Mike was a fantastic instructor! Helped improve my confidence in handling my firearm and aim! Thanks Mike! I look forward to further training with you!

I trained with Mike! I’d say it’s one of the best training sessions I’ve ever had! Although I was not the only one in the class I he made sure we were all engaged— those with less experience did not feel abandoned and those with a little more experience did not get bored. I have not had much formal training— much of what I’ve learned was a combination of YouTube and help from people who knew more than me.

Mike helped me feel good about what I had been doing well and helped me realize what I needed improvement on. Will recommend to my friends and family!

Training with Mike has been a true pleasure. He has made me feel confident and competent while handling my gun. His sunny personality and wealth of knowledge provided a great learning experience. Will definitely be going back for some of the other classes.

My group had the pleasure of spending 3 hours with Mike on the range today for basic handgun training. Mike is an exemplary instructor, good listener and always provides the “why” behind the “what” for any question we had. We came away with all the necessary skills that built confidence in handling a firearm.

Truly a deep learning experience for all.

As a newby gun owner and one who had never fired a firearm in my life, Mike delivered the commensurate knowledge and built confidence throughout the training.

I would highly recommend Baxter Firearms Training and Mike to anyone who wants to build their firearms skills.

I have a high respect for Mike. He is knowledgeable and personable.

I learned a lot from his class, and he was always ready to answer any questions I have.  I am more confident and comfortable using a firearm because of Mike.

Mike is a very friendly dude and an excellent firearms instructor! He loves to answer questions and to work with you and your firearm to improve your skills, and if you don’t like your gun or it isn’t working right he’s even happy to let you shoot a few of his. He’s full of good stories, analogies, and information, and he’s fun to go learn from. I was also very impressed by his enthusiasm and willingness to work with you after your class has ended at his range days or even one on one. You genuinely get the feeling that he cares about your ability to defend yourself and shoot safely. I can’t reccomend him enough!

Mike is an excellent firearms instructor. I highly recommend his Range Day class. My husband and I learned so much in the 3.5 hour lesson: holster practice – from a proper draw to rapid-fire pacing, precision practice with each eye and each hand, defensive accuracy, dual target strategies and much more. Mike personalized the lesson and experience for each student and proactively provided valuable feedback to give us confidence and improve our skills.

Mike was well prepared with extra equipment and, of course, extremely safe. Later that day, we received a lengthy email with specific skill practice recommendations for each of us and a list of items we discussed on-site; wow!

We are still buzzing about the fantastic day we had learning from Mike and look forward to future classes.
