Full description and what we offer
The Pikes Peak Firearms Coalition operates as a Second Amendment advocacy organization and resource clearinghouse for shooters across the Pikes Peak area and broader Colorado region. Rather than providing instruction directly, PPFC curates and lists NRA-certified instructors who teach firearm safety courses throughout El Paso County and surrounding areas.
The organization's stated mission is to act as "the Minute Man for being vigilant to threats to your natural rights to bear arms, to support political advocates of those rights, and to encourage the development of new shooting sports participants."
They strongly encourage all firearm owners to receive formal training in safe use and storage, plus regular practice. To that end, PPFC maintains a comprehensive directory of local training providers.
PPFC lists 12+ NRA-certified instructors and training schools in the Colorado Springs area offering:
| School | Location | Standout Features |
|---|---|---|
| Paradise Sales | 605 W Colorado Ave, Colorado Springs | One-on-one instruction, firearms provided, includes CO law training |
| Colorado School of Firearms (CSOF) | Colorado Springs | Army Master Certification, laser-based dry fire training, 8+ hour minimum courses |
| Precision Defensive Shooting | Colorado Springs | 2-day weekend formats, couple discounts, life/death scenario focus |
| Kenaz Tactical Group | Colorado Springs | Veteran-owned, reloading courses, advanced 3-day fighting pistol |
| Colorado Handgun Safety | Multi-location (Denver, Longmont, Pueblo, Woodland Park, Thornton) | $79 CCW class, NRA weapon courses |
| Wagon Trails Ranch | Peyton | Private onsite range, small class sizes, open/concealed carry accessories |
PPFC also maintains a curated list of shooting ranges and clubs throughout the region where members can practice with their firearms.
Class costs typically range $75–$350 depending on length and provider. Most CCW-certified courses require 8+ hours of instruction to meet Colorado State requirements—not quick "coffee and donuts" classes.
PPFC's foundational beliefs center on individual Second Amendment rights as described in the Constitution and as a "last resort" protection against tyranny. They advocate for responsible gun ownership through safety training and shooting sports development rather than restrictions on law-abiding owners.
