St. Louis area firearms training
I retired from law enforcement as a Sergeant after nearly 21 years and took a position with Anheuser Busch. During my law enforcement career I obtained an extensive background in firearm's training. I served as a rangemaster, firearms instructor, armorer, less than lethal instructor, rifle instructor, defensive tactics instructor and I served on a SWAT team for 5 years.
I'm a member of the Missouri Association of Law Enforcement CCW Instructors. Because of my background and experience I’m classified as a “Legal Consultant Member”. In this, I have agreed with the other LCM’s to be legal consultants (from the training aspect) for you should you find yourself in a legal situation. Just think, if the worst were to happen, you would not only have the benefit of your instructor’s training and experience but that of the other members who have agreed to act as a Legal Consultant Member.
I teach this course at a private facility in Hillsboro, Missouri that has an indoor classroom with all the amenities. The live fire portion is under cover and outdoors. I also have .22 caliber semi-automatic handguns for you to use if you do not have a handgun. I only request that you bring 70 quality .22 caliber rounds if you intend to shoot my handguns.
For this course you will need to bring eye and ear protection, 70 rounds of ammunition, firearm and please dress for the weather. The cost of this 8 hour course is $100 and I offer group discounts of $85 for 5 or more in a group. If you have access to a gun range and classroom I can travel to you.
To honor those who serve our nation I discount my course price to $85 for any active member of the Military with a valid Military ID card. This discount will remain in effect as long as I instruct this course.
If you don’t feel comfortable taking this course with me please look for another qualified / certified instructor. Not only is carrying a firearm for personal protection a fundamental right it’s also a personal responsibility. In the 21 years I was a police officer I can count on one hand the number of times I arrived for a crime in progress and was able to stop an innocent from being harmed. This is a poor statistic considering the countless number of crimes I have responded too.
If you have any questions please call or write me an email.
Stay Safe,
Sherman Graves
