[QUOTE="Rod Snell, post: 2845074, member: 796"] Here's the problem I perceive, and the primary reason I am NO LONGER in the business: It is just too dangerous to allow anyone who shows up with an online certificate to walk onto the range and do the prescribed firing. PEOPLE SHOW UP TO DO THE CARRY CLASS WHO HAVE NEVER FIRED THE GUN THEY BRING, AND SOMETIMES NEVER FIRED AT ALL. When I did classes, we passed around the blue guns and really drove home the safety, watching to see who was dangerous with the blue gun. Then they got lots of attention and help long before we went to the range and did dry and live fire. I got a chance to assess each individual and correct problems where possible. Nobody ever failed one of my classes due to the written test, but some did due to gun handling violations. So if I were still in the business, you could do the written test online if you wanted, but from me you would get the WHOLE COURSE at the SAME PRICE as everyone else, unless you could show me another course certificate or competitors card. My insurance costs the same either way, and I REALLY don't like being swept, even by an empty gun. [/QUOTE]
