Minnesota Permit to Carry & Firearms Instructor Training
Firearms training with clear guidance, and one-on-one support for students preparing to carry responsibly or become an instructor.
“Daniel’s class was very informative and thorough with all the material. He provided lots of real-life examples from his impressive background. He made the class very exciting and interesting. When we got to the gun range he helped me feel very comfortable the entire time since I had never held or shot a gun! I would highly recommend his class!”
Tegan L.
“Daniel is a very patient and thorough instructor. Great one on one work with training pistols and on the range. Very thorough and clear explanation on reasonable use of force and scenario exercises on using good judgment as to when it is justiable to use a firearm in self defense. Would recommend the class to anyone!”
“My wife’s and my experience taking this class with Instructor Daniel Ward was nothing short of a great experience. He made the entire process truly informative as well as down to earth. I would strongly recommend him to anyone on the fence about taking the class!”
“Mr. Ward was thorough, attentive and detailed throughout the entire class. He ensured that you understood the material, the proper handling of the firearms and was an excellent teacher all around. I am much more confident going forward in learning how to properly handle and carry to protect myself.”
