This was a great class. The class was very thorough, and flowed well. When I first heard it was going to be about 4 hours, I was concerned that it was going to be boring, and feel like it was taking forever. Chris made the class so interesting, and interacted with us so well, that the time flew by.

Mr Marquette is very knowledgeable of the laws especially when and not to carry if law enforcement questions you about are you have any weapons in your vehicle give the correct answer and never lie I learned very much that I thought i knew the laws etc Chris is the most knowledgeable ccw instructor i have attended many ccw classes to hear all options Chris is number 1 in my observation

Jennifer
This was exactly the class I needed. So informative, I have zero experience with firearms along with a deep-seated fear due to a childhood trauma. Chris took extra time to work with me personally to make sure I was comfortable and able to complete the process. This was an excellent experience and the perfect class for me.

Miranda
Amazing class, was easy to follow along and the instructor was very funny

Kim
I had previously taken the online course this summer and was impressed with the information it contained but I am so glad I chose to join my husband in the classroom. The scenarios and training you provide are great. There are so many things a person doesn’t even think about when you hear the term personal safety. Thank you again for your professionalism and training.

Jeremy
The class was very interesting. I learned a lot…I thought the teacher did good explaining everything so we could understand with a good personality that made the class very enjoyable…Great job Chris! I recommend taking this class. It was a good experience.

Very informative and well-presented. Your knowledge is our lifeline and even with the f this and f that it was a great class. It went a little long but I didn’t mind because I was getting something out of it.

Gavin
Very good class and very informative. I took a concealed carry class for Wisconsin and this one covered far more material and was way more helpful

Randy
Given the pandemic, we greatly appreciate the flexibility of taking the course online and meeting up with you at the range after your class at the Winona gun range. Saved a lot of travel time for us which we may otherwise may not have done. The online course was very nicely laid out. A great feature is a person can re-read and digest things at their own pace and even go back as necessary to really let things sink in.

Todd
The material was great and relevant. Open to answering questions as weird as some were and controlled some participants well.

John 
Very informative, and opened my eyes to the responsibility of having a permit to carry. Chris was an excellent teacher and very knowledgeable. Had some good laughs too. Highly recommend his class.

It’s a lot of information all at once. However, I can handle that. Grateful that I could rent a firearm. Thankful that I saw a First Aid kit.

Really good class overall! Chris was a great instructor who kept what could have been a pretty boring class very interesting. He explained a lot of the detailed laws regarding the carry permit in a very approachable way. By the end of the class, I felt fully prepared to be a responsible permit holder.

I loved the class. It was informational and intriguing at the same time. I would take the class again.

I think this class was great and well worth the money spent on not only learning about firearm safety and handling but also self-defense. I would recommend this class to anyone looking into carrying a gun and protecting themselves, their family, and home.

The class was great. Chris is down-to-earth and real. Information was easily understood and the use of humor helps to make it not as dry. The outdoor range was a bit chilly, but Chris did a great job moving everyone through quickly.

I thought Chris did a great job. It was well organized including the information sent prior to the class. The class had a wide margin of experience and knowledge and Chris was able to speak on all levels. He also made it entertaining and kept the class moving so it didn’t feel too long and drawn out. I would recommend this class to anyone considering enrolling in a Permit to Carry course.

Anonymous
As a prosecutor, I generally agreed with your interpretation of applicable laws, with a few minor exceptions- nothing I felt was important enough to speak up and correct you about. I thought you did a nice job of impressing upon the class the importance of using your firearm as an absolute last resort. I thought the time went quickly, and I learned a lot about the use of a handgun. I am a first-time handgun owner and user, and I felt your class prepared me well enough to feel comfortable in owning and using a handgun.

It was an excellent class with a fantastic teacher. I definitely learned a lot of information that I was not aware of before ever taking a class like this.

This was the best firearm training I have ever had. That would include the well-known gun range located here in Rochester. The class was quite expansive and covered a great deal of material. It made clear some legal aspects of firearm training, use, and ownership that I was not aware of. I am very happy that I took this training from Chris. I now feel much more confident about my ownership and use of a firearm.

Mike
I appreciated the fact that you spent time on different situations and scenarios that require different gun-use responses. My last instructor kinda glossed over these scenarios and just told me to do my own investigations. Best class ever!

Richard
Great class. Need to stay on schedule,

Adam
Great class, and very informative.

Jason
This is the best concealed carry class in our area that I’m aware of. Chris does a great job, with facts, and information about how the courts work in different situations. How to handle issues, and insight into things people can do in their homes to help protect their families and loved ones. Gun safety, how a gun works, how to buy a gun, the best way to carry a gun. All these questions that people have. Answered with informative and understandable answers.

Carol
Wonderful training with lots of real-life situations as examples. Chris provides good advice and is willing to answer any and all questions.

Greg
Very good class. In comparison to my last class, this one was about 500% better. I actually learned some information about what you should and can do, and what you should not do. Good examples of cases were very helpful. Last class, I learned nothing, other than how you can shoot yourself when cleaning your gun(the instructor told us he did that to himself and seemed pretty proud of the fact). This class was very fast-moving, informative, and easy to understand the main points. I do think that to have to take this same class every time you renew is rather ridiculous.

Mackenzie
Very knowledgeable and a wonderful experience!!

I really enjoyed Chris’ class more than the initial class that I took almost five years ago with another guy. Chris presents all of his education material in a way that makes it interesting and memorable for his students using case scenarios, videos, and physical objects.

Jake
Good class

David
Very detailed and informative and I came away with a new perspective on the responsibilities of being a conceal-and-carry individual…also to always do a clearance check on every gun I pick up and never take someone’s word it is empty…I went and purchased a subcompact later that day and sure enough, the clerk handed it to me from the display case without taking the mag out or clear slide..before this class I would have looked at it with no 2nds thoughts that it could be loaded…this was emphasized a lot and definitely needed to be emphasized repeatedly in class…..I learned a lot

Chris really knows his stuff.  I took the class from Chris several years ago but never completed my permit process.    He was such a good teacher, that I hunted him down when I was ready to retake the class and start the process again.  We spent an extensive amount of time learning how to be safe and avoid situations where you need to use your weapon to defend yourself or others. I especially appreciate his candor about what is likely to happen in the unfortunate event you are forced to use your weapon.  Excellent instruction.  Thank you!

Katie
Amazing class! I learned so much. He was an excellent instructor. I’d definitely recommend this class.

Jon
The class was ever informational got a lot out of the class.

Stephanie
As a woman who has never fired anything a day in her life….besides the day before class. I feel the class was very informative. I do realize guns can be different. I do realize you probably don’t get many people like me in your class. However, it may be best to maybe find out if there are any 1st timers…I know we went over gun parts, as far as the basics of how the gun works on the inside. Maybe that section could be a bit more detailed than rushed threw if you have newbies like me….like I said…I’m sure it’s not often. You do get a lot of info out there in a short period of time…Thank you so much!

Forrest
Very good class with a lot to learn and to take in. He is very knowledgeable

Robert
The class went longer than expected.  However, I believe it was well worth it.  There were a lot of good scenarios we ran through.  The instructor gave a nice breakdown of the laws surrounding the subject itself.  The instructor did a great job coaching on the live fire exercise.

Jeremiah
Very informative and fun class.

I really liked the class. the instructor was great, really knew his stuff. Learned a lot.

Not sure if this was the email we were supposed to reply to, but guess it doesn’t matter too much. Thanks for the class yesterday!! After I left I had to do a few work items and then meet at a co-worker’s place (she was interested in a carry weapon) I tried to explain a fair amount about your course and Highly suggested she and her husband attend one in the future. They are from near Genoa, Wis. In fact even after church today, a few of us were talking about stuff like this and being prepared, so to speak. My son sort of suggested that he would work up some kind of plan for us if the council wanted it. But because of the group of people at the time, it never went anywhere. More folk are convinced it will never happen to them.

Joel
very thorough job

Thomas
Very informative. Doesn’t just teach the bare minimum. Tells you what you need to know plus steps to prevent you from ever getting into a situation where you would need to use your firearm. Goes over actual cases and breaks them down on what is right and if it goes wrong the exact moment it went wrong and how to avoid that.

Very informative

Trouble
A bit redundant (second renewal) but the information was fresh and timely.  All info was essential, especially for a first-timer just starting out  The scenarios were especially good thought-provoking, and useful as were the potential penalties if you make a mistake.  I truly enjoyed the class and (re)learned a lot.

The class was very informational for myself and my wife who also took class! Made us both more aware of situations and how to properly carry a firearm in public! The class went by super fast and would definitely recommend having Chris be your permit-to-carry instructor!!!

Tina
The class was very thorough. Not sure if there is a handbook on laws for handgun use in MN, but maybe that would be something to include (kind of like the hunting/fishing handbooks). We were informed to have/bring our handguns, maybe where you are giving the class they inform participants that it is not necessary to take the class. Otherwise, you instruct a great class 🙂

Absolutely love your class. The knowledge and insight you leave us with is second to none. You keep it real, honest, and truthful.

Good information. It was about the right amount of time scheduled. Not too much discussion but I could see that if there was it would run late…..which in my view would be ok. This class is good info for many, not just people seeking a C&C license. Good job Chris M.

Joshua
2nd the time taking the class. I live in Rochester which to my knowledge doesn’t off the class there. I gladly take the drive to Winona. If he is still doing this class when I’m due again I’ll definitely be attending it a third time. Very informative. If you’re new to shooting he is very patient and will work with you if it’s needed. Great instructor and a great class. So go sign up if you’re reading this online!!

At first, I was worried about the class being 5 hours long. I thought I would get bored and possibly even fall asleep. It was quite the opposite. The class was extremely informative and entertaining which made time fly by. The instructor covered more information than I could have anticipated. It was extremely interesting to learn about self-defense, safe rooms, and how to interpret and react to different situations. I knew I would need to learn about gun safety and laws but this class offered so much more than just the basics. The instructor answered so many questions I had going into this experience before I even had the chance to ask. I love that different scenarios were given and that questions were asked: “What would you do?” What”is this justified, why or why not.”. These scenarios really made me use critical thinking in situations I hope never to be in. The biggest takeaway I got from the class is “protect life, not property.” With all that is going on in the world today, I feel better knowing I have a better chance (not a guarantee) that I can protect my children. I hope to see Chris in 5 years when I have to renew:)

The class was VERY extensive. We were taught all of the laws that involve carrying a handgun. I can not imagine a better course to take to improve your knowledge of carrying a firearm. I learned more than I thought I would and was very happy with the course. $80 is an absolute steal for this course.

Alan
Great class

The class is always knowledgeable.

Being a veteran, I was impressed how the class was taught. Chris also explains the law pretty good. It wasn’t rushed, and it was explained in simple terms.  I do recommend this course, if for nothing else just to refresh yourself.   

John 
Very informative, funny at times teacher new his shit.

Dan 
It was a informative class with very valuable information. He went through all the specifics of the laws and knew what he was talking about with laws/lawyers to back it up. As a renewal, I feel much more comfortable carrying than I did after my first class with someone else.

Todd 
Chris is extremely knowledgeable and presents the permit to carry information in an “easy to understand” method.  The use of videos and scenarios help drive home the topics.

As my first time in the class i believe that Chris was an amazing teacher he used comedy which everyone loves and Chris taught us situations that the average civilian could encounter and educated us not to scare us but to truthfully give us the knowledge of what could happen in any situation.

Chris was once again very knowledgeable and made sure everybody understood what he was saying. It is a comfortable class for people that are both inexperienced and experienced people. Strongly recommend class to anybody that is thinking about it.

Tim
Class was great and very informative!

Olivia
Very good class. I was very nervous going into it but the instructor and environment was so welcoming and open. I immediately felt at ease. I’m glad I took the class as well, very educational and eye opening in many ways! Thank you again!

Cory
Great class, really appreciated the extra time you spent with me at the change going through the whole process considering my lack of experience.

Nicholas
I feel I got much more out of sitting through Chris’ class rather than taking it online. He was an excellent teacher, and answered all my questions! I will definitely be returning for my renewal, because this man is an expert in this field!

Nancy
I really liked this class, you kept me focus, and spoke loud enough that I was able to hear….Thank you!!

Mike
I shadowed Chris in this class last weekend to become a instructor myself. This was hands down the BEST class I have ever experienced. I feel like I know a large amount on firearms and training in general, and I learned a ton of information that I didn’t know before. I would recommend this class to anyone and everyone. If you’re new to firearms or have been shooting your whole, this class is for everyone. The class covered every topic from handgun safety and operation all the way to legal information and scenarios. I’m still blown away by how much I learned. Chris also provides 100% satisfaction guarantee which many others don’t. Well done Chris one of a kind class, you will NOT find another class like this! I look forward to learning so much more from you.

Kaitlyn
I learned a lot from this class, not just about a permit to carry but general home safety as well. Chris is very knowledgeable and helpful. I would strongly recommend this class to everyone.

Patrick
Great class,Thank you look forward to your class in another 5 years.

Chris did a great job! My husband and I both took the class with him.

Chris, This is the most comprehensive gun class I have taken. I left the class with such a broader understanding of self defense and a far higher level of understanding and responsibility toward the decision making of the of deadly force. Extremely impressed with your knowledge means of getting that duplicated to the masses of asses. Have already recommended you to a friend and am feeling a responsibility to do more meaningful practice. Thanks.

Steve
Chris I would like to thank you for the class today. I have learned a lot not only of rules and regulations but also just the simplicity of difference in hand guns. I walked in today knowing about shot guns and some rifles etc. hand guns where not my thing at all but after today’s class I feel comfortable shooting and dis arming loaded hand guns. I would also like to take your class on pistols/hand guns to better improve my knowledge of firearms. Thanks again look forward to talking soon.

Phenomenal class. I would highly recommend this to anyone and I already have!! It not only was a class on a permit to carry but included personal and home safety. A wake up call to stay out of the white zone” You offered alternatives to carrying a weapon that I could suggest to a friend to feel safe with. There may have been some that came to the class to get their certification for a “Permit to Carry” however as a responsible instructor you reminded us of the responsibility and the laws that go with the permit to carry. Thank you for giving your time to share your passion.

Vince
I enjoyed the class. You are a great instructor and it shows that u really care about people and teaching them the right way to go about doing things. I will definitely be telling friends about the class and hopefully get a few of them to take it with you. Thanks for a great day, being able to shoot your gun and the conversation. I look forward to being able to carry and feel a lot more safe and knowledgeable about the process.

James
Great class, won’t change a thing!

The class was very informative and felt it was very well taught.

Calvin
I’ve been around firearms all of my life (40 years) and have told a lot of people what you also mentioned about your children. Teach them respect, let them shoot and expose firearms to them. Takes out the novelty and makes kids respect them. Enjoyed the class and enjoyed the legal aspects of what you taught. Obviously some of the material covered will be redundant if a person is familiar/comfortable with firearms.

James
You were an amazing instructor and you kept the class funny while also being serious and informative.

VERY good class..we were very impressed. The class was very informative. You did a good job of keeping the class moving along; the PP usage was very engaging and I never found myself looking at my watch! I want all my family members to take the class whether they decide to carry or not as the safety part of it is something everyone needs to hear. I’ve told them all about having a home protection plan and each one has said that they’ve never thought of that before but agreed they need one. thanks much for taking your time to teach others about this important subject!

Adam
Excellent class made it very easy for me to understand.

David
The information was presented in a professional manner. The instructor was very knowledgeable about the subject matter and presentation was pleasant.

I felt that Chris had a lot of experience, insight, and expertise that he shared with the class. I feel that I got more than my money’s worth by having him give his phone number and email for support for the 5 year term of the permit. I would and already have recommended this class to my friends and family. Thank you.

Heather
Great class. Really made you think. Learned a lot

Curtis
Very Good class. Thank you for the advice.

The class population was way larger than I anticipated, however it didn’t interfere with core topics. the lecture platform was hard to imagine but the content kept it moving forward and kept your interest. The option to not pay for the class until after it is complete is a nice feature. If you find that you do not want to follow thru with getting certified, the option to walk away without having to pay is un heard of! Over all I would highly recommend your class. great job educating!

Laura
Everything else was great, and I would highly recommend the course.

Robert
This course was very informative. I took a permit class years ago, not yours, and it wasn’t even close in information and professionalism. I will definitely recommend Precision to others.

Caitlin
Loved the class, loved the humor. Laid back, didn’t try to scare us off, but rather inform us, which I’m grateful for. Did an excellent job, especially under pressure with their elite audience.

Brian
Chris, Thanks again for allowing me to join. Mark and I enjoyed your class and feel much better about handling a firearm. Your flow of the class was very good and you kept it interesting. 4 hrs is a long time to talk and the time went by fast. The videos were impactful and I would add more if you can. Thanks again Brian

I think what was so helpful is that this isn’t “only” about getting a piece of paper so that I can carry, but in fact there are many things you can do for yourself and your loved ones before you’d ever need to use your weapon. People are reminded of that, many times, in your class. You give many real life pointers.

Carol
Your class was more informative and interesting that my last class at Cabelas.

I thought the class moved along really well. I especially liked when you spoke about situational awareness. I believe that to be very important and you covered it thoroughly.

Very knowledgeable, it was a great experience and all the information about every situation will help everyone in the future. I learned many things that i didn’t know before i entered the class. Thank you for the great class.

Class size was a bit larger than I expected but you kept the class moving along nicely. Felt a little more range time would have been nice but understand the class was running a bit behind schedule. Would take your class again in the future and will recommend it to friends. Thank you.

knowing that your mind was elsewhere….. (baby) You did a fantastic job! THANX, I did learn a lot.

The class was full of great information and was presented to us extremely well. I think that the women only class was perfect for some of us that had no experience with guns.

Travis
Good class; provided information needed.

Courtney
Thought it was a great class!

I thought Chris covered everything very well. I know I certainly learned a lot. The atmosphere was very nice I feel that I got my money’s worth. If anyone is looking to get their permit to carry give Chris a call.

Great class thanks again!

Very well informative on several different questionable categories. Felt like any questions I was ready to ask, got answered before I needed to ask them. Thank you very much

I thought the class was great. Very thorough, and I liked that you have so many tips for home protection plans etc. That was an element that I was unaware that would be included with training, but thoroughly enjoyed.

Alan
Very informative enjoyed class

Douglas
As a person who has held a gun in his hands since a very young age and a firm believer in my Second Amendment rights I came away from this class with much more knowledge than I ever expected too. I felt super comfortable in the classroom the hours flew by with the humor and excellent instructions and even the range test was extremely knowledgeable I will definitely recommend to anyone who is trying to obtain or renew his or her carry permit

Monica
I got way more out of this class than I was expecting to. I was very impressed with the information on all the options on defending yourself in addition to guns, and having a safety plan for if someone unwelcome enters your home.

Rich
I got alot out of this class and I want my wife and daughter to take it ASAP!!!

Rachel
I enjoyed your class very much. I learned more than I thought I would. The reason I wanted to take the class was so that if my boyfriend ever left his gun in my vehicle, I would be ok and not get in trouble. I now know that I want to be able to protect my family and myself. I feel more confident in being able to carry a gun safely and know when and how to use it. Thank you!!

Cassandra
We got the information that would make us safe while being a Permit to Carry holder. It was a very educational course including things that I would have never thought about before taking the class. I am going to definitely recommend this class to everyone I know. He gave us resources to find information on our own as well as explained the law thoroughly.

Pauline
I must say, I’ve had a lot of training in self defense with my work; and this is by far the best class I have ever taken. This instructor left me feeling more self confident about being able to understand the use and providing the knowledge of using a firearm for my own self defense should the occasion arise. I feel more confident in my handling of a pistol after this much needed, very informative class. Chris, our instructor was very pleasant, very sure of himself and show us respect and taught us how to and what to look for if we feel threatened……I would very highly recommend this class, and will do so to my husband so he too can take this class in the very near future, which is sometime in early November….I thank Chris so much for all of his help, he is an awesome instructor……

Mark
Thought you had great patience with some of the members in the class! Mixture of humor was good!

I will admit I was really nervous about taking the class considering my knowledge of guns is limited. I enjoyed the class very much and now have more confidence in not only the gun safety aspect but also the self defense. I enjoyed how he made it very easy to understand. Looking forward to taking advanc classes to better educate myself. Great tips on having an action plan for the whole family. Chris did a wonderful job and I will recommend his class to everyone I know.

Nothing! Your class was fun and very knowledgeable!

I am certified with the State of Min to teach ATV safety and am also a Trail Ambassador for the State. I also had taught Firearms Safety thru the Pine Island Jaycees for years. If you ever see a need for Help give me a call. Chris. I thought you explained situations to avoid very well. I was concerned on where I could legally carry and where i cannot you explained that very well. I thought you did an excellent Con Carry training class. I would recommend your class to everyone . Thank you Sir

Stacy 
Very informative. Never made you feel like you asked a stupid question

Ryan
I would recommend this class to anyone who wants to protect themselves and their families. Even if you don’t want to carry in public, the class is still extremely beneficial when it comes to knowing the law within your home. Chris covers anything and everything that you need to know. I am a fairly experienced shooter and I still took quite a bit of beneficial information away from the class. Regardless of whether you are an experienced shooter or are just looking to buy your first firearm for personal defense and recreational shooting, this class will literally teach you everything from the basics of firearm use, storage, and cleanliness, to which holsters and various accessories are best fit for you. Knowing more about the law doesn’t hurt either. I was pretty blown away by the depth of this class and have already recommended it to my family and friends. Keep doing what you do Chris, you’re obviously pretty great at it.

It was great! The class time was right around 5 hours, but definitely did not seem that long. Kept my interest the entire time. Lots of good information.

Clyde
Great information it really help me to grasp and understand the responsibility in carrying a weapon to protect my family and loved ones. If and when I’m face with a situation that requires that responsibility I know I am well informed. I will be more than happy to tell others about your class.

Brian
Great class that keeps things interesting and fun. Covers all the bases including some you often don’t think about. Happy to answer even the strangest of hypothetical questions from some interesting people.

Kristie
Am very happy I took the class! Was glad was able to have a friend sign up (even though it was last minute…instructor answered phone right away and was kind and helpful from beginning to end!). My friend is much more practiced than I am with handguns (have mostly shot rifles or shotguns), so was a good support. I enjoyed that the class was offered to only women, and had prizes and information catered to specifically helping females adjust to carrying firearms. Having many guns and holsters for students to view was awesome–also, having examples of mace, stun guns, and tasers was nice. I actually purchased a stun gun from Amazon last night based upon what instructor showed us. Having all the overview of legalities on both reasonable and deadly force was wonderful, and very helpful for understanding the laws in MN. I was nervous at the range because it had been a very long time since I’d shot any kind of handgun, and had never shot a handgun involving a magazine. Am definitely looking forward to practicing and improving greatly in this area! Instructor was good at making me feel safe and capable of handling the handgun, even though it was such a new experience for me.

Jason
Loved the class. Learned a lot of valuable information and will defiantly recommend this course and refer Chris to my family and friends!

Latoja
It is a very informational class.

John
Chris, you joked about not being a very good speaker but you really are, and that comes with knowledge of the topic. I really liked the scenario areas, the what would you do… anyone can read the law but to put into real life situations makes it more understandable.

Shelly
Chris, Everything that was covered from start to finish was extremely informative and helpful. You were very laid back and made the class feel at ease as I think sometimes people are intimidated by the whole gun issue in general. I might not have attended if it wasn’t for the all-women class you offered and encourage you to continue to offer these as I’ve already recommended you to many of my girl friends (and guy friends). You knew your material, were very professional, but yet were very approachable if people had questions or what not.

Suzanne
I really enjoyed the content of the class- and the videos were informative. It was difficult for me to watch the ones of people shooting themselves- I truly just do not like gore/violence. However, I see the importance of showing that even the most professional people- who have been handling guns for a long time, can let their guard down and make a dumb mistake. In the past I would have classified myself a as a female who wouldn’t have owned or carried a gun. This class gave me the knowledge to make an informed choice about when and why I would carry a gun. I now understand the weight and responsibility of this choice. I also have more of an understanding of situations that I would consider using a firearm. I also appreciated the self-defense and home-defense portions of the class. I was able to communicate a lot of this information to our family, so they are more aware of their surroundings, and our family is safer as a result. Overall, I would highly recommend Chris and his approach to anyone considering carrying a personal firearm.

Amy
I learned things that about personal protection, handling guns, laws and precarious situations that I never thought about prior to taking this class – but cannot stop thinking about since!

Brooklyn
This was a great class. The instructor was very knowledgeable & also had a great sense of humor, making it an even better experience. He is also very accommodating to the students’ needs, in my case I had to leave a little early to get to work on time so he let me shoot first. I’m sure I may have been eligible for a discount, but I felt that full price was well worth it.

Mike
Very informative, great class. Thank you!

Rod
I highly recommend this class and will be doing so to all my friends and family that are in the area. I have been shooting my whole life (60 Years) and am a Hunter Safety Instructor for over 15 years and the information in this class was very informative even to me. I thought this old dog knew all the tricks but was taught new ones in this class!

Barbara
I loved the humor – that helps keep interest. I was never bored in class as you kept the subject on task. You allowed sufficient time for each topic and were open to questions. I didn’t have any questions because you were thorough with your knowledge as you taught the subjects. The frequent breaks were a nice touch to allow us time to stand and get the blood flowing again. I was impressed with the class. I really dislike guns and was concerned about taking this class …. but you eased my fears and apprehension! My knowledge of guns and gun training is nil. I thought you did a terrific job for those of us that are truly at the baby stages of learning. I appreciate that you spoke in a manner we could all understand. At this time I really don’t know how you could improve the class … unless you allowed more heat in the room. It was chilly in there. When I come back in five years to update my certificate, maybe I will have some suggestions for you at that time. Right now, I’m pleased with the training I received.

Ken
I feel all people who are even thinking about some day buying a gun for personal protection should take this class! I feel Chris that you did a great job of getting the point across about safety. and I especially like the way you are able to talk TO people. instead of like some instructors, above people.

Chris was a great speaker , easy to stay awake in class by keeping us entertained

Evelyn
I was the only girl in his class that day and I enjoyed it! I thought that Chris was very knowledgeable and I liked that he used what he would do and what he and his family would do in situations. I also thought the videos were a good tool to use as well because it broke up the wording slides in between topics which made it more interesting for me.
What Can I Do To Improve The Class? This was my first time taking this class but I left feeling more knowledgeable about guns and gun safety and what I should and shouldn’t do in situations. For me, I thought the class was very informal and like I has stated above for feedback I don’t think there would be any improving because I thought it was thoroughly put together! Thanks!

I thought the class was awesome, found out a lot of information I had no idea about before. I felt more at ease with my fire arm after the class. I would recommend it very much

Anyone who can keep my attention for over four hours with only a few short breaks I rate quite highly. You kept my attention, were interesting, had a good delivery, and I walked out of there having learned something useful.

Thank you so much for this class. I really appreciated your approach to safety, avoiding risky situations, carrying, and the law versus real-world cases. Before your class, I secretly questioned whether or not permit holders were just gun nuts. I have since realized that’s not the case and I am looking forward to getting mine.

Great class overall. I’ve been a recreational shooter for many years and have been going in the direction of serious personal protection and shooting proficiency in the last couple of years. I especially appreciated the statistics, awareness/victim selection and fight or flight/body alarm response sections. I knew most of this info already but think it is very important to include and the content was presented well. I did not know the bit about peppers pray/mace and dogs.

I was really impressed with all of the information that was covered and happy to find that Chris also distributed the forms necessary to apply for the carry permit. It was clear that Chris was extremely knowledgeable about everything discussed and had very good references to back up everything he was saying.

Chris, I’ve been a Firearms instructor for the Dept I worked for, I’ve taken all kinds of Firearms Trainings thru Law Enforcement as well as civilian instructors. Your class was outstanding. I really enjoyed it and have told others about the training you do. I was very impressed at hold you handle handguns in class and present the different aspects of them to the class. That is very important. Thank you for letting me be a part of your class.

Very informative. A lot of information in a short time. Chris keeps the class upbeat and interesting. He very knowledgeable and willing to answer questions during the class. I was impressed by the time he took to help a couple of students on the range, who had never handled a firearm. I am sure his time showing them compassion and understanding helped ease any feelings of being uncomfortable. Definitely interested in any advanced training offered by Precision Plus. Great job Chris!!!!

You were a great instructor.

Great class. I would recommend it for every person even if not interested in owning or carrying a gun. Thank you. The class was great. The thing I would like to learn more about is the natural psychology and immediate instinct response of being attacked and how to overcome that. For example: You mentioned the adrenaline rush makes fingers numb and more diffucult to control. It will be grear to give more time and emphasis to training how to handle guns while under stress.

I feel you did a very good job teaching us about the laws and everything. Every question I had coming to the class you answered before I had the chance to ask. Your knowledge was impressive and you had great advice. So with all that said I wanna thank you for doing this and taking the time to.

The class was very informative. Nice mix of humor and facts. Almost wish it were a full day class because it seemed to have gone through some of the facts a little fast. I talked to my co-workers about the class today and some of the information that was covered. Just the safety part in regards to walking away from situations and the consequences would be a fantastic seminar for teens at high schools. I was very glad my whole family was there and it was more than worth the money. I would like to know if you give any other classes and when you will be in the area to teach them.

I cant really pin point anything that needs improvement. It was a good class and Im glad I took the time to take it. Thanks for the experience and knowledge.

I think everybody that is competent should take the class weather they decide to carry or not.

I am a novice who has not fired a gun in 35 years. My father and I used to spend a lot of time at the Chester Gun Club. Due to a recent surgery the strength in my right arm is not what it once was. Today I had extreme difficulty where strength was required, such as pushing back the slide and holding the gun steady for any length of time. Hopefully with continued practice this will greatly improve. With just the short time I spent with Chris he made me feel comfortable and confidant. He took the extra time to explain how the mechanics of the gun work, how to correctly hold the gun, how to line up the sites and how to aim and shoot correctly. He allowed me to try a few different types of guns so that I could get a feel for each one. I have great respect for this instructor and plan on taking my continued training seriously. I am excited to find a gun that will work for me and one that I can master. Takes a certain type of person to have that kind of patience

Kathy
Thank you Chris, I have had a firearms safety class on my “To Do” list for a long time. You did a wonderful job making the information relative and understandable. I left your class feeling comfortable that I will be a responsible gun owner.

Learned a great deal of the do’s and don’ts along with the proper equipment. Information on where to look for more information when needed. Above all the responsibility of owning and carrying.

Lou
Thank you for taking time with us. It is people like you offering a good service enhancing Constitutional Rights that I hope can get rich by your efforts!! What Can I Do To Improve The Class? Don’t be afraid to remind us over and over that the cartridges you are ejecting onto the floor are not live. I saw some people squirm a little as you were loading and unloading. Also, your gentle nature is obvious. You should feel free to raise your voice on occasion, to break up the monotone nature of the information being taught. God Bless You!!!

Mark
Very informative. Answered some questions that I thought I knew, but didn’t. Took time to explain things.

Patrick
Very nice job on covering all the material and having firearms available to use on the range.

Spencer
Chris Marquette was very helpful in explaining scenarios, and gun care. Covered many topics and answered many questions. I am glad i signed up for the class.

AnonymousIt was a great class, you were able to keep my attention…which isn’t easy to do (my mind wanders)

Linda
Excellent information. Held my attention. I was glad to see that during the range time, it was one- on-one as not everyone who takes a permit to carry class has experience with shooting.

Blaine
I think the class was very helpful for me, It showed me where the line in the sand is that I should not cross unless threatened with bodily harm. To always retreat when possible, To always look for options and to keep my level of awareness high.

Glen
We were very happy with the class today. We will absolutely recommend this instructor to all our friends. If you are the first one there, make a little noise, he can be a little jumpy.  What Can I Do To Improve The Class?We felt it is just fine the way it is. Time moved along very quickly. It did not feel like we were there for any length of time at all.

James
Great Job Chris you kept me interested the whole 4 hours!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kay
Chris was very well versed in his knowledge of what was to be taught in his class. There was ample time for Q & A. He professed at not being good at giving lectures but he did very well. Anyone and everyone that is considering the right to carry a hand gun should take his class.
Rick
The class was excellent. You did a great job. Thanks

Jason
His class was well planned with all basic knowledge needed Chris was an outstanding instructor keep up the great work and i will be back in five years for another class. Everything was just the way it should be don’t change a thing i was not able to access the part to rate the instructor but i give you a 10 awesome job

Mallory
Chris does an excellent job! It is truly amazing how he can have that much content and be able to cover the information in the time given.What Can I Do To Improve The Class? You do an excellent job, so i dont see that you would need to change anything.

Richard
The best part of class was learning about the different classes of awareness. It brought back military training. You should focus on that a little more. Thank you Chris.

Bryant
I wouldn’t change a thing. You were very informative and did an awesome job covering everything I would have had questions about

Jim
I was very impressed with Chris’ knowledge of firearms and safety. I have already recommended this others. I was expecting a long and boring class and received a class that was interesting all the way through.

Gary
Chris thought you did good job. Only thing I would say is tell people the class runs longer. If we get done earlier that would be a bonus. Don’t want people thinking they will be done at 2 or so then not get out till 3.30. Lot to cover. very easy to run long. very complicated laws. You made it fun. Thanks.

Rich
I thought the class was long and going over things for the beginners.

Richard
This was the 3rd class I have taken in order to renewal my permit to carry. The previous two classes had exam’s at the end. Perhaps that is not required any more? Not saying we need to be tested. I am fine with how well your class went throughout the day. Well organized.
What Can I Do To Improve The Class? Well organized class. I liked slide show presentation. Previous two classes just went through books. Good job, keep it up.

Chad
Chris made a novice gun person like myself feel comfortable not knowing a lot about guns. Also I think he can relate to all persons taking his class from beginners to advanced owners. I like the relaxed feel the class had along with the flow of it. Having said that, I’d say keep it going!

Dan
I was very satisfied with the class. It was informative and presented well. I will be recommending the class to friends.

Anonymous
Subject matters were covered in detail. Handgun safety (very important) was stressed. Left the class feeling informed in use of hand guns, laws and responsibilities. I found tips given to conceal carry as applied to the real world were valuable. After the class I really felt the saying “Be careful what you ask for” concerning a conceal carry permit certainly applied. Chris was very helpful in explaining what to expect in carrying, using and general public attitude towards those that carry handguns. I have re-read my class notes and class material received. I’m presently waiting for results of my conceal carry application submission. To Chris and The Precision Firearm’s group thanks for a job well done!

Anonymous
The class was very very informative, even though it took all morning the time flew by and Chris kept our attention and was very interactive with the class. I really appreciated on the range where he took the extra time to notice the way I used to hold my gun and showed me a much easier and more comfortable grip.

Dave
Very informational for the firearm owner. I liked the information on how to protect yourself and/or family and how to place yourself in situations that would not necessarily mean for you to fire your weapon.

Colleen
Chris did an excellent job, very thorough and knowledgeable. Thanks so much

Shannon
Good pace.. a lot of information regarding personal safety as well as gun handling and your rights under Mn and federal law. I feel confident now in the knowledge that I can protect myself and my family if I would need to in any situation.

Kristin
The class was run very well. Overall, I thought it was interesting and I learned a lot of important information.

David
I learned a lot of valuable info. Thanks

Brad
Awesome class, great instructor!

Dave
Was an interesting class. Like the personal examples you were able to share. Also liked that you were able to put some of the minnesota laws into English.

Very good class. Instructor was very good speaker, knew the material well and explained it in a very understandable way. I appreciated having the plethora of holsters and guns to look at, otherwise most peoples first experience is at the gun store.

Timothy
I enjoyed your class and I will let people know who you are.
What Can I Do To Improve The Class? I can not think of anything, very satisfied!

Larry
Good as it was I can’t improve it I learned and had fun ill always take care in the principals I learned

Aaron
It was fun and I learned a few things I didn’t know. Glad that you had a sense of humor throughout the class.

Angel
Really enjoyed the class, Chris was very personable.
What Can I Do To Improve The Class? I have no suggestions to improve the class as I thought it was great.

Brian
Great class!! Even as a FFL holder I learned alot! I highly recomend this class for people of all skill ranges.

Kystle
Great class! I loved how you added some humor and stories about people in certain situations. I also LOVED that you were able to keep the class moving and not get off on a ton of tangents. Very knowledgeable in this area.

Randall
Thanks Chris for the informative class.

Jeremiah

Class was great. Better than I expected

John 
I thought the class went very well. A review of techniques for shooting has already made a difference in my shooting.

Anonymous 
The class was great. I was a first time shooter, and have never even handled a gun before. I felt very safe shooting, and I feel very comfortable in my knowledge not only about guns and gun laws, but also about different types of ammunition, holsters, etc.

Duane
Great class lead by a very knowledgeable instructor. Can not wait to take other classes to broaden my skills with firearms.

You are an excellent speaker.

Very informative and thorough. I would recommend this class to anyone

Kirby
I have already recommended some friends and family to take the class. I liked the class and it really broadened my mind. Overall it went by quick and I really enjoyed it.

Karissa
Chris, Did a wonderful job. He gave a lot of information and was detailed as well which made learning it and retaining it easier. I was so nervous to do my shooting at the range I waited to go last and the way Chris took his time and made me feel comfortable was amazing. He taught me things I was unaware of and spent extra time making sure I understood it as well. I have already recommend him to many. Thanks Chris for a wonderful experience.

John
The class was very informative of the laws governing legality of a Permit to Carry. The overall class was deeply thought out and clearly planned to help an average guy like me understand those laws involving A Permit to Carry. Thanks for the opportunity

Judith
There was just enough humor to keep it from being boring but not so much that it got off track. It made me think about things that I would not have given much thought to. I would definitely recommend this class.

All aspects of getting a permit were covered. Legal ramifications of carrying w were well covered

John
Instructor made very dry classroom material fun and kept everyone’s attention by giving real life scenarios. Covered mostly extremely pertinent material, excellent job Chris, I’ll be back in five years for my renewal and thanks for the 20 bucks at the range, that was outstanding

Craig
Great class with good info. I think you need to continue just like you are now.you present all info on what we need to know.much better than the class I took from someone else 5 yrs ago.

Ben
Very educational and complete

Christopher
Great class. I really like how you offer use of your own guns and ammo to students at no charge. Even though I brought my own a lot of students did not. I appreciate the military discount and that was why I chose your class. I enjoyed class and will see you again when I need to renew. What Can I Do To Improve The Class?Nothing I think it was spot on. Taught to a good level and explained everything well.

Chris
Great class. Learned alot

Lance
Super job!!

Greg
Hey Chris I think you did a great job of presenting the C & C Material You were patient & injected some humor in to the class

Terry
I was impressed with the amount of time spent covering what a permit holder’s responsibility is if they decide to carry. Chris is a knowledgeable instructor and did a good job keeping the class interesting.

Put cushions on the seats! Seriously, u did good.

Todd
We have already recommended your class to others. Do you have any more classes scheduled in the Brainerd Lakes area? People have asked us for class schedule information.

Wayne
Good paced instruction. Practical information presented in an easy to learn format. I should have done this years ago. Highly recommend Chris.

Roger
Very interesting and informative. I highly recommend this class. You did a great job and you shouldn’t tinker with what you are doing too much. Thank you for improving my knowledge of guns and the laws.

This was a great class into the details on the permit to carry and how to handle situations where you may need to use a firearm. I’m glad the class was taught in a way that emphasizes the use of the firearm as a last resort.

Emily 
I enjoyed this class and learned a lot from Chris. He was very knowledgeable and had a lot of personal stories to share with the class. Highly recommended!

I felt the class was good. I felt you were quite knowledgeable and I learned a lot. I look forward to continually learning more about firearms and conceal and carry. I felt that you did a great job of teaching the class and informing us.

Anonymous
This is a very good class to take even if you are not looking to conceal and carry. Very good information here. I learned things that I did not know when shooting the gun, ie- how not to hold your gun when shooting. Chris was very knowledgeable and answered any questions we had.

Dave
Two thumbs up for this class! Chris is on his game and I would highly recommend this class to everyone.

Michael
The class was great. Very knowledgeable instructor. I love the fact that all of the information needed to get the Florida permit was included.

Caleb
Did great even though it was an all new power point to teach to the class. You did a great job. Thanks for everything.

Ronda
This was a great online class and it was great at the range. Thank you so much for your time!!

Chuck C.
Chris, Thank You for all the knowledge you bestowed on us. I learned a lot about how to carry a gun and how “Not” to carry a gun. Again, Thank You for the class and if I am still in Minnesota in 5 years, I’ll see you again. One suggestion that you might consider that would present you to the class as more of an authority figure would be to wear something that represents your expertise as an arms authority. This is just my feeling, I know that people who carry wear just about anything, but I guess I expected to see someone with some sort of sporting clothing. Mind you, I would have never guessed that you carry, which is what you want, but then I am new to this and being x-military, I guess I am use to authority coming in a uniform. Thanks again

John P.
REFINE THE PROGRAM. MAKE IT SHORTER. TAKE OUT SOME OF THE INFORMATION THAT ISN’T REAL NECESSARY.

Daniel
I thought the class was very good and very informative.
What Can I Do To Improve The Class? You should go over the other classes you might offer. My girl friend wants to take a beginners course and it would be nice to know what other classes you offer. Other then that, it was a very good class!!

Very Good Class and was very interesting

I would have liked to have had copies of some of the information on the screen it was very interesting. Or maybe knowledge of links that I could look those up.great class I enjoyed it.

Anonymous
Good materials good presentation. Personally I disagree with the bias shown against BLACKHAWK! Serpa Holsters as being any
more dangerous than another holster type/brand. Three years ago I spent 4 days out in Norfolk, VA as a guest of BLACKHAWK! and spent many hours on the shooting range using those holsters taught by world renowned shooter Todd Jarrett. What some might suggest is a design flaw I say is more of an issue of lack of proper training. Any holster can be used improperly and the shooter develop bad/dangerous habits. I was not going to debate this issue in class, but in the future I would like to hear you state it differently like saying some shooters have experienced problems with this holster. Yet, with proper training and experience those problems can be overcome easily by the user. Rather than a flat out disapproval of product

Andrew M.
Good class… Thanks for the. $20.

William H.
I really enjoyed the class.

The class was very lengthly. I think stick to the basics on gun safety and strictly on guns rather than going over pepper spray, etc. Good class!

Tim
Awesome class – Chris covered the topics thoroughly and injected enough humor to keep us all on track. You know the instructor is good in my opinion when you can go the entire day and hear no “chatter” during the presentations. Well worth the time and investment in my opinion. Hopefully Chris’ new baby came

David
I attended yesterday and I give you, Chris, nothing but cudoo’s for a job well done. I would recommend your class to anybody and, in fact, have already done so with several people. You did a great job! Keep up the good work.

Jennifer
Great class. Thank you!

DC
Chris did a great job with the class. I was re-certifying my permit and he covered everything and more than my first instructor. Definitely money well spent

Bruce
This other person that I went to class with has been to this type of class before and said it was the best one that he’s been to.

Justin
Loved the class you did great, will definitely recommend you. Made it fun

Julia
I really enjoyed the class… I was never bored. Maybe a little tired because of the time springing forward. I learned a lot of stuff. The scenarios and examples were really helpful. Granted when your in the situation you don’t have much time to think how to react in threatening and non threatening circumstances. It’s nice to have some insight. Hopefully I’ll never have to use it, but I’m a lot more confident now than I was before the class. Very glad we signed up with you and we didn’t get stuck with a boring, no humor, monotone speaker.

Nicole
I learned a lot and learned I have much more to learn! Thank you, I’m glad I was there and I have already recommended it to others!

Michael
This class was very well done. Instructor Chris Marquette was very knowledgeable and took questions during the presentation. All material covered was quite valuable, even if review for some, and was easy to understand everyday common sense. Some hands-on of a variety of handguns and holsters was also covered and was nice to have available to see. I had my 15 yr old son with me during this class to observe and he also was quite happy to be there with me. Thank you for providing an excellent class!

Anonymous
Took this class to renew. My first class I took 5 years ago was much longer, and we covered far less. We basically read through a handbook, and it was boring. The power point was very much appreciated, as were the hypothetical situations and discussions. Very informative. Would recommend this class and you as an instructor again.

Michael
Thank you great class

Mariah
He was extremely knowledgeable! Kept my full attention the while time! Great job!

Kyle
very good

Covered a good amount on laws. Knows a lot about subject.

Matthew
I liked being instructed on proper handling/carrying of a handgun. Carrying a handgun wouldn’t make sense if safety of others and myself were in jeopardy. I liked being informed on the risks of choosing to use a firearm as deadly force. I liked stories and videos of instructors having accidental discharge, people trained well can still make careless mistakes. I feel we’ll informed.

Steve
Chris, you did an excellent job of presentation on gun safety, knowledge of the guns and a number of things to be aware of. Not only how and especially when to use a weapon but more importantly how to stay out of bad situations. To be aware of the surroundings is an important feature in everyday life that is taken for granted on most days. I did mention to you that you did put a little fear in me about using my weapon, but I really understand now that when all else fails in an assault and the deadly force has to be used what steps to take next. It was a very informative class way beyond the use of a gun. Well done and thank you!!

Sean
It wasn’t boring, it was fast paced. It kept your attention. You were very knowledgeable. When you are showing the laser and aiming, aim it towards the wall with the projector so everyone would be able to see it

Anthony
I enjoyed the class and actually received information that I have been searching for like the past 2 months. im a martial arts instructor and teach a variety of self defense courses and was happy to see that the “hands and feet” so to speak and open carry or well permit to carry have a lot of similarities. self defense is self defense, from knives to our well trained bodies to firearms I promote all of thee above. im very happy to add a firearm to my defense as I encourage other black belts or any martial artist to do the same.
What Can I Do To Improve The Class? you did well, as I teach myself I learn so much from others and keep looking for knowledge, just keep doing what your doing you kept it real and added the humor when needed. nothing over board just some real serious facts. I enjoyed the class very much as I could see other students take in some serious points as I did. so in retrospect just pick up as all good instructors do and just add to your next class. thank you.

Wayne
The class was excellent. The first section of being aware and taking steps to avoid dangerous situations would be helpful to anyone, not just gun carrying individuals. You kept it interesting, had adequate breaks, and added to the presentation slides instead of reading them to us. Good job!

Kelly
Great job, I am already more aware of my surroundings. Thanks for letting me look at several guns. I will start going to a shooting range to improve my skills and knowledge.

Anonymous
I thought the class was very knowledgeable learned a lot

Megan
I loved the scenarios that made me think about several different options and variables to a dangerous encounter. I feel like there could have been a little more instruction on the parts of a gun, how to load it and disarm it. It may have been a better use of time to only have a couple breaks, although it is a lotfof information. I felt very safe in the class. I definitely feel like I learned a lot of useful information. Excellent class, I’ve already referred several people!

Tommy
Great experience. Instructor deserves a tall cold one!

Dale
Chris was very well versed on all the areas covered in the class from safety in the home to laws & personal rights; Good job Chris I enjoyed the day, time well spent!

Chris
Funny and entertaining with a good grasp on knowledge. Able to answer questions adequately and efficiently

Zack
You were very informational and very knowledgeable on most of the topics that you talked about. You gave good advise and I appreciate that. Saying the same things over and over was a lil repetitive but in the same sense it is a good way to make people understand the importance of the training and how to do so legally and most of all SAFLY. I Was very impressed by the way the class ended up. GREAT JOB two thumbs up !!

Robert
I enjoyed the class. I found it to be educational on laws and scenarios that one may encounter. I feel like I learned quite a bit of information.

Phyllis
Felt very comfortable with the class. Thank you I am so glad that you covered the law on what constitutes a good shoot vs one that is not good. Sure opened my eyes. Hopefully the only time we will need to shoot our weapons is when we are on the range but it is a good feeling knowing that we have had proper training to get us through that. Thanks again

This was a very thorough class and a lot of information was covered and I learned a lot of new things. Chris keeps the class informative and fun at the same time while taking a serious subject and teaching you

Dan
Thanks Chris I thought your class was great and have already recommended it to 2 people the next time you are in Winona. Very informative.

Joseph
You kept the class fun yet informative. I like how it did not feel like you were reading it right out of a book. The visual aids were very good and showed a lot of the differences that are out there. I feel I could send someone with little to almost no experience to the class and they will come out knowing a lot more.

Dave
Very good class, too bad it is not required as a class before graduating from school. Nice truck by the way too.

Great class. Chris knows his stuff. Took the time to answer everyone’s questions and make sure we understood the answers. Provided multiple self defense scenarios and different outcomes based on our decisions. The information provided was very helpful, and he did a great job keeping everyone engaged so the class didn’t drag on. I would absolutely recommend this class to others.

Jess
Great class: ) We had a lot of fun but also learned a lot!!!! Chris you are a great instructor, super funny, nice and helpful! Not once did I feel dumb for not knowing anything about a gun:) Made our first time shooting feel so natural, I was super nervous because the thought of guns does scare me but with the knowledge I gained today I feel a lot more confident Thanks so much! Can’t wait to shoot at the range in Austin! My dad will be proud haha.

Loree
Great class have recommended it to several friends

Awesome class… very informative and fun

Dave
Excellent class. Would be very valuable even for people who do not intend to carry a weapon. The class was about far more than just carrying a weapon — it was about personal safety and protecting my family. Especially appreciated the condition colors. I was introduced to that concept in regards to flying in 1986. The flight instructor referenced that he had learned about it from carrying a firearm. It was an excellent reminder. Thank you. Appreciated the way you incorporated current news when we discussed situational awareness.

John
Chris, Thank you for your knowledge and personal opinions on matters regarding carrying openly and concealed. I felt I left with more valuable info. Thanks again

Darrin
Awesome class. Great instructor. Had fun. Learned a lot and all of our questions were answered. Thanks!

Rod
The first class I took; the instructor gave us more of the “don’t pull your gun unless you are going to shoot and shoot to kill” mentality. I think there were probably others in the class that had the same experience, by some of the comments made. My carry views are much more inline with your class.

Carole
We enjoyed your touches of humor and the real life situations you brought up. The breaks were helpful too. We did not feel you rushed through the information and explained things very well.
What Can I Do To Improve The Class? I guess we all have room for improvement but I have nothing to add to improve your class in my opinion. Thank you for what you do to help us be safe.

Chris, being straight forward and honest you did a great job teaching this course! From basic gun safety to understanding the laws in general, it was covered perfectly and didn’t lose us at any point. I think your passion for guns and gun safety shows in your teachings in a way that talks with your classes not at them or down to them, and that is a great thing. I really learned a lot and give the class high regards and will further recommend it to others! I’m really satisfied with the class and happy I attended! Thanks!

Rick
I enjoyed the class taught by Chris. He was quite knowledgable but yet not arrogant. I have taught Safety classes for over 25 years and would recommend Chris’s teaching to all. He was thoughtful, energetic, and even humorous at times. Great class and felt like none of my time was wasted.

Marc
Hello Chris – great class I really enjoyed it. I appreciated your straightforward and relaxed attitude, I think it made for a great environment. Also, thanks for the military discount as well!

Ron
Much better than the first class I took. This was a renewal for me but would highly recommend Chris to others

Robert
I learned some new things that I had no idea about and every person should no in Minnesota and I’m going to talk my wife into going. Chris you did a good job. Thank you.

Brittany
I thought the class was very informational. I felt like I left the class more knowledgable not just as a future firearm carrier, but citizen as well. I have heard of other classes where students are either pressured to use their weapons or the opposite and terrified to use it- not the case here! I felt Chris did a great job of making you feel comfortable in what situations to use your weapon while instilling the magnitude of not only firing your weapon but carrying it.

Elizabeth
I really enjoyed your class. Your personal touches definitly kept it interesting. Thanks for all the info it will definitly be use full.

Darryl
The topics were thoroughly covered.

Ryan
Chris, you prefaced your class with a disclaimer that you aren’t a good speaker and that we may need to “help you through it.” Nothing could’ve been further from the truth. You blew all of our minds with your wealth of knowledge and competent approach to the class. My only regret is that I didn’t bring my wife with. I will send her to a future class of yours. We received so many practical ideas for not only shooting, but other areas of self defense and attack mitigation. All of society would be better off if taught the principles we learned from you last Saturday. You held everybody’s attention the entire morning and afternoon. You are highly praised and please write if you need any further recommendations. I will only recommend you for further classes!

Logan
I’m very glad I came to the class.. I thought it was goong to be boring. But you made it interesting. Definatley worth my saturday

William
I liked the class, would be awesome if you taught a class for kids. I don’t know if there is one or not. You were saying you teach your kids so they know dangers and what not.

Lanier
The information provided was very thorough and explained well. I have already begun recommending the class to others.

Bob
Chris is not only knowledgeable and a good speaker but he also has a good sense of humor. He is a very laid back guy and made the time pass rapidly. I learned a lot and went home with much to think about. It’s not Chris’ fault that we hit the range in a snow storm. It wasn’t that bad but I was second to shoot with Chris’ buddy so I got out pretty fast. I highly recommend Chris. 

Amanda
Chris, I liked that you covered the laws, after all that is what we need to know if we do need to protect ourselves with a firearm. You did a great job. Thank you. See you in about 5 years.

Montana
It was a great class, very informative. I would definitely recommend the class to others. Chris Marguette provided a very comfortable learning environment. I now feel that I am knowledgeable and confident enough to carry.

David
I would like to see a little more in regards to gun handling. I know this could be a challenge with the number of people. More hands on situation handling. Maybe that’s a more advanced class in the future

Mark
Very good variety of helpful information. Instructor was well prepared and experienced. Thank you

Dann
Great class, learned a lot about what to look for in different situations to avoid having to use my firearm.

Chris 
Great class for someone with little gun knowledge. For those with more experience some parts get a little boring but I understand this is a one size fits all class

Brandon
Class answered all the questions that I had about personal defense

Scott
Chris made it very easy to understand the requirements and responsibilities of owning and carrying a handgun. His easy going manner, video aids and bits of humor kept the class interesting. It was nice to have a demonstration of handguns and accessories as well. Keep it up Chris! Thanxxxxx…

Alex
The class was really good and I came out of it with a lot more knowledge on firearms and the law about carrying a firearm.

Stephanie
Teaching style was very easy to understand. The transition into new topics and details was easy to retain and understand. The demonstrations and hands on opportunity was very important and helpful. I appreciate that contact information and encouragement to call or email with any qustions was offered. And you providing everything needed at the range which also gave the opportunity to find a comfort level was greatly appreciated. I have a hard time staying focused in classes and I can honestly say that I didn’t fell this class was 5 hours. It was just right. Thanks Chris!

Kirsten
I appreciated the honest and blunt approach taken to the laws. It didn’t turn into a game of “what ifs” and I left feeling secure in the knowledge I gained regarding the permit to carry.

Daniel
Great teacher!

Nick
Very good class Chris. I appreciate you coming so far to do the class. You definitely know you stuff and explained everything very well. Good shooting info. Reason I said no on the better shooting is because I have done a lot of training else where. But very good class thanks again!

Laurie
I was looking forward to taking this class and I was not disappointed at all! The time went very fast

Josh
Very informative come time for renewal only instructor id go to. safe, fun , very blunt good teacher

Peggy
Going in there I didn’t realize how much I would learn, I was very impressed. Chris did a great job, You kept the session very interesting very good at keeping a persons attention. I learned so much. You covered every aspect in all categories. I went in there with questions I had, but didn’t even need to ask , you had them all covered and more I didn’t even think about. Your a great speaker Chris also was clear and explained every thing perfect As I said I was very impressed with the class. I honestly can’t find anything that could be improved. Everything I needed to know and more was covered and explained excellent- Great Job

I took the online class and enjoyed it very well. The information was well presented and easily understood. I would recommend this class to anybody looking to begin Conceal Carry or to anybody who wants to know their rights and limitations as a gun owner.

Great class! I learned more than I even anticipated that I would. I left the classroom feeling like I had the basic knowledge on not only gun safety and appropriate use to defend myself and my family, but also many other good tips on averting an incident or diffusing a potential situation! I cannot thank you enuf for all the knowledge I gained in your class. The videos and slides were effective and your real world scenarios and even how you apply in your own household were invaluable! Thank you for helping prepare me to defend myself and my family Chris!

He was very knowledgeable, had a clear answer for all my questions, and even had a lot of good info that didn’t directly pertain to firearms but clearly was relevant to many scenarios dealing with firearms..and he kept your attention for the entirety of the class which is important… would definitely recommend the class to anyone else interested in pursuing a permit to carry.

Chris was a great instructor and in a situation where you may feel Intimidated and in over your head, he made the class comfortable and very easy to understand.

I took the online class and found it fit in great with my schedule. The material was understandable and the videos in the presentation made it more enjoyable. The instructor is very flexible for range time and the location of the range is even easier to get to. Any questions I had were answered during range time. The instructor Chris was knowledgeable and friendly which made the whole process fun. I would recommend the online session to those who have some firearms knowledge, a busy schedule, and the want of a permit to carry. Well done Chris and thank you.

Chris, I think you did very well as a presentor. I liked the fact that you did not read the slides word for word and told us more information. I thought your calm demeanor in class and at the range was very reassuring to those that might have not ever shot a gun. Awesome job. Thank you for the donuts and water.

I thought that class was excellent. So much was covered and more would have been if we hadn’t run over into the next scheduling for the room we were in. The one thing I might have enjoyed hearing was about the difference or comparison of bullet calibers. Rather incidental and perhaps not necessary. I did enjoy hearing about the difference in stopping power of the different calibers. Thanks for taking the time.

I will look you up in 5 years to do this all over again. I hope you’re still around this area & giving the class. I’ve had to sit through many military firearms training classes..I found your’s to be straightforward, informative, and down-to-earth about what we needed to know. Thank you!!

Am proud to say that I am joining many friends and fellow Minnesotans in having a permit to carry. I intend to take this privilege very seriously.

The class was the right length and size. It was a comfortable learning environment. Chris was approachable and very knowledgeable on the subject matter. I got lots of great information on gun safety, laws, and preparation. Thanks for a great class!

Very good at making the points where they needed to be but at the same time you still cover the others
