Full description and what we offer
High Caliber Instruction operates from a different angle than corporate training chains. The instructor, Clay, learned to shoot from his father over three decades ago and got serious about teaching when he had to pass the skill to his own son. He's NRA-certified and holds Tennessee Certified Handgun Instructor credentials—but the real difference is the philosophy: this is a passion project, not a profit machine.
Education + Practice = Keys to Success
Classes are intentionally small. They require a minimum of 5 students—not because they need the revenue, but because that size lets everyone share experiences and get real feedback. Cold range discipline throughout: firearms stay unloaded except on the firing line. Pre-range gear inspection by the instructor. Phones off in the classroom, emergency use only on the range.
Class Location: Moose Lodge, 6903 Mundal Road, Knoxville, TN 37918
No corporate politics, no social media presence, no corporate pressure. They're not worried about "influence" or social media numbers. Classes start on time because they respect your time. They'll work with you on refunds for genuine emergencies (death in family, serious injury)—full refund if you cancel 48 hours ahead.
Their stance on Second Amendment politics: they acknowledge it's inherently political to exercise your rights, but keep classroom focus on your decisions, not anyone else's agenda.
New to handguns? Start with NRA Basic Pistol if you want comprehensive fundamentals. The carry courses cover the essentials but with less detail due to state-mandated requirements.
