Student TestimonialsI've taken three courses at Insights so far, Basic Handgun, General Defensive Handgun and General Defensive Rifle. All three courses were taught with great professionalism and it was apparent that the safety of the students and the staff is of the utmost importance. I came to Insights with a small amount of informal training with my firearms and am amazed at how far my skills and confidence have grown in a relatively short period of time thanks to the fantasic instruction and coaching I've recieved. As the lone female student in two of my courses I appreciate that I'm treated the same as my male counterparts and I encourage other female shooters to avail themselves of this valuable resource for training. I'll be working my way through the course offerings every chance I get. Keep up the good work and I look forward to my next class! ~ Maureen Pfaff, Port Angeles, WA |

Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat kind of gun should I bring?We suggest bringing a handgun that is full size (similar to Glock 17) or compact size (similar to Glock 19). Can I bring a small gun, such as S&W Shield, Ruger LCP or similar? We do not recommend small guns for this class. Smaller, sub-compact guns are often not as reliable and are more difficult to manipulate. Also the magazines hold less ammunition. So your training time will be more frustrating and less productive. What holster should I bring? Belt holsters only -- no drop-leg rigs, shoulder holsters, etc. And your holster should be made for your exact model of gun. We recommend the Kramer IWB#3 horsehide holster (with screws not snaps on the belt loops) or the Kramer Belt Scabbard horsehide holster. Also acceptable are Kydex belt holsters such as the Tenicor Arx or Certum, or Blade-Tech. No Blackhawk Serpa holsters allowed. Holsters must be rigid and stay open when the gun is not in them -- no collapsible holsters. No retention devices are required or recommended. Also, you must wear pants that have belt loops. What belt and mag pouch should I bring? Bring a gun belt such as the Kramer horsehide belt -- 1.25" or 1.5" works well. Kramer horsehide mag pouches are also recommended. Kydex mag pouches are acceptable. No collapsible mag pouches -- they should be rigid like the holsters and stay open when the mag is not in them. |
