Private Lessons

A great choice for extra individual attention and scheduling flexibility.

Why Private Lessons?

Don’t see a weekend group class scheduled at a convenient time? Do you need to get up to speed quickly and you don’t want to wait? Are you coming from out of town and want to add a private lesson before or after your weekend group class?

Our instructors will be glad to give you personalized training at your convenience with any weapon system you would like (Handgun, Carbine, Shotgun or Sniper) or on our Force Option Simulator.

Private lessons are perfect for those who can’t attend our weekend training, need to satisfy a prerequisite course or want to train with their own private group.

How Does it work

Private instruction is typically held on weekdays (limited weekends are sometimes available) and can be held during the day or at night – low-level light training is dependent on the student’s level of experience.

Lessons are held at our private outdoor range are 3 hours long.

You can book online for up to 6 students for a private lesson. If you would like to schedule a private group that is larger than 6 students, you can contact us to discuss further details.

Our private training schedule books up quickly so please plan accordingly. We suggest scheduling your lesson at least a few weeks in advance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely! We have firearms available to rent for all of our classes, even precision rifles for our sniper classes. When you rent from us you will receive a full rental package that includes: the firearm, all necessary associated equipment (ear and eye protection, a holster and magazine pouch, etc.) as well as ammunition for your training.

Single-action, double-action or striker-fired semi-automatic handguns are best for our classes. With a few exceptions here and there, the most common calibers are 9mm, .40 and .45. Occasionally a student may bring a .380 or 10mm to class and that’s fine with us too. However, .22 is not appropriate for our training.

Unless you are already fairly proficient with a revolver (loading, unloading, speed reloading, etc.), they are not ideal for our standard handgun classes. Almost all of our handgun classes teach to semi-automatic handguns. With that said, we do offer a Revolver Class once or twice per year and we can also teach Private Lessons with revolvers.

Yes you can and we don’t charge for them. With that said, if you own a handgun we highly recommend buying your own holster and mag pouch if you are going to commit to training long term. For Handgun 1 it’s not a big deal to use ours, but starting with Handgun 2 and on, we really prefer students use their own gear because it will be better suited to them and specific to their firearm.

A great local shop in Los Angeles to check out for any of your “soft gear” (accessories) needs is Tactical Pro Shop in Burbank – make sure to tell them we sent you and you’ll receive a discount! Most traditional gun stores in Los Angeles don’t carry such a wide variety of accessories, so other than visiting Tactical Pro Shop your next best option would be to order something online.

We don’t sell ammunition to those who are bringing their own firearm to class, they will need to supply their own. If you need help figuring out where to purchase ammunition, check out our Industry Partners!

We only provide ammunition to students who are renting firearms from us for the sole purpose of training.

Please refer to our Policies page regarding age restrictions.
