Sherriff Writes In
Dr. Ignatius,
I am enjoying your newsletters and insights into your training courses. I am associated with the Washington County Sheriff Department Search and rescue and have been for several years. It is all volenteer and at our own expence but they have been training us and letting us ure their range and instructors (range masters) to help us be profiient so when we go out with our conceal and carry permits on cleaning up marijauna crops and other activites we have training for the just in case modes. I know that I would like more training and to be…

Living in Interesting Times
Dr. Piazza
I received an e-mail this morning relating to your academy and offer to help SAF members obtain the training they might not otherwise be able to afford. This is just a note to tell you how much I appreciate your efforts. On a recent Delta flight, the young lady from Salt Lake City sitting beside me told me how her father had taken her with him to Front Sight. Being from Connecticut myself, it is always refreshing to see young men and women who have not been deluded by the liberal media’s campaign against firearms. To meet young…

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words …
I’m often asked why Front Sight students – average ordinary citizens – have gun handling, marksmanship and tactical skills that exceed law enforcement and military personnel.
The reason is that Front Sight Firearms Training Institute simply provides more training and better training than one can get in a police academy or the military and we provide it without any boot camp mentality or drill instructor attitudes.
Another way to look at it is to consider for a moment that law enforcement and military do not get as much or as good a training…

Response from Free Gun Training Report Subscriber
Dr. Piazza,
I spent eight years in the U.S. Army and just over a year as a Deputy Sheriff. So, I do extend my deepest thanks to you for assisting “Warriors” in their training. I am looking forward to reading the rest of your reports and maybe someday I will be able to stand beside you and your staff on the range. Thank you again!
A new friend,
Daniel

Sheepdog writes in
Dr. Piazza,
I enjoyed reading the letter from Col. Grossman. In the analogy of a ranch, I would be a sheepdog and have been for 34 and a half years. I started shooting pistol ( 9mm Browning Hi Power) with a Field Ambulance unit in 1974 in inter unit competitions. My career is coming to an end and I expect one more tour, perhaps Afganistan, to come my way before my contract is up. I am currently awaiting delivery of a Springfield Armoury .45 “Loaded” model full size to add to my collection. I’ve read most of your E-letters and…

Preserve our Gun Rights
Dr. Piazza,
I wanted to thank you for your time and passion in helping preserve our given rights to protect ourselves. My dad, brother and I took the 4-day handgun course in October of last year, and were blown away with what we learned! Not only are we more confident in our skills to prevail if we were ever involved in a gunfight, but we now also have the metal preparedness to be more aware of our surroundings and be able to avoid the fight altogether! I now have the passion to share what I’ve learned with my friends and…

Gun Training for the Physically Disabled
Dr. Piazza,
I always look forward to reading your news letters along with your Gun Training Reports.
One of these times I would like to take advantage of one of your generous offers.
I am in California and an old buddy of mine lives in Denver. I’ve been talking to him about meeting up at Front Sight. We are both fire arm enthusiasts and both are challenged by limited mobility because of medical problems.
The problem is one of endurance. He (Drew) has a weak heart and I am blessed to have neuropathy in both legs.
In watching your videos…

Inspirational Letter
Dr. Piazza,I would love to attend one of your training classes, but it is not in my financial budget.
I am a disabled mother of 3 Autistic children. I can not afford the price of your class. I’ve been a victim of Domestic Violence. I am struggling to survive.
I am paying for my local concealed weapons class in small monthly payments. That’s the only way I was able to receive my training. I took the class and I have to do my range time. I have to use my stimulus check to buy my firearm.
I appreciate the…

Gun Training for Girlfriends, too
Dr, Ignatius Piazza,
I wish to thank you for your free information and the newsletters you have entitled me to have at my convenience. I am a disabled vet who gets by as best he can and also have a girlfriend who I am trying to teach how to shoot and I am looking forward to using your newsletters and the info contained in them for this training. In this day and age, it is difficult to figure who is who and who knows what one needs for training and above all, where firearms are concerned.
My girlfriend and I…

Great Gun Training Reports
Dr. Piazza,
These gun training reports are GREAT. I’ve already learned things for FREE that I would have been willing to pay for to make my family and myself safer. Thanks so much for the tips so far and I look forward to the coming days for more. I can’t wait to attend a course at Front Sight in person!! THANKS AGAIN.
Mike
