I attended the Intro to AR-15 class on 2/19/23 at NCCSC. It was a terrific class, with great content presented efficiently. I especially liked that there was plenty of opportunity to interact with/ask questions of Jim (Lead Instructor) and Neal (Associate Instructor). Jim and Neal made sure that everyone had their questions answered fully and offered valuable hands-on demos or relevant videos to drive home the point. Jim's style of instructing ensured that there was good interaction and participation by those in the class -- lots of good give-and-take and sharing of info/experience. Perhaps the most valuable part of the class was that each participant got hands-on 1-on-1 coaching from Jim and Neal to evaluate their respective rifle and accessories set-up, as well as the shooter's stance. Recommendations for improvement were freely offered and stance corrections were addressed patiently to make sure that the shooter "got it." I strongly recommend this class to anyone who is brand new to the AR platform. The class is also a valuable reminder to those who maybe have some experience with the AR-15 but who could benefit from a 'refresher.' Take this class; you won't be disappointed.
I've been shooting handguns for many years but recently stepped up to semiautomatic 5.56 rifles. I knew that I wanted to find a knowledgeable and experienced instructor to take several classes with to build my skills with a rifle. Jim and Cajun Arms exceeded my expectations. I started with the Intro to AR15 class. The class covered all of the fundamentals of the rifle and assumed no prior knowledge, which is perfect for a beginner. Jim had plenty of time for questions and, most importantly, made me feel comfortable to ask them. I enjoyed the class and Jim's teaching style so much that I signed up for Defensive Rifle 1.0 right after and plan to take several other classes with Cajun Arms. If you're new to rifles/carbines, I would strongly recommend the intro class. This was definitely an excellent investment in my training.
James made it very easy for me to organize a group session. He led a very informative Intro to Self Defense Pistol course for women. I feel more comfortable with guns in just as little as 2 hours. If you are looking for a great firearms training course, check out Cajun Arms!
I attended the Intro to Practical Defensive Pistol course and had a great time. Jim and Catherine were thorough in their instruction and I got a good amount of 1-on-1 attention from an instructor given the class had ~10 people in it. I was able to refine my skills and learn drills that I can practice on future range trips. I highly recommend this course to all types of beginners, even if you haven't shot before. They made sure they left nobody behind regardless of experience level. Thanks Cajun Arms!
