    I have taken the "Refuse to Be a Victim" "Intermediate Handgun" "Firearm Legal" and my girlfriend and I both have taken the "Introduction to shooting"
    I highly enjoyed all the courses and though they were well done and very informative!

    I always enjoy Applied Ballistics and got a great deal on a very minty Smith & Wesson M64 (Central American copper gun) last fall. It is a great community resource and now that a full roster of classes are being offered, I am overjoyed.

    I think I may visit now that you're manning the ship, sir.

    I thought there was still the gentleman's agreement that you would stay out of Lafayette whilst I am in town?

    Mr. Heath is a fantastic instructor. He is also an incredibly talented shooter. Can't recommend him enough.

    Picked up Purdue's 2015 salary guide today, and who has a big advertisement at the bottom but Applied Ballistics with a generous 25% off of range rental fees for students. :D

    I might have to find a bus that could get me there some weekend.

    Is there any shotgun use on the range? If so is a Stoeger Condor available? I'm considering one and would like to try it.
