Shotgun

$150.00

In the last couple of decades and with the increased use of patrol rifles in law enforcement, shotguns have seemed to have fallen by the wayside with many law enforcement agencies and private citizens. Our opinion at Tactical Consultants is the shotgun is still a very viable weapon and a great choice for personal/home defense. Shotguns take a considerable amount of training. To purchase one and not spend time with the firearm and understanding the ammunition it feeds is not exercising proper use and handling of the firearm. Not only a lot of fun to shoot and truly a multi-functional weapon system, but shotguns are also a formidable firearm that, with a little practice, can serve a family well in defending the home.

What Our Client Say

Damon brings real world experience and passion about the right to be your own first responder into the classroom. Today, with the state of our world it is especially important to be ready to successfully evade a potentially dangerous situation or defend yourself when necessary. This course was not merely about carrying a firearm. It also brought awareness to the responsibility of carrying and being aware of your surroundings. I feel more empowered as a woman after taking this course and look forward to future training with Damon. Thank you for continuing to teach beyond serving in a full career as law enforcement.

Former Student

Damon was an absolutely excellent instructor. He applied the rules and regulations of different weapons to real life situations and how each law would be applicable. Overall I am extremely happy with my experience and have learned an incredible amount about gun safety.

Seth R.

Damon Smith was a tremendous instructor for the class and was very knowledgeable and down to earth during our training session. Would recommend his class to anyone interested in obtaining their concealed carry license.

Beers J.

Damon is the best! Very professional, very knowledgeable and he’s a sharp shooter. But he was very thorough with his presentation. It was very much appreciated.

Anthony W.

Extremely thorough, knowledgeable instructor. Hands on, and takes time to individually work with clients and address any questions or concerns that arise in training. It’s clear that this is Damon’s passion. The cumulative law enforcement experience that Damon has provides an invaluable training experience and edge over other CPL courses. Highly recommended!
