Has anyone seen this offer?
https://www.frontsight.com/free-gun.asp
And more importantly - has anyone taken any Front Sight training? I know of their trainings, but don't know anyone personally who has taken a course from them. What do you think of the training and the deal?

Re: Front sight training - and gun
I can't comment on any of the Front Sight "deals" that are offered now or in the past. I am not a member of the organization.
I did attend training there in December of 2006 and had a blast. I am a graduate of their 4-day defensive handgun program. I learned some things that could save my life and would go back if the opportunity presented itself.

Re: Front sight training - and gun
That is a great deal! Full disclosure - I AM a Front Sight First Family member along with my wife and daughter. I have taken the 4 Day Defensive Handgun class twice - and throughly enjoyed it and the training I received. I won't expound on it any more here, but if anyone wants to discuss it privately, feel free to email me.
It's a 3-4 day drive for us Texans, but to me, it's my vacation for the year. I look forward to going every year, and will be going in May this year.
Regards,
James

Do some people actually pay $500 for a one day concealed carry class?

Kinnylee and I left with a mini van full of gas, a healthy supply of cupcakes and pulled onto the Las Vegas strip the next afternoon. I must add that the combat mindset seminar presented in many of the classes is absolutely top shelf stuff.
