Excellent5.0 Based on 499 reviews from review us onDave MDave M ★★★★★ I got a lot of good information from going to this class! The instructor Chris Rudy was very knowledgeable and easy to understand.Stephanie BailesStephanie Bailes ★★★★★ Enrolled at the Barber Rd location for CCW class. Adam was an incredible instructor and very knowledgeable in every aspect of the topic. He came across friendly and approachable. He made the classroom a comfortable learning environment. Once it came to the range time he took the time with each student to ensure appropriate safety, handgun hold, and target hits; that these were the best the student was capable of and would leave with a feeling of being successful. I would absolutely recommend this class to everyone!!!Brian HammondBrian Hammond ★★★★★ Akron CCW Class was outstanding! Adam F. was the instructor and did a great job covering the material. He kept it interesting so time would keep moving. He helped were needed while on the range and definitely knows his stuff. Looking forward to returning. Just need a few more AF flags! LOLI highly recommen this location and Range 42!!Justin NewtonJustin Newton ★★★★★ Joshua PowellJoshua Powell ★★★★★ Adam was a great instructor. Very informative, patient, and made everyone feel comfortable and welcomed during the ccw course and while doing the live fire portion.

Good powerpoints. 1000% recommend even after constitutional carry.Ken O'ConnorKen O'Connor ★★★★★ Excellent training experience. Site was comfortable, well kept and well equipped. Our Instructor (Adam) was very knowledgeable and answered questions clearly. He was also helpful (and patient) with the firing range portion of training. Keep up the great work!Kyle EmighKyle Emigh ★★★★★ I have always felt comfortable at Range 42 and Buzz Johnson was an amazing instructor for our CCW class.Ck ACk A ★★★★★ The CCL class was very informative. Buzz is a great instructor and kept the class moving right along. The time flew by. He spent individual time with each of us at the gun range. I highly recommend taking his class.ØD P-RØD P-R ★★★★★ I attended one of Workman Firearms' CCW/CHL courses. Our instructor, Nick Quella, was concise, informative, and engaging. He easily could've just boringly listed off all of the rules, protocols, and training materials, but he went above and beyond in presentation. He ensured that everyone in the class comprehended the material- especially in regards to safety-and provided ample opportunity for audience interaction and questions to be answered, which he did promptly and without ambiguity. The course wasn't just educational, but actually entertaining, which defintiely aids to the rentention of the vital information being provided. Would absolutely recommend.Sonny ReeseSonny Reese ★★★★★ Great class with a great instructor!Dezmond RozekDezmond Rozek ★★★★★ Chris was a great teacher for the class and made everything fun to learn.

When going into the range, Steve was patient and helped walk through exactly what should be done when shooting. First time shooting and everyone that assisted in the process was helpful.Markis MooreMarkis Moore ★★★★★ Great range and absolutely great classes!Crystal MooreCrystal Moore ★★★★★ The training experience was great, very educational!Tim MillerTim Miller ★★★★★ My Wife and I took the CCW class , we were both very impressed with the way Adam conducted the class and kept everyone's attention.

We enjoyed our time in class and look forward to future classes .Tim and Patti MillerJerry CowleyJerry Cowley ★★★★★ Took the CCW licensure class.

Highly recommend taking class here .Chrissy BernazzoliChrissy Bernazzoli ★★★★★ Buzz is a WONDERFUL instructor. He was incredibly animated which kept my interest the entire time. There is so much you can learn from his experience and knowledge. All of the other employees were very knowledgeable. Answering any questions with real life experiences and education. I grew up around firearms, and have shot before, yet I learned so much today about laws, handling, types, etc.

HIGHLY recommend their CCW class regardless of your background! There’s always something to learn or refresh.

Ian JosephIan Joseph ★★★★★ Fantastic instructors, knowledgeable, friendly. Cannot recommend highly enough!Tony YuTony Yu ★★★★★ Great CHL and Trauma Medical classes. The instructors were qualified and experienced. Better yet... they made learning the material fun. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge!Alexander R. WalkerAlexander R. Walker ★★★★★ Adam was a amazing instructor. He is safe, detailed and articulate. Definitely going to take more advanced courses at workman. Amazing staff. Felt comfortable with the one on one instructors for my CHL class. Over all to be honest best range experience I have ever had. Felt comfortable. I would highly recommend there CHL classes to anyone who wants to get one. Awesome prices for there range and classes. Felt as is I could trust any of them with my life. They care about your safety and theirs. In my experience this is one of the safest and polite ranges I have been to.Jason LaPonzaJason LaPonza ★★★★★ Jason was an amazing instructor. I would recommend any of there classes. I myself attended the ccw class with Jason and the knowledge I walked out with was awesome. I was so not looking forward to sitting in class 6 hrs but because the way Jason taught it felt like I was there for an hour. I was actually bummed when it was over, I wanted more lol! I also want to give a shot out to the range instructors. They do an amazing job! Thanks Jason & team!Natalie TegovskiNatalie Tegovski ★★★★★ Buzz was very detailed and thorough during the teaching session. He (and everyone there) were extremely respectful and patient with the students. My trainer in the range was Cheryl, she made me feel SO comfortable and especially confident since she knew it was my first time. Definitely recommend anyone who is interested in taking a CCW class to take it though here!Mark HershbergerMark Hershberger ★★★★★ Went today with my son to the Norton location for our CCW class. The instructor BUZZ was great! Class was informative And well done. The range coach also really put the right instructions where we needed! Thank you!Kelly NicholsonKelly Nicholson ★★★★★ Buzz my instructor was phenomenal, took the time to go over the material and help the class get full information about gun safety/handling. My shooting instructor Harry, made me comfortable to shoot. By far the best line coach I’ve experienced!!!! Will come back for Harry and Harry only (maybe the desk girls too) THANK YOU BUZZ AND HARRYShannon CampbellShannon Campbell ★★★★★ Fantastic CCW class.

Our instructor, Tom, was excellent. It's a long class with a ton of information, but Tom kept the class engaged and focused.

My range coach, Dan, was also excellent. He gave me great instruction and feedback during my shooting section.

I will be signing up for other classes here after the great experience of this one.

Note for the CCW class: There is only a 30 minute lunch break (2-3) 5-min breaks throughout so make sure to pack a lunch because there isn't much readily available, and have a drink handy in the classroom 🙂
Stephanie ChiarielloStephanie Chiariello ★★★★★ The one-day CCW class was not only comprehensive, informative, and professional, our instructor Buzz Johnson was funny and engaging without ever losing his laser focus on safety first. The emphasis on safety follows from the classroom to the range time, where you get a 1:1 line instructor to coach you on stance, grip, etc. One other noteworthy aspect—our instructor addressed the unique challenges for concealed body carrying for women and offered some tips on finding resources. I would recommend this course not only to secure a CCW license but for anyone with a firearm who wants to know how to properly handle it.Taz FanTaz Fan ★★★★★ Renee and I just went to range 42 and shot off 2 clips and we signed up for the family membership and our CCW instructor Tom Dillion was there. He gave me a some ideas why my majority of my shot went to left. Will try next time. Thanks Tom!!!
I would totally recommend this place and workman firearms for all your training needs

He's a really excellent instructor, personable & informative. The hours just flew by. Highly recommended.Edward J NicholsEdward J Nichols ★★★★★ Jason Soco was our classroom instructor today. He held a very interesting course with a lot of good information.
As a testament to how well he did, I am someone who can doze off 10 minutes into most anyone talking. I am proud to say I was alert and interested the entire class. I also was surprised how quick time passed.
Great job!
Adam was my range instructor and helped me to zero in on the target. Basically he was also a great instructor.
you can't go wrong with these instructors.

The guys are very informative and thorough. I needed a handgun class for dummies and I felt I got it kudos to Adam who was my line coach because I was a nervous wreck and scared shitless. Just recommended them to my parents and I want my girls to take their class also.
