[Midwest Tactical Systems]

Who does regular training in the Midwest? Let's include only the states of Missouri, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, and Tennessee in the definition of "the Midwest."

First vote would be to Tom Givens at http://www.rangemaster.com. The team of Givens, Higgenbotham and Burns is tough to beat.

Farnam, Ayoob, Randy Cain, Hackathorn, Cirillo, Taylor, Tactical Defense Institute, Awerbuck, Hershel Davis' The Site, Jim Crews, and Thunder Ranch's mobile school has taught a course or two in Indiana.

Are you a fellow Hoosier?

I recently took the 5 day introductory pistol course at Chapman Academy outside of Columbia MO. The course is basically marksmanship training. I had two previous ThunderRanch pistol courses and LFI I and II from Mas Ayoob and the Chapman course compares very favorably. Ray Chapman retired a couple of years ago and John Skags now teaches the course. The level of instruction was very good and I received a great deal of individual help. I would strongly recommend the course to anyone who wants to improve their marksmanship. John Skags was a police officer for 13 years before he taught full-time at Chapman and is very knowledeable about armed conflict

A lot of the training here in Indiana takes place at Jefferson Township Rifle and Pistol Club, located near Winamac, Indiana. GLV

Jim Reinholt is a great guy, and his range is very nice. Most of these courses were indeed held there.
