Defensive firearms training for the concealed carrier

At Mountain Rose Defensive Training, we offer comprehensive defensive and firearms instruction in a safe, comfortable setting. All ages and skill levels are welcomed. We provide group and private instruction, including women-only courses taught by female instructors. As a service to the community, free one-on-one instruction is available to anyone with a temporary protective order. Gun safety and situational awareness classes that do not include live fire are also available.

Mountain Rose Defensive instructors train people from all walks of life in safe gun handling and defensive shooting. As patriotic, law-abiding citizens, we are passionate supporters of the Bill of Rights. Unfortunately, our legal system is not always sympathetic to those who have to use their firearms in self-defense. As proud members of the United States Concealed Carry Association (USCCA), we urge you to learn more about the insurance options available through USCCA to concealed carriers.
