Hi, Brian - thanks so much for the offer, I would have loved to take your class as we lived in Wylie for 16 years before moving to Murphy in '04, but I took my class already (yesterday the 21st). I'm sure I would have enjoyed learning the ropes from a "local guy"!

All the same, I can fully endorse Russ and Debbie Murphys' CHL class (and I hope I'm not breaking any forum rules by doing so!)

Thanks for the input. They sure have a comprehensive selection of tactical/defensive classes there.
A coworker suggested another guy who does the class for $75, all included (except for prints, of course), and have signed up for Jan. 21.

Now, off to the range to dial in!

I live in Murphy (just east of Plano/Richardson, north of Garland) - what are some recommendations for classes up in this area? I have been leaning toward the Texas Concealed Carry Institute in McKinney, as it is run by former and current LEO, has anyone had their CC classes?

Also, what recommendations for carry style/holsters for a person of smaller frame (5'8", 160lb) - I currently have a Taurus 809 w/4" barrel. I work in telecom installation, so no dress clothes (I dress like a college kid more than someone of 55 - but I like that!).

Thanks for your help!
