No, owning a firearm is not required to take the class. Please do not bring your own to class. We will provide training pistols to use.
This class will be roughly 2 hours long.
The only thing you'll need to bring is yourself and as many friends as you can find to attend with you!
The Fundamentals class is basically free! It’s just $25 to reserve your spot—but here’s the kicker: that $25 goes right back in your pocket when you apply it to one of our other offerings- the MD HQL class, the MD Concealed Carry permit course, or one on one range training. It’s a no-brainer first step!

"I attended the Firearms for Beginners class and it was outstanding. I've only shot a firearm at the range once and my experience would've been more rewarding had I'd taken this class. Tony gave a great overview of the types of firearms, the difference in how they shoot, bullet sizes, loading the clip, and the proper way to aim and get a clean shot at your target. I definitely recommend it for any beginner looking to become licensed or before going to the range.."

"My sister and I attended the grand opening/open house of Tribe Defense Academy, located in Suitland, Maryland. During what was supposed to be a 5-minute presentation, Tony Hart, the instructor, gave us an over 30-minute presentation, showing us how to properly hold a gun, and proper shooting stance and allowed us to test out many of the gun range simulator programs and also answered any questions we had at the end."

"Tribe Defense Academy was an absolutely amazing experience. Not only did I learn valuable skills as it pertains to protecting me and my family, but I had the pleasure of taking the class with my wife. The class truly was a different way for us to bond.
The instructor, Tony is well versed and an expert in his field. He made the class fun while also providing the skill sets we needed. He has a great personality and gives the energy you need for a class such as this.
