestly too many things to list. So worth the the time to check them out.

We had general knowledge of handgun defense, but found we were severely unprepared for real world scenarios with stress involved, when you only have seconds to react. I highly recommend this class as an intro to this training company. I believe they are amongst the top in the country when in comes to tactics that actually work and keep you alive. Mike starts out with the philosophy of the Warrior Mindset and then shows how every aspect of life should be approached with this mindset. The class was worth more than the money, and the smaller class size helped personalize each person's training for where their skill level is currently at. We will be taking more classes with these guys. Kyle and Ashlyn Combes

For context, I have never attended any formal firearm training before taking the CCW class offered…read moreby Mental Marksmanship. I was in the Scouts, shot a few rounds with my brother before, and my father owned a gun. However, that being said, I imagine that even those with extensive experience will end up taking away something valuable from these two brilliant instructors, making the price for this course well worth what you pay. For additional context, I purchased a discounted voucher via Groupon, but I was so happy with the experience that I am looking for additional courses by these instructors and would be happy to pay the full list price (which is already competitive with other course prices) This course was about so much more than just gun safety, the laws, and how to concealed carry. While we did get into proper gun handling safety and techniques, the overarching theme was the Mental aspect. At first I thought the name Mental Marksmanship was targeted for people "Crazy" about guns. This assumption, was far from the case. What I found was that the instructors were raising really thought provoking questions. I went home really thinking about the impacts of carrying a gun. They really hit home on not just the legal ramifications of owning a gun, but several other areas which I will leave for them to share with you. Additionally, the primary instructor is incredibly qualified to be teaching- I can't remember all the details, but I do remember he served in high up leadership roles for law enforcement for many many years. He's seen it all, and I immediately felt comfortable and respected what he had to share. His assistant was also wonderful, qualified, and really emphasized the "Mental" aspect of this course. The two really complimented each other. Lastly, I had no expectations of this course, content wise. It was close by and had great reviews for a great prices. I was just looking to get a CCW, but ended up taking home so much more. Attending with an open mind will grant you an incredible experience.
