Very glad I took this class from Arlington Gun Academy, and Tony. Very informative and easy to learn. Only second time shooting my LTC handgun. Tony helped me with my grip, and it also brought to my attention breathing technique. My accuracy definitely increased. Highly recommend their class.

Mr. Arbelaez is a great instructor. Being a complete beginner, my goal was to build some confidence in concealed carry. Along with the basics, Mr. Arbelaez had about 10 drills with time standards. These drills can be practiced using the time standards as a guide as to what needs to be practiced the most. After the 2-hours with Mr. Arbelaz, I feel OK with carrying, drawing, firing, and re-holstering a concealed pistol. Almost all the time was spent practicing for real-life situations. I don't see how a person could feel OK without some instruction first.

Attended Tony's class last Saturday 1/18/20. Tony did an exceptional job of presenting the material in away that could be understood. Excellent job teaching safety and proper way to shoot. His technique allowed me to score a lot better than I would have without the training. Thanks Tony.

Mr. Arbelaez made my decision to go after my license to carry well worth my time. The class was extremely informative, and was well structured to a very diverse classroom. The class caters to a wide audience, and should not be imagined that everyone is a "redneck" or "country folk" in the class. Mr. Arbelaez caters to everyone that is willing to learn and is motivated to protect themselves. I personally felt welcomed and involved once I set foot in classroom. I will recommend this school to everyone that I know is interested in getting a license to carry. The class itself taught me many things, most importantly personally, the right way to grip a handgun, and the stance one should take in having to shoot your firearm. SAFETY is the most important agenda in the class, and everyone, including Mr. Arbelaez, takes that notion seriously at all times, whether you are in the classroom or on the range. If you are interested in participating in protecting yourself, and expressing your carrying rights, concealed or openly, I would recommend this class thoroughly to all people looking for a solid base education and knowledge in the realm of protection for oneself and others around you.

I recently moved here from PA. I had my carry license in PA and thought it would be an easy transfer process, just filling out some paper work etc. I was annoyed that for carry in TX I had to register, take a class, take a exam and a shooting test. I found Arlngton Gun Academy because they were close. Boy, was I fortunate, the class was taught by Tony who was very personable, relatable but most important knowledgeable. Tony changed my grip, my stance the result... a perfect score. The penal code portion could have been very dry and boring but he interjected real world examples that made it interesting and understandable. I feel much more confident in my abilities and knowledge as I carry in my new home state. I cannot recommend Tony and Arlington Gun Academy highly enough.

I recently completed the LtC course taught by Tony. Going in, I figured it would be 4-5 hours of dry Power Point slides of relevant laws and statutes through which I'd struggle not to be bored to tears. That was not the case. Tony encouraged the class to share stories and concerns by first sharing his own. It led to a number of in-depth discussions on what it means to be a responsible gun owner and the situations where, heaven forbid, action might be warranted. Tony also took the time to offer his expertise and suggestions on shooting techniques. He showed me a slightly different way to hold my pistol that truly seemed to help in the range qualification. I can't wait to get out and practice again. All-in-all, an enjoyable experience. Well worth it. 5 Stars!.

I attended the Intro to Pistol Shooting Class and LOVED it! Mr. Arbelaez was our instructor. He was so knowledgeable and made everyone feel comfortable. I learned so much important information about shooting, handling, safety, ammo, cleaning, etc. I went to the range the day before to shoot the gun I was using for the class and it amazed me how much of a difference in my targets in just ONE DAY! I highly recommend this class for anyone who is interested in learning more about pistols or is working towards getting their CHL. I am also attending the CHL class and feel more than ready! I cannot give Mr. Arbelaez enough of cudoz for the great instructions and knowledge!

I enjoyed taking the Intro to Pistol Shooting class with Mr. Tony Arbelaez as the instructor. Within the first 30 minutes I was convinced that I had made one of the best decisions I could have ever made. Learning the basic fundamentals of a Shooting Range to knowing how to protect my rights as a gun owner were great topics. I strongly recommend this class to women of all ages! If you are looking to take a class that will truly teach you how to use a gun, this is certainly the class. I had only been shooting a couple of times prior to the class. When I signed up, I was nervous and wasnt sure what to expect. But I can honestly say, the class exceeded my expectations! The class was fun, interesting and informative. Mr. Arbeleaz was patient and encouraged questions throughout the entire day of training. He made me feel at ease even when I would digress back to bad habits (i.e. Not holding my position on the range). But he continued to repeat himself until I finally begin to hold my position without thinking about it. I still have more practice to do, but I'm off to a great start by attending this class and learning how to properly use and handle my pistol. And I really liked cleaning my own pistol, it helped me become much more comfortable with handling it. Next stopIm on my way to get my LTC. So, I will be back in class with Mr. Arbeleaz and Im looking forward to it!

Tony is an excellent instructor and I was very happy to have him teach the License to Carry class. He really hits home on the importance of safety and situational awareness. I walked out of his class with a much greater understanding of Texas gun laws and I can now identify/understand the various signs that relate to carrying a firearm in public. Tonys class gets an A+ from me.

When I purchased my first pistol I knew I needed to take safety course because it had been well over 20 years since I had fired any kind of weapon. I checked several courses in the DFW area and all of them were 1-2 hours and just didn't seem to be very comprehensive. I ran across Tony's class and it seemed to be exactly what I was looking for. Best class I've ever taken. From gun safety, to proper grip/shooting techniques, to cleaning and maintaining my new pistol. Great class and I can't wait to get out on the range and put my new found knowledge to work!

Very thorough, complete beginners class. The instructor was very experienced and provided a wealth of information. The shooting portion of the class provided us with immediate feedback to correct ways we could improve. As a seventy four year old lady who was initially afraid of guns, I was able to get over that and feel that I could use a gun for protection at home if necessary. I have signed up for the CHL course so that I can have my gun with me as I feel necessary. I would definitely recommend this class as a beginner or as a refresher course.

You never know what you are truly signing up for when you don't have any referrals or recommendations but let me tell you, from the moment I walked in there was a friendly atmosphere. Tony was a great instructor and is very knowledgeable. There were no distractions and the room was comfortable. Most of all, I was not bored. The instructor had my attention the whole time. I would strongly recommend anyone to go through the concealed carry class at Arlington Academy!
I will be back.

This class was somewhat different from what I expected, but only in a very positive way. I expected our instructor to be competent as to gun knowledge and relevant laws, but Tony Arbelaez is so much more as an instructor. He conveys the needed knowledge in a personal way, such that, when the day was over, I felt I had internalized the information, and was prepared to accept the Constitutional right and solemn civic responsibility with confidence. I originally thought I would carry only occasionally, but, with Tony's guidance, I have changed my mind on this, and was aware of this building confidence as his class progressed. I now feel confident I can protect my beloved family, and, in dire circumstances, other innocent citizens, along with myself, of course, without any undercurrent of concern I might respond inappropriately. Any such doubt was extinguished in Tony's class. I now am confident that, as a licensed carrier, I will be even more calm when confronting an extraordinary circumstance--simply because I know that, along with my firearm, I also carry the understanding I have been empowered to effectively deal with it.
  As a pilot, scuba instructor, and Vietnam-era US Marine, I have some experience with training. The whole point of training is preparing individuals so they know in advance how to handle situations--the midst of an emergency is not the time and place to try to figure things out. Thanks Tony! On a scale of one to ten you are a four-square, bona fide, 10.0!.

I attended Mr. Arbelaez's License to Carry Class last weekend. I walked in thinking this was going to be a long, uninteresting but mandatory class if I wanted to protect myself. I came out believing all potential gun owners should absolutely attend this class. It was very humbling, interesting and informative. Mr. Arbelaez's manner of instruction was relaxing and he absolutely took the fear out of failing out of my vocabulary. I would recommend this class to anyone who has decided to use a gun as another protective tool for personal safety.

Before coming to this class, I had in mind, 6 long and boring hours where facts and laws about gun will be blindly thrown at you. Oh how wrong was I, Tony made the class more of a conversation and very artfully explained everything that needed to be said in a manner that kept my attention for the whole time. I learned a lot and I think all of it will stay with me forever. Another thing, For a first-timer at shooting with a gun, with Tony's technique, I felt like a Pro.. Hahaha!

Amazing patience by instructor Tony with someone (me) who had never fired a handgun in 66 years. He stuck with me until I got it right. while I came in just wanting a license so that I could own a gun for protection, I now know there's more to it and I will be seeking Tony for periodic coaching so my skills can be sharpened and stay sharp.

The Arlington Gun Academy has been handling the transfer of all my firearm purchases for the past few years now. Based on that prior experience, I already knew Tony is very knowledgeable about everything firearms (i.e. from operation & maintenance to local & federal regulations, both current & pending)... So when I decided to get my CHL, taking the class at AGA was really a no brainer for me. The CHL class at AGA provided very thorough information about all of the restrictions with which CHL holders must comply... But Tony also provided very easy to understand fundamentals of proper handgun marksmanship, which will be extremely useful in the handgun shooting training anyone who plans to concealed carry should really make a part of their regular routine. I would definitely recommend taking the CHL class at AGA to anyone considering obtaining their CHL. I would also definitely recommend contacting AGA to anyone interested in getting the very best deal possible on
a firearm purchase (i.e. shop around for the best price on the gun you're interested in online & then let AGA handle the transfer for you)!

The Academy presentation by Tony Arbelaez was extremely educational and beneficial. I was a novice taking this class. I came away with several pages of notes about gun safety, background, components, maintenance, and proper function. Be prepared to utilize your new knowledge on range, as well as, on a written test. The test cements your knowledge. Tony is VERY knowledgeable, answers all questions thoroughly, and encourages questions which benefit the "asker", as well as, the entire class. I would recommend this class for any gun enthusiast who is in the beginning stages of contemplating gun ownership.

Had never held/owned a gun and apprehensive on many levels before this class. Tony Arbelaez not only put me at ease early in the class, but was able to coach me to target shoot productively when it came to that part of course. I felt safe and learned a lot about handling guns safely. A MAIN GOAL. I also have enough information to decide whether to go forward.

I had an excellent experience and enjoyed attending the LTC course offered by Arlington Gun Academy. I would highly recommend attending this course to anyone choosing to pursue education on the topic of CHL/LTC, regardless of your personal preference to license or carry a firearm. All course prerequisites and course expectations were made clear and available prior to attendance. All of my expectations were were exceeded with the expert instruction provided by Chief Firearms Training Instructor, Mr. Tony Arbelaez.

The course itself was articulate in covering aspects of firearm safety, proper care & maintenance, safe storage, transportation, concealment and concealment laws, new Texas open-carry and open-carry laws, responsibility of licensees, federal and state code, House and Senate Bills, situational awareness & preparedness, and proper communication methods & dispute resolution practices. The course also included the proficiency demonstration exam required by the State of Texas.

The high quality of instruction was well demonstrated with enough time allowed for open discussion and Q&A. I found this course to be extremely informative and a very thorough training and coverage to the many questions we all have as owners of firearms.

Thank you for developing this course and walking through the process for obtaining responsible licensing. I have a high confidence in better understanding the laws and my rights and responsibilities to carry a firearm due to the expert instruction received from this training opportunity.

When I decided to get my CHL, I knew I needed to get some training on everything associated with shooting a gun – from choosing ammunition, loading the magazine, aiming and shooting, gun safety, disassembling and cleaning, and everything else I needed to know to prepare for testing for my CHL. I made the good decision to take the NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting Class offered at the Arlington Gun Academy. I had very little experience shooting guns, and firmly believe I wouldn’t have passed my CHL if I hadn’t taken the pistol class first!

Tony Arbelaez was my Chief Firearms Instructor for both my pistol class and for the CHL class. What a great guy! I’m a lady senior citizen and I was a little bit apprehensive about the classes – but shouldn’t have been. Tony was extremely professional, kind and patient! He keeps his classes small so that each person in the class receives individual attention in both the classroom and the shooting range.

Well, I was just two points away from winning a much-sought-after baseball cap. Ah, so very close! ;o) I passed both classes with flying colors (thanks to Tony’s training), purchased a gun that’s perfect for my hand strength and individual need, and now feel confident about concealed carry.

Thanks again, Tony, for all your help!

You may find CHL classes advertised at lower prices, or at the TX minimum 4 hours, BUT you will NOT find one more professionally conducted, or with more personal attention given to each participant in class than this one. I found Mr. Tony Arbelaez to be literally "as good as it gets" as far as his expertise, knowledge, passion for the subject, and ability to communicate effectively.

If you are in DFW area, and considering a CHL class, or any other firearms training, DO NOT PASS UP the opportunity to consider Mr. Arbelaez and Arlington Gun Academy! (If your expectations include excellence, not just "good enough", this is the place for you!)

Mr. Arbelaez is a great instructor, took his time to answer any and all questions, even sent a follow up answer the following day. There were also plenty of breaks given and a 30 min lunch (so bring a sack from home if you don't want to spend more than you have to), so it wasn't 6 straight hrs of lecture.

The class portion covered firing fundamentals really well, any first time shooter would ace the class. Laws were addressed properly there is no reason anyone that went through this course to not know the proper places to conceal carry. Everything was cautiously conveyed to us. 

The firing portion was a piece of cake, like mentioned earlier his fundamental instructions really helped, there is no reason one should fail this portion if you follow what he says. If you are worried about the shooting portion go to a range and practice a bit, familiarize yourself with your weapon. If you don't yet own one search for ranges that have rental weapons.

Great Class 10/10 will recommend to family and friends.

Tony was a great teacher, I was one shot away from a perfect shooting score. Having never really known how to aim he helped me tremendously. It was a great course he was very down to earth and comfortable in the classroom, until he stepped on the range which I could tell he was in his element which was very assuring. He wasn't too cold or intimidating. I would highly recommend.

Tony is a great instructor and educator. He brings his 25 years of experience to provide great instruction to the CHL class. The value gained from this class is amazing. Tony not only goes over the "state required" information, but includes current issues and instances to make his points. He takes time to help those less familiar with handgun operation and you get the sense that your are taking a CHL as well as a class on improving your shot all in one package deal. This is not some class to be nervous about if you are unfamiliar with handguns. Tony makes everyone feel comfortable and treats everyone with respect. I don't need to go over his qualifications because that is on this website. His profile is the reason I signed up for the class. I knew with his experience and certifications, the class would be top notch. I highly recommend this class. I will be taking other classes offered by the AGA for sure.

I was very impressed with Tony during the CHL class on 05/03/15. He was professional and covered the salient points of the law within Texas. He provided assistance when necessary. Also, he told us when we were allowed to use deadly force, but emphasized that deadly force should be used as a last resort. Overall, it was a very good class and I would recommend it to anyone interested.

My wife and I recently completed the NRA Basic Pistol Shooting course together. We both grew up in homes without guns, and had never handled or shot any type of firearm. The instructor Tony and the course content were exactly what we needed to get us started. Tony is a natural teacher who immediately put us at ease. By the end of the day we felt much more aware and comfortable about handguns, and had shot several, and received a lesson in proper cleaning as well. I went on to complete the CHL course with Tony a few weeks later, with a similarly positive experience.

I have had a desire for almost twenty years to learn how to handle and fire/shoot a gun. I talked about it for years and never took action. A friend of mine asked if I was interested in taking a course and I responded with an emphatic 'YES'. I registered for the basic course which was taught by officer Tony. I was so excited and as the time drew near to attend the class, I became nervous. I began to think 'I've never touched a gun before. I don't want to be that person who becomes clumsy and goofy and can't learn because I'm too nervous'. As the class began, my nerves calmed down. Tony was professional, friendly and patient. He has a gift to teach and it is evident he loves what he does. I was able to learn and put that knowledge into practice in the same day. I overcame my fear of 'guns' and I thank Tony for sharing his passion and gift of teaching proper handling of handguns. I encourage everyone to register and attend the basics class. You may not know all you think you know.
I'm interested and planning to attend the other courses offered and obtaining a CHL.

This is an awesome class. I took this class having only shot a gun once in my lifetime. I was nervous and scared of guns period. The instructor is the greatest. I didn't think I was going to pass my shooting test. After taking this class I am comfortable with my gun now. I pass my shooting test. My wife will soon take this class.

NRA Basic Pistol Shooting Class
1/25/15

Almost 20 years ago I wanted to learn how to shoot and thought my husband was the guy to teach me. My husband is very good with a gun, he's in law enforcement and trained with a gun for years. After a couple of trips to the gun range, my gun has been parked in my closet ever since. I still wanted to learn, but did not want to go through that "experience" again.

I decided that this year was the year to try to learn how to shoot, but I have to go with someone that has a gift of teaching (no long sighs when asking to repeat what you just said) and not just the expert knowledge. After all, I had shot a gun but was still afraid of it. Not sure how to know if it was completely unloaded, etc. And I did not want to be in a class full of "cammo-yahoos" that think they know everything. I searched the internet and decided to go with Arlington Gun Academy - NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting class.

I took a girlfriend of mine with me so I would not be the only female. To my surprise there was another woman there also. Instructor Arbelaez calmed my nerves with his calmness. I felt perfectly at ease to ask questions and to not feel intimidated. He showed a great deal of patience with me. He offered a lot of encouragement to me when I was not shooting as well as the other students. I feel this was not the case with my husband/instructor even though I love him dearly.

I will definitely go back for further gun education from Mr. Arbelaez - Arlington Gun Academy. If you want a safe and non-intimidating environment to learn, this is the place.

Great instruction. We were all at different levels with the handling and shooting of a firearm. Tony was able to teach to all levels. Classroom time was informative. Great time at the range ( best I have ever shot thanks to Tony). Would and will recommend this class to anyone wanting to feel comfortable with a CHL.

 I used Arlington Gun Academy as an FFL for a conceal/carry gun I purchased online when my gun arrived I went to Arlington Gun Academy to pick it up as while doing the paperwork with Tony I asked him if he knew of any good CHL classes he told me that he offered these classes so I enrolled in a class.
The class was very rewarding and extremely thorough with handgun instruction gun law understanding broken up by a few of Tony's personal firearm experiences which were entertaining. The class was six plus hours and $80.00 and worth every penny.

Through my 60+ years I've had plenty of education in many disciplines. This training included seven years of college, Emergency Med Tech and EMT/Instructor, Private/Commercial/Instrument Pilot, and intensive multiple week executive training from Harvard Business School professors.

I attended both the Basic Handgun and the CHL courses. I was personally amazed over those two days at how adept at instructing Tony is. The extremes in the small classes went from me who had never fired a handgun before, to a grandmother concerned about safety of her family in her home, a day-care owner, and a full time police officer there to obtain his CHL.

Tony smoothly changed his teaching style to meet the experience level of each of the students. His overall mannerisms and teaching style puts him at the very top of all the instructors whom I have had.

I had a two-hour one-on-one with Tony to teach me how to shoot a pistol and I'd say it went pretty well. Tony was a personable guy and was enthusiastic about the lesson. He was clear with his instructions and wouldn't let me get away with even minor slip-ups, which I felt was appropriate. Better to learn things right the first time! He was also very down-to-Earth and never came of as condescending. 10/10, would recommend.

I took my CHL class at Arlington Gun Academy, with Tony as my instructor. I found the class very educational, professional, and well run. Tony was very patient with me, as we had a two man class, and the other guy was a Marine Marksman. Tony made me feel comfortable, informed, and prepared to take on the responsibility of being a CHL member in the near future. Highly Recommended!

I just wrapped up a great one on one instruction with Mr. Tony Arbelaez at the Shooting Gallery. After recently taking Mr. Tony's CHL class and receiving my CHL in January of 2014, I wanted to make sure I stay sharp and doing things properly with my firearm. I enjoyed Mr. Tony's CHL class so much, I figured I would reach out to him to help me.

Mr. Tony is very professional, patient and detailed with his instruction. He really took his time with me to make sure I was doing everything right.
After our first private lesson I feel a lot more confident in handling and shooting my firearm.

With so much more to learn and get better with my firearm, I look forward to more one on one instruction with Mr. Tony in the near future.
I highly recommend Mr. Tony's CHL class for anyone looking to attain their CHL and Private Instruction for anyone looking to stay sharp with handling and shooting their firearm. You will Not be disappointed and very happy that you did.

- Excellent course and instructor!  Tony's class, as well as his instruction was very engaging, and at the end of the day it was hard to believe we spent as much time as we did. I learned a great deal from basic pistol instruction and the laws that will affect me as a CHL holder. Tony is very patient, he even showed us a new way to hold and shoot our pistols that increased my score! This CHL course is well worth the time and money invested. I highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to obtain their CHL.

-Tony was a great instructor. My fiancée and I both took his course together and have almost no previous experience with firearms. He was able to teach us the basics while getting us qualified. It was both of our first times firing handguns on a range and I scored 249/250 while my fiancée scored 244/250. He went over a lot of information about how to aim and feel comfortable with the weapon and not just the rules to keep you out of trouble with the law. He also taught us how to clean a gun during one of the breaks which is not usually part of the class. Great instructor. I think I will probably take more classes over time. Thanks Tony!

12/19/13 - My experience with Tony in the Basic class was phenomenal! My husband gave me the experience as an unexpected Birthday gift. I was terrified of guns and wanted to face my fear. Tony transformed me from fearful to comfortable. I told my husband after the class I found a new hobby. Tony is a truly gifted instructor. His passion and patience translated to a very informative and enjoyable experience. I will be taking more classes with Tony and plan on getting my husband and children enrolled in classes.

- Top Notch Professional Classes. My wife and I are professionals in the Medical and IT fields and we are also veteran instructors in our given fields. We took Tony's CHL class after taking his NRA Pistol Safety Class. The instructor makes all the difference. We know what a good instructor and course is and this course was top notch. The instructor was well prepared, confident and knowledgeable. The material was comprehensive and it was delivered in a professional manner with good attention to the student regardless of gender or age. No boredom, gloss-overs or information gaps here! Not only did we enjoy the class but we learned and retained the knowledge with what seemed like a minimum of effort or difficulty. The class flowed well and was comfortable. We were so confident in the quality of the classes we took from Tony that we also enrolled our teenage sons in his NRA Pistol Safety class. Even though I am an experienced technical trainer, I am NOT a firearms instructor. I don't have the materials or experience teaching firearms to deliver this material to the same level as these classes did for me. When it comes to firearm safety, I wanted my sons to receive the best beginning I could provide. These classes would be hard to beat for any responsible person or parent looking at owning a firearm. Highly recommended.

When my wife and I attended the NRA Pistol Basics class taught by Tony, we were very impressed and satisfied with all aspects of the delivery, attention to detail and attitude presented by Tony. The class (gun range) location is easy to find and get to. The range is well maintained and a private area was reserved for the class during pistol practice. My wife and I are intelligent professionals with high standards and Tony met and exceeded them all. I am experienced in handling firearms but have been away from it for a long time so I wanted to refresh all my safety and basic gun knowledge. My wife had never fired a gun before. The class fit both of our needs beautifully. We have both also taught technical classes ourselves in our lines of work. We were delighted with the professional, respectful and direct way that Tony taught the class while also maintaining a relaxed and open atmosphere where the students all felt comfortable asking questions and contributing to the class. The class was very female respectful and friendly. The class presentation flowed well and the visual aids (slides) were well made, easy to see and supported the material well. Plenty of hands-on devices were employed throughout the class to help emphasize and support the topics. The class size was kept small so it was easy to manage and Tony could give each student the attention they deserve. I doubt you will find a better gun safety class anywhere. There simply was very little that could be improved a noticeable amount. Take this class with confidence and rest assured you will be well prepared to move forward in your future firearms training, use and ownership.

In a 10 hour classroom setting, that is pretty important! I learned a lot and understand the material and I passed the class, no problem. I would definitely recommend this class with our instructor to anyone who is in need of taking the CHL class. Very well done and thank you Tony!

Tony Arbelaez is an excellent instructor whose experience and expertise are invaluable to those new to firearms (like I was). After taking the NRA Basic Pistol Shooting Class, I know I have acquired a great foundation, as well as, the confidence necessary to handle a firearm. Mr. Arbelaez's class is interactive incorporating overheads, short films, practical hands-on: weapons handling/shooting/cleaning and question/answer sessions. He is extremely knowledgeable about weapons and takes time to assist each student throughout the class regardless of pistol or revolver type. I encourage others to take this class to acquire firearms basics. My husband, who is former military and hadn't shot in years, attended as a refresher (because I wanted him to go with me). He not only enjoyed the refresher, but appreciates that we both received the same training.

Tony was a great teacher. I highlight the word teacher because it is almost a calling to him. His classes flowed with appropriate amounts of teaching and levity. Never was any aspect of the curriculum compromised, so I felt I received the all of the course structure. Tony is a motivated and motivational teacher.

I am very happy I found Tony & Arlington Gun Academy through the TX DPS website. I highly recommend Tony as an educator of firearm safety, shooting techniques, laws & guidelines while relating them to real life situations. With his back to basics shooting instruction, I ended up being top shooter in my class! Thank you! I appreciated the small group of five, as it lent itself to more questions and openness of communication between all in our group with Tony. I was nervous going into the class, but Tony's wealth of knowledge, friendly attitude & ability to teach every ability level - I left confident, learned not just TO respect the CHL & firearms, but HOW. I will refer EVERYONE to your facility & Tony for any type of class, training & instruction. SAFETY, BASICS, RESPOND.

I'm a recently retired Veteran and very familiar with gun shooting, handling and safety. I didn't think I needed a class--I was wrong. I'm here to tell you that the course material is extremely well presented. Mr. Arbelaez is the best range safety officer I've ever shot with, hands down. He really knows what he's doing and is excellent on the range and in class. He made the whole class interesting and I was never bored. The entire staff at AGA treated me like an old friend. And that's rare these days. I highly recommend training and shooting at AGA! It is not the closest to me-but WELL worth the extra drive. Good luck-be safe!

Above all, the instructor for the CHL class, Tony was knowledgeable, friendly, direct with his instructions, and entertaining as an instructor.
For such a lengthy class, it is important to have a good, knowledgeable instructor and Tony is that. He does a great job of familiarizing you with all the Texas laws necessary for a CHL carrier to be familiar with; as well as putting those laws into understandable real-world scenarios. I fully intend to take more classes from him.

I would recommend this class to anyone who wants to actually learn both the laws regarding chl and proper handgun shooting techniques!
I thought I was a "good enough" shot prior to the course but must confess that due to the instructor's "Tony" one on one approach to the fundamentals,
I was able to attain a perfect score on the shooting portion! Though I feel the PowerPoint presentation could have been improved by moving the "you might see this later" indicator to the front of each recommended note to be taken by the class. otherwise a 10/10. Thank you Tony and I will recommend your course to my friends and family.

I just took the CHL training class with Arlington Gun Academy this past weekend. Tony was by far the most knowledgeable firearms instructor I've ever met. He presented all of the material in a clear and informative manner, he is very knowledgeable about the law and answered everyone's questions, he showed us the individual areas where we needed to improve in our shooting, and most importantly he taught us how to safely handle and store our firearms. The class was great. It did not seem like 9 hours.
Tony is the best instructor anyone could ask for. I highly recommend Arlington Gun Academy to anyone wanting to take their CHL course.

I can't wait to take another class with Tony.

Well, it was a long drive from Plano but well worth it. Tony was great! He knew soooo much about everything. He made this whole experience very enjoyable. I'm glad the class was small so he was able to spend quality time with each of us. He showed us the proper way to handle a pistol and everything necessary to fell comfortable about handling one. I for one was very nervous about it but his patience made it easier for me. I think I want to continue to practice but with a heavier pistol. I wish I had taken this class before I purchased my .38 Special. I would have known that I really need a pistol with more weight for less recoil. That .38 Special really packs a punch. I lost a nail so I can truly attest to that. Both my husband and I left feeling we learned a lot. I went home and cleaned my pistol right away. All in all, the class was exactly what we both needed to feel comfortable about owning and handling a pistol. Thanks to Tony and AGA. I know we'll continue to practice so we can get better and better at it.

As someone who has never fired a handgun before, I was a little apprehensive, but Tony was great. He explained everything very thoroughly. Not just the how, but the why of everything from stance to squeezing the trigger. Soaking all that information in helped me shoot very well from the start. His detailed instruction allowed me to recognize what mistakes I made as they happened, as well as what I needed to do to correct them. He's a great teacher, and was very patient with a group of women who were mostly new shooters.

Tony was very patient, knowledgeable, and not condescending. He covers everything and answers all your questions. I simply could not have had a better experience. I am now looking forward to practicing.

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.

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 - 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.

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,

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.

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!!

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!

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.

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.

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 License Renewal Course
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!

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!

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

NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting
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!

6/25/11 - Chief Instructor Tony was very informative in the class and was helpful on the laws and regulations about firearms.

Thanks Tony!.

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 License Course
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 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.

Basics of Pistol Shooting
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.

Basic Pistol - CHL Class - Firearms Purchase
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!!

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!!

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.
