A friend of mine recently had a bad experience at her local CCW class. She was participating in a class at the local gun and licensing shop, and I was surprised to hear her say she didn't enjoy it very much. Apparently the instructor was only interested in teaching them just enough to get their permit and nothing else.
She continued to tell me that she didn't feel good having the permit, because she felt like there was so much more that she should know about having a concealed firearm. And she was positive that there were any Ohio CCW classes that would focus on the state laws and regulations.
I said I was surprised, but I'll readily admit that this was not the first time I had heard a complaint of this variety. Instead, I was surprised that the class wasn't in the dark backroom of a questionable store, but was a class at an outstanding shop that I had visited to purchase ammunition and occasionally use the range.
That being said, the line between a great Ohio CCW class and a bad one can be foggy and difficult to pinpoint. There are however, some things to look at.
Is the instructor knowledgeable? The way to judge their knowledge is to look at how much experience they actually have. If they have been handling firearms for many years and have a lot of experience teaching in a classroom setting, you will be much more likely to have a good experience.
Have other people said good things about the class and the instructor? Talk to the people around you. See if anyone has enjoyed the class in the past and felt that it was worthwhile. A recommendation from your friends should go a long go a long way toward helping you find the right classes.
Has the class or shop kept its licenses fully up-to-date? Always work with the programs that consistently keep up with all the state requirements for Ohio CCW classes. Make sure they are fully versed in the local laws and regulations.
Finally, take the time to evaluate whether or not your CCW classes are consistently providing your value for your money. If you don't feel like it is fulfilling your expectations, let them know by withdrawing from the class and asking for a refund. Don't waste time in classes that won't help you in the long run. - 16887
