Full description and what we offer
Shield Firearms Training is run by Steve Hendrick, a USCCA-certified firearms instructor focused on teaching defensive skills and situational awareness. His mission is straightforward: provide training that makes people less vulnerable through knowledge of tools, techniques, situational awareness, conflict avoidance, and de-escalation—plus how to use a firearm responsibly.
Basic Handgun for New Shooters covers fundamentals for those with little to no experience: gun safety, how actions work, revolvers vs semi-automatics, magazines, ammunition, and selecting the right caliber and gun for you.
MO/KS Concealed Carry Certification is an 8-hour course that exceeds state requirements for both Missouri and Kansas permits. You'll learn use of force laws, the difference between force and deadly force, developing a personal protection plan, shooting fundamentals, and gear selection. Even though both states allow permitless carry, Missouri and Kansas CCW permits are recognized in most other states that don't allow permitless carry.
Defensive Shooting Fundamentals (Concealed Carry) focuses on counter-ambush training and includes defensive accuracy, incorporating natural body reactions, lateral movement, drawing from the holster, emergency reloads, and trigger control.
Defensive Shooting Fundamentals (Home Defense) teaches the 5 fundamentals of home defense with a home defense simulation so you can apply what you learn.
AR-15 Defensive Fundamentals covers safe handling, gearing up, zero confirmation, marksmanship, and defensive accuracy drills.
AVERT Active Shooter Training teaches stop-the-bleed techniques and survival tactics for workplace, church, or public active shooter situations.
"I like to run an engaging, interactive class where no one is embarrassed, regardless of your background with firearms. Plus, I like to have fun."
Steve's teaching style comes from years of facilitating classes at church and work, plus coaching girls' high school basketball. He chose the name "Shield" because a shield is defensive—knowledge from his classes should protect yourself, your family, and those vulnerable.
