Hold Fast is more than a name — it's a standard. In seamanship, "hold fast" means to grip the rigging and stand firm when everything around you is in motion. That's exactly what we teach here: the discipline, the technique, and the mindset to hold firm when it matters most.
We founded Hold Fast Firearms Training with a straightforward mission: deliver honest, effective firearms instruction to anyone who wants to learn — from the complete beginner who just purchased their first handgun, to the seasoned competitor looking to identify and fix what's holding them back.
Too many people own firearms without the training to use them effectively or safely. Too many training programs are either inaccessible to beginners or too basic for experienced shooters. We built Hold Fast to bridge that gap — with a structured curriculum that meets every student where they are and takes them where they want to go.
Every course, every private session, every service we offer is built around one question: does this make the student more capable, more safe, and more confident?
Every class, every session, every trigger pull starts with the four rules of firearm safety. Non-negotiable. No exceptions.
No prior experience required — ever. We've taught complete beginners and competitive shooters in the same week. Everyone deserves good instruction.
We tell students the truth about their technique, even when it's uncomfortable. That's the only way real improvement happens.
We teach skills that work in the real world, not techniques that look impressive on a range but fall apart under pressure.
The best instructors never stop being students. We stay current on techniques, equipment, and best practices so our students get the most relevant instruction available.
Responsible gun ownership is good for everyone. We take seriously our role in creating a community of well-trained, safety-conscious firearm owners.
