Patriot Training is a civilian firearms training academy.
THE PISTOL
In addition to our World-Class rifle instruction, Patriot Training also offers outstanding Pistol classes. Millions of people carry a pistol daily for defense, so it is imperative to be well trained and prepared, should it be needed. Also, if the use of a rifle is needed, the pistol makes a formidable back up.
This advanced pistol fighting class is perfect for new shooters, experienced shooters, and current / former law enforcement and military. The sole purpose of Essential Pistol is to take you from the typical gun owner who knows how to shoot and transform you into a pistol gunfighter who is prepared to survive a violent threat.
(Click Picture or Link below to Register)
Essential Pistol will cover legalities of defensive force, pistol marksmanship, pistol safety, drawing & presenting the pistol, shooting positions and variations, pistol muzzle positions and applications, stoppages, multiple shots, multiple targets, shooting & moving, retention shooting, one and two handed shooting, advanced CQB and room clearing concepts,

DO NOT BRING TO CLASS:
Why does Patriot Training not allow revolvers?
A - Because revolvers are not as reliable as modern semi autos. Check out the schools that do revolver classes - they all reduce round counts. And all of them talk about how many revolvers go down in each class. ALSO - revolvers tend to have a shorter sight radius, and a longer, harder trigger pull - making them extremely difficult to shoot well.
Why does Patriot Training not allow Serpa Holsters?
Because they fail, and they get people shot. Please see our FAQ page for details and links!

From natural disasters to medical emergencies to active shooters, the modern church faces unprecedented risks. To mitigate these risks, many churches are forming response teams.
Class Times
8:30 am - 5:30 pm
This class is offered to individual churches only. Special arrangements must be made for the date and time.
The CHURCH RESPONSE TEAM is comprised of men and women with the GIFT of of SERVING by way of protecting the flock. Most churches select response team members who have backgrounds in the military, law enforcement, as well as civilians who have special skills and/or interests.
Regardless of your team's prior expertise, the protection of the flock at your church has unique needs that might not have been properly addressed in your Response Team's prior training. That's where Patriot Training can help. We offer a few basic training classes that help everyone get trained up to a common level of skill for the most likely risks they might respond to.
Calendar:
On-demand only.
PATRIOT TRAINING Offers life-saving instructional segments for your response team.
All Church Response Team training classes start with the Fundamentals of Church Response. This portion of the class introduces needed roles, fundamentals of responsibilities, needed knowledge for team members, team member selection, how to handle natural disasters and other emergencies, and more.
Topics Taught:
More and more frequently, churches face the difficult situation of having to deal with agitated individuals. Being able to verbally de-escalate the situation is absolutely critical - one wrong step and your church and members of the response team may face criminal charges or civil suits.
Military and Police de-escalation techniques are very good - for military or police application. De-escalation in the civilian world is a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT skill set. Where military and police force compliance through acknowledgement of vested authority, civilians CANNOT use this methodology without serious risk of disastrous consequence.
PATRIOT TRAINING teaches your Response Team members the hands-on methodology of how to open lines of communication with an agitated individual in this segment. Using techniques from corporate conflict resolution, hostage negotiation, and real world experience de-escalating agitated individuals in a church setting, you will learn how to create a dialogue, and how to handle if that is absolutely impossible.
The sad fact is that active killers exist. Equally as unfortunate is that sometimes, these persons target places of worship as their battleground.
