If you have gotten gun training in the past, are you confident in your shooting skills and abilities? You may think you are a pretty good shooter, but let me ask you a few questions.
Do you know more about guns and shooting a gun than ninety nine percent of the gun owning population?
Can you present a weapon from a concealed holster, aim AND shoot on target within 1.5 seconds?
Can you shoot accurately while standing in little to no lighting?
Can you diagnose and repair a Type 3 malfunction of your gun in six seconds or less?
Do you know what at Type 3 malfunction is?
Can you recognize a threat before it happens?
Do you know how to save a hostage that is being held at gunpoint?
Do you know how to handle multiple attackers at once?
Can you win a shooting competition?
Do you know where to shoot and how many times to shoot an attacker to be compliant with the court system and protect yourself in a court of law?
Do you know how to prevent an attack?
Do you know how to prevent yourself from having to use a gun?
If you answered, “Yes!” to all of these questions, I’d be willing to bet you likely got your gun training from Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute in Nevada. Front Sight, located about an hour away from Las Vegas, is the world’s best place to receive gun training of any kind. As a student of Ignatius Piazza, you will learn ALL of the things listed above, AND tons of other stuff, as well. By the end of your first self defense gun training course from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight, you will have the shooting skills and abilities that surpass ninety nine percent of the gun owning population. Yes, I said after your FIRST gun training course. Just a few days with Dr. Ignatius Piazza will change your shooting completely.
If you are like most Front Sight students, one gun training course is just the beginning. Front Sight is so interesting, so exciting, so educational and so fun that people often go back time and time again for more time with Ignatius Piazza and his team of highly trained gun training professional instructors. Front Sight becomes somewhat of a hobby to many people because they have such a great time there. On top of having a blast, Front Sight teaches students so much about shooting and gun training that it is pretty much unfathomable. I was greatly taken aback my first time at Front Sight.
If you can’t answer yes to all of those questions listed above, I strongly urge you to take a look at Front Sight’s website and see just what Ignatius Piazza can do for you. Before you know it, you could be shooting better than law enforcement and military personnel, and all it will take is a few short days with the amazing Front Sight gun training instructors.

When was the last time you went to a shooting range? How did you feel about your gun handling abilities? Were you confident in them, or were you embarrassed to shoot in front of your friends? Maybe you were somewhere in between. I can tell you that the last time I went shooting was pretty much epic. After attending a Four Day Defensive Handgun Training Course at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute in Pahrump, Nevada, my shooting on the range was impressive to myself and to the person I was with. I am now super confident in my gun handling and shooting skills and I know that I know how to SAFELY handle a gun.
Founder and Director of Front Sight, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, created an incredible gun training program to train every day people how to shoot safely, quickly and effectively in life threatening and stressful situations. After just one self defense gun training course from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight, you can have shooting skills and abilities that beat ninety nine percent of the gun owning population. It may sound far fetched, but after your first gun training course at Front Sight, you will actually know more about how to use a gun and how to shoot perfectly than most people who have been training with guns for years.
Let me put it this way. Many uniformed men and women attend Front Sight on a regular basis, claiming that they learn more in one weekend with Ignatius Piazza than they have in their entire term in the military or in law enforcement… and some of these guys have been uniformed for over twenty years! Front Sight leaves people thinking, “How does Ignatius Piazza fit twenty years of gun training into four fast moving days?” Well, to begin, Ignatius Piazza is not your typical gun training instructor. He is a Four Weapons Combat Master, who trained for thousands upon thousands upon thousands of hours with the best gun training instructors of the time. He noticed that every gun training program he attended had strengths and weaknesses… so he simply adopted the strengths and dropped the weaknesses, leaving him with the cream of the crop gun training program.
To be honest, I look back at my gun training course at Front Sight and I wonder how I learned so much. How did I receive so much information AND remember it all? How do I STILL remember all of the things I learned from Ignatius Piazza’s gun training instructors? The gun training instructors at Front Sight have a way about them. They keep things fast paced, but never leave anyone behind. Somehow, during my self defense gun training course, everyone was on the same page. I may have been the least experienced shooter there. We had gun training instructors from other schools and law enforcement officers in our class… and Front Sight’s curriculum kept us all together at a point that was challenging to everyone (even the experienced shooters) but difficult for no one (even people like me). Ignatius Piazza is, truth be told, a miracle worker.

If you were standing in line at the ATM, minding your own business, and someone near you in line pulled out a gun, what would you do?
If you were playing with your kids after dinner and suddenly a strange man entered your house, what would you do?
If you were walking down the street with your wife and someone grabbed her away from you, holding a gun to her head, what would you do?
Are you prepared to respond?
Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, the best gun training school in the nation, can give you the skills you need to be able to respond to any of these situations. Located in Pahrump, Nevada, Front Sight offers over five hundred acres of land to meet all of your gun training and self defense training needs. Several shooting ranges are strategically positioned throughout the premises to allow for handgun training, rifle training, shotgun training, automatic weapons training, knife training, sniper training, rope and rappelling training, as well as a number of other self defense training options.
Created by Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, Front Sight teaches students how to use a gun in the real world, not just at the shooting range. Meaning, students of Front Sight learn more than how to shoot a stationary paper target with an unlimited amount of time. They learn how to handle home invasion scenarios. They learn how to handle kidnapping and hostage situations. Front Sight students even learn how to respond to multiple attackers at once. Front Sight will prepare you to use a gun when your life depends on it.
Ignatius Piazza’s gun training program trains students to be aware of their surroundings. After attending your first gun training course at Front Sight, you will realize you pick up more on what is going on around you. You will notice people that you would not have seen before. You will remember details that may surprise you. And you will be able to recognize a threat sooner than the average person. What does this mean to you? This means that you will have more reaction time during a threatening situation. More reaction time means you have a greater chance of escaping. Do I need to go into the benefits of having a greater chance of escape?
Most gun training schools will teach you how to shoot a target. You might even learn how to shoot that target pretty accurately. But what if that target is a person? What if that target is running away? What if that target is running away with your child in his arms? Do the other gun training schools prepare you for that? Try out one of Ignatius Piazza’s intense gun training courses at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. You will learn everything you need to know about using a gun to save a life, whether it be the life of a loved one or yourself. No other gun training school comes close to the level of training you will receive from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight, guaranteed.

How old are your kids? Are any of them getting ready to go off to college? You’ve probably talked with them about school, good grades and not getting mixed in with the wrong crowd. But what are you doing actively as a parent to help protect them? Self defense training and gun training is a great option for teens that are about to leave for college. They will be on their own, away from you. They need to be able to protect themselves, because you will not be around to do it for them.
Are you a teen getting ready to move out? Have you received any gun training or any other form of self defense training? If not, why not?
Let me share with you a quick story about myself. Before I had ever even heard of the gun training school called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute or Dr. Ignatius Piazza, I was one of those people that figured I would never be attacked. Those things happen to other people… not me and not my friends. I knew that if I happened to be attacked, (which I wouldn’t be), my adrenaline would overcome me and I would be able to escape. Then when I was eighteen, one of my best male friends, if not the best male friend of mine at the time, took me on a walk to talk about the breakup I had just gone through. I trusted him, so I didn’t think about the fact that it was dark outside and there were no cars driving by. He took me to his old school ground. He was such a good friend of mine, showing me around his school, so I didn’t question walking down some stairs as he was telling me stories of his past. Once down the stairs I realized that we were completely hidden from the outside world. He pushed me against a wall and to the concrete ground and tried to have sex with me, despite the fact that I didn’t want to. Did my adrenaline kick in and take over? No. I shut down completely. I wasn’t prepared. Did I know how to defend myself and push him off? No. I had never taken a self defense course and he outweighed me by forty or fifty pounds. Luckily, he stopped for a moment too long and I was able to break free. But what if he hadn’t stopped? Most predators won’t.
Now that I have attended Front Sight, I feel more confident in myself and my ability to handle a threatening situation. This gun training school teaches true self defense. Ignatius Piazza (the founder and director of Front Sight) and his gun training instructors teach students how to not only handle threatening situations, but how to prevent attacks. Had I attended a gun training course at Front Sight before this attempted attack, I could have been more aware of what was going on, saw the signs in the environment and in him, and prevented anything from ever happening.
I believe that all teens, especially those teens about to be on their own, should attend a self defense gun training course from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight. Don’t wait until after you have had my experience. Front Sight will help you prevent these attacks from even happening in the first place.

Shooting a gun is the same during the day as it is at night, right?
It is frightening to hear how many people will actually answer this question with a strong, “Yes.” I am scared for those people to have to use a gun to defend their lives or the lives of their loved ones in the middle of the night. Using a gun at night or in low lighting is much, much different than using one in the middle of the day, or in a room where there is plenty of light. Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, a gun training school in Nevada, provides night gun training along with its normal self defense gun training courses.
But I’ve gotten gun training. Why isn’t my gun training enough?
Like I said earlier, using a gun at night is much different than during the day. You can’t see your target as well. If you have a flashlight, how do you shine it to search a room without giving away your location? How do you hold a flashlight AND shoot at the same time? What happens if your target is moving? What if your gun malfunctions and you need to fix it… while holding your flashlight? All of these things, and more, are covered in Dr. Ignatius Piazza’s night gun training. Ignatius Piazza knows that night gun training is a crucial aspect of any well rounded gun training program because many life threatening situations, such as a home invasion, happen at night.
Students of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute get the best gun training in the world. When you enroll in your gun training course at Front Sight, you will probably expect great things, due to various information, such as student testimonials and news stories. When you step foot on Front Sight’s land for your first self defense gun training course from Ignatius Piazza, you will feel that those expectations are pretty accurate. Within the first few minutes of the first lecture of your first day at Front Sight, you will see the experience and training that shines through the Front Sight gun training instructors and staff members. As you progress through your gun training course at Front Sight, you will look back at your expectations and think they were nothing compared to what you actually are receiving. At Front Sight, you aren’t just getting great gun training. You’re getting the best gun training.
Ignatius Piazza is proud that Front Sight focuses on things that other gun training schools leave out, like night gun training. After attending a gun training course from Ignatius Piazza, you will be better prepared to handle a real life situation than you would be if you attended another gun training school that left out bits and pieces because they “didn’t have time,” didn’t see it as important or expected you to pay for and enroll in an additional gun training course to get THAT part of the class. You can trust Front Sight to give you all the gun training you need, so you can have all the protection you deserve.

I went to a local shooting range for the first time this weekend with a fellow Front Sight student. We went to practice our trigger control and shooting speed, review together what we learned at the gun training school and help coach each other by examining our shooting techniques. The result of this trip was that the impressive power of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute was, once again, proven to us.
As Front Sight students, gun safety and proper gun handling are basically second nature to both of us. I wasn’t there for his gun training, but I know that personally, the gun training instructors at Front Sight spent hours perfecting my shooting stance, improving my trigger control and getting my bullets to hit exactly where I wanted them to. It was no surprise to me when my first two bullets hit about four millimeters from the bullseye of the target. But these other people at the range… well, they obviously did not get their “gun training” from Dr. Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight.
I guess Front Sight spoiled me. I learned every aspect of gun training from the instructors at Front Sight. It’s all normal to me now. And you know what? We were easily the best two shooters on the range.
The first thing I noticed was everyone’s shooting stance. It appalled me to see such unstable stances. The girl a few people down was literally knocked backwards every time she shot her pistol. I took a shot. Did I feel the least bit off balance? Nope. I ended my shots with my gun still pointed at my target and my focus still on the front sight. My friend commented later that nothing on me moved when I shot. Gun training at Front Sight made me stable with a strong shooting stance.
I didn’t see one person practicing proper trigger control. Fingers mashed the triggers and then completely came off of them before taking the next shot. The result? Their targets looked like they were trying to hit anywhere BUT the center. Our targets? Let’s just say if we applied the fifty percent rule, our targets would still look way better than any other target on the range, no joke. Gun training at Front Sight made my shots accurate.
The thing that actually scared me while being on the shooting range was everyone’s gun safety. Front Sight emphasizes gun safety in everything you do. This weekend, I saw people’s fingers on the trigger when they weren’t pointed at the target. I saw people holding their guns as if they were toys. I saw a husband and wife muzzle each other’s arms so they could quickly reload. After seeing this, I am even more thankful to be a student of Front Sight because Ignatius Piazza’s gun training instructors taught me how to safely handle a gun. They would never allow such nonchalant gun handling. Gun training at Front Sight made me a safe shooter.
I truly believe that if someone wants to own or use a gun, their gun training should come from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight. There is no better gun training available. Test it out for yourself.

There are a lot of people that get gun training. This “gun training” often consists of going out the the desert with a friend or a family member, picking up a gun and shooting stuff. That’s what my first lesson in using a gun was like. I was in the desert, my friend’s dad handed me a shotgun and told me to “hold here with your left hand and use your right hand to pull the trigger. Okay go ahead and shoot.” I shot two bullets at the dirt, one at a beer can and then five at clay pigeons. Eight bullets. How can anyone feel comfortable with a gun after shooting eight shots
Some people get gun training by going to a shooting range with some people, where they get to shoot at some targets on the wall for a couple hours. Some people even attend a gun training school and actually learn how to properly hold a gun before they shoot it. Then they spend some time shooting and go home.
What if you could take a self defense gun training course that taught you more than that? (You mean there’s more to gun training than just how to shoot a gun?) Front Sight Firearms Training Institute in Pahrump, Nevada (about an hour away from Las Vegas) teaches students literally everything that goes into using a gun, creating the perfect gun training course. Founder and director, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, created Front Sight’s gun training program to include:
- How to choose and buy a gun
- The combat mindset and how to decide whether or not to use a gun for self defense
- How to stop an attacker without using a gun
- How to be aware of your surroundings to recognize potential threats before they arise
- How to carry a concealed weapon
- How to mentally prepare yourself to shoot
…and that is all before you even present your weapon to shoot! Just imagine how much more the gun training instructors at Front Sight teach. Ignatius Piazza really left nothing out of Front Sight’s gun training program. When you leave your first self defense gun training course at Front Sight, whether it is a handgun training course, automatic weapons training course, shotgun training course or a rifle training course, you will have a strong understanding of the entire gun using process, even down to the legal side of shooting a gun.
Somehow, Ignatius Piazza managed to fit in intense gun training lectures, baffling shooting demonstrations and stimulating hands on tactical gun training into just a few short days. When I tell people everything that they will learn at Front Sight, the response is always a response of surprise. “WOW!” “Hmm. I never thought that’d be important.” “Front Sight even teaches you THAT?”
The gun training program at Front Sight is the most complete gun training program you can find. Not only will you learn an unbelievable amount of intellectual information, you will leave a four day gun training course having shot about six hundred rounds. I’d say that’s a bit better than eight.

Standing at the open front door of the house, creeping around the edge, I see a man at the other end of the house holding a grenade. I quickly lean back, holding my gun at the ready position, thinking about what to do next. I ask my gun training instructor, “At what point can this guy see me?” He answers, “Well, with the way your foot is positioned, he can see you already. You better shoot him now before he throws that grenade.” Within three quarters of a second, I have stepped into the doorway, pointed in at the guy and shot him twice in the thoracic cavity. No one is blowing up my house today.
Where am I? I am in Pahrump, Nevada, at Dr. Ignatius Piazza’s gun training school called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, taking a Four Day Defensive Handgun Training Course. Don’t worry… the guy I shot was just a paper target. But what if he was real?
I have friends that regularly go shooting, either at a range or somewhere out in the desert. They take their guns, their ammunition, their gear and go have a good time shooting paper targets and clay pigeons. They have never had professional gun training, but they talk about how awesome they are with a gun because they have been shooting dozens of times over a period of several years. They keep guns in their homes because they think they’ll be able to stop an intruder. But do they know that if an intruder comes into their houses, everything matters? Everything down to how you walk down the hall or through a doorway can change the way that intruder reacts to your presence… or can keep your presence a secret. How would you exit your bedroom and walk down the hall to get your kids if you heard the sound of breaking glass on the other side of the house? Most people simply say, “As fast as possible.” But did you know that there is a way that can get you to your kids safely, and there is a way that is more likely to get you killed?
Don’t be intimidated if you don’t know these things. Ignatius Piazza is able to help you with that at his gun training school called Front Sight. Wait, why would I learn how to walk through A DOOR at a gun training school? Shouldn’t I be learning how to shoot? Trust me, you will learn how to shoot a gun safely and better than anyone you know. But at this gun training school, you will also learn literally EVERYTHING ELSE you need to know about using a gun safely and effectively for self defense, from way before you ever grab your gun until dealing with law enforcement and the courts, including… yes, you guessed it… how to walk through a door correctly.
Front Sight’s gun training program is definitely the most complete gun training program you will find. Ignatius Piazza left nothing out when designing Front Sight’s curriculum. So, let me ask you… is the way you walk through a door putting you at risk?

Our economy is a tough one, wouldn’t you say? People are losing their jobs left and right with all of the budget cuts. Sadly, some of these people who are getting laid off are the people that are supposed to be there to protect us. Our cities are finding that there are less and less law enforcement officers on the streets to patrol and keep us safe. It is a scary thought to think about how long it can take for the police to arrive on a scene if something bad happens. By the time those flashing lights are seen, the burglar, rapist or child predator could be long gone. So what can we do to protect ourselves for those times that law enforcement leaves us hanging?
Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza urges us to always be prepared. Just like you are more likely to pass a test if you study for it, you are more likely to survive an attack if you study self defense techniques. Ignatius Piazza will give you the best self defense training and gun training that you can receive, so you will be completely prepared for anything. He runs a gun training school in Nevada, called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, that offers students gun training and other forms of self defense training at affordable rates.
What if you already know how to shoot a gun? Do you still need gun training? Let’s talk about just a few of the things you will learn from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight. Then, maybe, you can tell me.
One. Gun Safety. Guns are powerful weapons that can very easily be used incorrectly or in a dangerous manner. Gun safety training at Front Sight will train you how to perfectly hold your gun so that your wrists, arms, shoulders, chest and face are all protected. You will learn how to safely handle your weapon in all situations, when to shoot, when to not shoot and how to shoot. With proper gun safety training, a gun will provide you with the comfort of skill at arms.
Two. Mental Awareness. If you know something is going to happen before it happens, you have more reaction time. If you have more reaction time, you have a greater chance of responding effectively. Ignatius Piazza’s Color Code of Mental Awareness will train your mind to be on its game all the time, increasing your ability to recognize threats before they occur.
Three. Shooting Speed. Gun training with Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight will teach you how to draw a gun from a concealed holster, aim and shoot in 1.5 seconds or less. I honestly don’t think this needs further explanation as to why it is important, but think about this. If a man is holding your daughter and pressing his gun to her head, how fast do you want your reaction time to be?
Four. Shooting Accuracy. It doesn’t do too much good if you are super fast at drawing your weapon if you never hit your target. Gun training at Front Sight will get your shooting as accurate as possible. You will be able to hit all kinds of targets, whether they are stationary or moving. Shooting a moving target becomes important when predators are running away or are in a moving vehicle. Attackers are not going to sit still and wait while you point your gun. Ignatius Piazza and the Front Sight gun training instructors will get your shooting as accurate as the pros.
So, what do you think? When the cops don’t come right away, wouldn’t it be good to know these special gun training techniques? Did your previous gun training teach you all this? Front Sight will!

If you have thought about getting gun training, no doubt about it, you have probably done a bit of research. What gun training school offers the best gun training? What school is the most affordable? Is there a gun training school that works with my schedule? Is there a place that concentrates on gun safety?

First, Front Sight Firearms Training Institute was founded and is now directed by world famous, Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza. Ignatius Piazza studied gun training for years before opening Front Sight’s doors. He studied the scholastic side of gun training, gun safety, weapons construction and so many other aspects of the gun world for hours on end. He watched demonstrations from the world’s top shooters. He practiced hands on gun training as a full time job… all the while running a successful chiropractic business and raising a family. Literally, there is not a better person in the world to receive your gun training from other than Ignatius Piazza.
Second, Ignatius Piazza only hires the best of the best gun training instructors to teach at Front Sight. The candidates that hope to become a Front Sight firearms training instructor must first undergo an intensive course that very few people actually pass. Less than ten percent of applicants make it through this gun training course! Once through, the hiring process is demanding, and it doesn’t end at being hired. All Front Sight gun training instructors continuously hone their shooting and training skills by participating in an ongoing gun training course from Ignatius Piazza. Students of Front Sight can feel confident in the fact that Ignatius Piazza holds all of his instructors to the same standard he holds for himself.

Ignatius Piazza concentrates fully on keeping students safe in and out of the course room, teaching them how to correctly handle weapons AND how to avoid using them in the first place. Front Sight is the safest gun training school you can find.
On top of all of these things, Front Sight’s customer service is unbeatable. All of the employees at Front Sight are highly knowledgeable, kind and helpful to anyone who comes in contact with them. They work hard to make sure that your Front Sight experience is the best it can be!
Front Sight is, no question about it, the best place to receive gun training of any kind. Google wouldn’t rank it first if it weren’t!
