Hand-To-Gun

Hand-To-Gun (HTG) is built around two names: Rob Leatham and Steve Tarani. Leatham holds 30 USPSA/IPSC National Championship titles and 8 IPSC World Championships—he's one of the most-winning action shooters in history. For 30+ years, he's trained thousands of clients and worked with top military and law enforcement agencies. Tarani brings 25+ years in defense, law enforcement, and intelligence communities, holding federal certifications from DoD, NSA, FBI, DHS, and DEA.
