Tom is very knowledgeable and provides great insight on CCW training." - Dr. Jeffry Phillips, LAPD Commanding Officer
- Majority of initial training (12 hours) and all 8 hours of renewal training at private outdoor range, not the classroom, to learn advanced, realistic shooting skills, that can't be taught at public indoor ranges.
- Private Outdoor Range & Air-Conditioned Classroom both conveniently located in Azusa.
- Hot lunch provided on Day 1 of initial training & drinks and snacks included both days.
- Skills taught go beyond just passing the basic qualification. I teach advanced skills like holster draw, how to shoot sooner without over confirming sights, rapid fire while still being defensively accurate, clearing malfunctions, one-handed shooting & more.
- An appropriate IWB/OWB holster required and primary gun must be a semi-automatic pistol to keep up with the group class. Revolvers are only allowed as additional guns for the CCW qualifications.
- Timed shooting drills to simulate shooting under pressure and taking your shooting ability to the next level.
- Lecture emphasizing a defensive mindset and critical decision-making to avoid bad situations in the first place, with a firearm as a last resort whenever possible.

Most renewal clients I've had never learned safe, efficient holster draw or how to shoot fast while being defensively accurate in their initial training.
If you do not have advanced skills to prevail in a life and death situation, you're not only walking around in public kidding yourself, but also a liability to the rest of us in the general public.
