The Techniques You Need To Win
Our program starts with solid defensive techniques. We've spent hundreds of hours assessing and testing various shooting methods and defensive techniques. We chose the techniques and methods that we found best based on these criteria:
1. Effective: Each technique must reliably accomplish its purpose, with the overall goal of being successful in a self-defense encounter. It must also do this without incurring undesirable side effects.
2. Efficient: Each technique is designed to accomplish its purpose in the shortest time possible, without wasted motion or time, to give you the advantage in a gunfight.
3. Practicable: You must be able to reliably perform the technique, even under the stress of a gunfight. Our techniques are designed to be as straightforward as possible to minimize Murphy's Law.
The Cornerstone of our Program: Our Training Curriculum
A Guncraft course teaches you a lot of information, more than most schools teach in their so-called advanced courses. Our goal is to make you an expert with your firearm, even if you are brand new to shooting.
But the information is only useful if you retain it. So how do we cram so much into four days of training without causing a "brain dump" after the class?
Our secret is our meticulously-planned training curriculum, which has been painstakingly designed to give you maximum benefit and learning during your course. Our courses are planned down to the finest detail to ensure you learn more, retain more, and continue to improve even after the class is over. We use the same methodology and philosophies, whether you are training in handgun, rifle, or shotgun.

Logical Learning Sequence
The course is broken into a series of easy-to-understand lessons, which are ordered specifically to flow from one topic into the next. Each lesson integrates previous skills, and serves as a basis for future lessons. This ensures that you master the skills, rather than simply being introduced to them.
Building Block Process
Each skill is broken down into simple, bite-sized portions, allowing you to hone your skills a bit at a time. This also allows you to continuously practice what you have learned, even as you learn new skills. As the course progresses, you'll gradually and continuously increase the challenge level, helping you reach your own personal potential.
Hands-On Learning
There is no classroom time in a Guncraft course. You will spend most of your time up on the firing line, learning to shoot and manipulate the weapon. The topical lessons that deal with more theoretical subjects are never longer than 30 minutes, so you stay focused.
Repetition Without Monotony
Repetition is vital to ensuring you ingrain the skills you're learning, and Guncraft courses provide lots of it. At the same time, each lesson is no longer than 30 minutes, ensuring you never get bored, and stay engaged and energized.
Multi-Faceted Teaching
Lessons include a practical combination of lectures, demonstrations, interactive exercises, dry practice, shooting drills, and scenario training that caters to all learning styles.
"No Boot Camp" Environment
A high-stress environment will not help you learn better. On the contrary, you learn better and faster when you are relaxed and having fun. Our instructors will put you at ease and always treat you with patience and respect.
Consistency is Key
Because our curriculum is so detailed, you can be sure that you will get the same high-quality training experience every time you train with Guncraft.
Our Instructors Make The Difference
While our curriculum is a vital part of your learning experience, it is the expert delivery of that curriculum that gives you the quality training you need.
For our instructors, teaching is not just a job; it's a passion.
We Practice What We Preach
We are never going to ask you to do something that we cannot (or will not) do ourselves.
Expert Shooters and Teachers
Many instructors tout their success in shooting. But ultimately, an instructor's measure of success is the success of their students. Not only can Guncraft instructors shoot, they are highly skilled at helping you learn and develop as a shooter.
How can Beginners and Experienced Shooters train Side by Side?
People often wonder how a Guncraft Defensive Firearm Course can be suitable for both beginning and experienced shooters. Our courses have several features that ensure students of all backgrounds significantly improve their skills.
Topical Depth
Guncraft courses are chock-full of information and a wide array of skills taught to a high level. This might make it seem like the course is only suitable for advanced students, but it is precisely this depth that makes it suitable for shooters of all skill levels. Beginners are expected to gain a firm understanding of the high-level concepts, without needing to grasp all the finer details. Advanced students will fill holes in their knowledge and focus on fine-tuning their skills while improving their speed and consistency.
Self-Pacing
As the difficultly level of the course increases, each student can work towards his or her own goals. Experienced shooters can incorporate all aspects of the training and push for speed and consistency, while less experienced or ambitious students can omit aspects of the drills or work at a slower pace.
Individualized Coaching
Our instructors have trained thousands of students, from novices to masters, and from all walks of life. Each instructor will spend a significant amount of time working with you one-on-one. They will tailor their coaching and instruction to you individually, providing focus and guidance, and helping you make the most of your training.
A High Performance Standard
We train our students to a level of skill that surpasses average law enforcement and military training standards. Part of accomplishing that goal is performance measurements that both challenge and inform.
Scenario-Based Events
Scenarios, designed to replicate a criminal attack on your home, serve as a reality check and help you understand how you would perform in an actual life-threatening encounter.
Objective Performance Measurements
Guncraft's skills tests are among the most challenging in the gun training industry, much more so than a standard law enforcement or military qualification course. These tests will give you valuable feedback about your current skill level and how to move forward. And when you attain a Bronze, Silver, or Gold rating on a Guncraft test, you will feel the pride of accomplishment, knowing you attained something that few gun owners can.
