Concealed Handgun License

I just spent 5 days in the great town of Georgetown taking a Certified Concealed Handgun License Instructor class. It is a 36hr class taught by DPS officers to show us how to teach the Concealed Handgun License (CHL) class. I am really looking forward to teaching people all that I learned in the class. They are just lucky that it is only a 10 hour class that they get instead of the full 36hr class that I got to sit through. I am going to start with only teaching classes when I can get enough people together. Later on I will start having scheduled classes. On top of the CHL classes I will also offer beginner handgun classes on up to more advanced classes. Tactical training, trouble shooting, shooting while moving, advanced concealed carry methods and more. In the future I also plan on starting Rifle and Shotgun classes.

If there is any question just let me know, whether it is about scheduling a special class or training.
I have been looking forward to being an instructor for many years now so if I can help you in any way please ask.

Future Plans

Sometime it the future (hopefully in the near future) I would like to start my own business. Specializing in tactical shooting, home defense, concealed carry, long range shooting and anything else having to do with that subject. I am not real sure where to start. I what to be NRA certified to teach all of the above plus some. I also am trying to get licensed by the state of Texas to teach the concealed carry course. They only teach the instructors course once a year. That is in June so I have some time to get some of my NRA certification out of the way while I am waiting for June to roll around. I am hoping to have a traveling concealed carry course, and a basic handgun course all rolled in to one 2 day course with more courses available. At this time I don't have all the equipment that I want to, but I hope to have most of it by, if not before the time I get my Instructors license. At this time all I have that I can teach with is my 1911 Kimber which is what I will be teaching my handgun courses with. I would like to get a Rem. 870 Express 12 Ga. To teach a home defense course and tactical shooting course along with 3 gun competition . I am also hunting an AR 15 or some variant I don't really care what kind of AR but it is a good platform to start shooting with since the 5.556 round is a good lightweight round. I am also wanting to start a submachine course. (but a good H-K MP 5 runs about 19 thousand dollars right now and an uzi cost about 9 grand) I would also like to by a place to put a tactical range and regular handgun range in. I am also thinking about buying some old house that the floor is still in decent shape on and making a tactical course. Utilizing paint ball guns in close quarter combat with another armed opponent with out getting seriously injured. Well that is all I can think about now, I will try to post more often.

Anyone want to play a game? The only prize is the joy of being right.

Can anyone identify this brand and model of rifle?

Caliber is extra points.

Scope does not count because I dont know what kind it is.

Have fun.

Got to start somewhere

I had to start somewhere so I will start with posting about my Kimber Custom 2. It is a 1911 style .45acp auto loading handgun. It comes standard with rubber grips, match grade barrel, internal extractor, match trigger set to 4.5 lbs. a polished feed ramp and a combat hammer. From the factory it comes with one 7 round mag, A plastic take down tool, manual, and of course the high dollar cable lock.

The Kimber is a very reliable semi automatic handgun. I have about 1500 rounds in mine so far and very few problems so far. The ones I have had have mostly been my fault. In the first 300 or so rounds there were no problems. After that I bought some Wolf ammo(high dollar stuff) and after about 40 round I had my first malfunction. The dirty chamber did not let the casing extract and tried to load the next round. After clearing that I did not have any problems for about another 400 round when I started to use a cheap magazine that I got at a pawn shop just to see if it would feed. It was a cheap 7 rd S/S mag that I had to smooth up the side where it was not properly finished. The mag worked fine for about 75-100 rounds then it locked open with 1 round left in the mag. Since then I have used it many times and never had a problem since then. I also have the 7 rd mag that the Kimber came with another 8 round Kimber and a 8rd chip McCormick Shooting Star mag. The Shooting Star mag is in my opinion is the best.

So far I have used almost any kind of cheap ammo that you can get. They all feed fine if it is clean. Or at least cleanish. The Wolf is a VERY dirty ammo.


As far as accuracy it can shoot MUCH better than I can. It can easy put 5 round in 1.5 in at 25 yds but most of the time I cannot shoot that good. At 50 yd it starts to spread out a lot making it hard to hit a 5 gallon bucket at about 65 yard.


Well I guess that is all for now maybe later I will post about my holster that I like for it.
