    “Took the MD Wear and Carry/Delaware CCW class. Appreciated the small class and one-on-one attention. Couldn't do that with a large group. Cured my shooting low left problem.”

    “Jim is very knowledgeable and a great teacher. He goes very in depth with the different rules and regulations. The range time was a blast with him. I definitely recommend him to anyone looking at getting the Wear and Carry permit or any sort of firearms training.”

    “I went to First shot Firearms Academy today and it was a great experience. Everything that was covered was clear and cut. Jim Scott is very knowledgeable and explained everything in detail. Thank you for allowing me to obtain my certificate and training for Delaware concealed carry.”

  • 2024 - Tammy Howell

    “I’ve had CCW training in the past with a larger group. 1st Shot Firearms Academy’s smaller group allowed for a more personal experience with all my questions getting answered. It also allowed for more of a one-on-one training at the range. Of all my years, I’ve never had an instructor help with my anticipation of the firearm’s recoil. Within minutes it was no longer an issue for me or my daughter, who was a first time shooter, thanks to our instructor, Jim Scott. I highly recommend 1st Shot Firearms Academy.”
