Big Name Firearms training in DFW, TX?

[Orclin]

I know there are a number of facilities in the DFW area that offer various training but I'm interested in the bigger names.
What will it take to get someone like Mas Ayoob to come to DFW to teach a Mag-40 class?
Maybe there is someone in the industry that reads this forum that could handle all the scheduling, organizing, etc... that goes along with a visiting instructor :-)
What say you all? Who would you like to train with?
(Tyler & Mingus TX are too far, let's keep it in the DFW area)

My choices are as follows:

1) Mag-40, Mas Ayoob
2) Combat Focus & Adv. Pistol, Rob Pincus - I.C.E.
3) Close Range Gun fighting, Suarez Intl.
4) Defensive Pistol Skills, Suarez Intl.
5) Point Shooting Gunfight Skills, Suarez Intl.
+ Matt Burkett, Rob Leatham, ? (for IDPA/USPSA training)

I don't know what it takes to get Mas. I know he's doing a Mag-20 in LA (arranged by Alex Haddox of the Practical Defense podcast) and the Gun Dudes (of the eponymous podcast) are trying to get him to Utah in September. Common theme there is Gun Rights Radio Network.

Anyone know Bob Mayne of the Handgun World Podcast? Maybe he can get Mas to come here.

Already spoke with Bob and posted on his forum. I first posted this over there, not much response. Bob mentioned possible issues with ranges to host.
Elm Fork, Irving - Will only allow Law enforcement to train, I believe.
Jacob's Plane, Greenville - ?
JCSSA - ?
Alpine, Ft. Worth - ?
Dallas Pistol Club - ?
Quail Creek, Argyle - ?

Love his podcast though, and would recommend it to everyone.

You might check with Hanny (here)
North Texas Tactical Training Instructor Information

There's also Magpul dynamics, Todd Green, ShivWorks, Tom Givens, Tactical Response, and Andy Stanford that are traveling trainers.


Some big names like Ken Hackathorn, Larry Vickers, SouthNarc, and Todd L. Green are coming to College station this year.

If there is enough interest to justify his coming here to do a class, Max Joseph with TFTT will do it. I am an alumnus and liasoned with him on a rifle class a couple of years ago.
