A friend and I just completed Gordon's Fundamental & Intermediate Carbine Class this past weekend…read more As a firearms enthusiasts and weekly range geek, I can truly say that taking this class really opened my eyes on what my rifle and me are capable of doing. Main thing Gordon teaches is "safety first!" We all left with the same amount of holes we arrived in. As this is somewhat a beginners course, on the first day Gordon is extremely informative, knowledgeable, and patient in showing and teaching us the ins & outs of our AR15 platform rifles. He taught us how to zero our rifles from 10yds to 100yds, understanding of height over bore, proper stance, grip, and shooting technique. I've been shooting for many years and always thought they way I shoot was correct until Gordon gave me some pointers which elevated my accuracy by correcting my stance. All though day one was somewhat a refresher course for me, I couldn't wait for day two. I was addicted. On day two, it got more intense. We zero'd our carbines to a 50yd zero and started to learn various shooting positions. We went prone, side prone (left&right), on our backs, kneeling, etc. This is beyond what one can do at a shooting range. We even learned to transition from shoulder to shoulder and to shoot from concealment. I wasn't expecting this level of training for an beginner/intermediate carbine course. it doesn't matter if you have a noveske, POF, LaRue, rifle that is a safe queen or a PSA or Frankenstein rifle, taking it out and putting this tool to work is what these rifles are made for. Gordon has taught me the the fundamentals of my rifle and how to become a safe and respectable operator. As this is my first firearms training class I've taken, I can truly say that I had more fun in 2 days than I did by going to the range every weekend for the past few years. I'm already signing up for his handgun course in September and his carbine skill builder course in October. Anyone who wants to learn more and build a solid foundation on firearms safety should take this class. For the price, you will not go wrong. Hands down to the training LEO and Military personnel has gone through. It is tough and exhilarating.

Training: #SAFETYFIRST#GRAYOPS…read moreEach class starts with speaking the 4 rules of handgun safety and explanation of each. Training is always a little intimidating even more so when the words handgun or firearm is in front of Training. Gray Ops Instructors walk you through those uneasy feelings of intimidation. Each exercise is explained thoroughly and made sure you understand each step without the drill Sargent mentality.#SafetyFirst They are also Safety Instructors in my mind. The outcome in their classes beg to question..."Do I have the same holes God gave me, Am I more confident in handling a firearm, Have I become a more competent firearm handler??? The answer is a BIG YES! I give 5 plus stars.

Earlier this year, I took the Hostile Environments: Basic Defensive Pistol Application course rom…read moreLEO Defensive Concepts for the CCW requirement and to build my skillset. I was very impressed from my first interaction with Joe Leonardo. His team is made up of professionals with a tremendous amount of experience in law enforcement and professional firearm training. Their discipline and thoroughness permeates everything that they do, from preparing students for the class, through the running of the class, both in the classroom and on the range. The course not only instructs students in the proper use of their firearm, but includes critically important lessons regarding scenarios, proper responses, and how to think about and prepare for various scenarios. The course expanded my knowledge and capabilities significantly, but also reminded me that training is a journey vs. a destination. The most important takeaways for me were the reminder of the importance of ongoing training, proper practice, and developing and reinforcing good behaviors. Joe, Nick, and team are great instructors, and I look forward to taking more courses with them. If others want to develop their skills from solid professionals with discipline, patience, and a passion for doing things correctly, LEO Defensive Concepts is a great option.

Of course none of us were informed of this and the owner, Joe Leonardo allowed this without a waiver from the students. Great, just what I need a picture of me with a gun.

You can tell he has many years of experience both tactical and medical. He has a good sense of humor just don't lie to him, or you're in for some roasting lol. After taking the course, I feel much more confident in carrying a firearm. Overall, I had a great experience taking the course and would highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in learning more about firearms, medical, or obtaining their CCW.

We were able to watch and analyze some world events that took place due to recklessness and lack of gun safety and it was a small class so we were able to deep dive onto questions and scenarios without feeling rushed. The class had a variety of ages which was also nice to be able to meet new people of various backgrounds with a common goal of increased safety and comfort with hand guns. The staff were warm and professional and I can't wait to complete my course.

JT coached us on how to coach children in baseball, but I have already implemented these "golden" tools toward ALL other relationships in my life, including my husband and our 8 year old daughter. He very much connects with everyone he talks to and meets them on all of their different levels. Thank you for teaching me how to "set the table" and meet my players where they are standing right now THEN taking them to where THEY want to go. Your messages are powerful! It was my biggest pleasure sitting in on your talk and shaking your hand at the end. If I could give anyone advice for anything in life it would be to reach out to JT the Mentor and watch how he touches your life. His energy is contagious and his messages are empowering!
