Every class below is taught hands-on at our private range in the Ozarks — by instructors who do this for a living, at a pace built around you. Start where you are. We'll take you the rest of the way.
Get Certified
The credentials that make you legal, documented, and confident.
Armed & Accountable — CCW & Home Defense Certification
Our flagship concealed carry certification. One day that covers safe handling, the fundamentals of defensive shooting, and when the law actually lets you use force — so you carry with a permit that's recognized in dozens of states, documented proof of training, and real clarity instead of guesswork.

Women's Beginner Handgun

Own an AR but never been taught to run it? This is the ground-up class: safe handling, how your rifle actually works, and live-fire fundamentals on our private range.
Register / Sign UpTactical Pistol
Past the basics and ready to push? Run your pistol harder — speed, movement, and decision-making under pressure.
Register / Sign UpTactical Rifle
Take your rifle beyond the bench. Practical carbine work on our private range — positions, transitions, and running the gun with purpose.
Register / Sign UpDefensive Pistol Program (DPP)
Our most complete defensive handgun training — a five-session program that takes you from the fundamentals of defensive marksmanship through drawing from concealment, speed and precision, the defensive response, and one-handed shooting and malfunctions. Start with Session 1 and earn your way up.
Start with Session 1Medical & Readiness
Protecting your people is more than marksmanship.
Emergency First Aid Fundamentals
The skills that keep someone alive until help arrives. Hands-on first aid fundamentals for real emergencies at home, on the road, or on the range.
Register / Sign UpQuick Reaction Medical
When seconds count: bleeding control, tourniquets, and the immediate actions that stop a survivable injury from becoming a fatal one.
Register / Sign UpRestart the Heart (CPR)
CPR training for the people you love most. Learn to recognize cardiac arrest and act without hesitation.
Register / Sign UpNon-Lethal Defense
Not every threat calls for a firearm — and some situations won't let you carry one. This class covers the middle ground: pepper sprays and gels, TASER devices, and self-defense launchers — how they work, when they're the right call, and hands-on practice so you can carry one with confidence. Great on its own, or as a first step before firearms training.

The Urban Exit — 4-Day Immersive
Your flight just got diverted. Your phone is dead weight. Home is 600 miles away. What now?
The Urban Exit is a 4-day immersive experience where ordinary adults find out — for real — how they think, decide, and lead when normal systems fail. No firearms. No lectures. No rescue. You'll navigate without GPS, communicate when the network's gone, build your kit under pressure, and make decisions that carry consequences — with three instructors keeping it challenging, never dangerous.
Not for preppers, know-it-alls, or thrill-seekers. For the parent, the spouse, the professional who's quietly wondered: would I actually handle it?
Most people hope. Some people prepare. A few find out.
