We have finally moved into our new facility in Sharpsburg! Thank you everyone for your patience as I realize several courses have been pushed out and rescheduled due to getting settled in. Our training "room" is still a work in progress. With that said, all training will be done at or by request with weekend and week night availability. During our hiatus, I did a lot of researching, and hid in the shadows and just watched things. What I found were several things; everyone and their brother are becoming or have become instructors with no legitimate background or knowledge other than "I own a firearm..." (Some of which I am not completely sure how that is even possible, but I guess that's how things work now, no questions asked and forget about the past...). My point to all of this is, I refuse to be grouped into that train wreck. When it goes sideways, and trust me it will, people will unnecessarily get hurt because an instructor either gave false information or flat out didn't provide the knowledge or training because they themselves lacked both. I've said it before and I'll say it again, you get what you pay for! But hey, my 24 years of REAL experience and those out there with many more than that who actually provide good substantial, retainable instruction are over priced and just trying to make money.

So, anyone who is interested in any NRA course, Maryland required course, or precision long range course reach out via email or FB messenger and we will get you set up.

To all the good instructors who have been doing this for years with a lifetime of experience and knowledge behind their presentations, keep your head up and keep moving forward it will eventually come around full circle.

To all the half-assed instructors, think about what you will do when you get that subpoena because one of your students had to use their firearm and now you're being called to testify in the case..... How well do you know the laws in Maryland? Did you give them the proper instruction on how or when to brandish or discharge their weapon? Hell, do you even know yourself? Did you require them to complete an approved MSP course of fire? If so can you prove it!

I hope this post has not only gotten the wheels turning for possible students but also instructors, it's actually sad to see where this has gone over the last 2 years.

We are looking for a working wood stove, does not have to be pretty, but must be usable as is. I will gift 2 totally free wear and Carry courses to anyone who has one setting around and would want to get rid of it (a $500 value).

Here is the latest from MSP regarding SB0001

So I'm thinking of offering a course that will encompass the entire spectrum, it would be a 32 hour course which would consist of 2 consecutive weekends, 8 hours a piece on both Saturdays and Sundays.

Said course would exceed the minimum requirements for a Maryland Wear and Carry as well as provide a basics to defensive handgun portion, a basic fist aid / CPR certification under the Red Cross as well as basic field trauma. There would be a 500 round course of fire broken up over several defensive stages to include reactive targets, moving to and from cover while firing under stress, and utilizing cover effectively.

Haven't decided on a course fee yet as I would be bringing in a few good friends to assist who have specialized knowledge and creditials on first aid and trauma areas.

I need input, what are your thoughts? Suggestions, likes, dislikes, I'm open to them all.

Please don't forget along with all of our courses, we are certified Cerakote applicators and will have all of the equipment set up at the new location, and believe me there is absolutely nothing that cannot be cerakoted, from sunglasses and yeti's to automotive parts. Unfortunately no gunsmithing yet as the FFL process has become mind numbing and will take a while to receive, however it will be available in the future.

Tonight I received an email requesting info about Wear and Carry training. At the completion of the emailed conversation the sender inquired why my price was what it was and if there was any negotiation. To be honest I don't blame them, our economy sucks right now and I am usually the same way. Here's the thing, I've said this over and over again, you get what you pay for! Yes there are instructors currently running classes for $198.00 or less, what is their background? Do they help with the application process? Can you call them if you have questions after the course is completed? Will you feel completely comfortable, confident and proficient when carrying after completing their course? I can answer those questions for you but I'll just say this, after completing our course, you have the knowledge, the training, the confidence and the proficiency to safety and effectively carry your firearm! You will also receive continued assistance if needed no matter what the case. Each student is provided my personal cell phone number that is on 24/7. We also assist with and guide you thru the entire process of applying for your Wear and Carry. Not to mention our 25 years of proven experience in a combination of competition, law enforcement, and government contracting. Would you half-ass the break job on your car and pray that they work when you need them or would you make sure it was done correctly, ensuring the safety of yourself and your family ultimately eliminating that extra fear and uncertainty in an already stressful situation?

March 4th and 5th Wear and Carry course DOES NOT meet the requirements for Armed Security or Special Police certification in Maryland. Those courses are held privately or by request and all students MUST be sponsored by a licensed Agency within the State of Maryland and provide a signed letter of request and approval from said agency prior to being accepted into the course.
Thank you for your understanding.

Additionally,
Day 2 of each course ran will be available for anyone in need of a renewal recertification. Renewal recertification cost -$100 (does not include ammo or firearm).
