What energy this Instructor (De-Nay) Denis has. He kept....

the Class moving at a fast pace all day.  We were swept up in his Instruction.  I was never bored at all during the day.  Great New CCW 2010 Law Class and Accuracy Session.  I am a retired Marine and I thought I know it all when it came to being accurate with a gun.  Bob's techniques at the end of the class and his instruction improved my skills and abilities in accuracy by at least 20%.  This man knows his stuff.  I appreciated his patience with all of us students and the questions of which there where many during the day.  He answers everyone's questions.  He practices and teaches safety, safety and more safety.  He is the real deal a true Professional at what he does and he genuinely cares about his students passing the AZ DPS CCW permit class.  Bob, thanks for all your advise and training.  I will Bob, go home and develop a plan of action as you recommended in case my family is home invaded by the bad guys.  I will highly recommend you Bob.  Thanks again you're the best!  To bad you where Air Force Tactical Communications in Vietnam the Corp could have used you full time.  Semper Fi

There was a lot of gun safety issues & concerns I....

wasn't aware of.  This Class has enlightened me.  Being new to handgun ownership, there are many scenarios discussed that a person can find themselves in.  Being knowledgeable in the laws will make the situation easier. 

Mr.  Bob Denis & his Staff are very knowledgeable.  His teaching method was easy to understand, especially for a novice.

K. A.

An Outstanding 8.5 hours spent learning....

about AZ CCW Law with practical hands on shooting.  Bob Denis is very Knowledgeable about the law as it applies to CCW & Self Defense with a weapon.  I would take this course again & highly recommend it to others.

Vincent Smalls

Great Class! I've learned....

so much that I will not learn by just reading a book.  The real life examples helped me understand the law & CCW in general.  Bob Denis is one of the best Instructors in the Valley.  I will refer him to my friends who may want to get a CCW Permit.

Louie C.

I'm so thankful to my....

husband, insisting that I had to come to this Class.  It didn't only educate me on how to use a gun but all about the laws behind owning one.

Professor Bob is indeed a very experienced and insightful instructor.  Lots of sense of humor.

Rose C.

I learned a great deal about the responsiblity of...

concealed carry and the situations that justify the use of a weapon.  I also learned many pointers on properly handling and aiming a handgun.

Thanks Bob for a full day course that flew by!

S. Steffan

Great Class and very....

informative.  I recommend anyone considering getting their CCW to take the 8.5 hr. long course.  I like the time you (Bob) took to answer any questions we had and I loved the clarity of the course.  I now know when and if I should use my firearm to defend myself, my loved ones or other innocent bystanders and what to do afterwards.

Jonathan Salmon

I came to Class with little....

to no knowledge of AZ CCW Laws.  I left with a solid understanding of what is required of me to be a responsible & informed gun owner, as well as the laws governing weapon concealment.  Bob Denis is a proven expert as a CCW instructor, as well as a dedicated, interesting instructor.  I recommend him highly!!

G. Hall

What I take away today is confidence in my....

gun control and laws.  I feel like I belong to the gun community as an asset.  I am coming away from class not feeling intimidated .  I enjoyed the open forum and the upbeat disposition of my Instructor (Instructor Bob).  I would recommend this class to all of my friends and family.

C. Jackson

Wow! What an experience! This class should...

be something that every gun owner should participate in.  You learn not only gun safety which is one of the important things when firearms are involved.  To me one of the most important things you get from this coarse is the massive responsibility that having not only a gun requires but having your CCW will require.  I will recommend to all my friends as a "must take" class.  You will learn things that may save not only your life; but you families.

Robert Hudson

Bob taught when/when not to pull...

and/or shoot.  Laws of the State, and how we can be protected against civil & criminal suits.  Also learned and reviewed stances, eye dominance, and hand positioning.  He went over benefits of a CCW Permit as opposed to carrying without.  Stories helped put words into context and make it all understandable. 

Michael Harrington

I believe that I have a....

better, more complete, understanding of my legal responsibilities when carrying a gun whether on my person, in my car, in my house, or out in public settings.
The Class was excellently presented in a focused and easy to grasp mode.
The Class provided me with fundamentals of safe control.  These fundamentals are going to be included in my practice so that I can establish "correct" muscle memory.

Dennis Lynn Mowery

I am much more confident around....

guns now.  The fear has been removed, which was the chief reason for taking this course.

It was very informative and a lot of fun.  The stories and cases that Bob presented made me aware that any of the scenarios could possibly happen to me.  I am fully confident, that if it does happen, that I will take the right course of action in my decision making.
I am very excited to move forward with my training and I plan on taking follow up courses which Bob may offer.
I would recommend this class to anyone interested in using/owning a handgun.

K.S.

What did I take from the Class the....

seriousness of the responsibility when you have a CCW Permit.

Handgun safety "updated" knowledge of types of ammunition.

Having assistance with completing CCW Permit Application so it is correct the first time.

Everett McGinnis

I have more knowledge of firearm laws of...

the State of AZ.  I feel comfortable for carrying with the training from Bob's Class.  As a Marine Veteran, I always want to be prepared for any situation that may be bestowed upon me and protect my family.

Darren P.

Education, education & more education! it was...

much more complex than I thought.

It makes me think more than twice about carrying a gun in public.

J. E.

A lot of information about....

the law to carry.  Instructor had a lot of knowledge and answered all the questions asked.  Will recommend to everyone who owns a weapon.

M. Soliz

Bob is very knowledgeable and patient with...

students.  I learned how to use my own weapon and the information in the booklets are very informative.  Knowing the laws in your State is very help.

Dewayne Anderson

I wasn't excited about....

coming to this class at all - only came because my husband wanted to attend however I actually ended up enjoying myself and I learned quite a few things that I didn't know about the laws and how they have changed recently and how the CCW Permit fits into all of it.  Bob definitely made it fun and interesting, he took time to answer any questions and made sure that you understand the material that he is providing.  A very worthwhile afternoon!

A. W.

There was a great deal of...

valuable information presented I am glad I chose the 8.5 hour class.
Bob was very good, he is very knowledgeable on the information as wel as in presenting the course materials.
It was a fun class that I will be recommending to peers that are thinking about obtaining the CCW Permit.
I am looking forward to taking other courses offered by CCW AZ School.

I fully understand the correct definitions of...

weapon misconduct and the proper scenarios in which drawing a weapon is warranted.  The advantages of obtaining a CCW are clear now.  I also have learned a few special circumstances where deadly force is appropriate and the correct steps in preparation of defense of the home.  I would recommend this class to anyone that is planning on carrying a firearm.

R. Crespo

After geting through the Class I find...

hat it was much more comprehensive than I thought it would be!  Looking forward to the Range time.  Good use of 8.5 hours on a Saturday 100 + miles from home.

Robert Eakman

Good Class, went over...

Laws in a way that made sense.  I was worried that the 8.5 hr Class would seem long, but Bob kept us involved and I couldn't believe how fast the Class went by.

Thanks!

Nick H.

Very informative. Gave Pointers....

on shooting and technique that was not expected.  Bob seems to have a real good back ground base and knowledge of firearms and laws.

E.P.

The Class was worth every penny. I got...

exactly what I was looking for, a comprehensive understanding of gun safety, personal safety, and State laws regarding concealed weapons carry.  Bob's lecture and materials were detailed and easy to understand.  I know the 8.5 hour CCW Class is just the beginning of my training but I can't imagine a better place to start.  Thank you Bob!

Dear Bob, My wife and I took your Feb 26, 2011 course, and

it was a busy day.  This was the date when the 'university' location was unavailable so the entire course was conducted at the store/range.  I wanted to get back with you.  I'm the guy who's test you graded on the trunk of the car in the parking lot (it WAS busy).  We were very excited and impressed with the course with special appreciation for the sincerety, energy, expertise, and heartfelt concern you displayed throughout the day.  That your family is right there with the same dedication you exude is commendable, and stands in stark contrast to the typical blanch institutional (or worse self aggrandizing) approach one has come to expect from todays technoculture.  As I mentioned to you on the range, I learned more in one day than in years of previous exposure to firearms,  including  a military carreer.  Simple yet salient practical information and guidance cannot be over valued, and your understanding of this was very helpful both in terms of salient information in class and emperical experience on the range.  I'm confident both those new to firearms and 'old pros' (duly elected or self enthroned) will benefit immensely from your course.  My wife and I are both fortunate to have chosen your course, and hate to think of what we would have missed otherwise.  I have spoken about our experience with nothing but high regard since, and would highly recommend, no....highly ADVISE anyone contemplating obtaining their CCW to insist upon attendance in YOUR course.  Period.  Please do use this communique as testimonial material if you wish.  Again, thank you for a great course.  Best wishes.  Blessings upon you and yours.  Cordially. David and Theresa H.

I'm really thankful I took this Class...

because even though common sense dictates that gun ownership is a huge responsibility, knowing the laws that were taught in this Class illuminated just how awesomely large that responsibility is.  Additionally, the point was driven home that we must mentally prepare for this responsibility.  That means imaging all the possible scenarios & being prepared to legally handle them.  A lot of people assume AZ's new laws make gun usage a wild-wild west free for all but this Class educates students that there is much more than meets the eye when if comes to constitutional carry.
It was also a great refresher course on stance, grip, breathing, etc. that I know is not offered in most CCW Classes.  I felt much more prepared at the end of Class than I did at the beginning.
Nicole Schwartz

The knowledge of concealed weapons....

laws is huge.  I did a lot of research on the CCW Classes and online this Class was the best I could find, then I took the Class with my wife and two buddies.  Not only does it look the best online, (Den-Nay's) Class is the best in the State.  He is a very great teacher, almost reminds me of Rush Limbaugh. I personally will be taking more Classes with Bob in the future.

Michael MacDonald

Take away....

A lot of information that I did not know before - but the most important thing I learn is to have a plan for the whole family if someone did break in etc. - So everyone would know what to do & practice it every so often.  I feel this was a very important part of the course - how to be better prepared.

P. Carson

My take away was that....

I learned a lot about gun safety and how to be more accurate in a very simple way.
I learned about the laws that are very helpful and some I thought were myth.

"I Love Defensive display"!!

Bob is the coolest ever!  Fabulous Instructor!
Jaimie M.

I learned my rights when carrying...

a Firearm.  I also feel more confident and comfortable handling a Firearm.  I would change nothing about the course.  I thought the material was very easy to follow.
S.M.

I learned how important....

gun safety is.  If you have guns in your home, you must know how to handle & store them safely.  I would highly recommend this course, Bob was a great instructor.
Deborah C.

CCW is an awesome...

responsibility!  Bob is fantastic and it was a pleasure.
Michael F.

My take away...

further knowledge of the rights and privileges that come along with carrying a concealed weapon.  Bob was extremely thorough and made everything easy to understand with real - life situations.  I only wish there had been more range time.

S. Hart

Education about Firearms should be....

obtained first prior to anyone even thinking about owning a firearm.  Bob's Class was so interesting and informative that the 8.5 hrs went by quickly.

Matt I.

Take away....

I feel more confident and will be a better marksman with practice and have a better understanding of the laws.
T.H.

What did you take away form class today?

Better understanding of pertinent laws & rules regarding AZ gun laws.

Kenneth O.

My take away was respect for....

the subtleties of the laws.  The importance of practice (dry fire).  The appreciation of the Instructors who take their time to make us safe.

DN

Loved how you showed...

us about the laws.  And what are action should be when we are in a Death situation.  Thank you.

Jose Gutierrez
