Mossy Creek Customs/Jeff Mimms Training - Anyone have any experience with them?

[stahlmangc]

I recently found HCP/NRA Basic pistol class given by Mossy Creek Customs and Jeff Mimms in Nashville. Anyone have any knowledge of them?

Thanks

In the interest of full disclosure, Jeff is a friend of mine and I may be doing some instructing for Mossy Creek Custom in the future.

I haven't taken a course from Jeff but I have known him for about three years. Mossy Creek has done some gunsmithing work for me in the past. Jeff is a standup guy and is very knowledgeable w.r.t. firearms. We have discussed his classes since he started planning to offer them. I know he is running his classes the right way - a full 8 hours. He does use the full four hours on the range - so you should get to have a little fun in addition to the required qualification course of fire. Jeff has some prior LEO experience but do not plan on his HCP/NRA basic pistol class having a tactical flavor.

Let me know if you have any specific questions and I'll do my best to answer them.

Thanks Bubba-D. I know the whole training side of his business is really fairly new. His immediate e-mail responses to my queries and his basic philosophies sounded right up my alley. I also like the fact that the HCP class and the NRA Basic Pistol class are combined. Finally, they shoot at Charlie Haffner's range...I love shooting outdoors, and I suspect for newbies, it is much less anxiety provoking during training than indoors (less noise etc). I can't make his July classes but I think I'll sign up soon.
