"As a fairly new shooter, LiveFire's Introduction to Handguns was just what I needed to feel comfortable at the range. The techniques and tips provided during the session were highly valuable in helping me better my accuracy. Alan's in depth knowledge of firearms and the related sports was a definite bonus in helping me navigate my way into the sport." S.K.
