We are a full-service shop offering sales, training and consulting in self-defense. We are certified instructors in the Judicious Use of Deadly Force by Civilians as well as all handguns, rifles and shotguns used for civilian self-defense.
We can help you select the proper gun and accessories for your sport shooting or self-defense. We will source these, either new or pre-owned, and help you acquire them in a timely fashion. After acquisition, we will instruct you in the skills needed and to train you in their proper use.
We are firm believers in “With Rights, Come Responsibilities”. Our training always includes discussions of the possible legal ramifications in the Use of Deadly Force. We believe in the documentation of training and proof of prior knowledge to aid you in court defensibility in the aftermath of a defensive use of force.
