Everyday I receive wonderful e-mail from students and First Family Members sharing real life stories relating directly to their training at Front Sight.\u00a0 Reading these stories is truly
\none of the the best rewards for my efforts as Director of Front Sight Resorts.<\/p>\n
I thought you might like to see a sampling of the stories received in the last few days.\u00a0 Each is different, yet they all have the same common thread.<\/p>\n
I shall post these over the next several days, so keep a look out.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A chance meeting at a firearms competition has two Montgomery\u00a0County Sheriff’s deputies headed for a prestigious firearms\u00a0training facility in Nevada, free of charge.<\/p>\n

J.C.\u00a0Fleming with a $2,400 scholarship to enable two deputies to\u00a0attend a four-day defensive firearms training course at Front\u00a0Sight’s facility near Las Vegas.<\/p>\n
“Law enforcement officers have an extremely dangerous and\u00a0difficult job,” Dennis said. “When your life is on the line\u00a0every day, you can never get enough training. I am pleased to\u00a0be in a position to offer Front Sight’s highly regarded\u00a0firearms training courses to the men and women that serve our\u00a0communities.\u00a0 They deserve it.<\/p>\n
Culbreath and Salter would be the two officers attending the\u00a0program. Being members of the Sheriff’s Department’s tactical\u00a0response team and trainers at their academy….<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
