We offer a private, in-home Connecticut concealed carry permit course designed for comfort, discretion, and confidence. Instruction begins in the privacy of your own home with a comprehensive classroom lecture covering all required material, after which your instructor will personally escort you to a live-fire range to complete the mandatory shooting qualification. This one-on-one format allows clients to pursue their CT CCW permit without the social pressure or distractions of a group class, making it ideal for new shooters or those who prefer a more personal learning environment. All course materials, firearms, ammunition, and required safety equipment are provided—no firearm ownership or prior experience is necessary to successfully complete the course.
Instruction for this course is done 1 one 1, however, additional students can be added at the homeowner request. No outside students will be added to your class.

Our in-home defense training program combines structured instruction with realistic, hands-on application inside the client’s actual living space. Training begins with a focused lecture covering home defense principles, threat awareness, tactical considerations, and close quarters combat basics, then progresses to establishing strongholds, movement concepts, and defensive decision-making specific to the layout of the home. The training culminates with reality-based simulations where the instructor acts as the bad actor and forces the student to apply the lessons taught. These simulations provide the framework for reaction and enforce a careful process developed by the instructor which removes detrimental decision-making time. Following the training, instruction, and simulations students will be able to think clearly, communicate effectively, and respond decisively to threats under stress in their home.

Our Carjacking and Vehicle Defense Course equips students with practical skills to recognize and respond to vehicle-based threats. Training covers defensive driving, threat awareness, and decision-making under stress, with an emphasis on avoidance and escape. Students receive vehicle-specific firearms instruction and participate in reality-based simulations using their own vehicle, all led by experienced law enforcement and military instructors. These reality-based simulations will provide the framework and processes a driver needs to make decisions on how and when to deploy lethal force vs. when to escape. Having practiced these skills with an experienced instructor will remove the guess work and create a process that allows a driver to save themselves and their family without wasting time.
Don’t get caught in a decision-making loop! Have a process, have a plan, practice it!
