I recently took my first CCW class and had a great time with Jim as the teacher. He was helpful and approachable, both in the classroom and at the shooting range. Thank you Jim for making our long day an enjoyable learning experience!

Jim Erwin aka the Kraken is a top Instructor. Very informative, high energy and a laugh a minute, while imparting the information to the class. He made a dry subject matter interesting and made sure everyone got all the information needed. He was also able to answer any question thrown at Him. Out on the range his lifetime of gun experience was quite evident. He was able to help each shooter to learn proper shooting techniques out on the range. So by the end of the day He answered all our questions, taught us to shoot properly and made it a fun day. It was like hanging out with a super-gun-knowledgeable friend.
You cannot go wrong picking Jim Erwin as your Instructor.

Effective! Private 2-Hour Lesson (Brand New CCW holder)

My daughter and I, got our CCW with Jim a few months ago (highly recommended) and now I’ve just wrapped up a 2-hr private lesson to help me become more comfortable with my pistol (the lesson was a gift from my daughter). I’m new to pistols, so I needed someone to walk me through the basics. Jim went step-by-step through everything from loading, proper stance, safety, aiming, and firing, to storing my pistol. Jim is a great instructor, patient, easy to learn from, and he really, really, really knows his stuff! His bio may seem a bit intimidating if you’re new to shooting, but he is a natural at teaching and was able to help me feel comfortable with my pistol and the basics during our lesson.

My husband and I are new to target shooting. Friends highly recommended Jim Erwin. Although we were a little anxious, we felt very comfortable as soon as we arrived. The long day went very fast. We learned so much and laughed often. We had doubts we could pass the CCW test but Jim made it easy. By the way, we are in our mid 70’s. So if you are thinking about a CCW or (like us) just getting educated in the law and acquiring shooting skills, do not hesitate. Thank you Jim.
