Great class, instructors were very good with making sure that the information needed for the class was understood clearly, and getting the class to engage in conversation about the legal responsibility of having a CCW.
Melissa from Columbus, Ohio
Very interesting and informative class. Well worth taking even if you aren't interested in obtaining a CCW certificate.
Jaime from Lancaster, OH
I researched a couple of other CCW classes that were ultimately cheaper, but sign up at Vance for the instructor bios and modern facilities. Training was very serious and I learned new gun handling and safety skills that I continue practice every morning. Well worth the cost of the class. I plan on taking the self defense handgun track next.
Mark from London, Ohio

David from Grove City, OH
Have you ever thought, Great, the stinking spare tire is flat. Gotta get that fixed. . Then three months later you get a flat, go to get the spare and, OH MAN! or some other not so nice words. Well what do you think your going to be thinking after you saw Vances is giving CCW classes and you decide to put that off and now you are looking out from behind a car with some nut shooting at you because you were playing your music too loud
Vance makes it easy with choices of class types, dates and forums. The staff is very helpful in picking out the right weapon, ammo and class room / range qualification. JUST DO IT!
