Joe Chrono* is the Galaxy's fastest shooter, so I think he'd be a better instructor. Do you guys have better credentials? Huh? Do you? Many people, like our friend Joe Chrono, seek to become firearms instructors for weekend money. In asserting their credentials to teach, they will tell you how many competitions they have won. We certainly commend and congratulate them for those achievements. Tell you what, though.  Have ol' Joe show you how he would perform in the real world by pulling out a  concealed firearm (something you would realistically carry, not a tricked out competition gun) from a concealment device (not from a slicked-up external holster) and hit a moving, human sized target from a realistic distance, with extreme psychological pressure applied. Show us such a person and we will applaud him (or her.) Few people can do it, because everyone is subject to the debilitating effects of stress, even your hero, Joe Chrono. This explains why the average "hit rate" for police officers in a street shooting is only 12 percent. For every 100 shots they fire, they only hit the target (bad guy) 12 times!! This is not to be construed as criticism of cops, but rather, to illustrate that even with their training, they, too, are subject to stress-induced failure.  Marksmanship and motor skills go down the tubes. Read this story as an example: Four cops emptied their handguns at a dangerous subject and only one bullet managed to wing the guy in the arm. Would Joe Chrono do better?  Would you, after taking Joe Chrono's class?  He earned those speed shooting trophies by firing about 50,000 rounds per year. Will you follow his teaching AND his practice regimen? Can you even afford to buy that much ammo? Didn't think so. So why would his teaching be more valuable?  We believe that competition shooting has value, but there's MUCH more to CCW training than being able to compete in an artificially  structured setting. As an analogy, have you ever noticed that the guys who win the "longest drive" contests in golf - the guys who can whack a golf ball 400+ yards - are nowhere to be seen in the big PGA tournaments ? Why? Because, with few exceptions,  they are "one trick ponies." All they can do is drive. OK. Enough with the analogies. Well-rounded training is what you want, and that's what we offer. * Chrono is short for chronograph, a device commonly used to measure the speed of a bullets.
