Hi, my name is J.C. Smith. My background is in the military as a Marine Corps Military Police Officer, law enforcement as a patrol officer, field training officer, and detective, and many roles in the security industry. I have been a firearms enthusiast since 1973, starting with my youth raised in the country, then increasing with my military and law enforcement experiences. I enjoyed competing in pistol competitions throughout my law enforcement career. My approach to training begins and ends with SAFETY (most important aspect), with a balanced combination of practical applications and accuracy. I first became an instructor in 1984 and thoroughly enjoy sharing my knowledge with others. Feel free to call me anytime to discuss your needs or to just chat about shooting. Sometimes I don't get my emails through this site, so please give me a call or text.Thanks for visiting my site.

The Perfect Gift
Don't know what to get that special someone that loves to shoot? Someone thinking about taking a firearms course but just hasn't gotten around to doing it or can't decide which is best for them? Get a Stay Deft Hall Pass and they can schedule their class later. Contact us for more information.
Contact us with any questions about our services. STAY DEFT.
If you are new to shooting and are thinking about taking a course, then give me a call. I will meet with you and go over safety and maintenance for your firearm. If you don't know what firearm to get or if you have one that you aren't confident with, I will work with you for a couple sessions to get you to the point where you will be ready for the class. I don't want you to fail. I want you to be confident and comfortable with your gun. In a case where you aren't sure what gun to get I will work with you on that too. You will have to pay for your range time and ammo, but my time is free.
Q. What is the catch on the free training?
A. All I ask is that you sign up for a class and put down a non-refundable deposit towards the cost of the class. I don't consider this a catch and I ask this only because I have done this for a couple of people and then they took courses from someone else who was a friend, a friend of a friend, or in one instance where the instructor knew I did this so he told them to take me up on the free training then they could take his class. The deposit tells me you are serious about the training and are not using me just for the free training.
Q. How much are range fees?
A. It depends on the area we are going to shoot. I use several different ranges and the prices vary.
Q. How many times will we have to meet and train before I can take the course?
A. That depends on you. I have had people spend a couple hours with me on the range, and I had an older lady who took a total of just under 5 hours. I will get you to your "class ready" status as quick as possible.
