mtenenhaus, what dates will you be out?
If you're staying in Vegas I'd go to Walmart or even Bass Pro if necessary.

thinking about the next month or so, haven't scheduled yet....walmart would be perfect, they're usually open late.

So, have been receiving lots of invites from Dr. P on unlimited private lessons for $2K...

I know that this has been asked before, but the answers I have read seem that there is no consensus that it is of good value. Thoughts?

According to the invite, one can get a slot for private training one month in advanced. Is this true? I have read that for some people the waiting list is a few months' out. Are you only limited to scheduling a 1-day training? How about 2-days or more? (considering making good use of the time spent driving to/from Pahrump)

For the content, I would guess that it covers the whole gamut of courses (or should I say, weapons platform) that are taught at Front Sight.

For some of you that have the "private training" luxury - how many times a year do you go?

Hhhmmm... Basically, I am still on the wall on this one. Unlimited private training sounds good - that said, Pahrump is just too far a drive.

Thoughts anyone?

PS: I guess I missed the "upgrade" opportunity for just $1K.

Wife and I do 2 private classes a year average. We have one next month. The quality depends on who your instructor is.

You can book 6 months in advance.

We like it.

What happens if your late on the first day? thinking about flying in for a flight that lands in Vegas at 7. still would have to run to get the rental car and then head up/ thinking arrival at 9?

others can chime in, but i'd think that 9am arrival is too late for day #1. you'd still park, most probably far from the registration. you'd need to gear up, then head up to get registered and safety inspected, etc. you'd probably be actually late for at least 90-mins.

hence, i came in the afternoon/night before...

Correct, arriving at 9 am on Day one of your course would not go over well.
Instructors are done with registration and weapons inspection by 8 o'clock and you'll have missed the introduction in the classroom and not have all your paperwork filled out and signed.

If you can't be on time - be early - as they say!!!

If it's a private class, then no problem. Just let registration know of your start time.

I know we are not weatherman but has anyone been out to FS in the middle of Sept? Very warm? Just curious - the group may go out then.

I'm curious if anyone else here remembers being told by instructors that in preparation for the changes in prerequisites coming with the marksmanship class that they were "grandfathering in" anyone who got a DG in Practical Rifle before Jan 1st of 2019?

A friend, and myself were told this by multiple instructors in 4 separate classes in 2018. I tried to register for a precision rifle class on Monday and was told by the office that "I would have needed to attend Precision Rifle in 2018 for that to be the case". Another friend tried to register under the same pretenses and was told by the office they had never heard of anyone being told that, or anyone thinking that was the case.

If that only applied to courses in 2018 why would they have wasted time telling everyone about it? Has anyone else had luck getting into a Precision rifle course this year with a DG in rifle instead of the new Marksmanship course?
