”I liked the fact that you encouraged questions. I also really liked the fact that you stated up front that the instructor is the only one that should be giving directions at the range. I do believe for those that brought their own handgun, they should have a little more knowledge about their guns before offering to others to shoot them. Great job and would love to learn more from you, maybe a part two with more range time.
