My Biography
I am Joseph Brothers Jr., an NRA and USCCA certified Firearms Instructor. My passion for firearms training grew out of a desire to provide my young daughter the knowledge necessary to be safe and responsible around guns. As I learned, I poured those lessons into her. Over the years, I trained many of her peers, friends, family and eventually commercial classes.
At this point, I greatly enjoy guiding students through the intricacies of firearm operation, first shots and the skills necessary to exercise their second amendment rights. At Tactical ARC we are dedicated to promoting safe firearm practices and responsible ownership. We aim to provide clear and concise training for all skill levels. Whether you are considering purchase of a weapon for home defense or recreation, or you are a little rusty and need to brush up on your skills, OR you have a young one who you would like exposed to the world of firearms by a safety minded father of two, we can assist!
