TESTIMONIALS
"I have worked with Michael and David for several years in all areas of personal and home defense. First we looked at weaknesses in my home environment, then solved them. They worked with my A/V people to create a working, usable camera system. Then they did home "role play" so that I had a prepared plan in the event of a break in. I also used their group to provide security, check in and peace of mind at several philanthropic events and parties at my home. I totally endorse Michael and David!"

"Training with David and Michael has been a transformative experience. When I first started, I was a complete novice with minimal knowledge of firearms. Thanks to their exceptional instruction, deep real-world experience, and approachable teaching style, I’ve grown into a confident, skilled shooter—excelling in competitions, concealed carry, home defense, and personal protection. Whether you're brand new or highly experienced, David and Michael create a welcoming and professional environment where every student can thrive."
