I know there is a training section but this is easier to get to people from my area. Any one know of any decent pistol and or rifle training courses around the NH area? Id like to get more proficient with my AR and my Pistol.

I highly recommend a course with Bruce Gray.  He's coming to Deerfield, MA in May.  No carbine this course, but there will be plenty of pistol and a day of shotgun, too.

If you are LE, military or security, here is a Colt tactical pistol and carbine course just announced today in Southwick, MA:

Colt Defense Tactical Pistol and Carbine Course, Southwick, MA

There is also a class beginning to be planned now with Jerry Jones in August for Deerfield, MA.  It will be a Tactical Pistol and Carbine Course.  I'll post as soon as the dates are set in stone and we have club approval.

Check out www.neshooters.com for training at Pelham by some of the best trainers in the US/Internationally known. They bring in some top notch "traveling trainers".



There is a Summit with a bunch of these trainers over a single weekend coming up in a week or two.





I've taken some of these courses and am friends with those that run them, but have no business interest in their activities.

You are correct. It is illegal for you to bring any guns/ammo into MA . . . unless it is to a "competition". Some trainers have issued a "competition letter" to NRs and run a brief competition at the end of their class to make it all nice and legal.

There is a daily competition built in to every course that Gray Guns puts on in MA.

You've got this place in your back yard and it's well worth it.   Last year I took four classes there and plan on taking more this year.

Bruce Gray instructs there, too.  Some of his courses are listed on the Handgun training page.

the beginner courses arent that badly priced 200 bucks i may have to check it out. Have any of you gone to the more advanced ones? The prices appear to be almost 500 is it worth that?

MA gun laws are what prohibit me from taking any carbine training courses offered there.  By the time I make my AR ban-compliant, and obtain enough reliable pre-ban mags to run a course, I've spent enough to take a completely different course at Sig Sauer.

This.  NES is hosting some bona fide tip-of-the-spear tier one guys ... in NH.

My sentiments exactly.  You are taking chances in Massachusetts even if your gun complies, you get the wrong police officers and what you have is a good defense and legal fees.

Get your camo or tactical clothing on, get in an auto accident and respond to a question about where you are going and the next question will be about weapons in the car.  See where that takes you.  

Sig has a nice facility and my experience with the instructors is that they are competent, enjoy their work and make the experience a good time.

Check Sig Academy, you may also want to see if Massad Ayoob Group will be holding  a class in NH. Check with Pelham Fish and Game Club as I have been told they are very active in the Handgun Art Form

Just to resolve some natural confusion.



NES = www.northeastshooters.com a regional forum with tons of good (and some bad) legal info on local gun laws.



NEShooters = www.neshooters.com a couple of guys running a training website where they bring pros to the New England region.



The two are not related, other than NEShooters advertises on NES.
