Michael is an EXCELLENT Concealed Carry Instructor! He's an NRA certified instructor, so don't let…read moreit worry you that he holds classes in his home. He's extremely professional, has a great demeanor & delivers the content in a clear-to-understand manner. He's also fantastic with kids (he does a kids handgun safety course, as well as other adult handgun classes). In his home, it's a more intimate environment as he limits headcount. This allows for more absorption of the class content and important safety guidelines. Live fire after class is right in his backyard. His flexibility, cost and delivery all make Michael a great choice for your CC Training.

My husband & I have been talking about taking a concealed carry class for years now, but I was…read morealways hesitant to do so because I never felt experienced enough. Michael Pegram & Jared did a GREAT job and made me feel right at ease. Whether it was familiarizing beginners with the fundamentals of gun safety, teaching how to wisely think defensively, or making sure we knew NC gun control laws, each part of the day trained me FAR better than when I walked in. Not once did I ever feel out of my league or silly for asking questions. Awesome instructors, awesome class. If you're wanting your concealed carry, this is the class for you!

I recently completed the PPSB training course at Premier Training Academy's Charlotte location-…read morehighly effective and professionally delivered! Donnie and Ernie are consummate professionals whose extensive real-world experience lends credibility to their training. They also have enough insight to recognize that students arrive with widely varying skill levels and prior exposure. Their blocks of instruction are thoughtfully sequenced and clearly articulated, allowing trainees to absorb complex material at a manageable pace while progressively building confidence. Although some of the curriculum set forth by PPSB is a bit cumbersome, they organized the content to fit within the three-day format. The standard is the standard and no shortcuts or "gimmies" are given, but even novice shooters can achieve it by paying attention and applying the principles. Of note, the discussion of physiological responses under acute stress definitely helped on practice day. Unlike similar courses I've attended in years past where instructors project an air of bravado, Donnie and Ernie struck an ideal balance: personable, engaging, and approachable while maintaining an unwavering seriousness about safety. This fosters a relaxed but focused learning environment that greatly benefits folks with lesser experience. This PPSB-compliant armed security training prioritizes genuine safety, skill development, and student success over ego. PTA is top-shelf! God bless the both of you gents. Ed

I will be bringing my wife and daughters here as well for some specialized training and I cannot thank these guys enough for what a tremendously excellent time we had.
