Blackhawk Tactical Firearm Training

This is hands down the best and most enjoyable class I’ve ever participated in. From my years of armed security training I feel that I learned more in two days than in 80 hours of armed training. Shell and Adam are hands down THE BEST instructors you’ll ever encounter. They are knowledgeable, a lot of fun and they’re teaching strategy will not bore you. I’m looking forward to attend more classes that they offer in the near future.

I signed up for this class based on the referral from a prior student. He had nothing but good things to say about this class, but I was still expecting to be bored to tears for most of it. Boy was I wrong. Adam Valentine is an awesome instructor and kept the class very interesting by keeping it real, speaking in layman’s terms and giving plenty of real life examples and stories. He covered everything the state requires, and much more. He works with you individually if you need it and tells it like it is, without sugarcoating anything. His staff, Michelle, Dan, etc, are also very helpful and just great people both in the classroom and at the range. I can’t even believe the class was 16-​hours. I could have sat in there much longer and took in more of what he had to teach. Adam’s teaching made it go by really fast, and for $ 150? Great deal. I can’t wait to sign up for the intermediate course. If you are wanting your CCW, look no further than Blackhawk Tactical. You will NOT regret it whatsoever.

If you’re thinking about signing up for a class I might save you lots of time. I researched for a month, over 4 dozen places. Blackhawk Tactical is by far the place that offers the most advanced training with lots of ‘extras’ that go far beyond what’s required. You will leave with a 16 hour certificate knowing you learned more than anywhere else. You will learn how to handle yourself, defend yourself, and understand your surroundings. They are that good and knowing what I do now I would have driven 2 or 3 hours from home just to take this course instead of one in my own neighborhood (and there’s a bunch nearby me). I can’t recommend them enough, go here. You will be trained far beyond what’s needed, even if you’ve never held a gun in your life.

Truly an exceptional class! Adam and Michelle were extremely informative, accommodating (to those who were in need), and professional. The hands-​on approach flows nicely, even with a large class, such as the one I attended. Adam’s patience far exceeded what I would have had with such a large group, he and Michelle handled things like pros. If you don’t want to be one of those people that got their CCW permit revoked due to half-​ass classes and illegal fast track programs, get into this class asap!

I must say Adam and Michelle are phenomenal I thought I knew alot about guns and safety but I learned so much thank you guys I look forward to attending the basic gun training for my daughter

AWESOME STAFF (Adam & Michelle)…Adam is hilarious, kept the 2 days class interesting with his life experiences. But he is also quite knowledgeable about firearm concealment and the correct ways to use a firearm. Michellle is very proficient in processing the administrative things to keep the class moving along. I would definitely and highly recommend this course to anyone looking to obtain his/​her concealed weapon license… AAA+

People hear the word «class» and think, «BORING.» Not here! The instructors are extremely kind, informative, and help you with ANY questions you may have. They dramatize real-​world situations to prepare you for the grim possibility (of course in hopes you are never faced with it). Highly recommended class!!!
