Firearm & Defensive Training

With two fully equipped classrooms for specialized firearm and defensive training sessions, we conduct all courses entirely on site at our Shooting Range and Training Center in Columbus, Ohio. Training in Basic & Advanced Handgun and Rifle Courses, prioritizing personal defense both at home and away, are available and taught by experienced NRA and Ohio Peace Officer Commission certified firearms instructors.

Our Instructors make safety and quality instruction their priority, while making you feel comfortable in class and on the range. The state-of-the-art facility allows downrange dynamic training involving movement and the use of cover, not common to indoor ranges where learning is limited to shooting between stalls.
