    Need to pick up a RSO or CSO cert. with others to follow and am having a hard time finding classes and the few I've found do not fit my schedule. Figured I'd post here prior to blindly calling numbers of the NRA registry. I am in the NWI area, travel to Chicago/burbs OK. Indy/Ft. wayne, etc is out of the question.

    Any luck with the folks at Debs Gun Range, they have a bunch of NRA classes. If not, get in touch with Fortress Defense Consultants on here...Frank (Glock21 on INGO) should be able to help you out. Good luck!!!


    None of my people are Training Councilors. We've all used Brian Kapnick for our certs - he's located near O'Hare...and I don't have his number handy, but it's listed on the NRA Instructor's page on the NRA website.

    A former co-worker from Chicago is an NRA instructor. I could probably dig up his contact info if you want.

    At Deb's, if a shot hits the steel target hanger just right, lead back splatter can bounce back at your legs. Thus the long pants recommendation.
