Like many kids growing up in the suburbs, my introduction to shooting sports was at camp: BB guns and archery for the younger campers, and single shot .22 rifles for the older kids. It was a blast (sorry), and I was hooked!
As a working adult, I’ve always found time to get out and shoot, and to take the occasional class. But it wasn’t till the 2020 shutdown that I decided to turn my off hours obsession into a full time job. With years of experience and the required course work under my belt, I am a fully-accredited instructor, providing classes from new shooter orientation to concealed carry licensing.
So far, our experience confirms the need for approachable, user-friendly instruction for the thousands of new gun owners in Oregon. And, so far, I’m proud to say we’ve been able to give a diverse group of those individuals greater confidence on the range and in their day to day lives—so they can stay ready.
