Full description and what we offer
Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, founded and directed by Dr. Ignatius Piazza, trains shooters to military standards in handgun, rifle, and tactical shotgun use—but without the drill sergeant mentality. The school's approach focuses on practical defensive skills for law enforcement, military personnel, and armed civilians.
Students range from complete beginners to experienced shooters. The school sees people who've shot their whole lives learning new technique and precision alongside folks who purchased their first firearm just days before class. Recent testimonials include:
"I have been hunting and shooting my whole life and in four days I learned more technique to become a safer, more skilled gun owner."
"I have only shot a gun a few times and just purchased a new gun 3 days before class."
Students travel nationally to attend. One recent participant from New York City came back so impressed that his friends are now asking to join him on his next trip.

The email list has thousands of subscribers receiving approximately one training report every other day. The school explicitly does not sell or transfer email addresses.
