Gun Training… Does it Even Matter?

Monday, October 3rd, 2011

“There were police cars everywhere. One of the officers came on the megaphone and announced that there was a dude roaming the neighborhood who was armed and dangerous. I was home alone…”

My coworker proceeded to tell me the story of her experience over the weekend. Luckily, she wasn’t hurt, but I think I freaked her out at my question. “What would you have done if the guy came to your door or tried to get into your house?”

My officemates continued sharing frightening stories of our experiences from the past with armed men, potential burglars and police searches of neighborhoods. It is awful just how often we are put into situations that could require some serious self defense skills. I wrapped up the conversation by talking about my gun training from Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, at his intense gun training school in Nevada called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. Someone said, “Yeah, well I wouldn’t want to shoot a guy.”

I responded with, “Neither would I… but if it came down to it and I had to defend myself or protect my family… that’s the time that I would be blasted happy I had the gun training that I had.” I went on to explain that Front Sight trains students how to use a gun for self defense, but that the gun training school also trains students how to avoid needing to use the gun in the first place. The gun training instructors at Front Sight teach that a gun should only be used if there is no other solution or way out of the situation. They teach real self defense skills at Front Sight, not just how to shoot a gun.

I thought a lot about the situation that my coworker had described. I thought about what I would do if I were to be in her shoes. Then I thought about the difference between me before my Front Sight gun training and me now, after being trained by Ignatius Piazza’s professional gun training instructors. I am much more confident and comfortable with how I would handle a similar situation now, to say the least.

Front Sight offers the world’s best gun training that money can buy. In just a few days, any student of Front Sight can have shooting skills that surpass ninety nine percent of the gun owning population. Those few days with Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight can change any student, even complete beginners, into someone who can shoot better than someone that shoots guns for a living. Ignatius Piazza can make big changes in anyone’s life, including beginner shooters and well advanced and experienced marksmen. He made huge, unbelievable changes in mine, and I am so grateful for it.

Think back to the story about my coworker’s weekend. What would you do if you were in her shoes? If you do not know, or if you are uncomfortable with your answer, maybe it is time that you contact Dr. Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight and change it.

July Fourth at Front Sight

Saturday, October 1st, 2011

Independence Day is coming up so soon. At Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, many gun training students get to party alongside Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza at his amazing July Fourth extravaganza. Every year, Ignatius Piazza outdoes himself by throwing one of the world’s coolest parties, offering fun times, exciting opportunities and plenty of perks to his students that join him at the Front Sight Fourth of July party. You are not going to want to miss this.

So how do I get a sought after invitation to the July 4th party at Front Sight? Every Front Sight First Family Member (a Front Sight Lifetime Membership Card Holder) gets an invitation every year from Ignatius Piazza to join him at the celebration. But wait; before you run away screaming, thinking that this is something far out of reach because you will never be able to afford a lifetime membership for ANYTHING, much less the world’s greatest gun training school that is owned and operated by the second man in the world to become a Four Weapons Combat Master, hear me out. It may be easier to score yourself a Front Sight Lifetime Membership than you think… and it is likely way more valuable than you could ever imagine.

I am a Front Sight Diamond Lifetime Member. That means I get to go to ANY and every Front Sight gun training course, edged weapons course, empty hands self defense training course or any other self defense training course that ever comes to Front Sight. AND I can attend them as many times as I want for the rest of my life. Of course, there are other Front Sight Memberships, which each offer a different menu of self defense training courses that the card holder can attend, so you can easily find a Front Sight Lifetime Membership that fits your needs. I just wanted the Diamond Membership because… well… it’s awesome. Do I have a crazy job that pays me an insane amount of money? No. Do I have some sort of vault with piles of money in it? No. Did I inherit riches and now have extra money to throw away? No. I have a regular job. I pay bills. I have to budget. I buy jeans at secondhand and discount stores because I need to save money. But I was easily able to afford a Front Sight Lifetime Membership and secure myself that invitation to Dr. Ignatius Piazza’s Fourth of July Party.

You know, you can afford a Lifetime Membership at Front Sight, too. I am going to let you in on a little secret. I didn’t pay full price for my membership. I got my Front Sight membership at an almost laughable price because I paid attention to Ignatius Piazza’s FREE NEWSLETTERS and the Front Sight Blog Postings. Ignatius Piazza often offers ridiculous deals on gun training courses and gun training memberships.
