        Frontsite is not going broke, they earn more from selling water rights than they do from training from what I have heard.

        I am a member, by the way as given by another FS member. Need to get out there for a session from my friends point of view they like it a lot.

          I have the most respect for Gunsight. I know several Gunsight elitist that train their religiously. They attend a class every other year due to cost.

          With Front Sight I can attend Front Sight a couple times or more a year and train in multiple weapons systems. So although I can even buy that his Gunsight training is superior, I have trained in three weapons systems with multiple classes in the same time they take one class. Hmmm . . .

            What about the half dozen guys I personally know who spent 40 or 50 thousand American Dollars for some Silvero Comando Expert Lifetime Certificate?

            No kool aid for me, Thank You.

              The new members claim that the people who were scammed years ago for 10s of thousands of dollars are pleased to see others get the same training for $100. And they are proud as peacocks to support a business who has lied to them for years. Resort coming soon.

                I like front sight, but i was definitely not scammed. I spent less than $250 for the full hot order, whatever it was called at the time.
                They also gave me double the money spent in "credits" and i was abke tonuse those credits to buy a book and for shooting the machine guns at lunch, which was like $30 a magazine. They had a tommygun, M16, Uzi, maybe mp5 and maybe other stuff.
                I shot the uzi and m16 and i still have like $400 in credit to use.
                I loved it, got to shoot from holster for 4 days, they offered a multi-state ccl class on the 5th day but i did not participate in that.
                Felt very safe personally and will go back again.

                    Best part of my initial $1200 cost is now my kids, wife, friends all get to train for $50 per year plus ammo, travel, food and lodging. Thank you Iggy.

                      I'm talking about the people who actually paid 30, 40, 50 thousand dollars and more, years ago, with the promise of it becoming a full shooters resort and home sites. If this were any other business and a friend of yours told you about their past business practices you'd be thumping your chest and saying you'd never do business with an outfit like them. The price to ignore your usual high principles: cheap memberships at Front Site.

                        Thank You for the offer, Divehobo.
                        Your heart is in the right place.
                        But my own hypocrisy only goes so far.
                        Hope you have fun and enjoy shooting.

                          I dont know anybody that happened to nor did I know it had ever happened.
                          I got my membership through front sight, not a transfer from another person and it was $250 for commander of front sight level or some stupid name like that.
                          How am i supposed to know your friends got scammerd out of $30k?
                          Has nothing to do with morals or values. I saw a deal that worked for me and i bought it. Your friends did the same and are unhappy. That is on them.

                            Not uncommon for those taken advantage of not to say anything because they're embarrassed.
                            Just because you don't know doesn't mean it didn't happen.
                            Doing business with anyone has everything to do with morals and values.
                            Some people choose to ignore this philosophy and some people try to abide.
                            Hope all goes well for you.

                              It has. Thank you.
                              A lot of people pay more than i did for the same truck i have. Should i feel bad for them too?
                              I never said it didnt happen, just that i had never heard about it before i purchased my deal.
                              As i said, i saw a deal that made sense to me and i bought it.
                              Stop trolling

                                I've seen plenty of newer members who got the cheap deals claim that the members who paid the big bucks years ago (the new members that are aware of how previous members were scammed) are just happy to see other people get a good deal to justify supporting FS.. Believe that? When you sell someone something with promises of a full resort, homes sites, etc. and tell them that the prices will only be higher later, then eventually sell them for very little, that is a scam. This is one way that scammers operate.

                                You say you didn't know. Would you have supported these scammers if you did know?
