I'm chiming in late, i know. I just wanted to give some impressions of the class. The classroom portion, I felt, was invaluable - especially the lawyer portion. I felt as though several key points about Maryland law were clarified and examined in great detail. The range portion of the training was somewhat disconcerting since some of the things we got to do are things I, at least, never get to practice. Drawing from a holster, from concealment, with movement, etc. These are things you usually don't get to do at a public range. To sum it up, anyone on the fence about taking this training should get off the fence and git'r'done. You'll be glad you did. I'm really hoping to take the advanced class when offered, too!
one enchancement i'd like to suggest - someone should organize an open-carry lunch outing if the class is taught in Pennsylvania. I say this because it was obvious that many of the class (myself foremost among them) don't know what it's like to be able to legally carry our guns anywhere. BGOS, right? I dunno if the instructors can do such a thing, but perhaps if the next batch of students come mostly from MDS, someone would be willing to take the reins and figure something out.
Is anyone aware of when our certificates get mailed to us?

I just received the replacements for the ones my printer ate, I will have them out to you guys or I will bring them to the next steel plate shoot for those that are going to be there.
Dan told me there were thoughts of putting together a more advanced class, to be held in another location. Any chance of this?

I stand corrected. I read the requirements again and it does allow for other like qualifications. I mixed the class requirements with the instructor class requirements.That is not true, there is a qualification that can be done instead of having to take the PPITH class.
