We took the CWP (Concealed Weapon Permit) class at Tactic MT. Our instructor was friendly, knowledgeable, and engaging. Willing to go the extra mile to teach the ins and outs of an important subject. Our class ended up staying 45 minutes late after its official conclusion, continuing the discussion on a wide range of subjects related to concealed carry and firearms.

The first part of the class established a basic understanding of handguns and safe operation as required by law. Next was an introduction into the Montana laws governing the use of deadly force. Scenarios were introduced showing a wide range of situations and how concealed carry was used.

As was repeatedly stressed in the class, I believe one of the best takeaways from the course was the importance of situational awareness. Removing yourself or never being in a dangerous situation is always the best defense. However, it is not always possible. This class gave an excellent understanding of the law and legal ramification of using a weapon in self-defense.

We recommend this class if you want to conceal carry or want the benefits of having a permit (or both). The cost is $82.00 for a two and a half hour class from a knowledgeable instructor and facility.
