Training

 All classes are taught or coordinated by a California DOJ Certified Firearms Safety Instructor. We keep class sizes small so every student gets real instructor time. 

Firearm Safety Courses

Foundational safety instruction covering the four universal safety rules, safe handling, loading and unloading, safe storage at home under California's 2026 secure storage law, and California-specific transport requirements. Appropriate for new gun owners and anyone who wants a proper refresher.

Introductory Handgun Classes

Hands-on fundamentals: grip, stance, sight alignment, trigger control, and safe range practice. Designed for students who are new to shooting or returning after time away.

Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC) Testing

California law requires a valid FSC for all firearm purchases, with limited exceptions. We administer the FSC test on site for customers and the public.

Safe Handling Demonstrations

Required by California law for all handgun purchases. Performed at our premises at the time of firearm pickup, in the presence of our DOJ-certified instructor.

Partnered Advanced Instruction

Through our network of partner instructors, we can connect you to defensive pistol courses, CCW qualification instruction (the California DOJ-approved 16-hour course required under SB 2), home defense, and specialty classes taught by vetted professionals.

Scheduling and pricing

All training is by appointment. Private and small-group instruction is available. Call 949-291-2986 or contact us through the Contact page to discuss your goals and schedule a session.
