    Default Carbine Training Courses

    I know there is the course set up for August '07 in Pelham...but are there any other courses that NESers know about in the area or is this the "one" to go to.

    Thanks

    Default Trident Concepts Carbine Class

    This is the one to go to. Great facilities and Dynamic Instructor. You will get your $$$ worth. Jeff Gonzales is a great instructor and you will see me in the class. Already have my ammo and just looking for a new sight set up.

    Pat Rogers is doing his 3 day class as well.

    I certainly have nothing bad to say about Jeff Gonzales (he has a great reputation and other trainers, including Pat Rogers, have said so as well) but I can personally recommend Pat's class, having been to it myself.

    You will benefit greatly from either course.

    Since I already took a course with Jeff, I want to expand my horizons and most likely will be taking Pat's class.
    Jeff is a good instructor, however, for me, there seems to be too much emphasis on shooting. Given my beginner level, I don't find this as instructive as some other classes.
    **Personally** I found that 1500 rounds / 3 days seems to be the best balance between material retention and applied practice. I think Jeff usually goes over 1500 rounds in two days.

    will be doing a tactical rifle class June 23/24 in at the Blue Trails Range in Wallingford CT.

    Being CT, you need to be careful that you don't run afoul of their "Evil Looking Gun" laws.

    Is an M1 carbine non-evil enough?
    "When I see how few who talked so largely of death and honour are around me, and that those who are here are those whom it was least expected, I am lost in wonder and surprise. Your noisy Sons of Liberty are, I find, the very quietest in the field. An engagement or even the expectation of one gives a wonderful insight into character."
    - Colonel Joseph Reed, aide to General George Washington, 1776

    I was advised that the EAG (Pat Rogers) course did not materialize and was not going to happen. Has this changed?

    The Pat Rogers class is still in limbo for dates that work per Ryan Gallien up in NH.
