Defensive Edge hosts AR-15/M16 armorer classes now and then that are open to the general public. If they don't have one scheduled near you, if you can round up enough local interest, they'll host one in your area.

Looks like there is an open class in Texas in a few weeks:

Dude, thanks! I signed up. It says to bring your own weapon.. i'm a bit weirded out about bringing a machine gun into a school. I guess it's OK though since it's for the class.

I attended a course of theirs years ago in Indiana, and all I happened to own at the time was an M16, so I made arrangements ahead of time to use one of their AR-15's. If you have a semi-auto, just take it. I doubt anyone there will be bringing a transferable.

You can always send Greg Sullivan an IM to work things out:

Sully runs a good course, I took it about 4 years ago. Two days very well spent.

I took Sully's class a few years ago.  Great experience and really gets you comfortable and stripping, maintaining, and reassembling everything on the rifle.  The best part is to be able to try everything knowing you have an infinitely supply of springs and parts and the oversight of someone teaches you to do it right.

That place looks great!

Dallas is a nice area as well...



Look, if y'all want to get together and pay my lodging, travel expenses, meals, and maybe a bar tab, I'll come show you whatever you want to know... 2 days, 3 days, whatever you need.



(I even let spellchecker change my usual ya'll to y'all, as good grammar is essential to positive instruction!)

If I cant get into a Colt course, I like the SIG course on the gas impingement AR.  I think their M16 course is LEO only, but it doesnt hurt to ask since they sell their proprietary M4 piston uppers to the general public.

Nothing against the other courses mentioned in this post, but as an Armorer for a WPPS program, we are limited to who we can get certified by, and which courses get reimbursed for.  In the same ball park about who will accept you since when not overseas, you dont carry creds that allow you into a LEO only course unless you are known to the course provider.

Did talk to a gent at FNMI about having FNH USA sponsor a Civie Armorer class, but they said it was good idea, but they contracted out some of their training to a third party out of Frederickburg, VA (maybe Crucible) and they tried to keep it LEO or MIL only - but that could change with pressure from consumers of their FN15 line.

Just food for thought.
