Customer Reviews
Dave is a great instructor and highly recommended!

Spent the afternoon in Jerome with the owner of SAFE Firearms Training, Dave Billingsley. Enjoyed a very understandable, professionally presented, and THOROUGH course in firearms handling and concealed carry regulations. If you are considering firearms training or a course in concealed weapons carry, I strongly encourage you to contact Dave. As a former law enforcement officer, I can guarantee, you won't find a more exemplary instructor.

My wife and I would like to thank you for your excellent personal instruction. We had never shot a semi automatic pistol before and after one hour of instruction were able to shoot this Glock pistol with accuracy. Your emphasis on each of the shooting fundamentals was taught with patience and gun safety was consistently stressed through the entire lesson. Your instruction and focus has motivated us to pursue pistol shooting not only as a way to protect ourselves, but also as a lifetime hobby.

Awesome instructor, knows about proper gun handling as well as the laws and the consequences if not used correctly. He takes extra care in his research and makes sure the students understand.

My wife and I have been talking about taking a CCW course for the state of AZ for about a year now. Thanks to the good people Tanner and Natalie Homes of Pawn Palace in Cottonwood, AZ, they had some business cards on their counter of recommended CCW instructors in the area. We chose Dave Billingsley of SAFE Firearms for a private CCW course and were thoroughly pleased with Dave's exemplary instruction both in the classroom and field. We would recommend Dave to anyone considering a CCW class! We also would like to thank Dave for his excellent personal instruction. Dave definitely has a gift for teaching basic firearm skills that translates to positive results for his students!

I had the pleasure of taking Dave's CCW class. The class is very informative and laid out in a very meaningful way. There is no BS. Very professional and gets you to where you need to be without wasting any of my valuable time. I really liked Dave's teaching style. It fit with the way I learn perfectly. I encourage anyone interested in their AZ CCW to sign up with Dave at SAFE Firearms Training.

I have taken several CCW type courses from many different states. I found your course to be the most informative and organized of all. Don't change a thing. I would easily recommend this course to anyone interested.

Your CCW class was very informative and entertaining as well. I learned about the law, what to do in different situations, and many new ways to carry my pistol and access it quickly. Although I was nervous, the qualification was not as difficult as I thought it would be- with your calming advice and instruction I was able to do it! Thank you.

Just wanted you to know how much I enjoyed your class. I am a retired teacher, and I appreciate your patience and teaching style greatly. I hope to take another class with you very soon.

Thanks for the training guys! Just wanted you to know how much I liked your CCW class. Some of the legal jargon was hard for me to understand until I took this class. The videos were great and the time went by very quickly. I would easily recommend anyone to take their concealed weapons course from SAFE Firearms Training!

Keeping students engaged for 6 hours is not an easy task for anyone. I will definitely tell my friends about your training. Good class!

I was in Law Enforcement for many years in LA. This class dispelled a few myths I had about Arizona laws that differ from California. So glad we moved here. My wife and I greatly appreciate your training style. This AZ CCW class was a good choice! Thanks Dave.

Thanks for taking the time to help me shoot with more control and confidence. I feel much better now knowing how my pistol functions and what fundamentals are necessary to place my shots accurately. I enjoyed your teaching style and energy.
