My Biography

I have been married for over 23 years and am the father of 6 children. I am a 24-year Veteran of the U.S. Army, the Founder of Family Defense Firearms and The Director of Training at "Sendero Shooting Sports" in Belton, Texas.
I firmly believe in our God given American right to keep and bear arms.  It is the duty of all honest Patriots to seek out, and develop the skills needed to protect ourselves and loved ones from the predatory criminals that walk the streets of America. Attitude is everything in an emotional and violent confrontation.  If trained correctly you will do what you were trained to do, and what you practice to do.  At The Gun Range, we stress the need for constant functional training.  It is not enough to just go to a class and receive some instruction every year you must practice, Practice, PRACTICE!

It was a pleasure having you train with us, and we hope you walked away feeling more confident, capable, and comfortable with your skills. Remember, training is a journey—not a one-time event. We look forward to having you back on the range to continue building on what you learned and take those skills to the next level. We look forward to training with you again soon!"
