Covered 6

My boyfriend bought me a private lesson to learn handgun basics. Our instructor Jeanne was absolutely amazing. In addition to gun safety and shooting basics, she emphasized tactical training for real-​world scenarios in which you might need to use the skills you’re acquiring. I felt safe, comfortable, and informed throughout the entire day, and both the classroom and range time were well-​paced. I simply can’t recommend Jeanne and Covered Six enough. As a complete novice, I was more than impressed by the professionalism and overall inclusive and responsible atmosphere created by this company. You will not be disappointed. Can’t wait to take another class! Thank you Jeanne!

Over the years I’ve taken several classes on weapons and protection at C6.
Always is worth the money and the time.
These folks have a wealth of knowledge they will pass to you.
They have some very unique ideas and products only offered here.
I will be setting up more training soon.
Please if you or anyone you know needs firearms training. Seek them out.
They will Cover your 6.

Won’t find a better place for your ccw class locally. You will Leave with way more knowledge than you ever thought 0possible.

Great time, great instructors. Wife and I had a blast with C6. I will be back soon for the advanced training.

I am an NRA instructor and took a two day home defense course with these guys. It was good (Better than most) and well done. It was NOT an NRA course and not as detailed, but was more hands on, but that is OK. Courses serve a purpose and as a home defense course this is a good one. They offers an excellent experience and the staff was knowledgeable.

This place is as good as it gets. The facilities, service and instructors are all top notch. We set out clear goals at the beginning of the weekend and by Sunday afternoon felt that we met them and then some. If you want tactical training from an expert crew in a challenging and fun environment, you won’t be disappointed. I can’t think of anything else except when I can get back to train with them again.

Awesome experience! Spent the weekend with them and learned as much mentally as physically. Tactics training on Saturday and a day at the range on Sunday. We had 4 guys and they tailored the weekend to our desires. Limits were tested but we were always safe.
Would love to explain the weekend but there was just to much excitement and variety to list it all. Saturday’s fun at the Covered Six location involved tactical training, air soft fights, amazing simulations involving interaction, and just awesomeness. Sunday’s fun at the range included glocks, rifles, shotguns, etc. Again, always felt safe
while constantly being test.
Long story short… YES! Call them, start an adventure. They will tailor anything to your needs then challenge you physically and mentally to make you stronger and more confident.
(They also do work/​school trainings, security, and workplace safety. My work’s security and HR department will definitely be contacting them soon!)

I just completed their NRA basic handgun instructor class. They are an outstanding crew. I am greatly looking forward to getting back there to get more training.

I had been looking into handgun training, rifle courses, & self defense instruction at every facility in the greater LA area for some time. Covered 6 by far had the most to offer, the best instructors who actually can back up what they teach due to their own military & law enforcement professions, & were reasonably priced. I am a petite female & the tactics Chris & Robert teach can be implemented & utilized by someone my size & I can use the skills against an enemy or attacker 2 – 3 times bigger than me. This company isn’t just firearms instruction… its EVERYTHING that encompasses self defense. I have finished every class I have taken from them & left with extreme confidence, real world knowledge, & skills to protect myself, friends, family, & my home. Every one should have the type of training Covered 6 offers for their own protection & peace of mind. I highly recommend them & the owners are some of the best most respected & trustworthy men I have met in my time in California & in my career. COVERED 6 IS THE BEST!!!

I was looking for a basic handgun safety course for my 16 year old son. I came across an ad for Covered 6 and decided to give them a call. After speaking with Rob on the phone, I felt comfortable that the class he offered, was perfect for my son. Today was the class and my son can’t stop talking about his experience today. The morning was dedicated to classroom type safety training and etiquette. Safety was really emphasized which I thought was very important. The afternoon was spend at an outdoor range. I went along to observe. This is where my son shot a gun for the first time in his life. They have a great team of instructors that were there giving them advice and helping him improve his skills. I cannot express how great this class was. What a wonderful staff. It is a small class with practically one on one attention. This is a top notch professional company that I will use again. I might even take the class next time. My son wants to continue on with his training with Covered 6. I was a great experience that he will never forget.

I recently took the basic carbine class. I had such a great experience with the Covered 6 pistol class, I figured I wouldn’t be disappointed with the carbine class. I figured right! It was an awesome day! I learned a lot and had a blast! Robert, Chris and Dave are all great guys, and great instructors! The class was awesome, worth every penny plus some! They covered everything from gun parts to positions to shooting technique. It was as thorough as I could have hoped for. I would recommend to anybody interested in learning their carbine. I can’t wait for the next class!

This review is for the basic and intermediate handgun training classes and not EP or law enforcement training:
I sought out firearm training for home defense purposes and I thoroughly researched companies before deciding on Covered 6. I wanted to find a facility that had experienced instructors who could teach from a place of deep knowledge that only comes through years of personal experience in law enforcement — it’s one thing to be a great instructor on a range and to be able to perfectly hit a target, but it’s quite another to be an instructor who has actually been in combat situations in his professional career. Such an instructor was the type of person whom I wanted to teach me how to shoot a gun.
From the moment I walked through their doors, Robert and Chris instantly made me feel confident in my decision to train with Covered 6. I was the only female in the basic handgun class — and the only person who did not own a firearm — but whether in the classroom or on the range, every question I asked was answered respectfully and intelligently. I was neither talked down to nor «babied» as a female, and because of this, my confidence grew and I was able to absorb much more information. I learned (and enjoyed) so much in the basic firearm class that I went on to take additional training with Covered 6.
In addition to outstanding instruction, Robert and Chris made themselves available to me for any questions I had and also to help me decide which handgun, ear protection, etc. to purchase. They were never trying to sell me a particular product, but rather to help me have the proper equipment that I will be most successful using. I have found Covered 6 to be knowledgeable, personable, reputable, and will definitely return to them for future training.

I have been shooting for about 6 months and I thought I had all the basics down. I have a friend who said you should take a class from the guys at Covered 6. He said Robert and Boyan are trained professionals and you will get a lot out of it. Well I went to the class yesterday 4-​13-​2013 and it was the smartest shooting decision I have ever made. They started with a classroom setting in which we learned the basics of proper gun rules, now I heard them all before but the way they presented them made them make even more sense. We then proceeded to the wharehouse were we learned how to draw from a holster, load a gun etc. Again I knew the basics of that but now I understand why things are done. We then proceeded to the range, there we all got personal one on one instruction. With me, they found I was griping the gun wrong causing my rounds to go down and to the right. Within a few hours I was shooting straight, understanding the right way to approach the targets I was aiming at. I cant wait to practice what I have been taught and advance to the next class. This is the type of training every gun owner should take

I just attended a covered 6 tactical class. I am former law enforcement (LAPD). I have to say that these guys know their… stuff. As an ex cop, we learned some basic tactical scenario type techniques in the academy and virtually nothing in the field. Covered 6 goes far beyond. It was very worthwhile and taught by experts whom are either former or current law enforcement themselves.
On a side note, before writing this post, I read the previous post. This guy’s a moron. He blames covered 6 for not being able to find work. It sounds like to me that he was expecting Covered 6 to cure whatever numerous deficiencies he has that is actually preventing him from obtaining employment. Covered 6 does not guaranty employment. They give a certificate that you completed their tactical training course. There is no State certified course available, so the certification, simply shows potential or current employers that you have had extra expert tactical training. The first sentence out of the reviewer’s mouth is that most of the class was military or police. Well, that says it all. He has ‘Law Enforcement Envy.’ And he felt small… that’s all… and he blamed the company. Law enforcement and Military attending the course shows you how good it is, because we don’t attend classes that don’t work for obvious reasons…
Also, the company offers beginning gun classes and self protection for the home… so don’t think you have to be a cop of Army Ranger to get some great training…
My wife is attending the basic gun class and home protection as I write this review…
