Front Sight: Getting Better Than Pretty Good

Monday, August 13th, 2012

How many times have you gone to a shooting range in your life? Have you ever had professional gun training or have you just learned how to shoot over the span of your life? Maybe your dad taught you how to shoot. Maybe you have been shooting clay pigeons for years and years. Maybe you grew up on a farm and are pretty good with a gun. Dr. Ignatius Piazza was pretty good with a gun. He owned guns and shot them regularly at shooting ranges. He could shoot more accurately than most people and was quite confident. Then one night in 1988, he realized that even though he was pretty good, pretty good just was not good enough. His neighborhood got torn up by a drive by shooting and Ignatius Piazza saw, for the first time, that being pretty good wasn’t going to be able to protect himself and save lives. Luckily, he and his family were not harmed in this drive by shooting, but Ignatius Piazza learned a valuable lesson: If he was going to have the skill and ability to protect his family, he was going to need to be better than pretty good.

Today, Ignatius Piazza is way more than just pretty good. He is one of a handful of people in the world called a Four Weapons Combat Master. He was the second man in the world who earned this title, and he earned it through rigorous study, intense gun training and thousands upon thousands of hours of shooting practice before ultimately passing the Four Weapons Combat Master test. How would you like to have a man like Ignatius Piazza give you YOUR gun training? Better yet, how would you like to take a gun training course designed by Ignatius Piazza?

Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, a gun training school located on more than five hundred fifty acres in Pahrump, Nevada, was created by Ignatius Piazza. He opened the gun training school in April of 1996 in order to share his knowledge of gun safety, self defense and weapons use with the world. He formed and designed all of the gun training courses at Front Sight to include only the best shooting and safety techniques in the world, making Front Sight the world’s number one gun training school.

Ignatius Piazza can take any shooter, whether that person is pretty good, already amazing, really bad or an absolute novice, and turn that shooter into something incredible. After one self defense gun training course from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight, anyone can have the shooting skills and abilities that exceed ninety nine percent of the gun owning population. That even includes people that use guns for a living! So yes, a gun training course from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight can teach anyone how to be a better shooter than armed professionals.

When it comes down to it, if you want to really be able to defend yourself and your family in life threatening situations, you’ve gotta be better than just pretty good. Ignatius Piazza can give you all of the skills that you need to get safe, stay safe and keep your family safe.

Front Sight: Become the Shooter You Want to Be

Wednesday, August 1st, 2012

If you have been shooting guns for twenty some odd years, you are probably a pretty proficient shooter. Would it irk you if some young kid stood next to you at the shooting range and was better than you? What if you have been shooting clay pigeons longer than he has been alive? Something like that doesn’t sound like too much fun. You may think that you have been shooting so long, you already know everything there is to know about guns and shooting. You may think that there isn’t really much hope to get any better than you already are. I am here to tell you that no matter how long you have been shooting, Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza has some things to show you. He has helped even military men (guys who have been professionally trained for over twenty years) improve their shooting speed, accuracy and safety. How does he do it?

His gun training school, called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute is listed as the number one gun training school in the world. Ignatius Piazza can teach you things you have never even thought about that will help improve your shooting immensely. Before starting Front Sight, Ignatius Piazza owned and operated a chiropractic business. He made the decision to learn how to use a gun to save lives when his neighborhood was ravaged by a drive by shooting. Before then, he was just like you: a much experienced shooter who was pretty darn good at the range. The drive by shooting woke him up to the realization that while he was really good with a gun, he didn’t know how to use one when his life and the lives of his family members depended on it.

Ignatius Piazza then sought out gun training from the best gun training schools around. He put in thousands upon thousands of hours of research, training and practice, until finally, he became the second man in the world to secure a Four Weapons Combat Master Certificate. Realizing that good gun training was hard to find, Ignatius Piazza vowed to make it easier for other people than it was for him. He wanted to make sure that people found the gun training that they wanted and deserved. Hence, he opened Front Sight Firearms Training Institute in April of 1996, and has since continued to open its doors to law abiding citizens from all over the world.

I have personally witnessed gun training instructors from other gun training schools say they learned way more than they thought they would from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight. They exclaimed that they really didn’t know everything they didn’t know before attending Front Sight. I have witnessed military personnel congratulate Front Sight and Front Sight’s gun training instructors at providing such an incredible learning experience. I have witnessed already amazing shooters improve insurmountably.  Now it is your turn. Now is your chance. Become the shooter you have always wanted to be with Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute.

Gun Training for Regular Joes

Saturday, January 9th, 2010

I consider myself a – somewhat – regular person. I am in my twenties, have a full time job and a part time job, friends, hobbies and other interests. Like you, I have dreams and goals for my life and expect to reach them. The last thing I want, as it is with many of us, is for those dreams to never be achieved, due to our lives getting cut short. I am a woman, so, naturally, I need to be aware of the people around me, as the mere fact of my gender puts me at risk for things like rape, robberies and murder. But I am a regular person – I don’t go out looking for trouble – nothing like that would ever happen to me, right?

Wrong.

Like me, you probably consider yourself a somewhat regular person. But please be aware that you do not have to be “out asking for it” to get attacked. Bad things happen to good people all the time, as sad as it is. Are you female? Your size, strength and gender puts you at risk for the things I listed above. You need to learn self defense techniques such as gun training and knife training to prepare you to handle those unfortunate situations. Are you male? Unfortunately, you are not off the hook. Sure, you are statistically less likely to be raped or things of the like, but that does not mean that it doesn’t happen. Take the story of Bobby M., for example. Bobby was robbed at gunpoint in broad daylight. It shocked him, and since he had never had any formal gun training or self defense training, he just ended up letting it happen. He later realized that he was lucky. It could have been worse. He had a wife and three kids at home, so if anything were to happen to him, where would they be? Bobby considers himself a regular person – and it happened to him. Don’t let something like this happen to you!

Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, the gun training school near Las Vegas, Nevada can give you that gun training that you need to protect yourself in situations like Bobby’s. Founder and director of Front Sight, Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, wants to get you armed and trained so that you never have to be a victim like this. Front Sight offers useful gun training courses like shotgun training, rifle training and handgun training, as well as specialized gun training courses like night gun training and personalized gun training. Everyone has different goals and ideas about what they want. Ignatius Piazza designed Front Sight to be a custom fit gun training program, just for you, so that you will get what YOU want and need out of it, not necessarily what someone else wants. Being the number one gun training school in the world, Front Sight will train you in self defense better than you have ever been trained before.

No matter how much you think, “That stuff will NEVER happen to me,” be aware that it is not an impossibility. Get yourself protected. Get yourself to Front Sight!

When the Early Release of Prisoners Backfires

Monday, December 28th, 2009

Do you know who Lily Burk is? Well, do you know who Lily Burk was? She was a seventeen year old who was murdered this past summer.

Then there is Charlie Samuel. He was convicted of petty theft and sent to prison. Since Samuel was not considered a “violent criminal,” he was released under California’s early release of prisoners program and then violated parole a few weeks after. Due to the economy’s budget crisis and California’s new plan to not send parole violators back to prison, Samuel was kept out of custody and sent to drug treatment. He then was released from the drug rehabilitation program on a short term pass. Out of prison and out of drug treatment, Samuel murdered Burk.

So let’s rephrase that original paragraph. Do you know who Lily Burk was? She was a seventeen year old who was murdered this past summer by a criminal who was released early from prison. Without this ridiculous new law, Ms. Burk would still be alive. How does that tickle you?

The early release of prisoners program is an attempt to save states money. But what is the cost of saving money? Missing jewelry and family heirlooms from your home?

What Would You Do for a Cigarette?

Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

People will do crazy things to satisfy an addiction. We keep hearing the phrase “Cigarettes kill.” Apparently, not sharing your cigarettes kills, too. Recently in Nevada, a woman lost her life over a cigarette. Twenty two year old Ryan Bonnet asked Eileen Pruitt for a cigarette. She said no. So, naturally, he beat her to death. Really? Is someone you know addicted to cigarettes? Is someone you know THAT addicted to cigarettes? What is worse… is this is not the first time something like this has happened! During the spring, twenty nine year old Dawn Shipley was shot when she refused to give someone cigarettes. He approached her and her boyfriend, asked for her cigarettes. She said no. He started yelling at her, pulled out a handgun and shot her. There are a lot of things I really, really like. And there are a lot of things I would rather not do without. But killing someone over one of them? I guess just because I think it is insane does not mean the scary people out there will not do it. All we can do is protect ourselves. We can do this by getting self defense training and gun training from the world’s best gun training school, Front Sight Firearms Training School, located just outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. Front Sight was founded over thirteen years ago by a man named Dr. Ignatius Piazza. (more…)

Get Gun Training – Because Crime Keeps Happening

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

The man who killed seven people in a restaurant in Chicago back in 1993, James Degorski, has finally been convicted and sentenced to life in prison. He brutally murdered two of the Chicago restaurant’s owners and five of their employees by shooting them, stabbing them and then stacking them in the walk in refrigerator. The co-defendant in the Degorski murder case, Juan Luna, was convicted of murder two years ago and was also sentenced to life in prison. It seems like we hear about murders every day. Either a new slaying has occurred or people are finally getting convicted for past ones. If a day goes by where we do not have to endure hearing about one more murder, other viscous crimes still plague our newscasts. Rapes, robberies, carjackings, you name it – our news stories are just littered with unfortunate events. When will people realize that until we do something about it, these things will just keep happening? Violent crimes can be prevented! Let’s start taking action! (more…)

Gun Training Protects Your Home

Monday, December 14th, 2009

Imagine yourself at home, hanging out with your wife. Then, all of a sudden, your doorknob starts to jiggle. You can hear muffled voices on the other side of your door. You hear the sound of low clicking as the knob continues to move. Then you hear it. One loud CLICK and your door swings open. Three masked beings stand in your doorway. They barge in. In their gloved hands, you see a gun. What do you do? Are you ready? Are you safe? Is your wife safe? Take a moment to consider the story. Sound kind of far fetched? Okay, well, consider this.

A couple was murdered last week and as a result, five people have been arrested. Fifty three year old Willem le Roux appeared to have been killed due to multiple head injuries. His wife, fifty year old Julie Roux was killed by a gunshot to her head. In addition, several of their belongings were recovered, meaning the couple was murdered during a robbery. The Roux murder has brought attention, once again, to the fact that home burglaries are on the rise. (more…)

Positive Gun Training

Friday, December 11th, 2009

Investigators are still searching for the man who shot and killed a man in Springfield, Massachusetts this week. Unfortunately, this was the fifteenth murder this year in the city! The twenty three year old man who was killed was only shot once in the chest, and that is what did it. He died later at the hospital. Front Sight Firearms Training Institute wants to prevent deaths like this by getting as many people as possible armed and trained. If people are armed with weapons and know how to use them safely and effectively, there will be less crime like this. Dr. Ignatius Piazza, founder and director of Front Sight, firmly believes in this and will go out of his way to get YOU the gun training that you need to stay safe in today’s society. With crime on the rise, self defense training and gun training are absolutely imperative. At Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, gun training is not something that is taken lightly. All of the gun training courses at Front Sight are taught professionally, enthusiastically and leaving nothing for you to figure out for yourself. After your first self defense gun training course from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight, you will be able to out shoot pretty much everyone you know… even if you know people who shoot guns for a living! Military men even endorse Front Sight, saying they learned more in one weekend from Ignatius Piazza than they had in boot camp and in twenty plus years in the service. And to add to it, Front Sight’s gun training instructors are NICE! Imagine that! You would think that to get the results that Front Sight reaps, the gun training instructors would have to be strict and forceful, much like drill sergeants. However, Ignatius Piazza ensures you that Front Sight is just the opposite – which is one of the reasons that Front Sight’s gun training is so successful. People respond better to positive encouragement as opposed to negativity and rude attitudes. Front Sight’s gun training instructors’ uplifting demeanor helps students feel comfortable with what they are doing. Ignatius Piazza’s students rave about how wonderful their gun training instructors are! (more…)

When Fist Fights Leave the Schoolyard

Monday, December 7th, 2009

Early in the morning a fight broke out between two men out on the street. As a result, one of the men faces murder charges, as his sixty seven year old victim suffered serious head trauma and later died. You would think that as a mature adult, you would not die as the result of a fist fight on the street. Fists fights are for school age kids and drunken people in bars, not a elderly person out for an early morning walk. Some people are just unbelievable.

Self defense training is important at any age. Do you find yourself getting older? As you age, do you feel you are not as strong as you once were? Do you feel like your better days are behind you? They are not! Dr. Ignatius Piazza of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute can show you how to protect yourself and protect your family at all times, regardless of your size, strength or age. Front Sight’s gun training courses teach amazing gun handling techniques and self defense skills. In fact, Front Sight has been rated the number one gun training school in the world! It is the best place to go when you decide that you do not want to become a victim. (more…)

Ease Anxieties with Front Sight!

Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

William Inmon, a twenty one year old from Apache County in Arizona said some pretty scary things to authorities this week. He pleaded guilty to three murders, one being of a sixteen year old boy, one a sixty year old man, and the other a seventy two year old man, and then continued by saying he would have just kept on killing people if he had not been caught. People like this pose a threat to citizens everywhere, but we do not need to be afraid of them. We can protect ourselves by getting self defense training and gun training from the world’s greatest gun training instructor, Dr. Ignatius Piazza. As a Four Weapons Combat Master, Ignatius Piazza has an extremely diverse knowledge of several different kinds of weapons and knows how to use guns safely and effectively. Ignatius Piazza has undergone thousands upon thousands of hours of gun training and it has paid off immensely, because now he owns Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, the best place in the world to receive gun training of any kind.
