Full description and what we offer
Redhawk Firearm Training takes a refreshingly different approach to firearms instruction. Based in Yakima, Washington, they offer handgun, rifle, and shotgun courses for every skill level—from first-time shooters to law enforcement and armed professionals. Samuel Middlebrook, the chief instructor, is nationally certified through the NRA, Sig Sauer Academy, Rangemaster, Massad Ayoob Group, and Force Science Institute, but his real credential is thousands of students who've trained with him and keep coming back.
"We don't bark commands or hand out certificates to boost our egos. We teach with care, clarity, and purpose."
They prioritize relationship over transaction. You'll hear from them before, during, and after your course. They ask about your goals, get to know your story, and stay in touch as you continue to grow. Instructors are just as likely to have a meaningful conversation after class as they are to drill on the range—and both matter.
At Redhawk, the "why" matters more than the credential. Firearms are tools—what drives them is helping people take ownership of their safety, develop true confidence, and understand the responsibility that comes with carrying a weapon. This isn't just business; it's rooted in personal conviction.
They regularly hold classes throughout the Pacific Northwest, California, and around the nation. Recent offerings include:
Course pricing ranges from $225–$300 depending on the level and location.
Their training emphasizes practical fundamentals you'll actually use:
Samuel's blog repeatedly stresses one critical point: standing still and shooting at static targets prepares you for... standing still and shooting at static targets. Real training involves movement, stress, decision-making, and honest assessment of what you can and cannot do.
1% Better, Not Massive Leaps
Their approach to improvement is realistic. Instead of trying to conquer massive skill jumps in one training session, they encourage setting goals that are: - Realistic — Achievable with a small shift in technique - Repeatable — You can do it 10 times in a row, consistently - Rejuvenating — Meeting a goal you set builds confidence
Honest Feedback, Not Ego
If something needs correcting, they show you the path forward. This isn't about pointing out failure—it's about building confidence through honest moments.
