Firearm Safety Class 22NOV25

Welcome to Monarch Defense’s Firearm Safety Class. This is a pro bono community service project led by myself, Brian Wang, and assisted by many donors and volunteers each month who have helped to make this program a lasting success. Over the last 12 years of teaching professionally, I have striven to design a thorough hands on learning experience which answers all of the questions that you need to know to get started, especially with regards to experiential knowledge that you must learn by doing and can’t just find online. This program exists to prepare you for a successful future in protecting yourself, so that you can make wise decisions regarding buying, learning, carrying, and using firearms.

Safe firearm handling procedures
Firearm disassembly, cleaning, and reassembly
Role of weapons in society

Monarch Defense welcomes youngsters to our firearm safety program, and we will donate both tuition and ammunition for their learning. It is completely free to bring your teens or children to class.
