My Biography

Modern Defense Dynamics was established to bring practical training to firearms instruction. With combined over 30 years of professional firearms experience, Brad Fisher and Troy Eberling combine relevant firearms instruction with a state-of-the-art firearms Simulator.

The Simulator utilizes special firearms that look, feel, and function like the real thing. A variety of different targets include: Standard qualification targets, dueling trees, command shape targets, decision making targets, and interactive simulations. Each one is used to develop firearms safety, basic weapon handling, target identification, and advanced shooting skills.

Brad enlisted in the US Army shortly after 9/11, and deployed to Iraq in 2005. As a Calvary Scout, Brad specialized in urban warfare, close quarter combat, and light and heavy weapons. After leaving the Army, Brad spent over a decade as an armed officer and control station operator at a nuclear facility. Here, he became skilled in anti-terrorism techniques, vital area defense, multi-agency coordination, and use of force law.

Brad and Troy utilize their experience, knowledge, and skills to pass on the most relevant and critical skills to students. They understand the best way to learn is to do. By minimizing “desk time”, they get students on their feet and guns in their hands. The simulator allows for practical instruction during active training. The simulator also allows for much more trigger time without worrying about the cost and availability of ammunition. This fact alone makes these classes an excellent value.
