About

As a firearms instructor qualifing students to obtain a Nevada Concealed Carry Permit, we offer small group training with lots of hands on training.

Most instructors in the Las Vegas area teach the bare minimum needed to qualify and expect you to already know how to fully operate a firearm. The classes often consist of an 8 hour power point lecture, with a short trip to the range. You won't learn much about using a gun, nor gain experience doing so. So being given a permit in that situation may put you more at risk.

With Nevada Shooter's Club, you will get instruction on the fundamentals of safe gun handling, and learn how to fully operate a firearm. Our classroom training focuses on building skill using a firearm rather than reading about it. We also cover a variety of shooting positions, drawing from a holster, and practicing everything we covered in the classroom.

As a result, you will leave the class learning valuable skills that can safe your life, feel confident in your ability to safely handle a firearm, and have fun!

Empowering people with the skills to defend themselves has been a life long passion of mine. I have spent over 25 years of my life devoted to self defense, from martial arts to firearms handling.

I find that the lessons learned from self defense, humility, respect, discipline, and self confidence translate to all areas of life. So even though we hope that we never have to exercise the use of our self defense skills, the virtues of training improve our quality of life and make us better for it.

    I took the CCW course with David Avellan. David is a really good instructor. Im a beginner with firearms so I was nervous that things might go over my head but that wasnt the case at all. David was very thorough at explaining things from the basics on up and always made sure that everyone understood everything before moving on. We went over everything from legal issues to practical issues like how a gun works and how to draw your gun should you need to. We did a lot of hands on practice as well and I found those parts of the class to be really fun. Overall the class was very engaging and thankfully not just a boring lecture. I would strongly recommend anyone looking to take the CCW course to consider Nevada Shooters Club if theyre looking for a really good instructor who will take the time to ensure they learn everything they need to.

    David did an excellent job having a balance between being very polite and patient with the folks in class who needed extra support while maintaining control of the class and individual activities. Everyone was engaged and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this course. Hope to take additional training with David.

    I had several options to renew my CCW however, after reading online about David’s class with Nevada Shooters Club I decided to go with him. David’s class was very informative, hands on training, laser target shooting etc… more so than my first time with a different instructor which was pretty much all PowerPoint and short range time. I was the only person in David’s class and I was ok with that it was more one on one and personal, David taught me things I never knew, he showed me techniques that saved a lot of time and bruises, I have already recommended this class to friends and will continue to do so. Thank you again for a great class and more knowledge practice makes perfect.

    Frequently asked questions

    After a student registers, we send detailed instructions on what to bring to the class, what to expect, and address any questions they may have about the training. 

    I have trained in self defense for over 25 years, including training and teaching in Mixed Martial Arts. I have been a professional competitor and coach in the martial arts, and have taught thousands of people all across the world.

    With firearms, I am a NRA certified Instructor in: Basic Pistol, Personal Protection Inside the Home, Personal Protection Outside the Home, Basic Shotgun, Basic Rifle, and a Chief Range Safety Officer.

    I have been teaching for over twenty years. Whether it was tutoring classmates in electrical engineering, or teaching mixed martial arts, I have a lot of experience working with hundreds of people in both conceptual and hands on fields. 

    As I focus on self defense, moving to teaching firearm safety was a natural progression. While I love martial arts, I realize that not everyone will participate in it. So teaching people how to safely and responsibly use a gun allows me to help those people protect themselves.

    The most rewarding part of teaching for me is instilling people with confidence, and teaching people how to defend themselves and their loved ones is perhaps one of the greatest confidence boosters I know of.

    I have worked with students that have zero experience with guns, not even owning a gun at the time of the course as we provide rental guns for people in that situation. 

    I also have worked with people who have guns, but have no training and limited use.

    Finally, I have worked with those that have a lot of experience, such as former service members of the US military. 

    Regardless of your level of experience, we can help train you, teaching you valuable skills and help reinforce your safety.
