Who would you recommend? I have a group of people mostly living west of 494 and north of 394 that are interested in obtaining MN permits. Please do not answer "Me" if you are an instructor, but do feel free to give positive feedback on someone else. Even better I would love to hear (via PM) which instructors to avoid...( 'cuz I've read enough to know you don't openly bash instructors here).
We are a price conscious group and I believe most people have little to no training or experience... We don't want $49 "No questions asked and no training provided" certificates. We do want ADEQUATE training to be safe & effective for the lowest possible price. I would also guess that most in our group do not have any handguns (yet ) so we'll need loaner/rental guns for the class and/or range test as well.
I would guess most in our group would be fine with a MN permit only, there may be a few that want an additional state (AZ/FL/UT/etc.) to really open up the carry possibilities across the country but that's not an absolute requirement to me and I'm the one gathering intel for the group.
