Best Firearms Academy Flint Near Me

Mary: I took the CPL class with Chuck. This class was amazing. Very eye opening. I certified years ago through a different company and instructor. Wow.. What a difference. Chuck's years of experience, passion for gun safety, teaching others, knowledge of the topic and training showed immediately from the minute you walked into his facility. The information in the packet he provides and the class he teaches sends you out prepared and informed. Chuck teaches in a way that is very personable, down to earth and hands on. The care and time he takes with each individual is invaluable. Chuck allows you to handle handguns during the class to better familiarize you with the ammo, the inner workings and the safe handling of the weapon. After everything i learned, I immediately recommended my adult children re-certify with Chuck. I will never take a class through any other company. I'm telling you, you will never leave a class of Chuck's disappointed or uneducated.

Kelsey Callaghan: Highly recommend this CPL class, very thorough and informative.

Mike Jarvis: Took my CPL and and secondary pistol course at Gabriel. Chuck is great instructor!! Class was very informative. Chuck made sure to answer all your questions. Safety was the number one priority on the range. Definitely will be taking more classes at Gabriel.

Quazan Martin: The classes and the training is OUTSTANDING!!! Top noch Instructor and customer service. The facility is immaculate and well organized. By far the BEST place to come to.

Gabriel Juarez: Renewing my Conceal Carry permit for my job. Gabriel Protection & Training classes are awesome. You learn a lot about guns and the new gun laws, and if some of them have changed. If you own a gun, I really recommend that you take some classes and be a responsible gun owner. Don't wait until it's too late and you end up in a situation that could land you in prison because a law changed or a new law started. So please 🙏🏽 let's all be responsible and everyone can carry a gun. Don't let the bad guys win.

We look forward to further developing our skills together.

He was very knowledgeable and easy going so the anxiety didn't last long after arriving. We went over all the course material until he was sure I understood everything. He answered all my questions without making me feel silly for asking them. When it came time to shoot, he made sure I felt comfortable with the handgun and adjusted my grip and stance to where I need to be. With his instruction, all my shots hit the target. I have already given his info to all my friends who have mentioned taking the class. I highly recommend his class for anyone thinking about taking it.
