This course was my first exposure to M16-M4-AR15 technical issues and problem solving and was very basic but thorough. Ken Elmore, of Specialized Armament, is an excellent instructor and is very clear in conveying information. He will think nothing of telling you to STOP if he see's or hear's you doing something wrong. The class had LEO and civilian students so there was a mix of different levels of experience, Ken acknowledged all levels and conducted a good class. He covered complete dis-assembly of the M16/ M4/ AR15, he had one for each student, parts identification and re-assembly. He also covered trouble shooting how to diagnose it and correct it. The manual provided as part of the class is easy to read and comprehensive.
As a class we had to completely take the weapon apart 4 times. 2 of the times all the small parts that could fit in a cup went in, shook it up, emptied it on the table, put it back together. Ken is very engaging with broad knowledge of many life experiences, his knowledge of European history was surprising.
Ron Flower at the Allentown Police Academy was the on site person and the facility was perfect for the size of class.
This was an excellent class and recommend it to anyone interested in developing AR platform skills.
Thanks Ken, Thanks Ron
