Spring is finally here—and so are some of our most in-demand training opportunities of the year.

We just wrapped up our first Concealed Carry course, and it filled fast. If you’ve been thinking about getting your permit or sharpening your skills, now is the time to act—our next sessions are already booking.

New Offering: StopBox Safes Now Available

We’re offering introductory pricing for a limited time, so reach out now to secure yours before inventory tightens.

Women’s Training — High Demand, Limited Seats
Our upcoming Women on Target event at Whortlekill is officially sold out—and for good reason. These events consistently fill quickly. We have two more sessions planned for the fall, and we’ll be opening registration soon.

Even better: we’re about to launch a women-only monthly pistol clinic—a focused, repeatable training opportunity designed to build real confidence and skill. Spots will be limited, so keep an eye out for the announcement.
