Introduction to Handguns
– 5 Hours

“Getting Started the Right Way"

This class is designed for people with little to no knowledge of handguns or those who are years out of practice and want a good refresher course.  The first portion of the class will be in the classroom and will cover basic knowledge of handguns and ammunition and move into an in-depth discussion of safety.  We will then move to the range where the fundamentals of shooting will be demonstrated and practiced by the student using dry fire techniques.  The basics of stance, grip, sight alignment, trigger control, breath control and follow-through are emphasized to maximize your success from the first shot.  This is a 5 hour class and cost is $50.  Enrollment is required.

Oklahoma Concealed Carry
  – 8 Hours

“Training Requirement for OK CCW Permit"

This course meets all training requirements in accordance with Title 21 Section 1290.1 et seg known as the "Oklahoma Self Defense Act".  This course will be held in Stillwater OK.  Group classes can be scheduled anywhere within the state of Oklahoma.

Why choose us for your training?  Because of that word - training.  You see, all instructors are required to use the state of Oklahoma approved curriculum and we are certainly no different.  We take the required information and put it into instruction and language you can understand.  We utilize experiences, scenarios, and "what-if" building exercises to allow our students to not just hear the law read from an instructor's book but to actually experience what the rules and regulations are all about.

We go beyond the required material and give our students a head start in concealed carry by going over additional subjects such as how to carry your concealed weapon effectively, the multitude of options available in holsters and other carry gear; handgun, caliber, ammunition selection and more.  You will have the opportunity for hands on knowledge that require most people years of trial and error to receive.  Our instructors truly care about the students and want you to leave the class with confidence, knowledge, and new abilities.  Upon completion, there's a good chance you will know more than many people who have been carrying for years.  In short, you will receive training.  This is an 8 hour class and cost is $60.  Enrollment is required.

Half Day CCW Classes – Total 8 hours


We understand your schedule is busy.  Between soccer games and dance recitals, its hard to squeeze in a Concealed Carry Class.  We have the answer.

We will be offering the opportunity to complete the Oklahoma Concealed Carry Class over a 2-day period.  Instead of devoting an entire Saturday to the class, you can now complete the required training during a Friday evening and a Saturday morning or Sunday afternoon - see schedule for specific dates.

You won't miss out on any of the high quality training, either.  We'll be presenting the exact same information as we do in our all-day class, just in a more convenient schedule for you.

Training Schedule:

  • Friday - 6:00 PM - 10:00 PM (Please arrive 15 minutes early for registration)
  • Saturday - 8:00 AM - Noon
  • You do not need your firearms, ammunition, etc for the Friday evening portion.  Friday will be classroom work only.  There's a good chance we will complete the course work early on Friday evening and the class will be dismissed.  However, please plan on being at the classroom until as late as 10:00 PM.  Saturday, you will need to be prepared for the range.  We will take periodic breaks during both training days but there will be no extended meal breaks.

    Private Handgun Instruction Skill Builder - 1 on 1 instruction in 30 minute blocks


    Is there one particular skill set you are wanting to improve upon?  Many times a group class might spend a block of time on that skill set but then move on to another subject.  We want to help you in your shooting/self-defense skills no matter where you're at in your abilities.  Here are some examples of subject material YOU might choose to cover:


    • Perhaps you are a newer shooter and just need some time at the range with an instructor going over stance, grip, sight alignment and trigger control.
    • Maybe you've been shooting for a while and want to work on your draw techniques from a concealed holster or moving while shooting.
    • Perhaps you're comfortable with your shooting skills but want a critical evaluation of what you're doing to take your skills to the next level.
    • You might be an advanced shooter and just want to improve your accuracy and speed.
    • You may need some guidance in the proper use of and shooting from behind cover.
    • Maybe you don't know what you need to work on but you know you want to get better.  We can evaluate your current skill set and make quick decisions about what to focus on during your training session.
    • Use your imagination and we will tailor the training to fit your needs.
    • Minors must be accompanied by a legal guardian.

    That's right, its your choice as to what you want to work and improve upon.  Nothing is too basic or too advanced.  We will schedule you for blocks of instruction at 30 minute intervals (You can sign up for more than one 30 minute block).  During that time, you will receive 1 on 1 instruction.  By focusing exclusively on a single shooter and only on specific skill sets, you can advance further in 30 minutes than you might be able to in an entire afternoon.  This is your chance to take a big step forward with private, student focused instruction.

    Equipment required for this class will vary based on the focus of the training but could include:
    • Your handgun (Required)
    • 100 rounds of ammo/30 minute block of instruction (Recommended)
    • Hearing & Eye Protection (Required)
    • A baseball style cap (Required)
    • Holster
    • Extra Magazines
    • Other Depending on Training

    Registration is required.  Cost of a 30 minute block of private instruction is $25.  We will meet at the Stillwater Armory Firing Range.  The classroom facility will not be open for this class.  You will receive an information pack by e-mail upon registration.  If you have any questions on this class, please call 405-612-1124.
