Exactly. I have a carbine class on Saturday, and then I'm taking a Sentinel Concepts class later in October. I think the information is just out there for people more than it used to be. When I picked up my first AR, it seemed like everyone was just watching Magpul's the Art of the carbine, a few years later and they had classes all over from former Ranger Seal Delta Snipers. I giggle at this because I was first taught by an FBI tactical team guy, who was a Ranger at some point and I've been trying to unlearn his bad habits on pistol for the last few years.
I think it has become more standardized, as in most people know the ranges that host, and with social media, you can follow who interests you fairly easily. That said, there is quite a few instructors out there, and it can be a bit overwhelming if you start wading into the training waters.
Dr. Carter G. Woodson, “History shows that it does not matter who is in power or what revolutionary forces take over the government, those who have not learned to do for themselves and have to depend solely on others never obtain any more rights or privileges in the end than they had in the beginning.”
