Private & Group Instruction · By Appointment
Certified instruction for new gun owners, concealed carry holders, and competitive shooters who want to handle a firearm with confidence, discipline, and skill.
Every course is taught one-on-one or in small groups at an approved range near you. No storefront, no waiting room — just focused, professional instruction.
Covers safe handling, storage, loading/unloading, range etiquette, and the legal basics of firearm ownership. Ideal for first-time gun owners or anyone before their first range visit.
Meets the instructional requirements many states require for a concealed carry permit, plus real-world guidance on carrying safely and responsibly day to day.
Builds on the fundamentals with drawing from concealment, malfunction clearing, shooting on the move, and decision-making under time pressure.
One-on-one coaching for shooters training for USPSA, IDPA, Steel Challenge, or precision rifle competition. Stage breakdown, movement efficiency, and match-day strategy.
A non-firing safety course for families, covering what to do if a firearm is found, safe storage in the home, and age-appropriate safety conversations.
Don't see what you need? Private lessons can be built around any goal — long-range precision, home defense, corporate/small-group training, or range-day mentorship.
I'm an NRA-certified firearms instructor with a background in competitive pistol shooting, including USPSA and Steel Challenge matches. I started offering training because too many new gun owners get handed a firearm with no real instruction — and too many experienced shooters plateau without good coaching.
I don't run a storefront. Every session is by appointment, one-on-one or in small groups, at a range that fits your location and skill level. That means more direct attention, flexible scheduling, and training built around your actual goals — not a fixed classroom curriculum.
"I'd never fired a handgun before my first lesson. I left feeling confident instead of intimidated — exactly what I needed."
— Angela R., Safety Fundamentals
"The coaching tightened up my draw time and stage planning more in two sessions than a year of shooting on my own."
— Marcus T., USPSA Competitor
"Patient, clear, and genuinely safety-focused. Booked a second session for my spouse right after."
— David K., Concealed Carry Prep
No. Loaner firearms and ammunition can be arranged in advance for most courses — just let me know when booking.
I don't operate a fixed location. Sessions are held at approved, insured shooting ranges chosen based on your location and the course type — classroom-only courses can also be held at a private meeting space.
The Concealed Carry Preparation course is built around common state requirements, but requirements vary by state. I'll confirm what your state requires before your session so the certificate you receive is valid for your application.
Yes — small group, family, and corporate training sessions are available. Reach out with your group size and goals for a custom quote.
