Basic Handgun Training

Most armed guards will opt to carry a handgun since it is more compact and easily concealed than a rifle. In basic handgun training, we will cover weapon safety, weapon retention, and relevant state and federal laws regarding carrying a firearm. We will also spend some time on the range for target practice and drills. We encourage you to bring your own weapon and ammo to get comfortable using and securely carrying it.

Basic Rifle Training

Basic rifle training will cover similar topics to handgun training, including weapon safety and retention. Different laws govern handguns and rifles, so we will cover relevant legal considerations for your chosen weapon. We’ll also review the parts of your rifle, loading and unloading, and how to securely carry your gun before hitting the range for hands-on training.
