- Live fire training goes above and beyond just passing the basic qualification. We 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.

Tom is very knowledgeable and provides great insight on CCW training." - Dr. Jeffry Phillips, LAPD Commanding Officer

PRIVATE 8HR RENEWAL ($1200)
Your 8-hour renewal training in 1 day.
I am only available every 4 weeks so my availability for private 8 Hour CCW training is very limited. If I am not available, you can contact ATG who are authorized to teach private lessons on my behalf. Their pricing may differ.
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.
All 8 hours is live fire at the range, zero classroom to get your shooting skills from basic level to advanced level as a defender.
8hr Live Fire ($1200)
Accuracy & Best Practices, Holster Draw, Speed & Performance Shooting, Clearing Malfunctions, One Handed Shooting & CCW Qualification
Location: Burro Canyon Shooting Park
Family/Friend discount: This is the same curriculum as our Pistol 201: Speed & Performance. If you have family/friends who want to learn the same advanced skills, they can join you at $250/person.
