"Sheriff Carmichael is awesome. Thank you so much for your services provided today"

"Irwin Carmichael and his team are amazing! I took their women's self-defense class and learned a ton. It is also open to teens, so it's a great thing to take your daughter or niece to. Their concealed carry class is educational and informative and open to all skill levels. Check out their website. They have lots to offer! Thank you, guys, and I'll be back for another class in the future!"

"I came here for my Conceal and Carry Class with Sheriff Irwin Carmichael. This man has my up most respect. He stood up and taught the class for 8 hours with solid information, I really was oblivious to how much crime is actually committed. Everyone working that day was super cool. The best part is the include lunch, a firearm( to qualify) ammo, eye and hearing protection and candy. Also, during breaks we were encouraged to practice using the laser firearm and rifle, very cool. The Sr. Range master( I can not remember his name srry sir) was very helpful during my qualifying and helped increase my accuracy with a few pointed tips about my finger placement. Steve was very helpful and they have a pretty cool pro shop where you can purchase a bunch of cool stuff. I bought 4 pepper sprays( 2 for $15) and a defensive flashlight with built in taser. Everyone was treated fairly and everyone was respected. Didn't feel out of place one time and even made some new range buddies to hit the range with. Overall AAA experience/ 5 star rating."

"My wife and I recently attended the conceal carry class here. Very complete and very thorough class. They took care of everything we needed for the course. Mr. Carmichael and Mr. Presley are very professional and a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend this location for anyone about to go for CCW in N.C. High value for money spent, and facilities lacking in nothing. Treat you like family. Can't say enough good things."

"My kids started 4 years ago and they have gained great skills and confidence. Mr. Hartsell is very knowledgeable and have a great ability to bring out the best in children of all levels and abilities. The atmosphere is very family orient, the classes are open to adults as well, wich I personally enjoy very much. I'm very grateful that we found this place."
