Great Teacher, he explains everything good and make sure you understands the material and laws of owning a weapon.

I have over the years received all of my training (and certification thereafter) via having Cliff as my instructor.
This includes my HQL years ago, my initial carry permit and I just signed up for my renewal course with him.
After signing up I knew I needed to provide positive feedback for others whilst showing support for a great instructor.
See you in class!

Highly recommend taking the Wear and Carry class here. Mr. Owen keeps the class interesting, makes sure everyone is on the same page before moving on, and keeps the energy high throughout. You won't be bored and you will learn. Range day was well done, I went from being nervous to having a good time. I will definitely be back when it's time for renewal.
Also a great FFL. Appreciate the help over the last year!

Very well planned and executed course by the instructor. i was not bored or lost during the class and feel very confident in my well being during the up coming range day. Cliff is very knowledgeable and made sure that the class knew they would be able to contact him even after the course for questions or concerns about what they learned and for more education.

I recently took the wear & carry class and Cliff is very knowledgeable. He was patient with me at the range and made sure I understood everything. He put me at ease and made me feel comfortable with shooting. He also answered any questions I asked. If you’re searching for a class, look no further. This is the one for you. I’ll be taking more classes in the future.

Man!! This guy knows his stuff. I love the fact that he was hands on with each of his students. Mr. Owens made sure that handling a firearm the right way was instilled in us before his course was over with. Made sure we handled the firearm safely. I would definitely recommend DPS!!! Thank youOh one more thing, I will be going back for my Utah permit.Maurice

I took the Maryland Wear & Carry course through DPS recently and it was a great experience. We had 2 evenings of zoom meetings that I was able to attend from the comfort of my home. Cliff is obviously an expert in this field and informed us on firearm safety and Maryland gun laws. He was professional and kept the course interesting by adding stories from his own personal experiences and by showing videos (mostly of what not to do). The range day was held at a private range and Cliff was very thorough with his instruction on how to safely load a magazine, hold the firearm, sight, and shoot. I haven’t been around handguns much prior to this class, but now thanks to Cliff, I am less intimidated and feel more confident. I look forward to taking his Beyond the Permit course for more instruction. Not only was it a great experience, DPS was significantly more affordable than any other local company offering the same course. I would highly recommend DPS and Cliff to anyone interested in their Maryland HQL or W&C permits.

Great class would recommend anyone looking for handgun training. Call Cliff at DPS and have him train you. He will show the correct ways to properly handle your firearm so you can be safe at all times. He will show you how to load your magazine. If your a first time shooter he will answer your questions and show you the correct and safe way.

I took the MD wear and carry permit class with Cliff and he was a very good instructor. He is very knowledgeable and patient with his class. He knew the honest answer to the questions asked along with being honest about the MD laws. He kept his class interesting and engaging throughout the two separate nights. I plan on taking the Utah permit class through him because he is very trusting and knowledgeable about multiple topics.

Took his class in July. Wife is taking it now (DEC). Training is top notch. Have also used his transfer service, $30.00 includes MSP fee. Wife bought my Christmas present from him. He provides great services all around. Always recommend him when people ask.

LOWEST PRICE FOR WEAR AND CARRY PERMIT.If you go anywhere else, you're wasting hundreds of dollars to the various scalpers that have popped up!Clifford is highly experienced and funny! He administers the class via Zoom and a weekend range test. He is flexible with schedules, and clearly takes pride in making sure students understand Maryland carry laws along with general firearm safety.I look forward to recommending his services to anyone!
