Ive owned and fired plenty of firearms and always thought myself mildly competent. I always meant to take classes and learn some "tricks as I thought of them.

But after having read some of the articles on here and really thought about it I understand how truly important actual training can be. That it will make all the difference in the world if some time it comes down to protecting my self or my family.

So I'm putting aside the anti social paranoia and looking for a good set of classes or even just the right direction to look in.

I'm wanting to take classes in pistol and rifle "use" is the best word I can think of. I doubt combat training is going to come first thing.

Can anyone suggest some good classes to start with? Money's a bit tight right now as it always is but I feel this needs to be a priority. Anything near Arlington WA would be best.

Thanks in advance, as always.

I took a defensive pistol class with Insights out of bellevue, was very happy with the instruction and the profesionalism.

Not sure if LMS still has classes here.
