HSS International???

[FJR]

Anyone have experience or heard anything about HSS International? I'm planning on taking their Urban/Rural Sniper class this summer (beginners class/2 days). Thanks in advance.

I busted one of their instructors for claiming to be a SEAL. He was fired. I would say check every claim by anyone BEFORE attending.

Looking at their site, I dont find any instructor names or credentials on there. The "About Us" link basically says that they are a group of SWAT cops who put together a training company. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as there are some SWAT guys out there who are true badasses, but you need to know where these guys got THEIR training. What certifications do they have? Certified by who? Is the training approved by your department? Will these guys be able to testify in court about your training as credible subject matter experts, should the need arise? These are just a few of the questions you need to be asking before you pick a school to attend. Do your homework. Check their backgrounds out. The lack of instructor information would be a red flag to me, but doesn't necessarily mean anything bad.
