Trevor T. says, "With the current world that we live, I highly recommend gun safety for everyone. I haven't shot a firearm since I was 17. 30 years later I have become a gun owner again and wanted to familiarize myself with a semi-automatic pistol. Kevin has a very relaxed teaching style within a comfortable home environment. His price point is extremely fair for the services provided. Safety procedures, field stripping & cleaning were just a few lessons that we went over. He also teaches safety with several other gun styles. Revolvers, Bolt action & Semi-auto Rifles just to name a few. For additional training, he also provides lessons on shooting your firearm at the range if needed. I highly recommend taking Kevin's course if you want to become a safer, more responsible gun owner. " Read more

Kobi O. says, "My wife and I took lessons with Daniel for handgun training. I had some prior basic experience but needed a refresher, and my wife was starting with no experience. Daniel was very patient and walked us through many important safety rules before getting into some real shooting, but even then he was supportive and very efficient with the limited time that we had. We since decided to make lessons with Daniel a bi-monthly routine. My skills are more proficient now and so are my wife’s! We are very thankful for Daniel and his training. Both of us are feeling so much more comfortable with our accuracy and ability to safely protect our family. Go Daniel." Read more

I have taken one, two hour training with him and now feel confident with owning a firearm. Sean is extremely knowledgeable, patient and will teach you things that you’ve never even thought about but so important to your safety. I can’t say enough great things about Marsicane Defensive Solutions! I will continue training with Marsicane and highly recommend. " Read more

Your Gun and Firearm Training questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

What is the cost of gun safety training?

Gun safety classes cost $50 to $250, depending on the location and duration of the course. These classes are designed to educate participants on the safe handling, use, and storage of firearms. Various organizations, including the NRA, offer programs that cater to different experience levels, from beginners to more advanced shooters. Investing in proper training is crucial for ensuring not only personal safety but also the safety of others around you.

Proper training not only enhances your skills and confidence when handling firearms but also significantly reduces the risk of accidents. Many states may even require proof of training for certain permits or licenses, making it a worthwhile investment for any responsible gun owner. Overall, prioritizing gun safety education is an essential step toward ensuring a safe environment for yourself and those around you.

What are the basic rules of gun safety?

The fundamental rules of gun safety are designed to minimize risks and prevent accidents. The basic rules include:

  • Treat every firearm as if it is loaded: Always assume that a firearm is loaded, even if you believe it is not. This mindset fosters caution and respect for firearms.
  • Keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction: Always ensure that the muzzle (the front end of the gun) is pointed away from yourself and others. This minimizes the risk of injury in case of an accidental discharge.
  • Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot:Do not place your finger on the trigger until you are prepared to fire. This helps prevent unintentional discharges.
  • Be aware of your target and what lies beyond it:Always identify your target and be mindful of what is behind it. This awareness is crucial for preventing accidents and ensuring that stray shots do not harm others.
  • Store firearms securely: When not in use, firearms should be stored unloaded in a locked container or safe, with ammunition stored separately. This practice prevents unauthorized access and reduces the risk of accidents.
  • Regularly review safety practices: Continually educate yourself and others about these safety rules to reinforce their importance and maintain a culture of safety around firearms.

How should firearms be stored safely?

Firearms should always be stored unloaded in a locked container or safe that is inaccessible to children or unauthorized users. Using high-quality gun safes or lockboxes can provide an added layer of security. Additionally, ammunition should be stored separately from firearms in another locked location. This practice not only helps prevent accidents but also deters theft and misuse.

Regularly reviewing your storage practices is essential for maintaining safety over time. Ensure that all family members understand the importance of secure firearm storage and know how to access them safely if needed. Educating children about the dangers of firearms and establishing clear rules regarding their access can further enhance safety at home.

What should I do if I find a gun?

If you encounter a firearm, DO NOT touch it under any circumstances. Instead, you should leave the area immediately and inform an adult or responsible authority about what you have found. This response is vital because handling a firearm without proper knowledge can lead to dangerous situations. Educating children about this protocol helps instill a sense of responsibility and awareness regarding firearms in their environment.

Open discussions about gun safety within families are essential for fostering understanding and respect for firearms. Children should be taught that guns can be dangerous tools that require careful handling and respect. Encouraging them to communicate openly if they encounter a gun can prevent accidents and promote a culture of safety within communities.

Why is it important to wear eye and ear protection while shooting?

Wearing eye and ear protection while shooting is essential for safeguarding your health during shooting activities. Firearms generate loud noises that can lead to permanent hearing damage if proper precautions are not taken. The sound produced by gunfire can exceed 140 decibels, which is well above the threshold that can cause hearing loss over time. Additionally, shooting can create debris, hot gases, and other projectiles that pose risks to your eyes, protective eyewear acts as a barrier against these hazards.

Using appropriate protective gear ensures that shooters can focus on their technique without compromising their safety or well-being. Eye protection should meet specific standards for impact resistance, while ear protection may include earmuffs or plugs designed to reduce noise levels effectively.

How do I choose a gun safety training course?

Choosing the right gun safety training course is essential for gaining the knowledge and skills necessary to handle firearms safely. Consider these factors:

  • Course content: Ensure the curriculum covers essential topics such as safe handling, storage, and legal responsibilities.
  • Instructor qualifications: Check the instructor's experience and certifications from recognized organizations like the NRA.
  • Format: Decide whether you prefer in-person training or online courses based on your learning style and availability.
  • Cost and duration: Compare prices and course lengths to find one that fits your budget and schedule.
  • Participant size: Consider smaller class sizes for more personalized instruction and hands-on experience.
  • Reviews and recommendations: Look for feedback from previous participants on Lessons.com and Google or seek recommendations from experienced shooters.

What questions should I ask a gun safety instructor?

When evaluating a gun safety instructor, asking the right questions can help ensure you receive quality training. Here are some important questions to ask:

  • What is your experience in firearms training?
  • How do you tailor your instruction for different skill levels?
  • What materials will be provided during the course?
  • How do you incorporate practical exercises into your training?
  • What is your approach to safety during training?
  • How do you handle questions or concerns from participants?

I thought the training was excellent and we'll thought out. The instruction was informative and engaging. He stopped at every opportunity to answer questions, and not once did he make you feel like you were stupid. It was a great experience. It was hot though.
