Report
I recently inherited my grandfather's 1941 Colt Woodsman and never having been a gun owner I had no idea what to do with it. After obtaining my firearms ID I signed up for a Basic Pistol pistol course with Sepulveda. The class was informal but thorough and Kharis was kind enough to give me a tutorial on how to use and clean my Woodsman after the range portion of the class. Highly personalized service, couldn't recommend more enthusiastically!
