"My son and I took the basic pistol course and attended practice at the range. I now feel confident and comfortable handling a firearm. CJ and his wife were very patient and explained all aspects of handling a firearm correctly and safely. My son said this was the best day of his life. I highly recommend CJ's world for all of your firearm and defense training needs." — Dina Robinson
