where is this training?

http://www.frontsight.com/

 

Front Sight is in NV .....

 

He is always giving deals..... great place for training. Buddy of mine when there for Shotgun classes....

 

Its the Airfare / Hotel etc..... that will cost you the most....

If your gonna go..... then just go for this deal...

 

https://www.frontsight.com/free-gun.asp

 

Its unreal what you get....

 

Just need a week off from work.... and the $$$

IMO $100 vs $1200 is a much better deal...even with a free gun, An XD is about $500, so it still costs $700.

 

I am sure once you go they will have more discounted offers. It's $100 to "get your feet wet".

 

At $100, I would even consider bringing my wife.

I was going to go for my b-day. If anyone wants to come with I would love the company.

I took advantage of a Front Sight deal a few years ago--lifetime membership plus a glock pistol and gear for $2000! I took the four day defensive handgun course. The only reason I haven't gone back is because I could not afford to (airfare, hotel room, car rental, etc. all add up).

 

As soon as I get over my current medical issue, I'm going to get a second job to save up for another trip out there, hopefully by spring.

has anyone taken any of these? it looks intense. probably too intense for my fat old ass

wow this is expensive

 

figure a 4 day course at 2k + car rental, hotel, dinner. Gun rental and ammo cost which is gougerific, and 12.95 if you want lunch delivered lol

 

on the flip side, a diamond membership is under 99k...

Why wouldn't you bring your own gun you are already familiar with?

This is why I think the $1200 deal with FREE SA XD is a better deal....

 

IF your gonna spend all the money on a plane flight, hotel, rental car, food for a 2 day course..... Bite the bullet stay a few more days and take all those courses....

Id pull an all nigher at the craps table and miss the class

 

lol

While I have no personal experience with Frontsight, just wanted to point out that they have had quite a few legal problems in the past. I don't remember the specifics of the recent case, but there was a class action lawsuit against either Piazza or Frontsight (can't remember which) that I believe was eventually settled. I'm sure a google search will turn up the info if anyone is interested. I don't doubt the validity of the training provided by Frontsight, but some of the "deals" that are offered just seem entirely too gimmicky to me. And, honestly, for the price, you can probably get better training elsewhere. That's just opinion on my part, of course.

Either way, just a friendly heads up.

Someone is trying to earn brownie points with chris...

 

LOL Chris doesn't do handgun classes in NJ and I can't take them in NY

Why and why?

Not to derail this thread too much, but I don't know why he doesn't do them here.. i've never seen him offer a handgun class in NJ. As far as taking them up in NY, I forget the specifics, but something about the gun laws there don't allow non-permit holding people to handle/fire handguns. And since they only give permits to residents, it's a no go.

And I really wasn't referring to him. There are plenty of other schools (not in NJ) that charge 1/3 of what frontsight does for a 2 day handgun class. Well, not 1/3 of the $100 class that's really $1000

The second class MDTS did in NJ in 2006 was a Combative Pistol Skills course and the 2 consecutive weekend classes we did at Buckeye earlier this year were combined Carbine and Pistol Skills. I have not done a dedicated pistol course recently because there seems to be more interest whenever the Carbine is involved. Maybe this coming spring we can do a Combative Pistols Skills course if you guys have not drank the koolaide and joined up at FS!
