Today was a really good day! I had the pleasure of completing my CWP class/training Champion Defense Shooting Complex & Sportsman's Club! Jay Harris and his staff teach in a way that is thorough, simple and fun! I left with quality education and more confidence in myself. Proud to say that I’m a product of Champion Defense ??.10/10 Recommend!

I absolutely recommend Jay and his wonderful staff at Champion Defense! Especially if you're new to using/carrying a weapon such as myself! They know ALL things gun and more so gun safety. The classroom training was so informative yet fun! At the class I took, we also received information on human trafficking which was an eye opener as well. I was super nervous about the shooting range portion(which is included) but by the time I left, I was much more confident on how to handle and shoot my weapon! I'm excited about returning soon to practice more on my aim and accuracy! Thank you again Jay, Drew, Sidi(Sarge?) and the range staff for sharing your knowledge! God Bless!?

Class was fun, you will learn a lot and the environment makes you feel comfortable. I was nervous coming in as this was my first time, but everything changes as you get to know your instructor and the people around you. Definitely happy!

Champion Defense is THE place to go for classes and shooting! Jay Harris and his team (Aaron, Dee, Alex, Ty, and more!) were so so amazing and always make my friends and I feel welcome. The first time I went here, I was completely inexperienced, yet they put my nerves at ease and gave me plenty of instruction and pointers helping me improve my shooting. Each time we have returned, we’ve always been met with great customer service from an amazing staff! I will definitely be coming back for the CWP class in the future.

Jay and his team are the best! I had never shot before going to the range this past weekend. Jay was so good at explaining everything I needed to know on how to safely handle a firearm. Definitely recommend going to Champion Defense, very good people with a lot of knowledge on firearms!

I took the CWP course with this company and it was a grade "A" experience from the time I arrived until the time I left. The instructor was extremely thorough in his explanation of respect for the weapon and laws governing my carry responsibilities. I am prior military with weapons handling experience, but I have never shot as precise as I did on Jay's range. I attribute that with his dedication to teaching with excellence. If you want to get your CWP, or simply just want a quality range to visit, you gotta head over to Champion Defense in Columbia, SC. Thanks Jay!

Jay and his team are the best! Everyone is patient, passionate, and knowledgeable about all things shooting. I've been out to Champion Defense several times for classes, and there is nowhere else I'd rather go.

If you are a South Carolina resident and you are interested in weapon knowledge and receiving your CWP this is definitely the location you need to visit. Mr. Jay the instructor is extremely cool! The class is long but he keeps you entertained. He teaches all the proper ways on handling and knowing your weapons, self defense tips and much more. However the most excited part of the class is when you go to the range !! This class give you so much confidence! I can’t wait to take another class and meet all other instructors At Champion! Thank you so much Mr. Jay!

This class was amazing! I have been around weapons my entire life and a weapons instructor for a few years now. I enjoyed every minute of this course! I learned things and sparked my excitement for teaching again! I can not wait to enroll in some more of his classes! Safety was #1! So much so, that I want my young daughter attend some of their courses. Everyone was treated with respect, no matter the experience level! They always had a smile! Thank you so much for an amazing day! ?

Jay is awesome! I had no experience with guns prior to his class, and he made sure I was comfortable and able to use one safely by the end. He made the class funny and engaging, so we did not have to sit through a boring lecture. Could not recommend his class more!
