REVIEWS

“Scott Reitz and his instructors instill confidence and also inject humor into their teaching method where the student feels safe and comfortable. Safety is not negotiable; Scott and the others demand this.”

“I wanted to thank you for an education and fun Handgun I class, dare I say it was life changing. I do think that all gun owners should take your course. Unfortunately I did not grow up in a household that owned guns (no knowledge was imparted on me) so when I became an adult and purchased my first gun (shotgun) the gun safety knowledge was learned through Hunter/Safety classes, which as you can imagine are kind of a joke. When my three children come of age I will absolutely accompany them to your class.”

Our Home Defense course will provide students with a comprehensive understanding of how to prepare one’s home in order to deter from and protect against intruders, as well as how to handle a variety of life-threatening scenarios in their home. We will cover the planning and implementation of defensive procedures. This will include an introduction to a number of defensive tools as an alternative to firearms such as tasers, pepper spray, etc.

Students will learn how to safeguard their homes by identifying soft points, make their homes more secure with simple measures, assist family members in an emergency and if the situation arises, deal with a home invasion and possible armed intruder using whatever force necessary to stop the threat.

Class will be held at an offsite location where we will conduct a variety of home invasion scenarios. Students will have to think on their feet to effectively identify and address the problem. Simunitions will be used - this is NOT a live fire class.
