Montana Tactical Firearms Instruction

Montana Tactical Firearms Instruction (MTFI) has been the go-to for firearms training in southwest Montana since 2008. Located in Three Forks just off I-90, they're a short drive from Bozeman and the surrounding Gallatin Valley.

Their approach is straightforward: no military posturing, no yelling, no egos. Instead, MTFI focuses on helping everyday people become safe, confident, and competent shooters—whether you're picking up a gun for the first time or refining advanced skills.

• •Montana Concealed Carry certification (ladies-only and co-ed classes)
• •Handgun training — from fundamentals to critical defense and red dot sights
• •Carbine and shotgun courses — tactical and practical applications
• •Bolt-action rifle instruction
• •Specialized training — active shooter response, sexual assault prevention, bear awareness and defense
• •Interactive Video-Based Judgment Simulator Training — the only facility in the valley offering this decision-making tool
• •NRA Range Safety Officer Certification
• •Church security team development

MTFI's setup is built for efficiency. Two fully equipped classrooms sit steps from their on-site range, allowing instructors to move seamlessly between instruction and live-fire practice. Clean restrooms and a full kitchen keep you comfortable throughout training. Everything you need is here—no bus rides to public land or makeshift setups.

Their instructors bring civilian, law enforcement, and military experience, but they're mentors first. MTFI has female instructors on staff and specifically designs many classes for women. With small class sizes and low student-to-instructor ratios, you'll get the personal attention that matters.
