This episode is Part 2 of our 4 part series dedicated to new gun owners.  The guys discuss and breakdown the 3 types of firearms classes that defensive shooters should be familiar with, and what to expect when signing up.  A critical part of the training process is the quality of instruction and this means that new shooters need to know how to navigate the sea of instructors and how to separate the good from the bad.  You will learn the questions to ask, and the things to look for, when vetting the instructors for your next class.
