A very valuable course to take if you are new to the AR-15. The instructor, Joe, was very professional, knowledgeable and informative. He met all the course objectives and I went away with the knowledge and skills necessary to improve my proficiency with the weapon. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in learning about the AR-15. I look forward to further training at Buds.
