Brandon Nadeau

Offering a variety of firearms trainings including permit to carry and MN POST approved law enforcement training and qualification, as well as other personal defense related classes. I am Brandon Nadeau, owner and instructor for Guardian Defense LLC. As an outdoor enthusiast I grew up with firearms for both hunting and recreational shooting. My training and experience in firearms fundamentals and tactics have been expanded as I have served in law enforcement as a Patrol Officer for over 12 years, a SWAT Operator/Sniper for 5 years, and a firearms instructor for my department for 5 years. I also instructed youth firearms safety/hunter education courses for the MN DNR for 5 years. I have completed the following firearms instructor courses: USCCA Concealed Carry/Home Defense, Law Enforcement Pistol/Rifle/Shotgun from both Alexandria Community & Technical College and Ballistic Defense, and Red Dot Sight Instructor - Pistol by S.T.O.R.M. Training Group. As a firearms instructor my primary goals are to provide training courses that will improve the students' understanding of the responsibilities that come with the use of firearms, while improving their confidence in their abilities and knowledge.
