Monty80 Posted May 16, 2018 at 04:46 PM Share Posted May 16, 2018 at 04:46 PM Does anyone have a firearms trainer that they would recommend for senior citizen women? My mother just applied for a FOID card and will be applying for her CCL. She has zero experience with firearms and needs instruction. She is wanting to take classes not only for CCL but also for general firearm handling and safety. She is on the North side of Chicago and does not want to travel to far.

I've not taken classes with him, but I've had opportunity to converse with him and he's helpful and patient. Maybe give him a ring and have a chat.

Terry 9595 Posted May 17, 2018 at 04:52 PM Share Posted May 17, 2018 at 04:52 PM I teach First Shot every other Weds Evenings. Small classes, a lot of Seniors in the class, a lot of Women. I go slow so every one understands what is being said. The class is limited to no more then 4 people. She would shoot .22 cal and 9mm if she wants, I work at Midwest Guns in Lyons Terry Bell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
