The 300 or so will be the number of new operator/tactical/contractor automatic weapon/explosive entry training schools that soon will spread wings and flourish behind every small hill in America. With each new issue of any gun magazine, there seems to be another new facility with bigger guns, better staff and faster shooting running an ad.

After running my own school for 25 years, I have a few suggestions for these future trainers. The first is get liability insurance. It adds credibility and it insures your family will not be homeless waifs after some knot-head plugs another student. I know of several schools — and one great teacher — who did his whole gig without insurance. Don’t let it be you too.
