"Carrying a gun is like having a little Secret Courage..."
At age 13, Alex learned to shoot.
Do any of the following apply to you:

* Are you afraid to walk to your car alone?
* Do you avoid shopping at night?
* Are you concerned about the neighborhood you live in?
* Do you worry about your safety when walking or jogging
?

If so, maybe it's time for a little "Secret Courage"!
The purpose of this site is NOT to get you to buy a gun! It's to "arm you with knowledge" and educate you about the proper selection, ownership, use, and storage of a hangun and ammunition.

Once you get all of the facts in a safe, fun environment, you can make your OWN decision about whether or not ownership of a handgun is right for you. You don't need a gun to take our classes! We provide everything!
Donna refuses to be a victim!
A friend of mine who lives in a rather nice community recently told me she was worried about walking her little dog at night. While not a paranoid person, she had a revelation that there were so many dark places for "creeps" to hide as she walked along. I admired her for not walking around with blinders on as we often do. She was making simple observations about her own safety.
The topic of owning and carrying a gun came up, as she knew I carried a handgun everywhere I could legally do so. As I explained the benefits of carrying a concealed handgun my friend seemed nervous and unsure. Her mother chimed in and said: "It's kind of like having a little secret courage." For all of my experience, statistics, and stories, I could never have said it better.
The world we live in can be a very dangerous place. Most of us try not to think about it. Yet a savvy woman takes certain precautions to protect themselves and their loved ones. For example many of us have smoke detectors and fire extinguishers in our homes, cars, boats & RV's. The chances of actually needing them are slim, but we are ready just the same.

Does that makes us paranoid? Does it ruin the way we live or look at the world? Does being ready to protect ourselves mean we have a jaded view of society? Of course not. It simply means we are savvy, educated adults, taking responsibility for our own safety.
Shooting is fun!
So why is there this perceived cloud of gloom and doom over responsible ownership of a handgun? Who is it that came up with the bright idea of waiting for the police during a violent attack or crime? What is the difference between a fire raging toward your child's bedroom or a hell-bent criminal raging toward your child's bedroom? Are you any less likely to protect the people you love from criminals than you are a fire? Why should we be any less inclined to protect ourselves while waiting for the police to arrive?

Do you really think that knife, baseball bat, or pepper spray is really going to scare anybody?

You're kidding, right? You're betting your LIFE on it!
Let's pretend the police could be anywhere on the planet earth within 3 minutes. For the next 3 minutes I want you to sit there, close your eyes, and imagine what an attacker could do to you or a loved one in that time. Go ahead.... tic-toc, tic-toc, tic-toc. Horrifying, isn't it?
Because when seconds count, the police are only minutes away!
Why should you own a handgun?
I have kids! I can't have a loaded gun in my house!
Think again! A Gun Vault is a small safe with a pushbutton combination inside of a handprint. In the dark of night it is easy to enter the combination with your fingertips and gain immediate access to your handgun. You can keep your safe under the bed, in the closet or in a drawer.

Unauthorized persons such as your KIDS, relatives, visitors or thieves cannot get to your gun!
Myth:
Owning a handgun for personal defense is a very personal choice. My goal is to provide you with plenty of information AND practical experience so that you can make that choice, and decide what is best for you.

Secret Courage
At age 15 Alex handles a Glock 9mm with purpose and poise! If Alex can do it, YOU CAN TOO!
Gun control is the notion that a woman found in an alley raped and strangled with her own pantyhose is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound.
