This may not be the best time to go "cheap" and focus on the lowest price.  That could end up being very costly in the future.  Choose wisely, choose the best.  Choose John Finnessy, he will train you far beyond shooting a firearm.  He is more focused on you as a person and layering in principles of life safety coaching.

This is the goal at the end of the day.  You will discover two extremes of training in Maryland.  One that meets the minimum standards to get your through the training as cheap as possible.  AVOID!   The other extreme is the instructor who is "tacticool".  Most folks want to carry with professionalism and learn to be proficient and efficient with the tool and don't desire to be a special forces operator.

Life Safety Coaching

Corporate | Church | Individual
A firearm may not be the appropriate tool for the situation.  As a Maryland's only life safety coach, John's focus is first on getting you away and getting you home.  What other tools do you have in the bag?  In life safety, the first tool is learning how to use your mind and feet to avoid the situation. As you go up the force continuum other tools can be used in a reasonable force defense.  John is a certified instructor with both Sabre and Taser. 
It's far more then just getting a carry permit, it is getting you home!
