New to the board, looking for CCW recommendation

Postby Ron Burgundy on Wed Mar 16, 2011 7:34 pm

Hi, I'm new here.

I appreciate the section that allows PTC instructors to post but I'm looking for recommendations from those who have taken a PTC course. Who did you take it from, did you like it and why? There seems to be no shortage of instructors/courses in the metro. Thanks!

+1 MN doesn't have a CCW permit.

I would give a big shout out to JoeH here on the board.

Because I'm merely a resident. Only the mayor has the authority to foghorn incorrect terminology. However, since you asked, is this better?

What? That's not the foghorn you were looking for? How about this?

Thank you, all, for your introductions and the PMs with recommendations.

@ThunderJohn - it was to meet you at the gun show on Saturday.

@DeanC - love that avatar --- now if only I was savvy enough to figure out how to make it my avatar...
