Front Sight Training

[tnroadrunner]

Has anyone here been to Front Sight for training?

[Guest c.a.s.]

IF you go to their website, you can read some mail sent to them, though I've never really trusted any mail about anything iff it's posted on their website.

Which course are you planning on taking? I might have a gift for you.

[tnroadrunner]

I've been to their web site. I've been thinking about the 4 day pistol course.

[Guest 2HOW]

After the death there, alot of bad press and other stories surfaced about the unsafe conditions and sloppy instructors. I personally would choose another place. I would catch one of the Suarez classes in Chattanooga or maybe Tom perroni tactical .

[tnroadrunner]

2HOW I haven't heard about the death there. Thanks for the info.

[BigPoppa]

Just to clarify..........

it wasn't a gun training death, it was on one of those zip line rope deals.

Still..........a death.

I received and watched one of their DVDs. It is to gun training academies as loan sharks are to the lending industry.

Having never heard of the place until I read this thread, I would say Reefs analogy would put the brakes on any thoughts to train with this group. Nice use of the English language Reef. Warms my heart to see someone who can think AND type what they are thinking cogently.

cognitively?

It appears that "gunguys" website is an anti-gun website.

[Guest Mugster]

Hahaha. I though this thread was about looking at the front sight of a pistol.

Good catch Creeky. I Google searched "Front Sight" and discovered the two links and I did not realize that the a website called the Gun Guys was anti-gun.

Opps.

Mugster, I thought the same thing when I saw the title.

Aren't there any training facilities a little closer than Nevada?

[BigPoppa]

Aren't there any training facilities a little closer than Nevada?

Yeah, a bunch. What are you looking for ?

[Guest Todd@CIS]

Aren't there any training facilities a little closer than Nevada?

Yes.

And some even sponsor this board.

[tnroadrunner]

Since I started this thread and have received a lot of info about Front Sight, we can now close this thread. Hopefully Tungsen can put a lock on this. Thanks to all who responsed.

I heard Tactical Response is a nearby training facility.

Haha.. get your hands on one of their DVDs.. watching it just gives gives you the impression of a shady operation. I can't put my finger on it, it's just a feeling. Having never been there myself though, I can't say that what I say about them is true.

Some of us not only sponsor the board but are located right here in East TN:D

I watched the DVD and got the exact same feeling. Also have never been there. But, I have a shooting buddy who has been a few times and loves it.

I was joking... I just thought it was strange that someone on TGO would be asking about an out of state facility. I guess my dry sense of humor even shows through in my posts!
