Private Coaching Session
1/31/12 - My wife and I had a 2 hour private gun lesson on 2-1-12.
We had a great experience! My wife and I had zero experience with handling
a hand gun, and Tony made us feel at ease before entering the range. We
went over basic safety along with the proper way to shoot before firing a
round.
While shooting, Tony was very encouraging and continued to teach us and
give us tips on how we could become better and what we needed to practice.
As an added bonus, Tony brought along a couple of different guns for us to
try out.
We now feel comfortable enough to go to the range on our own and plan to
purchase a hand gun for home/personal protection in the near future.
We will also be attending additional classes in the future!

1/29/12 -I highly recommend the concealed handgun license class
from the Arlington Gun Academy to anyone who is interested in obtaining a
license. There was a scheduling conflict on my part and the instructor
went out of his way to accommodate myself. Tony was very helpful and
professional all day. I highly recommend this class.

Concealed Handgun License Class
1/29/12 - It was awesome! We had signed up to take the CHL class
from a different school who had been advertising on the web. We were told
to just show up the day of the class at the range. When we showed up, come
to find out, the original class that we were to attend wasn't at that
location that day, but Tony told us that it was no problem and that we
would figure it out. Thanks, Tony, for accommodating our group in your
class, making it both entertaining and informative. Your input on shooting
technique and your method of instruction on the range was very much
appreciated and inspired confidence.

1/29/12 - It was truly a great experience. Tony is so knowledgeable
about laws and gun safety not to mention funny as well. It seems as if
time flew by so quickly during class. Great job Tony!, I'll be signing up
for the advanced pistol shooting class soon.
F.O., Kennedale, TX
Concealed Handgun License Class
1/29/12 - We were lucky to run into Tony cause we had problem with
the CHL class we were supposed to attend. Tony accommodated us and allowed
us to join his class.
Tony's class was very informative and interesting. His lecture style was
engaging and made participants feel free to ask any questions. He used
real world examples to explain difficult to understand laws and
regulations. Not once did I feel bored, tired or narcoleptic during the
entire day! I am especially impressed by how Tony stressed the
responsibility that comes with CHL. Tony is a top instructor and his
classes are highly recommended.
M.C., Fort Worth, TX
Concealed Handgun License Class
1/29/12 - Thanks for a great CHL class! I can honestly say that I
learned some very important information from you during my CHL renewal
class that I had not been informed about during my new student class from
a previous instructor. You made the class very enjoyable and as a result,
the hours just flew by. My friend was also very glad to have chosen you as
his first time CHL instructor. Thanks Again,
F.S., Mansfield, TX

Ladies Only Basics of Pistol Shooting Class
1/28/12- It was a wonderful class. I came in terrified of guns, but
after Tony's encouragement, I feel must less terrified and must more
confident. I am seriously thinking about purchasing a gun for safety.
Thanks again, Tony, for the great class.
K.J., Irving, TX
Ladies Only Basics of Pistol Shooting Class
1/28/12- I had already taken a private lesson with Tony before this
class, so I knew he was good, but I brought my Mom to his class and I
found out he was awesome!
I was terrified of guns before working with Tony. I had never even held a
gun before I met him. My mom had never held a gun either. Now she and I
are so comfortable handling a gun, shooting a gun and cleaning a gun!!
The shooting lesson at the gallery was great! I am so excited and not only
would I recommend this class, but I would highly recommend Tony as an
instructor to everyone I speak with!!
S.W., Arlington, TX
Concealed Handgun License Class
1/9/12- Tony did an excellent job. He was more than personable and
went way out of his way to make sure that I retained all of the
information that I had learned. I have already recommended him to three
other people because I highly think that Tony did a wonderful job as a CHL
instructor
J.W., Dallas, TX
Concealed Handgun License Class
12/19/11- I gotta to tell you, I heard a lot of stories about
instructors. Most stories were about attitudes, ranging from silly to
military.
Tony is serious on the lite side. Really keeping the class open to
questions and instructions. Also with knowledge and tips on the shooting
test made us all feel confident. Tony is an expert in his field and shoots
in competitions. He reassured us that he is willing to meet all needs and
also in the future if needed. I appreciate Tony's gratitude for the
industry and the love he has for the USA and also for our rights and
protection from those who mean harm to us and our love ones.
Thanks Tony and God bless!

very professionally. Best class I have attended.
Thanks Tony.
D.N., Arlington, TX
Concealed Handgun License Class
12/18/11 - Thank you for the training you offered me. it was very
helpful for me. I would rate the class in the high 90s. The only thing was
that a couple of questions [on the final exam] could have gone either way.
The shooting instruction was great. Not having shot a pistol in almost 40
years, your personal instructions were of great help.
You are right, practice makes perfect. I will take your advice very
seriously and apply it to the times I am at the range. Your class room was
well organized and you took the time to guide your students through each
part of the instructions. That is always a plus.
Thanks for all you did and I would highly recommend this class to anyone
looking to receive the training for the CHL. God bless. Until next time.

11/27/11 - I knew very little going into class and was a bit
nervous. The course is excellent. As a woman I feel 100% confident in my
knowledge and shooting skills. I'm now taking my son to a course and I'm
getting my CHL. Thank you Tony (best instructor ever!).
B.R., Arlington, TX
Concealed Handgun License Class
On 11/20/11 -I attended the Arlington Gun Academy for my first time
renewal. I have to tell you the importance of having such a great and
expert instructor. Tony Arbelaez is the guy for job, if you want the
proper training and to know the proper laws that are needed to be a CHL
carrier.
His experiences, skills, and studies have have helped elevate my
experience, skills, and keeping up with the laws that protect me and you.
Defend yourself and the safety of your family! Control the situation
before the situation gets out of control. I am personally highly
recommending this CHL Course to those who are considering becoming a CHL
carrier or even needing to do renewals, or maybe you just need the proper
training.
A.L., Arlington, TX
Concealed Handgun License Class
On 11/20/11 - In my 25 years of handgun experience I have never met
anyone as knowledgeable as Tony, the Chief Instructor. He is well
accomplished and a master of his craft. I'm looking forward to taking a
tactical pistol class as well as personal coaching with him. I can't
stress enough, how important it is that you are properly educated. At the
Arlington Gun Academy, they go above and beyond simply educating a
student. They take a personal interest in you. I took away far more than I
expected.
B.J., Mansfield, TX
Ladies Only NRA Basics of

On 11/19/11 - Took the Ladies Only Basic Pistol class today an
absolutely love the course. Tony is an outstanding instructor with safety
as a primary goal. We left with a thorough knowledge of safe pistol
handling, shooting, and cleaning. Tony gave special attention to each
individual as we shot 50 rounds. He was quick to point our both our
strengths and where we needed improvement. I could not be happier with the
decision to attend this class. Thanks Tony!

pride in what he does and he proves it in his training. He also works to
improve your shooting techniques, teaches you proper and constructive ways
to practice, and stresses the importance of self control and safety

J.M., Trophy Club, TX
FFL Transfers
10/22/11 - A.G.A. TREATS YOU LIKE FAMILY! I have made many firearms
purchases w/o a hitch. I'm retired military and have shot at many ranges
and their range is the best by far. Tony is OUTSTANDING! He took personal
time to watch and point out some 'bad habits' I had picked up from not
practicing (that's what happens). He got me back in to tight groups
quick--dead on accurate. I will be taking the CHL class soon. I wouldn't
want any other instructor than Tony. I'll see you at the range!
B.C., Arlington, TX
FFL Transfers
10/7/11 - If your looking to purchase a firearm online and need a
local FFL dealer to handle the transfer, Arlington Gun Academy is your
answer. Great communication and quick response time on retrieving your
firearm. Have done four transfers with them which went great, and plan on
doing more in the future. I highly recommend them for your firearm
transfer.

Private Pistol Shooting Coaching Session.
On 8/30/2011. I made a decision to buy a handgun, but had not
touched a gun in nearly 40 years. I signed up for a Private Coaching
session with Tony, and that turned out to be the best choice I could have
made! In our 2 hour training session, I learned proper range procedure,
safe gun handling and good shooting technique. Tony was kind enough to
bring out several of his personal firearms for me to try out. I shot
multiple guns of varying caliber, and learned how to safely handle each of
them. With Tony's instruction on proper technique, I was consistently
making accurate shots almost from the beginning of the session. I was very
surprised. I feel I now have a great foundation to build on. Thanks, Tony!
J.J., Arlington, TX
Concealed Handgun

On 8/21/2011, I attended the Concealed Handgun License Renewal
Class and Tony was a terrific class instructor! I have attended three
other renewal classes and this was the best for the information,
demonstration and educational material presented. Tony did an excellent
job of presenting the material and making it fun to sit through. Tony has
a great understanding of the law and communicated that knowledge is an
easily-understandable way to the class. He did an outstanding job in basic
fundamentals of marksmanship and range safety. I am looking forward to
taking the tactical shooting class. Thanks Tony for a great class!

On 7/23/11 - I took the NRA basic pistol shooting class with Tony.
It was enjoyable and well worth the time. Based upon his shooting tips to
correct my errors and a few weeks of practice implementing is advice, I
can now empty a 9mm magazine into a 6-7 inch circle at 15 yards. Thanks

Concealed Handgun

On 7/16/2011, I attended the Concealed Handgun License Renewal Class.
Great class! This was my third renewal class and by far the most
informative and educational. Chief Firearms Instructor Tony Arbelaez,
clearly presented the material in professional yet relaxed manner. He has
a deep understanding of the law and conveyed that knowledge is an
easily-understandable way to the class. Thanks Tony!
S.B., Bedford, TX
Concealed Handgun

7/16/11 - Great class! Chief Firearms Instructor Tony Arbelaez did a
great job reinforcing the fundamentals of marksmanship and safety. His
understanding of the penal codes is surpassed only by his ability to
articulate them to his students. The power point presentation was
informative and broken up well by training videos. The time flew by. I’m
looking forward to taking his tactical shooting classes. Thanks Tony!
A.W., Arlington, TX
Concealed Handgun

7/16/11 - I took my CHL class with Tony today. It was a GREAT
experience. Tony is very professional, informative, kind and he keeps it
interesting and enjoyable. I plan on enrolling in more classes through
Arlington Gun Academy, without a doubt. The price was comparable with all
others, the quality was absolutely great.
THANKS TONY! I'll be back for that black hat in 4 years!

6/26/11 - I have taken Basics of Pistol Shooting and CHL classes at
Arlington Gun Academy. Both classes were extremely informative and
educational, yet the instructor really keeps your interest and the time
flies by.
It's great to be able to learn from an expert like Tony Arbelaez.
I look forward to my next class!
L.B., Arlington, TX

6/26/11 - I took the CHL class with Tony on 6/26/11 and had a
blast. I looked at several classes in the DFW area and picked Arlington
Gun Academy based on the reviews. I could not have been happier with my
decision and encourage you to use them as well.
Tony has a great delivery that keeps you alert, learning, and involved.
His presentation had the latest up to date information with data even from
that week and also included keys elements from the past which have helped
form the program as it stands today. Tony goes above and beyond what is
required in the training and provides a well-rounded education pulling
from all of his various classes.
Don't delay wishing you had taken your CHL class.
S.R., Arlington, TX

If you want to take a CHL class, the Arlington Gun Academy is the place to
do so.

NRA Basics of

On 6/25/11 - I took the handgun basics class after already getting
my CHL, and having fired a thousand rounds or so. I just felt like I
didn't have the fundamentals down that I needed. Tony's class was
fantastic. I really learned a great deal, and Tony helped me with the
fundamentals I was lacking to be a better marksman. I'll be signing up for
a tactical class next!
D.W., North Richland Hills, TX

6/25/11 - Chief Instructor Tony was very informative in the class
and was helpful on the laws and regulations about firearms. He helped me
develop a good habit on safely handling a pistol and the proper way to
store it. I got my NRA basic and CHL certificates and will try to join
some other classes that he offers.
Thanks Tony!.
J.H., Arlington, TX
Concealed Handgun

6/18/11 - Thank you for the class that Tony instructed. I was very
impressed with his knowledge and current references to the information
that I was looking for. The class was formal, to the point, for every
question asked.... Tony does not pull any punches he is serious about his
teachings and ensures each student clearly understands the pros' and con's
of every decision and or action that must be applied in the ownership of a
concealed handgun license. I have had time to talk with other adults at
work about Arlington Gun Academy and found that the interest is very high
and priced well for the class. I plan to take advanced shooting and home
defense courses as well.
Thanks for a well planned class. .
M.H., Arlington, TX
Concealed Handgun

5/31/11 - This was my third CHL class and by far, the best and most
interesting that I had been part of. Tony kept the class lively and moving
forward so much that I opted to stay the entire class instead of testing
out and leaving early. The use of multi-presentations and video made the
class so much more that just the old boring "lecture" type class that I
had attended in the past. I would strongly recommend Tony's CHL class to
anyone that is intrested in securing their CHL permit.

Attended 5/7/2011.just completed my second course with Tony and the
experience was once again good...I have now taken the Hunters Safety

may need, answering questions and sharing experiences...Since my class I
have shared my experience with others who are interested in getting their
CHL...I look forward to taking the tactical combat class in the future...

Attended 3/27/2011.Tony was an incredible instructor, polite,
knowledgeable, and humorous. His advices were very helpful and after just
a few tips, my shooting improved. The 10 hour long CHL did not feel like a
drag and I was able to learn and retain all of the information required to
be a safe and responsible CHL holder. I would highly recommend taking your
CHL course with Tony.

Attended 3/27/2011. I registered for the handgun license with no
previous knowledge about guns or how to handle one. One day in class with
Tony Arbelaez, I learned a whole lot and it helped me be able to
handle a gun properly and of course safely. He is awesome and a great
instructor.
He explains very well and takes his time with you. He is the best.
Thank you Tony

My daughter (12 years) and I took the NRA basic class recently, and
thoroughly enjoyed it. Tony, AGA chief instructor, made the class
interesting, and preached safety from the moment the class started. I will
definitely use AGA for my CHL class, and NRA advanced pistol class. I
walked in the class with a limited experience of using handguns, and left
feeling confident of how to own and use a hangun.

I took the basic gun training class on 1/15 and the CHL class the next
day!
I had never shot a gun in my life prior to basic class on Saturday.
I listened to what Tony said you needed to do to get a bulls eye...and
that's what happened! Bulls eye after bulls eye!! I was the best shooter
in both classes. I feel very comfortable with my new gun. I'm saving up
for more classes with him! MUST GO TO TONY!!
R.C. , Arlington, TX

Tony was extremely polite and professional in handling my FFL

my job. Would not hesitate to use Tony again for any more FFL transfers.
J.E. , Grand Prairie, TX
NRA Basics of
Shooting Course
Attended 12/5/10. I had such a great time in the Basics in
Pistol Shooting class! Tony is a wonderful instructor and I can't tell you
how much better I feel about owning a handgun. I've fired a handgun maybe
2-3 times before, but I have never felt comfortable with one because I had
lacked the knowledge to trouble shoot or load the weapon and because of
that, I would never have considered owning one myself. But Tony fixed all
that!
I plan on taking the CHL class later this month!!
Thanks again Tony!!
L.W. , Arlington, TX

Attended 7/18/2010. A great course Tony was a well informed

I would recommend his class to anyone that is serious about getting a
C.H.L or any kind of firearms training to get in touch with Tony A.S.A.P
On September 12 PLASTIC CAME IN THE MAIL!!! THANK'S

NRA Basics of
Shooting Course
I took your NRA Basics of Shooting class a little over a month ago
and I wanted to let you know that I took my CHL class yesterday and shot a
perfect score, 250!! I haven't shot at all since your class but I
remembered almost everything you taught us about stance, grip, sight
picture/alignment, etc. Everything just came back to me automatically when
I was on the line ready to shoot. I've never even shot a target at 15
yards and I didn't miss a single one outside of the 5 point zone.
So, thanks again for being a great instructor! I don't think I could
have shot that well without taking your course first. I will definitely
recommend it to others.

I completed the CHL course this past weekend with Tony and it was
great. Tony does an amazing job of keeping the interest of his students
and injects some of his own humor into the course to keep you feeling
engaged. He was very patient and answered all the questions about the
required paperwork and course material, as well as giving some great
shooting tips. The course was worth every dollar and comes highly
recommended.

My entire family has been to Arlington Gun Academy. As a retired
Federal Law Enforcement Officer I am very serious about my 2nd Amendment
rights, but I am equally as serious about safety and knowledge of the
prevailing laws. Tony demonstrated the highest level of expertise both in
the classroom and on the range. I recommend Arlington Gun Academy to
anyone interested in obtaining a CHL.
