The course was very engaging/hands-on. They are "newbie friendly" when it comes to firearm knowledge, and will teach you the very basics of handling a firearm. This place also has many advanced lessons you can take as well. I will be recommending this place to my friends/family. I will also be looking into the other courses they offer.

In two days we covered responsible firearm use, home defense planning, conflict avoidance, situational awareness, and more. Gary will not let you leave his class without knowing how to properly handle a firearm. You'll gain a thorough understanding of Illinois firearm laws and confidence to continue to improve your skills at the range. Before heading to the range for the shooting portion of the class, Gary and Joe will help each student practice proper shooting stance and correct any issues with sight picture. You will be responsible for range fee, ammunition, and fingerprints in addition to course fee.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! He made getting my firearm so easy! This was my first firearm purchase so I did…read morenot fully understand how it worked. I thought when you buy a firearm online or out of the state they just ship it to your home...lol! NOT! It goes through a third party who receive the firearm, help you fill out the paperwork, run your background and eventually once all is clear hand you your new baby of protection. John and his wife were super helpful, knowledgeable and very kind. They keep you updated and informed every step of the way. The process was easy (outside of waiting extra time for my background to clear, which was no fault from them that's just slow ass Illinois State Police) and affordable ($40 cash). I will most definitely use them again.

I just wanted to say that I had a great experience working with John. He was professional,…read morecourteous, friendly, and efficient. I am a new gun buyer and he took the time to explain the process, and not make me feel stupid or embarrassed when I asked questions. His prices are more than fair given all of the price gouging that is going on right now. I won't go anywhere else when buying guns online in the future. Great job John! Clay

We decided to take the 3 day Concealed Carry training Thursday, Friday & Sunday…read more We paid $185.25 for finger prints, equipment rental and Application assistance fee. The Class is completely FREE of charge, do not assume that the initial price paid will include the fee for the Concealed license, that fee is a additional $153.38 once you have finished the course and applied online. The shooting range is not in this establishment you have to go to another location for that part of the course. The instructor Mr. Devell is extremely knowledgeable in his task and he will make sure that when you leave his class you are as well. Mr. Devell can also be a bit condescending and can in my opinion use better peoples skills. Mr Devell also uses a lot of profanity during his class and does not take inconsideration the respect for Seniors. The classes never started on time and it was a lot of valuable information to cover. Is a bit unorganized as is only Mr. Devell teaching but also trying to multitask everything else so expect long wait lines for signatures and photos. The establishment is clean and the staff is very helpful. Did we learn? Yes Would I recommend someone to go? I would with a fair warning of all the things I mentioned before. We also decided to make a purchase and Ricardo Rodriguez was very helpful in answering all of questions and helping us with the online application process for the license.

I had even called on 04/08/2022 the next day to confirm that the order went through. I saw the email stated "All orders process and ship within 3-10 business days upon receipt of full payment and a valid FFL." Because of this, during my call, I tried to confirm that since this is just a shroud, that I will not need any FFL since this part doesn't require it. The person on the phone was very clearly not paying attention, didn't listen to my question, and just replied with, "oh is this an online order? yeah those ship from our warehouse" awesome, not any information that I asked for, nor anything useful. Useless staff. Useless website as well as they make you submit a message through their website which is faulty and doesn't ever give confirmation that a message was sent, nor any email confirmation that one was sent. Contacted several times, no reply, and now out ~$80 and having to dispute through my bank since they do not answer messages, emails, or calls with any competence. Bottom line, do not buy from here as many others have listed, scam company with 0 IQ employees.

I highly recommend this business. Chris is an excellent instructor. He knows the laws, answers the questions and encourages students to reach out after the class with questions or how to navigate the online registration for CCL. Chris is very nice and has a nice sense of humor. Went to the range to qualify and I was very nervous as it has been a while since I went shooting. Chris helped me throughout the whole shooting process, giving me instructions and tips on how to load, check, stand, etc. Absolutely go to HBT. Worth it.
