CHL Class review - KR Training

I recently took my CHL class with KR Training/Schaefer Training Academy. Tom Schaefer was the instructor. Simply put: it was fantastic. Tom is a great guy, a 24-year retired veteran w/APD. He is very knowledgeable on Texas laws. and made the class a lot of fun.

I highly recommend this training.

I'll 2nd that (pun intended). I took my CHL class a couple of years ago with Tom at his property and private range in Caldwell County (near enough to Austin). He is a great guy, thorough, keeps it interesting. When I was there, the weather was nice so we spent part of the afternoon doing classroom at the picnic table outside near his range.

All inclusive, well done.

Thanks for the review. I need to get my renewal class.

I renewed my CHL with Tom Schaefer a couple of years ago. Good class, good instructor, BUT - I had to have my 'prints redone at DPS HQ. (That's the one advantage to living in the Austin area - you can hand-carry your packet in and have them look it over in case something - such as my 'prints - isn't OK.)

Yeah, I took my class from Tom a couple of weeks ago, and it was a great experience. I second all the compliments above. Since I'm only a week out on submission, I'll have to see about the prints... that's a concern of mine as well. Looking at my copies, I'm a bit concerned about the right thumb on both my DPS and FBI copies. The print is clearly there, but a little bit of darkening towards the top of the right thumb that I'm concerned about. Hopefully it's OK. I gave DPS a call, but they say it takes 2-3 weeks from receipt for it to show up in their system, so no status yet.
