My Biography

Hello! I am Al Seward, a certified Concealed Carry & Home Defense Fundamentals Instructor, as well as a Certified Range Safety Officer and Certified Woman's Handgun & Self-Defense Fundamentals Instructor. Additionally, I hold a certification in Countering The Mass Shooter Threat.

My passion is assisting individuals who are new to firearms or those who wish to enhance their skills and comfort with them. I firmly believe that having a comprehensive personal safety plan is vital, and firearms are only one aspect of that plan. It is unwise to rely solely on firearms for safety, as a firearm in and of itself is not enough to keep you safe. People with a safety plan form the foundation for keeping themselves and their families safe.

My aim is to help you establish a holistic approach to personal safety that considers all aspects of your well-being, including physical, legal, and moral safety. My intention is to provide you with the knowledge and skills required to use firearms safely and responsibly while underscoring the significance of avoiding hazardous situations whenever possible.

As a responsible and law-abiding gun owner, I believe that shooting can be an enjoyable hobby. Improving your abilities as you become more experienced is a thrilling sensation, and I want you to experience that as well.

Whether you're a novice gun owner or an experienced shooter, I am here to assist you. Together, we can develop a plan that helps keeps you and your loved ones safe while also allowing you to appreciate the art of shooting. Thank you for visiting my website, and I look forward to working with you.

    "This review is overdue; however, I am taking the time now to provide my review of this training and the instructor. I cannot say enough positive things about Al Seward. He took the time to ensure every participant fully understood the course material and never rushed through any topic. His knowledge, patience, and dedication to teaching were evident throughout the entire training. What truly set him apart was his willingness to provide detailed, step-by-step PowerPoint instructions that made the material easy to follow and reference later. Even after the course ended, he continued to answer questions and offer guidance, demonstrating a genuine commitment to our success. His professionalism, responsiveness, and passion for helping others learn made this one of the most valuable training experiences I have had. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and supportive instructor, who went above and beyond to ensure we succeeded."
