National & World Champion Shooter and YOUR Personal Firearms Trainer...

Let face it, only Performance Counts. And unlike some firearms trainers (whose qualifications to teach are merely a list of classes they've attended :rolleyes: ) my shooting accomplishments and those of my Fist-Fire Instructors prove that my system works "as good or better" than anything the Top Shooters are using today. Yet it blends seamlessly with modern Mixed Martial Arts fighting techniques. That's why it's being endorsed by leading MMA experts and why it's being called "THE Martial Art of Handgunning". Here is the Fist-Fire training model:

Please Note: The entire system of Fist-Fire is based upon the foundation of Level 1 (Guard, Partial & Full Extension shooting positions). Everyone (no matter who they are) must start out at Level 1 and work their way up through the system.


FIST-FIRE Level 1 & Tutorial Classes

Course Description: Level 1 classes are ALWAYS taught on Day 1 (the 1st day of the scheduled class). After that you can come back for Tutorials. And because I own my own range and have numerous CQB bays, I can separate the students based upon their skill and knowledge of the Fist-Fire system. I will then teach to the needs of the class (just like they do in any Martial Arts gym).

Length of Class: I offer 1 to 5 Day Courses (Levels 1-6)

Start Time: Classes start at 10:00AM and usually run until 4:00 PM

Equipment Required: Safety eyeglasses; ELECTRONIC ear protection MANDATORY; a sturdy waist belt; a concealment holster, 3-mags with 2-mag pouches; a concealment garment; a serviceable and safe handgun with (300) rounds of ammo MINIMUM (NO HOLLOW POINTS). Note: Any and all equipment (including guns) can be rented from us with prior notice.

Tuition: $250 per student, per day

Class Size: 3-4 students MAXIMUM* :cool:

* For larger groups I can bring in more Instructors with advance notice.

Tactical Shooting Academy Home Range Info...

Start Time: Classes start promptly at 10:00AM and run until 4:00PM

Bad Weather: We have covered firing areas so we will shoot rain or shine.

Course Tuition: Tuition is $250 per person, per day.

Payment Policy: Payment in FULL is required within (30) days of scheduled class date.

Refund Policy: Because I hold very small classes, they often fill up and others are turned away. Therefore, if you cannot make the class on the scheduled date, your tuition is non refundable once inside the (30) day window.

Lunch: Lunch is $5 per day payable at the door. We put out a Deli tray so you can make your sandwiches the way you like them. We also have fresh fruits, chips, snacks & soft drinks. Free spring water is supplied all day. :cool:

During the winter months (Nov. 1st - March 1st) we do not schedule any firearms training classes. The reason why is that we cannot rely on the weather. It could be 70 degrees or it could be 40 degrees and snowing (been there, seen it! :( )...

So, instead we take it week by week based upon the 7 day forecast (which is usually pretty accurate). :cool:

If you would like to take a class over the winter (at no cost or obligation) simply please email me and let me know what day(s) are good for you. I will then keep you informed (via email) as to what days I am available and as to what days we can train (whether permiting).

Contact me a info@TacticalShooting.com or call me at 757-357-9881.

Thanks and Happy Holidays! :)
