Training So You Never Become A Victim

This class will start with the basics, including a very visual overview of what we call the “building blocks” or the fundamentals for accurate and safe shooting. Within this lesson, we will explain the differences between the skills required for being a good “marksman” at the range, and the skills that might be required to save your life if you are ever the subject of a violent attack.


The Men's Basic Handgun class will prepare you to be the first line of defense for yourself and those you love. This class is designed by men for men and will help equip you to be a responsibly armed citizen.


What To Expect

This is a 4-hour class. We cover information in an engaging classroom environment using real life scenarios, demonstrations, and hands on learning. The class includes live fire range time during which our instructors assist with technique, form, and provide tips and pointers along the way.


What To Bring

We suggest our students bring any items they feel they may need however, here is a short list of items we recommend our students bring:

  • Notepad and pen

  • Ammunition (can be purchased in store)

  • Handgun (optional) If you do not have a handgun, gun rentals are available at the range for an additional fee.

  • Holster or guncase for your handgun. (IWB or OWB, are both acceptable)

  • Hearing and eye protection

  • Closed toe shoes

  • Water bottle

If you have questions on gun rentals, ammunition purchasing, or anything else on this list, contact us here.
