Have you taken any training from these. I am sure you have but which ones?

The only big place I have gone to is http://www.frontsight.com/
It was good training and is super safe for the new shooter.

Actually, no. I have done a lot of training in the days when I was in the infantry. I have done a lot of competition. But I have not gone to any of these places. These were places that were collated by a guy I know who is in the business. They are not meant to be complete but a starter list. Anyone who has had either good experience with any of these, or found others that are good, ought to put them in here. Same goes for the lists of holster makers that I put up, and the other stuff. There are lots of great places to train, so local, some more nationally known. My view tends to be that ANY training that you do you ought to evaluate against your own experience and decide whether it helps or not. So I have done local FOF training with a local guy that ended up being good - because the couple guys I did it with MADE it a good experience, with good interaction and good questions.
