Growing up in Small Town PA, Brian has been around firearms his whole life. At the age of just 7, he shot his first rifle. Since then it has become a not only a passion, but an opportunity to help others with his knowledge and experience. Brian truly believes that everyone has the right to bare arms but also understands the responsibility that comes with owning and carrying a firearm. One of Brian’s main priorities in his training and experience is far more than knowing the laws surrounding gun ownership and the proper mechanics to carry, load, and discharge a firearm. Brian stresses the importance of training the mindset and the importance of understanding yourself, the situations, the environment and circumstances in which a firearm could be needed. Being aware of your surroundings, knowing the tools needed to deescalate or defuse a situation before even needing to brandish or discharge your firearm are crucial skills needed when you are a firearm owner.
