LTC class recommendations in NWH?

[OlongJohnson]

Posting here instead of in the CHL forum because I'm really looking for a local recommendation. I am in the Cypress area. Just wondering if anyone in the area has any strong recommendations for a best place to take an LTC class. I like the convenience of Hot Wells because they're close and you can walk outside to do the live fire part (when they aren't under water), but I'd compromise on that if there are recommendations for significantly better classroom presentation somewhere else. I'm always in for the best use of time listening to someone I can learn from talk.

I live nearby, on the west side of Spring, and have had several people tell me that Shiloh Shooting Range has the best CHL classes in this area. I plan on going over there very soon to complete the class and get all the paperwork submitted.

Crush, kill, mangle, maim, destroy.

The guys at Shiloh are great guys!

I did mine at Shiloh, was a great course and had a good time. Wife did hers at Hot Wells, and while it was good and she enjoyed it, the instructor was behind on the recent (at the time) law changes.

I originally (2008) did mine at Top Gun downtown. Recert at Shiloh. I have taken several other courses with 360 Tactical Training and really enjoyed them.

I took my class at Shiloh a year and a half ago. Recommended.

Spring Guns & Ammo. They have their own fingerprint office so it's hassle-free.

The fingerprint office is nearby, but you still need to make an appointment and it's not part of SGA. I did my class at SGA in February and the first available fingerprinting appointment was 10 days later. Nice thing was the shooting qualification was done at the beginning of the class (before the range opened to the public).

It is in the same building as the class.

The building where my class was held (and where the fingerprint office is located) is across the parking lot from SGA. Now, if the fingerprint office were open around class time and you didn't need an appointment, then it would be "hassle-free".

All fingerprints need an appointment as it is scheduled by the state. Sorry that walking 20yds across the parking lot is too much hassle. I reckon if yo can get to SGA to do your class, you can get back to do your fingerprints. If you're driving 1hr to a CHL class that's your own fault.

check groupon, i did mine with pasadena CHL. bit of a drive, but my class was only $55. The class is mostly common sense, and the shooting part and test are extremely easy.

No problem. Just trying to make sure the OP has accurate info. Thanks for the confirmation.

Shiloh. There is an office that does fingerprinting down the street. If I recall correctly, the office is a Sylvan Learning Center.

Did mine at Spring Guns and Ammo through groupon, got it for $35 bucks.

 

[PCMusicGuy]

Did mine at the VFW off of 290 @ Telge. It was through a $45 groupon with Delta Range 93. Seemed like a good basic class; all the information was current.

It is quite a different experience than some of the CHL classes in Louisiana. My brother told me about the CHL class from one of the neighbors in rural LA and they had lots of shooting time, basic self defense instruction, even going so far as to show you (and make you practice) how to disarm someone holding guns on you in various positions.

I would like to ask for anything good in the sugar land or Fort Bend area that you have had experience with ?

Don't know if it would be too far for you, but I have one spot open at the Impact Zone this weekend. I only take 10 students at a time. www.paynedefenseacademy.com

^^^^ that

I would not take it from Hot Wells. I just took mine there and would not do it again. The class was fine but for the shooting part they lined us up to shoot very close. We were shooting so close together our shirt sleeves were hitting each other and the spent casings were burning the person to the right of several shooters. I would like to brag that I shot perfect (one of two in the class) while collecting 4 circular burn marks on my exposed neck and having dozens of casings land on my shoulder.
