CCW Class in Lafayette recommendations

[nikolai]

I'm looking for recommendations for a CCW class/instructor in the Lafayette area. The LSP site has a list of about 10-15 names, but I'd prefer to choose based on recommendation rather than at random, especially if the instructor would be a member here. I am aware that dawg23 gives classes in Baton Rouge, which I don't really have a problem with. But if there is someone equally as good in my area, it would be preferable. The only person that I know with a CCW is my dad, who got his in New Iberia, which is almost the same distance as BR. I also did a search, and it looks like gunz4me took his at Barney's.

Any additional suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I used Joe Weiss and took my class at Barney's with him.

ETA: A friend of mine took the Barney's class, and he said he learned a lot compared to the class he took in Mississippi when he lived there. I didn't take the Barney's class because I have known Joe for several years and seen him at Barney's on multiple occasions.

Don't tell Dawg I said so - his head is practically hydrocephalic as it is - but I'd suggest making the drive. He doesn't do that for a living, he does it because he is passionate about the subject, and he is well versed and up to speed on just about every apect of this stuff.

But, if you tell him I said so, I'll break your knees.

Would you break your own knees if he read your post?

i took my ccw class at the east baton rouge sheriff pistol range. $65 not bad at all compared to a couple of places i called in br and were around $120....plus they notarize the papers you need for no extra charge..

That is the plus side to the Barney's class too. They will take your fingerprints and notarize your paperwork for you too. My buddy pre-printed all his information off the web and brought it to the class with him, so it was painless for him.

I was going to recommend you contact Pablo Estrada. He's a member here on Bayou Shooter. I don't know if he started classes yet, but I know he knows his stuff. You can PM him at: guate_shooter. He just posted up above this one.

If you don't mind my asking, why are you looking to take a class here in Louisiana if you live in Houston?

 

[Guate_shooter]

I was going to recommend you contact Pablo Escobar. ?

Damm Dave with friends like you I am guaranteed to get KILLED.

Crap! I'm so sorry, Man. I fixed it. Took a lot of pain pills the last few hours; bad migraine. I'm not responsible for my stupidity.
