Train Smart Everytown Firearms Training

Everytown's new firearm training classes are about as honest and realistic as the journalism produced by its paid staffers at the Trace. In fact, the amount of anti-gun propaganda produced by Everytown's Train Smart instructors may actually exceed the anti-gun propaganda shoveled out by the kids at the Trace. Suffice it to say, it's a close race.

The fun began with a 1.5-hour video class called "The Smart Guide to Buying a Gun." Cost was $20. Students can take the class live or on-demand. There are two additional classes, including an 8-hour trip to the range, which you watch from home.

Nellis and Jake were the instructors. None of Everytown's trainers provide their last names, which is very telling. Most real instructors provide all of their training and experience in addition to their full names.

Nellis, according to her bio, is "a mother and advocate, she is committed to building safer environments and believes that all children deserve a future free from gun violence."

Jake's bio is about as bad: "As an instructor, Jake strives to create welcoming spaces where everyone can learn to feel safer and more confident with firearms."
