Gentlemen - I haven't taken the Gander class so I shouldn't comment on that, but for an extra $5 you could take a Basic Handgun class from Jim Torrez of Tactical Skills Institute ($130) which meets the CO requirements for a CCW:

Plus, in addition to my Basic he offered an Intermediate class immediately following the Basic at a discounted rate. If you talk to him you might ask about that.

Yeah, he's a ways for you in Greeley, but his training is VERY worth it! And speaking from experience, I've had classes from other instructors and Torrez is far and away the best I've had.

My .02 cents...
