Edmund Olumekor (MD)
I do have to thank you sincerely, for your great training, guidance and instructions that I experienced. From the first moment that I contacted you, it is very safe to state, that you do have a unique ability to make the trainee, very comfortable, as you share your valuable knowledge. My search for an HGP trainer was eventful, until I contacted you, and Ready To Defend. In its entirety, there was never a moment when you did not have the time and patience to impact your knowledge regarding the rules, laws, and required safety that benefits the student. Your command and professionalism of the entire process was very outstanding indeed, and noteworthy. Yours is certainly a cut above and does deserve emulation in the community. I will not hesitate to recommend yourself, and Ready To Defend to anyone who might need related firearm skills training, and services. Thanks again for all the benefits which I did acquire.
Milton Nicholas (MD)
I would like to highly recommend Jeff McCoy if anyone is interested in a Conceal and Carry permit in the DMV area. I just took his training and could not be more pleased. He works diligently with you from start to finish. He continues to make himself available even after the course. If you are considering possessing a gun in the DMV and possibly some other states give him a call or email him.
