Anthony:
Yesterday was a WIDE - eye opener! Speaking to Joe, Mac, and Chuck, and later with you and Rob, was an educational experience I have never had, but already employed in some degrees in my home last night before bed. I am anxious to continue. The simulated real life enactment was as genuine as I have ever had and hope to ever have.
When I got home last night, I took everything that Chuck talked about re: my home alarm system, called the company, and refreshed myself on creating a better plan and gaining more time for my reaction.
Attached are the two letters I sent my Police Chief in application of the weapon permit. Feel free to use the format in any way that will help you in your training or someone to get an idea of what is required.
And thank God you guys confirmed what I had been researching about carrying the Glock 19. The material that Joe presented in the lecture - is there anyway I can get a copy of it for review and reinforcement?
I appreciate your assistance in helping me acquire the gun from the Bullet Hole. If I can get it for $430, inclusive, I'll take it, and would like to purchase it ASAP so that I can start training immediately. Then, of course, I'll need to qualify in order to carry it.
Finally, you and I need to start thinking about how we are going to introduce Simunition to our state association (NJLPIA). I think an interview with you for our next edition of the newsletter would generate interest, and then have you come in to speak at one of our dinner meetings. Beyond that, we see how many are interested to go beyond, and as you said, develop a program just for PI's. I know that former LE who carry have been separated from the job many years, and some of them have been rejected from the CCW permit because of lack of justifiable need. One of them is our Executive VP, who has years of training as a detective and other positions, but was turned down by his town for failure to show justifiable need.
I am so glad I got mine when I did. Adding the Glock to my arsenal of defense will augment my ability to defuse a harmful threat, especially as Iobtain more training from GFH. And as you will see in my letter(s), I have spent a lot of time in prayer, thought, research, and counsel with my Pastors before making the decision about carrying the Glock. And you guys
sealed it yesterday. I look forward to hearing what the Bullet Hole has to say, otherwise, I'll order it from Texas.
Thanks again for what could be a life-saving experience. God Bless you and your team; be safe, and Happy Easter. HE HAS RISEN!

Hi Anthony
Joe and the other two instructors did a great job! My hand was shaking and heart was pounding. The scenarios were very realistic and the review / constructive criticism was insightful. At the end we reviewed the videos of our scenarios which was extremely helpful in witnessing our strong and weak points.
As the simunitions grow in levels or different scenarios I would like several concealed carry situations and maybe a parked car (car jacking) situation. Just some suggestions.
I think my sister maybe interested in the simunitions class as well!
Thanks again it was well worth it

The Sims class exceeded my expectations. As advertised, this is “as real as it gets.” One-on-one training with superb instructors in realistic, home protection scenarios is exactly what I wanted. Chuck and Joe are gifted instructors. The time they spent answering questions and addressing my individual issues and challenges was invaluable. So were the video reviews. GFH delivered. I will be back for more.
