4 Day Defensive Handgun Class Respondent

Saturday, October 18th, 2008

Dear Dr. Ignatius Piazza,

I just returned home after attending your 4-Day Defensive Handgun Course.

Outstanding course, outstanding instructors, excellent facilities.

I don’t think there is anything else I can say or need to say.

Dr. Piazza,

As a Scout Master for the past seven years, I know first hand how important it is to give the young men of our country these kinds of opportunities.  The training you provided allows these young men to gain an incredible amount of confidence in themselves and further prepare them to be the future leaders of this great country.

Well Done!

Scouts and Leadership - Response to Monday Blog Post

Friday, October 17th, 2008

Dr. Ignatius Piazza,

GREAT, FANTASTIC! You can’t imagine how much good you have done by your work with the Scouts. When my sons were Scout age I helped run an Explorer Post.  Here is some more information regarding the value of the Scouting Program.

  • During WWII Gen. Eisenhower realized that there was a vast shortage of junior officers (Lieutenants) ordered that all enlisted mens’ personnel records be examined to locate any who were (prior to enlistment) Eagle Scouts.  Realizing the leadership these men had thus previously demonstrated they were to be immediately issued battlefield commissions.
  • Upon receiving an appointment to one…

Greetings Dr. Piazza,

I have just completed the 4 day defensive hand gun & CCW at Front Sight. In my opinion and the opinion of the friends that attended with me, the classes were far more than expected. It was one of those endeavors that happen so rarely, in that the benefit far exceeded the cost & one actually comes away having received more than expected. It was also a major realization finding out just how much I didn’t know & how to correct it within 5 days.

The instructors were all of excellent demeanor & consideration. They were very effective…

From the Mail Bag

Dear Dr. Piazza,

I just started receiving your newsletters.

I think they are great!

I’ve just started to use firearms and got a CCW permit.

I’m 59 years old and just came to the realization that I really am not able to protect my wife or myself or any of my loved ones from an assailant.

Your newsletters are already starting to give me the confidence that my situation about protecting my loved ones is about to change.

Thank you for starting up Front Sight. I intend to attend one of your classes very soon.

Thanks

Barry J.

Response from Handgun Convert

Dear Dr. Piazza,

I have just read your 2nd newsletter& am finding these interesting.

This coming from a lady that one year ago hated handguns!

I took a local beginner class, starting going to the range every 1-2 weeks and got hooked on trying to improve. My husband and I completed the CCW class Feb. 2008. I absolutely look forward to my range time each time! I just wish that you had a facility somewhere in the southeast. But we have thought about saving up the money and in a year or two making the effort to check into your…

Response to first 15 Gun Training Reports

Friday, October 3rd, 2008

Dear Dr. Piazza,

I just wanted to thank you and let you know I have been receiving your reports.  They are truly amazing.

Especially the Combat Mindset, the Color Code of Awareness, and how it applies to your brain not being able to comprehend an attack. This is great information that really has a practical application every day.

I can’t tell you how excited I am to open my email and see the next report.  I am going to miss them.  I do plan on taking advantage of one of the great offers like the one in Training Report #13.…

Regarding yesterday’s blog post

Dr. Piazza,

Thanks for sending that eye-opening news report about children and unsecured weapons.

Within ten minutes of watching that video, I ordered a GunVault locking gun case.

That was a timely piece, one my wife and I needed to see.

Thanks again.

Who do criminals fear?

Sunday, September 28th, 2008
Dr. Piazza,Excellent instruction.I well remember a study that was done a number of years ago, involving interviews with violent criminals in prison in order to determine what they feared while they were out committing mayhem upon the public.

They did not fear the police because they would be long gone before the police arrived.

They did not fear the judicial system because of plea bargining and shortened sentences due to prison overcrowding.

Their only fear, in their own words, was the possibility that their next victim might be armed.

Nuff said.

“Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition.”

Lock and…

Dear Dr. Piazza;I’ve been receiving your gun training reports for several weeks and have really been enjoying them, especially the reports about the Color Code of Awareness.  I’ve also really been enjoying following your blog and all the great insights you bring to current events regarding real-life self defense situations.

Thank you for all that you do for the most important amendment to our Constitution, and for the empowerment of everyone you have helped to train.

I just recently (this past June) became interested in firearms, specifically for defending myself and those around me.  You can’t imagine how refreshing it…
