"I try to live each day as if it were my last."
- Michael Edward Lucas
Upon retiring from my Real Estate Brokerage in 2000, I began conducting firearms education and training classes on a regular basis, including NRA Range Safety Officer Certification, NRA Instructor Certification Workshops in the pistol, rife, shotgun disciplines, and Refuse To Be A Victim Instructor Development Workshops. Being actively involved in the shooting sports community, sponsoring USA Shooting and NRA Shooting Sports Programs, as well as offering private shooting instruction on a regular basis, I discovered a strong demand for qualified firearms instructors. To help meet this demand in a small way, I frequently conduct multi-discipline NRA Instruc
tor Certification Workshops as well as Refuse To Be A Victim Instructor Development Workshops in both Virginia and Florida for those individuals who want to share their firearms knowledge and skills with others, and are willing to make a commitment to teach NRA training courses in their communities.
I continue to be very fortunate in my commitment to being a firearms trainer; meeting the caliber of people, with whom I am associated, who share a similar passion for firearms safety and the shooting sports. Among them; professional and Olympic athletes, actors, motion picture stunt people, politicians, tactical law enforcement, SpecWar, NATO and other military personnel, security, medical as well as world class shooting competitors to name a few. To share and learn from these special people in their varied walks of life and experiences, has and continues to be both gratifying and rewarding. A special thanks to each of you.
