  • Took the Hoosier State Training class this past Saturday “HST: Self-Defense AR Carbine”. It was a great learning experience and highly recommend it! Mr. Dan Burch is a very serious, dynamic, common sense instructor that shows you what works and what doesn’t. Weapon safety was a HUGE point right from the start. The skills presented are tailored for carbine close quarters. I’ve been shooting for years…and he could tell: “John, you’re an old-school rifle shooter.” That said, I had to learn many new skills and techniques, but it all made sense! Learning the different loads and malfunction clearing drills was key leading to live fire drills. It was a great value with lots of individual attention making sure you ‘get it right’. He leaves you with many skills to practice at home…sure hope I can remember them all. At times he said: “Feel like you’re drinking from a fire hose?” Ya, Dan, it sure did…but it was very worthwhile and fun. He even took the time; after a long strenuous day, to answer some of my questions about pistol shooting. Thanks again Dan, it was a great day!
