If You Can Follow Easy Directions, YOU Can Secure
A Front Sight Course for Only $100.

Dear Douglas,

Every day I receive numerous pleas from people to provide a
more affordable opportunity to attend a Front Sight course.

College students, retired people on fixed incomes, disabled
veterans, single moms, and people with every other
imaginable situation have e-mailed or written me asking for
a more affordable opportunity to attend a course with Front
Sight.

Well, if you can follow some very simple directions as
outlined below, you can secure a certificate to attend a
Two Day Defensive Handgun Course for ONLY $100 and use the
certificate at ANY time in the future.

This is the same Two Day Defensive Handgun Course that
normally costs $1,000, but I will make it available to you
through this very limited, Special Course Certificate Offer
for only $100.

That's right! Only $100 but you must follow the very
simple directions to the letter.

Here is how it works:

1. The Certificate is good for you to attend Front Sight's
Two Day Defensive Handgun Course at any time in the future
and has No Expiration Date.

2. The Certificate is good for a student's first course
only. Certificate is transferable, but not redeemable for
cash.

3. Simply mail a personal check or money order in the
amount of $100 made payable to Front Sight along with a

Do a search on how these guys conduct their business... The instructors rock, but the business side of the house is sleazy.

I personally will not have anything to do with them, but you need to form your own opinion.

 

+100..bro, sound advice

 

I did the handgun class, and the instruction was really good.

The business side, as Brian said, could be better.

But what are the alternatives in the western region? Thunder Ranch?

 

Thunder Ranch all day.

The really cool stuff can be found by former SOCOM guys who are basically doing seminars. I'll ask around and see whats going on in the SW.

 

Isn't Frontsight the one with that Guido dude (Dr. Ignacius Knowitall, or whatever) in like 5 different James Bond poses on the home page of their website? And then they offer you something free if you can pass their quiz, and everyone automatically passes the quiz because there are basically "no wrong answers."

They may offer great instruction, but that is the cheesiest website and sales ploy I have ever seen. Everything about them makes my hair hurt! And no one could take that dude seriously . . .

 

I read the offer. A two-day course for $100. I'm guessing either they will never have slots available for certificate holders, or homeboy is in big debt and may or may not be in business for you to redeem it. Especially since he says you can buy as many as you want.

But I'm a skeptic by nature. Maybe it's just a great deal.

 

Russ.... you're right on all counts...

 

Should I cancel the class or try it for the $100? I figured the lady and I could tie the two day class in with a small Vegas vaca.

Brian, is there anything local you would recommend? I spoke with Ken at Firearmz before, are you familiar with him?
