Jericho Tactical Academy

Jericho Tactical Academy operates locations in Iron Station and teaches across multiple ranges in the Charlotte area. Their philosophy centers on three core elements: legal considerations, moral considerations, and tactical execution.

• •Legal foundation matters. Life-threatening situations happen fast and unpredictably. You need to know self-defense law cold—not just memorize it, but understand how stress affects judgment in the moment. That's why they integrate simulator training and scenario-based work into every course.

• •They teach thinking, not just shooting. Their approach is holistic: learning hand-to-hand combat (Krav Maga) alongside firearms means lethal force isn't your only option when things go sideways. The context of your environment, who's around you, and your ability to decide before you act is what saves lives.

Handgun #401 specifically covers one-handed shooting, weapon retention, shooting while moving, target identification under stress, and armed response scenarios. Carbine courses emphasize CQB concepts, marksmanship, and weapon mechanics in open ranges where movement and cover work are possible.

They run weekly technical training plus specialized scenario-based courses that let you actually see how your defensive handgun functions under realistic conditions.

Jericho also offers Krav Maga classes, fitness programming, CPR certification, and STOP THE BLEED® training. They host corporate events and provide security consulting and law enforcement training.

Their Armed & Ready Club is for people who carry daily and want ongoing training consistency with like-minded peers—membership gives you access to top-tier programming and a place to maintain skills between courses.
