Anybody wanting to get their CCW in Orange County needs to introduce themselves to Mike Duda at Elite CCW and Firearm Training. You won't be disappointed!"
"I had my first gun training course with Michael at Elite CCW Training; Michael is very knowledgeable and patient. After finishing the classroom portion of his course, then to the firing range, I had a great time and can't wait to learn more about gun handling and safety."
"Michael Duda is the best instructor I have ever had for my initial CCW and my renewal His expertise between his military experience and especially his law enforcement experience is unparalleled. The class I took in May was fast moving, thorough and not monotonous at all. I learned a lot of things that I did not know and was kept up to date on new laws governing the carrying and use of my firearm. I whole heartedly recommend Mike Duda as your trainer, your instructor and a friend. I’m proud to call Mike my friend."
