My $.02 on Armed2Defend. I was skeptical mainly because it is so much cheaper than some. Arrived a little early and there was already a guy waiting to help park. Went inside and there are two sign-in areas: prepaid and not. Got some coffee, started on time. Time flew through lunch. Bring your own or go in on a pizza buffet. Attorney comes in for his 2 hour talk. VERY informative and worth while. You'll learn a lot even if you think you already know it all. Some more class time, then off to the range for 2 hours. Not a bad drive at all. Small range with a pisser and food / coffee for sale. Back to class for the remaining time. Some videos, some more power points, an open book test... done. There is a definite mix of ages, races, knowledge, abilities, that's for sure. Overall, I would recommend it to anyone.
