All about Wells Firearms
Services and Training:
The core offering of Wells Firearms & Training is comprehensive firearms education, built on over 50 years of combined instructor experience. Their main services include:
- Concealed Carry Classes (CCW): They are well-known for offering initial licensing and re-certification courses for concealed carry permits.
- Basic Safety and Advanced Instruction: They provide a wide variety of training classes ranging from fundamental firearm safety and cleaning to more advanced shooting techniques.
- Hunter Safety: They facilitate hunter safety certification classes, often partnering with local conservation groups.
- Firearms Cleaning and Maintenance: They offer instruction and services for the proper cleaning and maintenance of firearms.
- Gunsmithing: The business offers gunsmithing services, including custom builds and modifications on firearms like AR-15 platforms.
Facility and Location:
The business operates out of a specific training location in Lincoln, Illinois, which serves as the venue for all their classes and services. While they may use a dedicated range for the live-fire portions of their courses, their primary function is an instructional academy and service provider, not a general-public shooting range. They moved to a dedicated location to expand their training services.
Community Engagement:
Wells Firearms & Training actively engages with the local community by sponsoring local race teams and hosting special shooting events, such as "ladies' night" events that incorporate social time and shooting simulator use.
