History

Established in 2013.

Patriot Firearm Training Academy, Inc. sets a high standard for firearm training in southwest Florida.

Unfortunately, the firearm training industry is flooded with non-​standardized «$ 50 Concealed Carry» classes targeted at how easy it is to obtain your Florida Concealed Weapon or Firearm License.

These $ 50 classes focus on the lowest possible amount of time, and the least amount of knowledge and experience possible to squeak by the state qualifications.

Think about it. You will be carrying a concealed firearm. Do you want to be a safe, confident, proficient and responsibly armed citizen, or do you just want to squeak by to get your license?

By not getting the appropriate, nationally recognized training necessary, you could be a danger to yourself and the others around you. Owning and carrying a firearm are very serious responsibilities. You should train accordingly.

Our courses EXCEED the requirements for a Florida CWFL, and we will assist you in applying for free.

Business Owner

Joe is an NRA certified instructor in many of the different disciplines the NRA has to offer. He has over 25 years of professional teaching experience. Joe has been employed as an adult community education teacher, scuba diving instructor, and has mentored many professionals before retiring from his 30 year career as an IT Executive.

Being a excellent shooter, ex-​law enforcement, or former military, is very respectable and impressive, however, it does not necessarily make you a good instructor. This holds true for practically anything. Being good at doing something is very different than being good at teaching something.
