I couldn’t be happier that I chose Rick for this course. A friend and son attended with me. The class was small which was perfect. Individualized attention to each student. Rick is engaging and a very good instructor that held my attention. I would highly recommend Rick if you need a course. Thanks Rick!!!!!!

Rick does a great job of making classes fun and interesting with otherwise dry material. The light [laser emitting] gun training was a very useful precursor to live fire for learning stance and handling. I can’t recommend Rick’s class enough if you want to learn how to handle firearms in any capacity.

Rick is so enthusiastic and passionate about the subject – he makes an intimidating topic very fun and comfortable! Rick is very knowledgeable and well-versed. I enjoyed his warm and welcoming and unique approach to familiarizing me to guns, gun handling and safety and the laws. I felt very comfortable handling a gun after the class with never having had held a gun before.

Rick is an incredible instructor! He kept the lecture and demonstration engaging and informative and expertly articulated the gravity of firearm safety while keeping it approachable for first timers. Highly recommend him!

Rick is a fantastic instructor. His kindness and sense of humor helped us all gain comfort and knowledge in a totally non-judgmental setting. I was struck by his ability to meet each member of our class where we were at, providing us all with the knowledge and respect for firearms safety and additional skills and information tailored to our interests and comfort levels. I would definitely recommend his class for anyone who is interested in learning more about basic firearms safety.

“I took the SIRT [Applied Fundamentals] class with Rick and found it to be an excellent class even for experienced shooters. [Despite] over 50 years of experience in the shooting sports as well as being an instructor, the class gave me new insights into grip, stance, and point shooting. I recommend the class for all levels of shooters!”

“A year ago I got my license to carry and had no idea what I was doing. Rick is an excellent instructor and I will continue to take more classes from him. He is very knowledgeable, patient, and makes learning fun. He takes the time to listen and his critiques come with clear direction. I really enjoy this sport and I attribute that to Rick’s training, his love for the sport and his emphasis on safety. Rick is a top-notch instructor and there’s always something you can learn from him whether you’re a beginner intermediate or expert.”

“This [Applied Fundamentals] is a fun and easy class to improve your point-and-shoot fundamentals. Puts focus safely on your trigger-pull without live fire.”

It would be nice if the gun culture was able to self-regulate
