Police Defensive Firearm Training
Mission: "Courage, Confidence and Proficiency Through Training"
Philosophy
Provide advanced and in-service training in basic safety, marksmanship and tactics to police, military and security in the use of the carbine, pistol, or shotgun firearms platforms. I am an NRA Law Enforcement Division Staff Instructor in multiple disciplines. Experienced training hundreds of police officers, corrections, military and nuclear security all over the US since 1995, my background includes training received from US military personnel from NAVSPECWAR, US Army SF, and Special Mission Units. Dedicated to providing solid grounding in the basics with Christian integrity.
Why?
The safety of one’s self, colleagues and community are a solemn responsibility. Anyone who carries a gun for a living has a moral obligation to be safe, proficient, and tactically sound as well as asking themselves the hard questions of “when, where, and could I” use a firearm in defense of self or others.
