FrontSight is now offering a free training course that would ordinarily cost $2,000 to any law-abiding, responsible citizens of Chicago and or its suburbs who wish to attend.

Note that this course is not in Illinois, and travel expenses are not included. However it is still a pretty good deal…
I went to the Ignatius Piazza web site referenced above and did not see any free firearms training. The closest I could find cost $3000.
Gene,
This article mentioning the free training is about 2 years old, so if you're no longer seeing the offer then I would guess that it has expired…
