why train with us
As a new gun owner (I recently purchased my first handgun for home defense), I want to make sure I'm as responsible and skilled as possible in the case I need to step up to protect the people I love. I did a few days' worth of research on classes and instructors in my area and eventually decided Veterans Training Group was the best around.

I was introduced to Veterans Training Group through a friend who had taken one of their classes. At the time, I didn’t even own a firearm—but I had always wanted to feel more informed and less anxious about them. I decided to join a group class, thinking it would be a low-pressure way to explore something new. That decision turned out to be one of the best I’ve made.

I gifted my husband with a VTG training course for his bday. He was giddy the entire rest of the day and told me repeatedly
it was the best gift ever.

Unbelievable experience! I was fortunate enough to get referred to Steven and he did not disappoint. I've gone shooting many times before and I thought I was pretty good, but I clearly wasn't anywhere close to being proficient. After this course, I am a much better shot and have more confidence.
