My Biography

Rizzo is the owner of Ophidian Tactical Solutions and is a USCCA Certified Firearms Instructor in the Metro Atlanta area. He is a staunch supporter of the 2nd Amendment. Our goal at OTS is to train as many people as we can how to safely handle and carry their firearm.

I am a member of several clubs and organizations including: USCCA, NRA, NAAGA, Bass Reeves Gun Club, Black Gun Owners Association, Firearm Policy Coalition, Arm Your Friends, LGC and the SRA. If you are new to firearms or just want to be more proficient with your firearm Ophidian Tactical is the place you are looking for. We also have classes that cater to underrepresented groups within the 2A community. If you want to schedule a private class that can be arranged. We have a strict “No Politics” policy unless we are discussing 2A issues.
