THANKS JOHN!
I really enjoyed the class. Much better than the dps driving school!
Anyone looking to take a ccw class... I highly recommend Hansen! I really didn't expect that I would learn much, but couple John's personal experiences and his knowlege of guns/gun laws..... I got a helluvalot more out of his class than a 'text book' instructor could have ever dreamed of delivering. I was really happy with the class management (20 or so applicants) as well. Thanks again John!

Again thanks John!

Also agree on highly recommending John Hansen CCW class. I opted to drive a little further than a closer course being conducted and was glad I did. I even plan on taking other courses he has to offer. Anybody out there thinking about CCW should definately stop thinking about it and just do it. You'll be glad you did. Call or email John Hansen and make it happen. If you don't, you'll regret the moment that you decided to show, threaten or use your gun without this knowledge. There is so much that you do not realize that would ruin your life to include that of you family and financial well being. This is especially true for those that carry and show it to downgrade a situation, not realizing that you have already escalated the situation to a prosecutable crime. If you want to know what I mean about this...take the class, or else suffer the consquences of ignorance (which will not be an excuse to the statutes)

That was easy as pie, smooth as silk and easy, very informative, a real eye opener.
John is a great instructor, up on the newest laws and has his hand on the heart of what is really going on daily.
There were a bunch of good folks from here that attended the coarse also, I'm glad Daniel changed his mind and came to this one, he had a lot of good questions that were answered.
Thanks again John, Ill be talking with you soon.

Thanks for putting on the March 11 class. I left your class with a very good understanding of when I can shoot and what to do after I shoot. The class was well presented with lots of good information. Now that I know the legal requirements. Thanks again,

Jim

Just wanted to give some feedback and a big thanks to Hansen and his wife for putting on the CCW class today, and for fitting me in a little late. The class was great, very informative, and John was GREAT about answering questions that came up.

Thanks again, John!

I took Arizona CCW class on 08/24/2008 and my card was in the mail today. Just wanted to thank John again for making the class fun, not to mention dirt-cheap. As far as I'm concerned, John is the man to go to if you need your AZ or UT permit. I also think John deserves all our support for dealing with the worst of the worst scum out there on a daily basis. Thanks again, John and be safe out there.

Ed

I was at the 8/24/2008 class and thoroughly enjoyed the instruction from John. You will learn a lot and I can guarantee
that the class won't remind you of your U.S. History class in high school. By that I mean this is fun, interesting and
invaluable. I also received my CCW card yesterday and will be carrying today. Tell everyone you know that if they
are looking to get a CCW that they would be foolish to go anywhere else. John is a great guy and you feel important
while your there.

CCW Class More Than Worthwhile

I can’t think of 8 hours in recent memory more well-spent than yesterday. A few weeks back, I mentioned John Hansen’s CCW Class.

John is in Law Enforcement, so he offers a great perspective. He has a down-to-earth, easygoing style that makes the material interesting. Students were 100% comfortable asking questions in the classroom. His knowledge of the material presented was clearly current, and accompanied by the appropriate references. Training materials were complete and well-organized. His experience allowed for lots of anecdotal evidence to reiterate his points, without embellishment or bravado. The range portion had folks at all levels of expertise - John kept range procedures firm, yet relaxed enough that new shooters were not uncomfortable or intimidated.

Topics covered included firearms safety, legal issues, use of force, concealment laws, threat analysis, conflict resolution, home defense planning, non-lethal defense, and shooting fundamentals. The course was approximately 8 hours, with roughly 2 hours spent at the range. Students have to pass a written test, as well as a practical shooting test.

John does more than just cover the mandatory material, though - he fingerprints you and assists everyone in filling out their CCW application. Literally, when you leave that class, all you have to do is get a money order or cashier’s check for the DPS fee ($60), put postage on the envelope, and send it in. Best of all - this class will run you 40 bucks. I haven’t seen one for that price anywhere. This is one of those rare cases where you get more than what you pay for.

Seriously, I would recommend this class to anyone who has even the faintest interest in firearms. Whether you are interested in a CCW Permit or not, the information presented in this class is interesting and important. Ladies - fear not. There were a couple of gals in our class, and I think John went out of his way to make them feel comfortable and they were considered equal members of the class.

If you have ever considered taking a CCW Class - or not - DO IT! Check out John’s site Black Wolf Defense for FAQ’s, schedules, info and more.

Took the class yesterday (10/18/2008) with John and I gotta say, it was EYE-POPPIN! 

Even more important than being able to legally carry - are the potential consequences from NOT knowing the legal ramifications should it ever be necessary TO shoot.

John brings the class down to earth with current events and local stories that we've all heard about on the news, but never knew just how complicated the rules of engagement are!

I will always act to protect my family and myself - but after John's class I am vastly less likely to end up behind bars for doing the right thing!

TAKE THE CLASS! YOU'LL BE GLAD YOU DID!!

Pistol Marksmanship 1 (10-11-2008) was great. I really liked the moving drills at the end.

I was definitely shooting better by the end of the course. It was about 4 hours long. J. Hansen was a good teacher. The course is pretty good for new shooters to get comfortable actually hitting their intended targets.

I was in your class today (12-6-2008).  Thanks for getting me in.  A very good class. 

Sincerely, Alan Van Alstine

Just wanted to say thanks and it was a very informative yet entertaining way to earn my CCW. I would suggest if anyone needs to get theirs, their CCW, then Hansen is your man.....great class (12-6-2008).

Jim

I will second that. My dad and I were in the class today (12-6) and it was very informative as well as fun.

Levi

While it was quite a drive for me also, (I drove all the way from mesa) it was worth it. Great class and great teacher.
Thanks John!
