At The Range by Jimmy Primos in Madison, a gaggle of la-dies arrives for a conceal and carry class. Instructor Renee Mader is ready. Mader has been doing this for over six years, and she’s passionate about it. “There is a demand for quality firearms education and training. I have been very blessed to be in a position to be able to serve that need,” Mader says.

There’s no better place to train and learn in Mississippi than The Range, where a staff of qualified instructors with USCCA and NRA certifications are ready to prepare even the most novice of shooters. Anyone needing range practice can visit to experience their state-of-the-art facility that features the virtual system, Firearms Training System (FATS), which prepares gun owners and professionals with 250 real-life situations that require shoot or no-shoot decisions.
