I fully understand, dws1117. I've taken many a class at COM and i didn't know they offered these classes either until I just happened to be looking through the continuing education catalog one day. I always knew the range was there but at one time it was only for law enforcement training. I guess after the CHL came about the college realized that they might be able to get more use of the range and maybe make some money. Anyway the instructors are top notch, retired police and military. Well worth the money considering the costs of other places that are far away. I'm sure the other places are well worth their money but just a little out of my price range. Anyway take care.

It is College of the Mainland. They offer Basic handgun for newer shooters, Intermediate and Advanced Defensive Handgun for those with a CHL. The Classes are offered once each per semester, spring and fall. The prices are reasonable, ammunition, targets and indoor range are included in the tuition. They also hold monthly classes for new CHLs and re-qualification. I've taken the intermediate class several times, but the advanced rarely has enough people sign up so it doesn't make. The web address is http://www.com.edu Just click on the continuing education schedule and look for the handgun classes. The shooting range is on site at the college and the classroom is at the range. I know it is unusual to see a college offer these kinds of classes considering the liberal nature of most colleges and universities... But who's complaining!?

Hello all, I am 38, male, married, three dogs, no kids. We've had our CHLs since 1997(the wife and I, not the dogs). Member TSRA, NRA, PSC Shooting Club, and just recently started shooting IDPA. One match to be exact, but can't wait for the next one. Carry equipment: Sig Sauer p239 .40 usually in Don Hume OWB with one spare mag and a streamlight TL-2 flashlight. I also try to attend at least one firearms training class per year. A local community college offers intermediate and advanced defensive handgun training to folks with a CHL.
