Fall Intro and CCW classes are now on the calendar and webstore.  Pistol, Carbine and Shotgun Classes for the Fall Season are coming too.

We a are now offering a one day shotgun course.  Several customers have asked that I put one together.

The shotgun is such a popular weapon in home defense and well as sport shooting.  Many police departments issue the weapon because it is so versatile.  Yes, the sound of a shotgun being “RACKED” is a great deterant, but have you ever thought about what you would do if you had to use it.  This course will give you the basics needed to safely and effectively use your shotgun in self defense and other situations.  Many of the skills taught are the same taught to our law enforcement officer.   If you are ready to learn how to defend yourself with a shotgun, sign up now.
