I have been shooting pistols for about 30 years. [Liberty Defense was] able to identify the bad habits I have developed and help me to overcome them.

I’m so grateful walking away from this course with the confidence of knowing how to load, unload, check, and shoot a gun. The greatest gift is knowing how to handle and properly check a gun!
