I hear this ALL the time: "𝘑𝘰𝘦, 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘬 𝘐'𝘮 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘊𝘰𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘊𝘢𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘤𝘭𝘢𝘴𝘴 𝘺𝘦𝘵." 𝗠𝘆 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿? — That's exactly why you should take it!

Our class isn't just about carrying a firearm. It's about learning safety, understanding the law, building confidence, and becoming a more responsible gun owner.

Most of our students aren't experts. Many are brand-new shooters.

We start at the beginning, answer every question, and make the experience enjoyable. In fact, most people leave saying they had a lot more fun than they expected.

If you've been thinking about it, stop waiting until you feel 'ready.'

That's what we're here for.

For many students, 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙢𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙨 𝙗𝙞𝙜. Confidence doesn’t show up overnight.

Did you see this proposed Ammo tax? 😑

Just in: New Ammunition tax and new ammunition registration requirement law proposed by Illinois Democrats.

Illinois Democrats are proposing a five cent per round of ammunition and the requirement that each round of ammunition be registered.

The sport of hunting will soon become very expensive in Illinois.

Illinois House Bill 4414 proposes that starting January 1, 2027, all handgun ammunition sold or possessed in Illinois must be serialized and traceable by the Illinois State Police (ISP).

The bill was introduced by Chicago area State Representative Anne Stava-Murray.

The bill will create a centralized registry for transactions, imposes a fee of up to 5 cents per round, and makes possession of non-serialized ammunition a misdemeanor.

Key Aspects of HB4414:

Serialization Requirement: All handgun ammunition manufactured, imported, or sold in Illinois must have unique identifiers on the packaging and the ammunition itself starting Jan. 1, 2027.

Registry and Tracking: The ISP will manage a database of handgun ammunition transactions, recording the buyer's identification and the unique identifier of the ammunition.

Fees: A fee of up to 5 cents per round will be charged to the end-user the money will go to the state of Illinois.

Penalties: Possessing non-serialized handgun ammunition in a public place can result in a Class C misdemeanor.

Exceptions: Exemptions apply to law enforcement, military, and specific authorized individuals

The bill is designed for the ISP to track ammunition transactions and is part of the 104th General Assembly's legislation for 2025-2026.

This is what progress looks like.

When students see their target at the end of 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗰𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻, something clicks. It’s not just about passing. It’s about realizing, “I can actually do this.”

𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗮𝗹𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘂𝗻𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗲. 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗮 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗴𝘂𝗻 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲.

Then they see this.

Proper grip. Proper stance. Clear instruction. Results follow.

You don’t need experience. You need guidance.
