New to HCP...best places to take course?


Guest TN_3

Recommended Posts

I have recently (3 months ago) purchased my first handgun. I have been taking it to the range and practicing frequently and I am ready to take my HCP class. I live in Franklin, and have been using the range at On Target in Murfreesboro, and that is where I was planning to take the class, but I have heard good things about HCP courses at other ranges. Does anyone have recommendations for places to go? I would like a place that has a very complete course, as opposed to one that is more "in and out'. Right now I am looking at SafetySouth, as they have a two day course (and it's cheaper than many places one day HCP!).

School Name: Small Arms Training School (S.A.T.S)

Location: Franklin, Tn (Williamson Co. Sheriff's Department)

Primary Instructor: Jim Mauth

HCP Class Cost: $75.00

Website: Unknown

Phone number: 615-794-3333

Your Personal Experience: I highly recommend these folks. This was an eight hour (1 Day) course, split into two groups. While one group was watching the dreaded video, the other group was outside on the range. Somewhere around luch time (IIRC), the 2 groups would swap.

There were roughly 5 or 6 total instructors, and every one of them did their best to make the day as enjoyable as possible. There was no shortage of humor all day long. They made the 8 hour day seem like a breeze.

Again, I highly recommend these folks.
