Finally, I had been waiting for this for a long time. I couldnt believe how easy the class was though. I did get a lot out of the classroom work though. The written test was a joke. Open book and you could get help from others in the class.

Then, the instructor went over all the answers with us and you could change them if you wanted. He didnt care how many you got wrong as long as you knew the right ones before you left.
The range time was a piece of cake too. 24 rounds at 15 ft and 24 at 21 ft. No fast shooting or shooting with either hands like some classes.
He would give pointers to those who needed it, but never said a word to me. I was one of the best shots in the class. One guy was so bad, he had to stay late and shoot some more with the instructor. He was shooting a 38, and at 15 ft, he couldnt hit the target at all, not once!

Like I said, easy class, but Im glad I did it and its over.
