Class Schedule

Safe Aim Defense is meant to be a flexible training solution built around your time and needs to provide tailored guidance near you in the greater Reno or Carson City area utilizing one of several gun ranges appropriate to the area closest to you.

We’ve narrowed our focus to:

  • Brand new/novice gun owners
  • Solo real estate agents showing homes and open houses

Essentially, those who don’t have a career around firearms and are in need of advice to cut through a lot of the clutter that can obscure good information. If you are planning to buy, have just purchased or have owned a gun for a short time and want to receive experienced guidance, these classes are for you.

What You’ll Learn

  • Handgun Features (knowing your firearm)
  • Handgun Safety
  • Safe Storage
  • Marksmanship Fundamentals
  • Handgun Techniques
  • Legal Aspects of Gun Ownership
  • Aftermath of an Encounter
  • Conflict Avoidance and De-escalation

We also provide a specialized, half-day class for real estate agents on personal protection and defensive strategies, both lethal and non-lethal, to help keep safe when performing solo home showings and open houses.

What You’ll Learn

This is a private, one-on-one training session with either a one hour live fire range session at the end of the classroom portion or it can a one hour non-lethal solutions session.

This will be a dynamic presentation where questions are encouraged and we ensure we cover the topics most important to you.

  • Recognizing the unique aspects of being a real estate agent that put you at risk of a violent encounter.
  • Learning to avoid violent encounters through situational awareness techniques.
  • How to detect threat indicators early.
  • The physical and psychological effects you might experience during an incident.
  • How to employ various defensive strategies.
  • Defensive options — both armed and unarmed.
  • How to treat various traumatic and medical emergencies.

Our goal is that after you receive your training from us you will have the skills and motivation to attend the range as regularly as possible to maintain proficiency, reinforce safe practices and try new techniques to push your abilities and see what works best for your lifestyle.

If you need more information you can contact us directly to discuss your needs, what you are hoping to learn, burning questions you may have and then we can develop a plan to meet your training needs.
