The Practical Guardian

September was busy! Had the chance to complete Non-Lethal Instructor Training at USCCA headquarters. Making even better was to take the class with Patrick Daniels ! I’m excited to teach some upcoming classes!

Fighting Pistol Concepts course is just a few weeks away, and we still have a few open spots... don't let this chance pass you by!
This exceptional class brings Adam Winch of Defenders USA to our own backyard.
Self Defender... you need to hear what is taught in this class. Law Enforcement Officer... you absolutely should be in this class, learning from the insights of a fellow officer!
Don't miss out!

It's been a week since one of the best training weekends of 2026, and I'm just getting around to being able to post about it!
Concealed Carry's annual Guardian Conference brought us back to Oklahoma City and the amazing Oklahoma City Gun Club! Not only is the facility always fun, but the staff are top notch!
Thank you to Riley T. Bowman and Jacob for allowing me the opportunity to Rangemaster this event and fill in a teaching spot.
The temps kicked our butts, but the people and chances to learn were well worth it!
If you're looking for fun, safe, unique and value-packed training options for 2027, Guardian conference is one of the best!

Take a minute or two and read the story Adam Winch shares in this post. Consider the realities of it, because this isn't just about a police officer needing to fight... it could be any one of us in our own context.
We are blessed to host this class coming up in October and still have seats available. Get your spot now, and reach out to myself or Defenders USA with any questions!
