I don't know what's going on on the wet side but I know I'm planning to go to the next Appleseed shoot in September(Think it's in Yakima, can't remember).

FAS seems pretty popular:

If you search the archives further back than one year you can probably find more informative posts.

When you do decide to take classes you'll have a new Galati / AR15.Com 37" XT Rifle Case to carry your gear in!

Insights General Defensive Rifle

I took this class several years ago when I had just purchased my first AR-15.  Instructors are very good, professional, non-dogmatic about what they instruct.  Well-paced between range time and discussion time.  Held at an indoor range, so it's not really going to test your long-range skills, but for learning to shoot quickly close-in I highly recommend it.

I concur. I spent time taking this class before learning any bad habits.

Insights is top notch and good people. I've also taken their general defensive handgun and defensive folding blade classes--both similarly useful and full of good material.

After taking the rifle class, I learned that there are advantages to a lightweight build after carrying a heavy barrel around for 2 days.

You'll need a CPL or other "proof of good character" to take classes with them.
