Elite CCW and Firearm Training

Elite CCW operates an indoor range and training facility in Fountain Valley built around what actually matters: preparing people for defensive situations, not just checking boxes. The operation is run by Mike Duda, who supervised Orange County Sheriff's CCW unit from 2017-2019 and knows exactly what permit applicants need.

CCW Permit Classes - 2-day in-person course (16 hours) covering Orange County, Los Angeles, and San Diego permits - Includes required range qualification and training certificate - Arizona, Utah, and Florida permit guidance also available

Training Options - Basic Pistol: 1-on-1 instruction for new owners covering safe handling, loading, ammunition basics, and shooting fundamentals - Simulator Training: State-of-the-art simulator room for real-world scenario practice before or instead of live fire - Private Live Fire & Simulator Sessions: 1-on-1 instruction with certified instructors

Additional Services - Firearm Safety Certificate (FSC) testing - California requirement for all gun purchases - On-site live scan fingerprinting - Certified Glock and Sig Sauer armorer services

Indoor range with computerized targeting system, lead-free ammunition, and commercial air filters for clean air during training

Elite CCW emphasizes that they're not running a volume operation. The facility mixes different skill levels and backgrounds - new gun owners alongside experienced shooters. Instructors work toward where each student wants to be, whether that's home defense competency or getting cleared to carry across multiple states.
