"Phil is a great and thorough instructor. He has a positive energy and makes sure you know everything you need to know so that you’re comfortable and prepared to carry/conceal carry".
~Crystal Bradley
"I had an absolutely great experience with Phil in the CCW and NRA Basic Pistol course. Phil is an excellent teacher in class and awesome instructor at the range. I gained a ton of knowledge and confidence in the classes. His skills and expertise are first class for sure. I'm so happy I took these courses. Thank you so much Phil!!"

"This was such a great informative class!! Phil did an excellent job at educating the class! He is super friendly and made the class very entertaining while also very informative!! You can tell that he cares deeply about what he does and loves his job! I HIGHLY recommend him!!!"
~John Kancherla
"Phenomenal experience! Phil Snyder is a retired police officer and is able to provide the “law enforcement mind” aspect to the carry class which is extremely beneficial! It makes sense to take a carry class from a person with his experience. I’ve heard that other carry classes can be a bore- but not this one! Phil takes the time to role play, [and] gives real life examples."
~Amanda Bock
"My wife and I very much enjoyed the class. It was very informative as to governing law. Hearing on point examples pulled from Phil's personal law enforcement experience reinforced what we were learning. We highly recommend it for anyone interested in obtaining a Utah Concealed Carry permit.

My daughter and I both took the pistol class as well. It was awesome!! From someone who has never handled a firearm I appreciated all the hands-on stuff taught in this class. The instructor is amazing both in the classroom and at the range. We got some good shots to pass our test. I would highly recommend this class!!

Very informative and a great instructor. All of our classes have been smaller which meant more one on one interaction. If you are interested in getting your concealed carry permit this is where you want to start. Once you finish this I highly recommend signing up for one of the NRA Firearms Classes.
