Instructors had up to date knowledge of the laws in illinois. And were willing to take the time with each individual to help them achieve success.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I recently completed the three-hour Illinois Concealed Carry renewal class with Jimmy Santoianni and had a great experience. The class was very well organized, informative, and genuinely enjoyable. Jimmy is an excellent instructor -knowledgeable, engaging, and funny, while still keeping the material focused and professional.

The shooting qualification at the nearby range was also very well managed, with clear instructions and an appropriate emphasis on safety throughout.

Overall, a very positive experience and an easy recommendation for anyone needing to complete their Illinois CCL renewal training.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very hands on and detailed. The instructor reassured me multiple times when I felt uncomfortable during range and that gave me the courage to finish. Thank you.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience taking this concealed carry renewal class. The instructor was extremely knowledgeable and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. They kept the class engaging, interactive, and even made it fun, which made the time fly by. You can tell they have a lot of experience and genuinely care about making sure everyone leaves with a better understanding of firearm safety and the law. I highly recommend this class to anyone needing to renew their concealed carry permit or looking to refresh their knowledge.
