Learned valuable lessons starting from a basic level of shooting iron sights. Learned to call a qualification course of fire. Took lesson plans that can be taught to beginners handling a rifle all the way to skilled shooters.

This class improved my shooting abilities, and most importantly, focused on our instructing skills. The instructor was knowledgeable and credible when teaching. It was good to strip away all the fancy equipment and going back to basics such a fundamentals in shooting, working through malfunctions, and working with iron sights. Overall, this was a well rounded course and I will be bringing back this knowledge to my agency.

Excellent rifle instructor who explained every concept clearly and made safety the top priority throughout the course. Their hands-on teaching style, patience, and real-world experience made the training both engaging and easy to understand. I left the class feeling far more confident in my rifle handling, marksmanship, and ability to safely instruct others.

Vinny was awesome. Definitely one of a kind. Builds confidence as a shooter and instructor by breaking down the shooter/instructor to come back down to fundamentals and basics. Vinny then builds the student to retrieve expert level knowledge in a short span of time.
