This has ended up getting put on the back burner with everything else that's happened lately, but I finally secured space and firearms for the class. First lesson will be Friday at 6pm at [address] Mostly the basics this week, I think, but there'll be some practice in there too. So, if you're interested, leave your name (I don't particularly care if it's real or not, just what you'd prefer I call you), your level of experience with firearms, and whether you'd be interested in hand-to-hand training as well - that's being put on hold until I determine what the teacher to student ratio is like, as smaller groups are better for that.

There will be a small fee, probably about $15 a class, just to cover ammo and firearms rental. And as I've said before, if I don't think I can trust you with a firearm, I will not teach you.

You probably remembered, but I should very much like to attend both firearms and hand-to-hand training. I'm about a year out of military service, and have had all the trining - particularly in small sidearms. As it is, I never needed to use my training outside of practice... Well... until recently. I've picked up a little practice with pistol and revolver on my own, and own my own pair. I'm still rusty on some of the intricacies and longer range weaponry - rifles and the like.

Does that help?

Lessons in firearms? Interesting. In this city, I am sure there are many who could use the training.

What kind of hand-to-hand?

Would you like to meet me at the firing range in the morning? So you can decide if you want my help or not for yourself?

Hmm... I am still interested in a class like that? If it helps? I have... some experience with firearms, but not much. I am better at using axes and bigger swords. So... add Xander Harris to your list?

If you decide to have a hand-to-hand combat-class, I could send some of my crew. With there experience, I am sure they could be off help. If you want them.

Woah, dude, sometimes I forget how totally backwards this city is. Ammo? Seriously?

... I hate guns. Too many ways they can go wrong. But it's probably not a bad plan to learn to use one.

Personally, I've never fired anything other than a bowel disruptor, and hand-to-hand would be useful, but I'd wind up the class joke.

In short: I'll take the gun lessons and watch a session or two of the hand fighting before I decide if I'm in.
