You could watch YouTube videos and figure things out by yourself, but if you get something wrong, no one will be there to coach or guide you, and a simple error could plague your learning and development as a shooter. If you want to go to the public range and entertain yourself at 100 yards with your elbows on a table, be my guest, but that sounds boring to me. If you want to go out to public land and have stray bullets wiz past you from random strangers who don’t care about your safety, be my guest to talk with my friend and student Mike who got shot through both legs. If you want to be forever an “experienced beginner”, be my guest. Youtube Tactical University is always free, but your time is valuable. Or, take the bold first step to beginning your formal education on combat rifle craft from a seasoned professional.

This class is designed to provide beginners with a solid introduction to the attitude, skill, and knowledge you will need to succeed in the journey towards becoming expert riflemen. 

My name is Brian Wang. I have been teaching firearm safety, self defense, and the combat use of firearms for 11 years professionally.  I have been a teacher since 2006. I have trained kung fu since 2007. I completed sniper school in 2010. I have been licensed to carry a concealed weapon since 2013. I have traveled the country to learn from the best mentors and take the best instructor certification programs available. I have been to war and watched friends die. I have survived a guided missile, helicopter rockets, artillery bombardment, aviation bombs, strafing by infantry fighting vehicle cannon, and disease on the front line. I trained, equipped, and in large part gave birth to the Ukrainian 47th Mechanized Brigade’s snipers and designated marksmen. I am a father and a husband and a small business owner. I have taught over 10,000 students in Florida, Texas, Arizona, Arkansas, Nevada, Ukraine, and California. I own and operate at 300 acre dedicated tactical training facility only 1 hour from the bay area. It is my honor to be your instructor, and to bring you all of this knowledge for free.

I have striven to design a thorough hands on learning experience, with the most detail in the shortest time possible. Expect 50% of your class to be lecture and discussion, and 50% to be hands on with guns, shooting, and moving.
