As of January 13, 2025, the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles County have burned over 38,000 acres, leaving a trail of destruction and uncertainty for countless families. Our thoughts are with everyone impacted by these tragic events, as well as the brave first responders working tirelessly on the frontlines to protect lives and property.
At 2nd A Fi****ms Training, we’re reminded of the importance of preparedness in all aspects of life. While we focus on responsible firearm training, events like these highlight the need to stay vigilant, informed, and ready to act in emergencies.
To everyone in affected areas, stay safe, stay informed, and know that our thoughts are with you.
