| How many people in SD travel for firearms training classes? What is the going rate for a class? |
|
there are a few guys that travel here to put on classes. Last year we had Benny Cooley's fighting pistol. We are working on getting a few guys willing to travel this summer for a carbine course. I think we have three so far. Four would be better. Let me know if you'd like more details. eta -Bennie's class was three days and $350, Around 600 rounds . |

John Farnam has been to South Dakota several times. Degrata Tactical usually hosts the class, Degrata. Farnam will be in Pierre for Advanced Defensive Handgun in April. I attended this course in Sioux Falls about 3 years ago and it was an outstanding course. Price was $495 and round count was about 1000 rounds for two days. As for travel, there are a few training companies within a few states of South Dakota. In the cities, there is The Defensive Edge. This is where Meltdown, Dissident and I are hopefully going to later in the year for a carbine course. Prices are listed on the website. I don't know any dates yet, but I know Dissident and I talked about later in summer, possibly in the fall. Jon |
| As a semi unemployed cop and firearms instructor, I was really looking to see how many people are really intrested in training, and what they would be willing to pay for it over all. I am bouncing around accouple ideas right now and depending on what kind of responses I see will depend on what I do with my idea. colt |
