Great experience at Pistol Protection Plus with Alan. I've been shooting for years but in states…read moremore friendly to hand gun ownership than CT. I was introduced to Alan and PP Plus through a friend who also took the class here. We did the course on a Wed. We only had 3 people in the class, two had never handled a gun before, one male one female. They both left pretty excited about the experience and shooting pretty well I was actually really impressed with Alans attention to Safety details but also he coached them on marksmenship. The class took a good portion of the day and then we went to the range where Alan had 10 guns of many different calibers and sizes for the class to shoot. NET NET what a great experience. I feel safe and secure with handguns after my time with Alan and Pistol Protection Plus. Really great experience. This is the place to get your concealed carry pistol permit in CT.

What can I say about Chris' Indoor Range? For starters, it offers everything you could want from…read morean indoor shooting range. Everyone from a first time beginner to the seasoned pro would find this range welcoming. I have been visiting Chris' for a long time and can say this with honesty. The staff are friendly and are willing to help. If you need some pointers on how to shoot better or have a malfunction that seemingly cannot be solved you can turn to them for assistance. Chris' also has a decent selection of ammo available at reasonable prices for those shooting on the range, especially for .22LR which can be difficult to find these days. They also have events every Thursday night of various types and calibers. Some people might take issue with the recently instated policy of the range, that is, you must posses a CT Permit to Carry Pistols and Revolvers or have attended a safety class to shoot on the line. I personally take no issue with this policy as it creates a much safer environment for everyone in attendance, and safety is always the number one concern when handling/operating firearms. Every CT citizen who is interested in shooting, either as a hobby, a sport or as a means of serious personal protection, should seek to obtain their CT permit and Chris' offers the NRA approved safety class which is your first step to obtaining your permit. I have met a lot of new friends at Chris', many of whom I can call by first name. It is a very social atmosphere which firearms aficionados and those new to world of firearms can find themselves comfortable in. Many years, multiple training classes attended under industry professionals. Unquantifiable amount of rounds expended. Chris' still remains my local range I come to for weekly practice.

5 Stars - Highly Recommend!…read more I cannot say enough good things about my experience with the Pistol Certificate class at Safe and Secure! From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and at ease, which was a huge deal for me--I came in with a real fear of guns. Dan, our instructor, completely transformed that fear into confidence and respect through his patient and professional approach. Dan is simply incredible. He has a calm, non-intimidating teaching style that puts even the most nervous students (like me!) at ease. He never rushed the process, took his time with each of us individually, and ensured that we understood the safety procedures, handling, and mechanics of a firearm before moving on. I never felt pressured or overwhelmed at any point during the training. One of the standout things about this class is how thorough and hands on it is. Dan not only explained the laws and safety rules clearly but also guided us step-by-step through all the state and local paperwork required to obtain our gun permits. He made sure everything was filled out correctly and answered every question with patience and clarity. What really impressed me was how focused the course was on safety, responsibility, and proper mindset. This wasn't just about checking a box to get a permit--this was real education and empowerment. By the end of the class, I felt confident, informed, and prepared--not just to legally own a firearm, but to handle one safely and respectfully. I'm honestly looking forward to taking more advanced classes with Dan and his wife in the future. If you're looking into getting your pistol permit, or if you're nervous like I was, don't hesitate, this is the class to take. You'll walk out smarter, safer, and stronger. Thank you for a great class and thank you for serving!

Jeanine and Joe were especially knowledgeable making the entire process extremely educational. Both new everything I needed to complete the process and were able to help me with my town application too. Joe's experience was especially helpful when it came to firing at the range. At no point did I feel uncomfortable handling a fire arm. He's a very good instructor. In addition when I submitted my application to the town I live in today there was a bit of a hold up with the paper work at no fault of Goldeneye's. Jeannine was readily available by phone to assist and resolve the issue. As a business owner myself I was blown away with this type of service. They're main goal is clear. They want people to be safe. They offer a variety of other safety training programs my wife and I will be attending to soon. Thank You again Joe and Jeanine!
