Took the Basic Pistol Training Course today. Great class very informative, relaxed setting, Joe answered any and all questions as they came up. A big part of the class was the safe handling of firearms. As I am just starting out with shooting thoroughly enjoyed the class Joe is a great instructor very knowledgeable.

I recently took the NRA Basic Pistol class with Jackalope Tactical. Joe is engaging as an instructor, and is able to review a large amount of information on pistol safety, components, stance, and sighting with great pacing. He also has laser blueguns and airsoft guns that provide a realistic training environment without the intimidation of firing a live weapon. Highly recommend this course if you are starting pistol shooting or if you want to supplement your practical experience.

In a word, SUPERB! Tactical and NRA certified firearms instructor Joseph Cusumano, kept us engaged, eager to learn and at the ending of the basics course safer, more knowledgeable and skilled in firearms safety and skill. This is a “must-attend” firearms course for novices as well as seasoned participants who wish to progress in their practical marksmanship and academic skills. I highly recommend this course and I believe students will come away safer and more proficient in firearms conduct and responsibilities. Many thanks to instructor Joseph Cusumano, who I think is a firearms specialist and his wife Robin who skillfully cared for our administrative needs. Your professional and genuine care for humanity has been life-changing.

I’ve been meaning to write and tell you how much I enjoyed the class!  It was great meeting you both.  Your passion for the subject and for teaching was really impressive. One can easily see that your drive is really to help others and not just to run a business.  I really appreciated the fact that you shared information that you thought would help us and not just what was predefined in the course.  I will be back for more (just not sure when).

Great course for anyone interested in learning about firearms and most importantly firearms safety. Highly recommend…very skilled and knowledgeable instructor.

This was an awesome class and very informative on basic pistol shooting class.

I just wanted to take a minute and thank both you and Joe for such a well run, informative and fun class. I went into it with a sense of apprehension for not being “fluent” in fire arms, as well as the fear I’m sure every new fire arm owner feels. You and Joe immediately put all that worry to rest!  I left the class with an increased interest, respect and passion for firearms. I really look forward to taking the second part of the class soon!
