In Their Words
What Students Say
Google 5.0 from 42 reviewsAlways an awesome experience with Yonty's classes. I recently took the beginner handgun class with my wife and other couples. Our backgrounds varied from first time using a handgun to those that regularly practice. While highlighting safety, Yonty was able to tailor the class so that we all increased our knowledge and sharpened our skills. His experience, knowledge and communication skills allow him to excel as a teacher.
Garrett B., Beginner handgun class
We have done several classes with Yonty and all have been truly fantastic. He is an amazing instructor who can put anyone at ease who may be nervous and teach in a way that is relevant for all levels. I cannot recommend Yonty enough. If you are considering a course, just make it happen! It will be well worth your time!
Scott A., Several classes
I attended a concealed handgun class by K1 Risk in Klamath Falls. The class was a step above what I expected. It covered everything from gun safety to current and upcoming gun laws. In addition, the instructor Yonty offered some hands on training with things like proper stances and grips. They made the process of submitting permit applications easy as well, offering necessary fingerprinting and passport photo services. After the class I had some questions and they answered them promptly by email. I would definitely recommend taking their courses if you get the chance.
