I am a Marine and a pilot. I am a family man with a wonderful wife, son and daughter. I take their safety seriously.
I have been teaching for over 50 years. It is therefore my job and my passion to ensure that those who come to me for training are confident and capable of defending and protecting yourself, your loved ones and other innocent people around you.
When I returned from Vietnam in 1969, I began teaching handgun and rifle at Camp Pendleton, California. When I was honorably discharged from the Marine Corps in 1975, I decided to continue teaching handgun, handgun safety and self-defense tactics. I got my first concealed handgun license in Florida in 1981 and taught there until moving to Texas.
When Texas introduced Concealed handgun licenses in 1993, I got my Concealed Handgun License. I got my NRA certification as a Basic Handgun Instructor. Then, Texas decided to require (then Concealed Handgun License) applicants go through an 8-hour class to qualify for the concealed handgun license. I then went through the DPS License to Carry Instructor's course, which was a 5-day course, at DPS Training Facility, and received my License to Carry Instructor certification. I have been teaching CHL (now License to Carry) since then.
A year ago, I decided to also open a Private Security Training School. I am a Private Security Level II and Level III (armed) classroom and firearms Instructor, now contracted with numerous Private Security Companies, to train their security guards. Although I am retired, I continue to train people who choose to carry a firearm for personal protection, because I am passionate about helping and making sure that when individuals carry a firearm for personal protection, they never become the victim.
Although Texas is a "permit less" (not constitutional) carry State, meaning that there still ARE places that you are not allowed to carry a handgun, so that being said, I still, always, recommend that people get their LTC in order to understand Texas laws, where you can and where you can't' carry, handgun safety and self-defense tactics. Another benefit of possessing a LTC is that there are 39 other states that are reciprocal with Texas and recognize carrying a firearm with the Texas LTC in their state. When carrying in a reciprocal state, however, you must do your research and be knowledgeable of their handgun carry laws. I welcome you to call and chat with me.
