Trainers

Our trainers are high-quality individuals who are passionate about teaching. It isn’t enough to just be good with guns, a trainer has to be able to share that knowledge and help their students understand, apply, and engage with the material. Our trainers emphasize safety and peace. There is no place for big egos when it comes to guns.
