My Biography

Don started shooting at around the age of 9 and has been involved with firearms ever since. In college he started in martial arts classes and his shooting evolved from a separate activity into part of an overall personal protection strategy. Aside from his primary goal of safe practice, training, and instruction, Don seeks to integrate physical force training (such as martial arts) with firearm training. During all training he seeks ways to bridge the training gap between the two and bring this integration to his trainees.

    "WOW! I cannot believe how thoroughly informed these men are. I felt so comfortable asking anything, and I couldn't have imagined a more comfortable classroom setting. The instructor to student ratio was INCREDIBLE! I got hands-on training, and all of the help I could ask for. Smaller classes I think, make for better learning and safety measures. These two gentlemen are super supportive and patient, too. I can't recommend these two any more if I tried. (I told my friends and family members immediately.) Don & Bear actually teach many other classes as well, which seems uncommon, despite how much sense it makes. I'm really looking forward to soaking up some more knowledge from these two. Please join me! Don't waste time going anywhere else. These guys have more years of experience than I've even lived."

    "Don and Berge explained everything very well. They were patient with the group and made everything safe. I would recommend them to anyone interested in obtaining their CPL"

    "The guys did an incredible job with our private CPL class. They followed all of the State required curriculum and spent additional time on areas of interest for our group. The range time was educational and, most importantly, a well-run and safe environment. "
