Casey and Stan were great they made the classroom environment very comfortable, especially for beginners. very informative and willing to answer any and all questions… even to the point of doing some quick online research to clarify a very difficult scenario discussed in my class. HUGE emphasis on the importance continuing you and your family in firearm education, which i feel is very important all aspects of safety, law, care, etc were covered in detail along wiht a very complete and comprehensive take home packet which includes the ENTIRE conceal carry law«its pratically a book in itself!» HIGHLY recommend this group for any and all of your firearm training needs PS casey mentioned he is also starting an archery training course!

We recently took our Illinois Concealed Carry class here. It was put together in a well organized, consistent, professional and educational manner. When you are considering where to commit your 16 hours of training these characteristics are imperative. I would highly recommend this course for anyone looking to apply for a CCW permit. Casey offers other classes as well and we will most likely be back for future instruction.

Casey and the team were excellent and it was hands down one of the best pistol classes I have ever taken. They were extremely knowledgeable, professional and provided a great learning atmosphere with strong emphasis on safety. I can’t wait to take another class with this team. Highly recommended

I have found Firearms Safety Group to be a excellent resource for pistol shooting instruction and, more recently for the Illinois Concealed Carry training. I had a fair amount of firearms training and experinces 30+ years ago when I worked as a Chicago Police officer during the decade of the 70s but had not done hardly any shooting since then up until a couple of years ago when a relative invited me to go shooting again. As I began to rekindle my interst in shooting as a hobby it occurred to me that I could benefit from some addtional professional training. I found this organization at while randomly seraching the internet and signed up for the NRA Basic Pistol class. Casey Fuller and two other instructors conducted the class which included people who ranged all across the board from almost from neophytes, to those with some but not a lot of skill/experience and some with quite a bit. I was quite impressed with how they manged to taylor individual instuciton to suit the needs of each student. SAFETY training was paramount — being emphasized over and over again. All three instructors have many many years of experience as trainers in both the military and police work. Therefore when this group began to offer classes for the training required to apply for an Illinois Concealed Carry license I knew where to go. I was even more impressed with that class which I attended one week ago. The same three people provided the instruction with Mr. Fuller taking the lead and doing most of the classroom lecture as well as leading the class through repeated dry fire holster drills with the ever-present emphasis on safety. The other thing which impressed me greatly was the overall tone of Mr. Fuller’s message which cautioned the students about the right and wrong reasons to legally carry a concealed handgun. From the very begining he pounded home the idea that the only valid reason for a private citizen to carry a concealed firearm in their day-to day activities(excluding hunting, travel to the range, etc.) was for the defense of self and others to prevent death or grave injury and, then only as a last resort. They taught that the use of non-lethal means such as pepper spray to meet a threat and avoid serious harm was to be preferred over deadly force if at all possible. The class also gave very thorough instruction on the new law with emphais on all of the areas where concealed carry of firearms by licensees is prohibited and the«parking lot exception» with respect to those phohibited areas. The Illinois laws regarding the use of deadly force for self defense were also covered thoroughly and accurately. I have no hesitation in recommending the classes offered by Mr. Fuller and his collegues and intend to seek addtional training from them myself in the furture.

fsg is a great firearm training organization. A few years ago I took my Utah and Florida classes, a pistol safety class and just this week the ill cc class. If I have taken one thing away from the classes is safety, safety, safety. The trainers are very knowledgeable, professional, and very patient. I continue to learn a lot each class I take, even though I grew up hunting and shooting. With lots of class options and locations fsg will be my only choice for all my firearm courses, the smaller class sizes are a huge plus for personal instruction. I completely agree with the other reviews
