Our philosophy

We strive to provide the highest caliber of instruction and services which promote responsible gun ownership. Through our commitment to quality and safety, we aim to foster the knowledge, skills and attitude necessary for enjoying the freedom and responsibility of owning firearms

A gun is only as good as the owners training

Proper training is key to accuracy, efficiency and safety within the realm of firearms. To develop skills, or build new ones, practice and repetition are mandatory in every aspect of life. We hold this mantra to be absolute truth when applied to firearms.

From the novice shooter, to the expert marksman

Training is necessary wherever you fall on this spectrum. Our expert team of instructors has the ability to scale their knowledge and ‘know-how’ to all those interested in furthering themselves in this field.

Why Train With Us?

When your life and the lives of your loved ones hang in the balance, your decision to learn skills that can tip an engagement in your favor may be the most important you ever make.  The old adage, “you get what you pay for” is extremely applicable when it comes to firearms training.  There are numerous local “instructors” and “tactical training companies” out there to choose from.  Can you find classes in our area cheaper than those we offer?  Yes, you can.  If you’re looking for the cheap, easy way, then we probably are not for you.  The industry is littered with instructors who claim ties to former law enforcement teams, military teams, etc.  That said, be wary of the “former” moniker on an instructor’s resume.  Tactics are always changing and evolving.  We must evolve with it.  Choose someone who is in the game now. 

Two 7 Tactical instructors are active law enforcement officers.  Training civilians is not our primary job, but we are all experienced with training beginner level to advanced level shooters.  We train regularly and are up to date on current principles, tactics and methods utilized to keep ourselves and the public safe.  We also know how to keep things fun while prioritizing safety. Don’t worry if you have signed up for a beginner class and this is the first time you have handled your firearm. We are here to make sure you learn to do so in a safe and enjoyable manner.
