I had the fortune of being trained by Mr. Rick Staples.
He instilled in me, a higher performance standard for the basic police officer. I hope to never have to use the skills in the line of duty, but I know I possess them if it should ever hit the fan.

I've taken a 2 parts of a 3 part advanced pistol class with FL Firearms training. Need to shave the weight done before the last class its pretty involved.
Have gone to a couple small group classes with South Florida Gun School and I have another class next Sunday with the SFGS with all benefits going to Florida Carry. A grass toots political helping to promote of guns rights here in florida. Next year planning on carbine, long range rifle, and hoping to finish the advanced pistol class.

Lots of Law Enforcement training. Started with Montgomery Police Academy training back in '79. Basic 2 week handgun course, but I was fortunate to be taught by S.A. Jim Lagrone of the FBI. I learned a hell of a lot from Jim. Then in '92 I was certified by the FBI as a Police Firearms Instructor for revolver, semi-auto, and shotgun. I was on the SWAT team with Montgomery County Sheriff's Office (Alabama) and went through extensive training in that role. I've been to several additional "civilian" courses taught by Terry Hall and Will Faruga down in central Florida. I currently teach firearms courses.
Cheers y'all, Ken |

Same here, from local, state, and federal. I also had the fortune of training under H&K when they're training division was still active.
Once, we had Matt Burkett, come and do a one day seminar for free. It was great.

I have been very lucky to have a company this close to me, I have been through many of his courses and the training is top notch.
Anytime you can get training from Special Forces guys you they will train you until you drop. There is none of this stand and shoot, you are always moving and shooting under stress. http://blackskulltactical.com/ |

I have only had one weekend of formal training (From Robin Brown who regularly takes the trip from AZ to FL to provide training) , but I regularly practice the concepts learned each time my co-worker invites me to the action range he belongs to...
I look forward to more training, when funds and health permit! |
