Pistol 3
Took Pistol 3 with John, and it has done wonders for my self defense skills. I had previously watched the course on the network, but it was no substitute to actually being on the range with the War Poet himself. He had an incredible wealth of knowledge and made sure each student was understanding the concepts. It has a smaller class size than most WPS classes, so it was awesome to get more of an opportunity for individual instruction. I highly recommend this course for anybody who wants to truly become one with their pistol.
