"Dedicated to teaching Knowledge, Skills & Attitude." That's not just a tagline—it shows up in course design. Classes cover:
Range work uses benchrest positions first, then moves to standing shooting positions as proficiency develops. Classroom material is always tied to what you'll actually need to do safely.
Every course can be brought to your home, office, or organization. Private instruction by the hour is $40 for the first person, $15 for each additional—useful for remedial work, advanced shooting, or one-on-one confidence building.
Home security inspections and firearm appraisal services are also available for those needing written documentation for insurance purposes.
Newman's classes meet the legal training requirement. After class, you'll apply through Louisiana State Police (online or in-person):
