540 Tactical is doing one in March that is a fundraiser for Clackamas County SWAT medics. Discounted price is $200 for the charity. It's going to be at Douglas Ridge. I'm signed up. Info HERE.

Near Brownsville. Good bunch. They were still improving their facility the last time I was there, but it was already nice. |

Oops, looks like they are shutting down. Sad to see them go. I was wanting to try to make it back up that way for a little refresher.

I've looked into Thunder Ranch but at the end of the day it's a bit over my price range once you add in hotel+food for 2-3 days.

Don't forget lead-free ammo. And what's the wait like to get into a class? That's what was nice about OFA. You could actually get into a class without having to wait 2 years and the instructors were all Thunder Ranch trained. |

Check out immediate action concepts. Class next Sunday at Douglas Ridge. He just posted his 2017 schedule on his site. It's one day, but he's pretty good about not teaching to the lowest common denominator

That looks like a great option. I'm going to look into them some more.
Thanks! |

I've taken a couple classes up there. Marty is a good instructor. Its not actually in Seattle. It is about a 90 min drive from Portland so still have to factor in a hotel or a long ass drive. |

I ended up signing up with Immediate Action Concepts in June. I'll report back when finished!
Thanks for the advice! |

Good to hear. I'm hoping to get out to one of his pistol courses in the next few months. I think having his classes at DR should bring a few more people.
