On Target Firearms Training

On Target Firearms Training Here at On Target Firearms Training we provide firearms safety training that is compliant with requi Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast.

Firearms safety is key anytime you handle a firearm and thats exactly what I offer to shooters of all experience levels. I offer NRA certified courses that will teach you proper ways to handle a firearm, different types of firearms, different types of ammunition, proper safety measures while both storing and using a firearm, etc. Both courses I currently offer can be used to apply for your LTC and

FID. Home Firearm Safety is a (approx) 4 hour classroom based safety course that covers all kinds of firearms. In this course you will do things like practice loading and unloading real revolvers, semi-automatic pistols, rifles, and shotguns with non-firing practice ammo, identify different types of firearms and their ammunition, learn how to safely handle and store guns and ammunition, learn how to clean different types of firearms, find out how to apply for an LTC or FID in your city or town, etc. No range time is needed for this course so no live fire will be conducted. This course is best suited for people with previous firearms experience or people who would simply like to know how to handle a firearm in a safe manner should there ever be a need for it. Cost for this course is $65 and includes a take home student packet. Basic Pistol is a (approx) 8 hour course that covers ONLY pistols. In this course you will do things like shoot real revolvers and semi-automatic pistols at an actual live fire range, practice safe firearm handling, understand proper storage of guns and ammunition, practice proper Grip, Stance, Aim, and Marksmanship, learn how to take apart, clean, maintain, and reassemble your pistol, find out how to apply for an LTC or FID in your city or town, etc. Range time is required for this course and live fire is included in the cost. This course is best suited for anyone that would like experience with a pistol before going out and buying a pistol or getting their LTC. I suggest this course to those who have little to no experience with a firearm but plan to get your FID or LTC. Cost of this course is $130 and includes range time and a take home student packet. Please view the Courses tab at www.OnTargetFirearmsTraining.net for more class descriptions and to request personalized training. Additional courses not listed here are offered to include SABRE pepper spray/personal protection classes. Things I like to see...

- A fun learning enviornment that is relaxed but safe

- Students being interactive with the lesson plan and each other

- Willingness to learn

- Students encouraging each other and helping when they see someone struggle with the content of the lesson plan

Things I won't tolerate...

- Horseplay

- Disregard for anyones safety

- Repeated unsafe handling of firearms

- Disrespectful, degrading, discouraging, or purposly unmotivational remarks being made to anyone

- Failure to obey safety rules set fourth by myself

- NO LIVE ROUNDS WILL ENTER THE CLASSROOM!!! This is for everyone's safety

Both courses are open to shooters of all experience levels and both women and children are encouraged to participate. First time shooters are welcome as well, its never too late to start and get involved with your Second Amendment right. My motto is "Stay Alert, Stay Alive" and it not only applies to firearms safety but everyday situations as well. Always remember to treat every firearm as if its loaded and to keep it pointed in a safe direction at all times. Always keep your finger off the trigger until you're ready to shoot and identify your target and whats behind your target before you fire. I can be contacted via text, email, phone, my website www.OnTargetFirearmsTraining.net or facebook message. I run classes on weekends each month due to the fact that the majority of people work during the week but am willing to work out smaller classes or one on one training as needed. Feel free to share this page with your friends or anyone that you know who may be interested in this type of training. Fire, EMS, and Military contact me for a discount (proof of employment will need to be provided)

Thank you to everyone who came out Sunday for our last Home Firearm Safety class. We had a great group of students who made the class!

As we look into the future, we are working to build and get approved a new course that will meet the vague guidlines set by the state to be compliant with the chapter 135 law changes taking effect on April 2nd. This will take some time but we hope be able to launch a new course and be back to training in the coming weeks.

We are attending Wheeling for Warriors again this year as a gold donor. Along with a bunch of other local friends and business owners have been raising money for this great event since it started 5 years ago. We have become known as "The Fry Guys" since we had the idea to start making french fries a few years ago! It has now grown into so much more and every year we look forward to going back and meeting up with old friends and making new ones!

All the proceeds from our next two classes April 19th and May 18th are going to the event. Last year alone we donated over $2000 in cash and raffle prizes. We started a donation bucket for anyone at the event who joined us for french fries and at the end of the weekend we handed it to the great folks who run the event with no idea how much money was in it.

If you are interested in helping us out buy signing up for a seat in a class, with a donation of a raffle prize, a bag of potatos (we hand cut all the fries) or anything else please reach out to us.
