There is a lot of really good training available in Chicagoland.
STTG has very experienced instructors and has been providing LE and open enrollment training for longer than most in the area:

Sorry to hear that it didn't work our, OLNS.
There are some additional recommendations for revolver-specific training in this thread, though they may require some travel:

I've not had the benefit of training with Scott Reitz, but he has an excellent reputation in the training community, and the folks I know who've had classes with him have been extremely satisfied. His cv can be...
I think I was in that class..
Carried simultaneously, in a dual SOB? Around 2005 at BCSD?
I'd completely forgotten about that. Thanks for the grin, Jeff.
I had the experience of missing some fairly large targets at close range when running a COF in an Awerbuck class using very tight-patterning buckshot. It was a valuable experience and helped me see the importance of knowing where my particular load patterns at various distances and how that...
Interesting; thanks for the replies.
JN01 - please let us know if you're able to find a system that more closely replicates an actual Glock trigger. Thanks.
For a little less than the cost of the reset kit and laserlyte barrel, you could pick up a polymer-slide SIRT pistol and have a dedicated dryfire unit.
Lots of SIRT reviews out there; I've got one and like it a lot.

VooDoo,
I see you're in Illinois. One of DR's instructors, Paul Sharp, is in Illinois. I've trained a bit with him and he's very good. I should note that Paul is probably not fairly described as a "point shooting" guy, but rather a "sight continuum" guy - - which seems to be true of a lot...

The best source for an airline's rules on this sort of thing is their contract of carriage. United's is available here:

The popup quoted in the OP started appearing in the last couple months and, on its face, is...
Thanks 9mm. I currently live in the heart of a very metropolitan area :D. We now have access to a range that allows us to practice properly, but in the decade or so that I've been doing this, we've bounced around a lot of ranges and that's not always been the case.
I know at least a couple people who've held off on formal training because they didn't have a venue available to subsequently practice what they'd learned in class. While you can certainly do a lot of what you see in classes dry at home, I understand this line of thinking. I held off on...
I guess my experience is a little different. After having been on the wrong end of a skilled user of a strobing handheld during an indoor force on force class, I promptly purchased one and began working with it. The general consensus of folks in that class was that the strobe offered some...
I posted links to news accounts of six different defensive knife uses - from just my particular area in the last couple years - in Post #71 of the other thread. :) Several of them were against unarmed attackers. It happens in real life regularly.
One of the frustrating things about...
Dude - they stopped the fight. We don't know why the attackers broke off and we don't know what would have happened if they hadn't. What we do know, is that the folks in the stories I posted used small blades effectively as self defense tools.
We don't expect instant incapacitation from...
Man - this thread's all over the place.
Straying into the validity of biomechanical cutting is just going to make this thread longer than it needs to be.
Defensive knife use stops fights. In the real world. Sometimes against unarmed attackers, even...
Janich does a pretty good job of articulating the concepts behind using small blades (i.e. folders) defensively in his MBC program:

Greg Ellifritz just posted an excellent article on this topic at the link below. I had a chance to train with Greg last summer and got a lot out of it:
