I don't blame you for looking. 600 rounds in four days sounds pretty exiting ...
Other than the night courses I don't see value in their handgun offering over what you can get here. If you want to take the four day defensive handgun (night), you have to have the four day defensive handgun class as a pre-req. So there's over $5000 (with ammo and expenses) right there.

I have a friend who is a lifetime member of front site and TDSA. He said hands down he received better and more intense training from TDSA. He only goes to frontsite now for long distance rifle. YMMV
they also don't offer watered down training as a promotional vehicle to spam you to death either.
The people I have spoken with who have trained there didnt see their training as watered down. Spam? Yes they have interesting and aggressive marketing strategies.

Im not only looking at handgun courses, but Im not really sure how you can say you don't see the benefit of their training based on a course description. Round count doesnt really bother me. In fact that tells me that they actually spend time instructing and not lining up on a range and going bang bang bang.
Im not really pro or anti Front Sight, nor was I looking for opinions on Front Sight, but I just couldn't find many other class options like they offer. Beyond just handgun.
Thanks man, shootrite.org is the one I have been trying to remember and couldn't. I think the director was on one of the early Sons of Guns shows a while ago, before the show got to be unwatchable.
Im sure there are many sites that do one thing better than others. Spending your money to go out of state for just handgun would be a waste when there are good options here.
Lots of different ones peak my interest. To be honest Im not quite ready to pull the trigger and buy today, just trying to weigh my options.
The 3gun combat training like gunsite offers sounds interesting.
Carbine and precision rifle trainings would be interesting to me.
The armorers classes and the 30 state CCW like Front Sight offers is something I would be interested in.
Also the team tactics course that Shootrite offers would be a blast and extremely useful for home defense situations.

You live near Tulsa, these seems your best option.
USSA Has good instruction as well a friend of mine teaches for them from time to time as well.
No. You are thinking of the thread about USSA where myself and another asked about what happened to the classes USSA USED to have. I didn't want to muddy that thread with this stuff, as it wasn't my thread in the first place.
Ya, as I stated in the first post and a couple since. I am looking for places that offer some of the other classes than the basic Handgun, Carbine, Shotgun 1,2 and 3 classes. Like what Front Sight, Gunsite, Thunder Ranch and Shootrite offers.
I have no issues with USSA or TDSA, just looking for more options and classes that USSA no longer offers, and TDSA doesn't offer.
