If it's not the best class you've ever taken then you won't pay us a dime. That's always our guarantee. You will be satisfied or you don't have to worry about the tuition.

Hope you can make it.

I ran out to the range this evening to catch the last hour or so of the first day of the class. Looks like they had a close to full class, and there was a lot of brass on the ground.
I was impressed with the class' ability level after 9 hours of beating their gear and (to a lesser extent) their bodies up.

Billy is an absolute professional behind a carbine. I love seeing him put his thoughts to speech.

Almost wished I brought my AR.

mike, you should have said something.... because I had an extra in the car.

it was a awesome class... I find it funny that I has previously "qulified" with an AR-15 yet I barely knew how to anything else other than shoot it...

Know I know how to run one.... I can't thank Billy and Marshall enough for what they have done for my career.

I don't think we were full, but probably close. Day 2 was awesome. I loved the drills incorporating movement, shooting position transitions, etc. The last one was especially fun. It's easy to drill center mass at 50 yds. under range conditions, but when your heart rate is 175 the fundamentals of marksmanship become twice as important.

When you got a big scary looking dude like Billy yelling at you, you will screw up. Unless you have developed the subconscious responses to emergency reloads, malfunction clearance, etc. through extensive training, stress is going to win. It was tremendously eye opening for me. I have a A LOT of practice to do before Urban Rifle II.

Likewise!

My shorty franken-AR ran like a top both days without cleaning. I used a variety of magazines...Lancer, GI, PMags, TD Arc Mag, C-Products stainless, C-Products aluminum, & Fusil. I only had problems with the Arc Mag being picky about how it needed to be loaded.

The notion that people need a $2,000 Noveske or Colt 6920 is ridiculous. Reasonably priced commercial grade guns (DPMS, RRA, Bushmaster, etc.) will run and run and run if you do it right.

I'd have more faith in a DPMS that had proven itself in a weekend of hard use than a Colt with 100 rounds through it. Get out there, geardos.

I only have one problem with TDSA...I can't decide which class to take next! Marshall and his crew are tops.
