In regards to gun training, you may have heard of the fifty percent rule. In a situation where self defense or family protection is needed, you will only be about fifty percent as accurate as your best day on the shooting range. Basically, that means you are going to be a bit slower and your bullets are going to hit further away from your exact target. If, on your best day, you hit about four inches away from your target, adjust that by fifty percent. Now you are going to be about six inches away. When it comes to small amounts like that, the extra two inches doesn’t really seem like that big of a deal. But what if the bad guy has a gun to your sister’s head and is holding her up as a human shield? If you miss his head, you may have just hit your sister. Are you okay with that?
In stressful and life threatening situations, your brain reacts differently than in calm and controlled situations. While shooting targets at the shooting range, you have all the time in the world. When someone has a gun to your sister’s head, the seconds count. You need to be able to remain calm and keep your cool in these situations, so that your self defense mechanism will be more accurate, quicker, smoother and thus, more effective.
Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute wants to give you the training you need to be able to keep your mind and hand steady, even in these horrifying situations. The gun training courses at Front Sight concentrate on gun safety, and teach how to use a gun for self defense and family protection in actual life threatening situations. Throughout your gun training course, you will hear interesting lectures, watch entertaining shooting demonstrations and practice hands on tactical gun training, performing drills and exercises repetitively until they are second nature to you. This repetition may sound boring, but the gun training instructors at Front Sight keep things exciting and fun, so the class never drags or feels stale. You will interact with other people and will get the chance to participate in scenario based training. You will learn what it feels like to be in a threatening situation, so if you should ever have to endure one for real, your response will come more naturally, since you have technically already been there and done that.
The idea of Ignatius Piazza’s dream for Front Sight is not to make you a good shooter. The idea is to make you a perfect shooter, so that the fifty percent rule need not affect you too much. If you are constantly hitting your target spot on, or even a couple centimeters away, even if you include that fifty percent decrease in accuracy, you are still doing pretty well when it comes to accuracy. Ignatius Piazza and Front Sight will train you to be the best shooter you can be, guaranteed.

For many people, it is back to school time. As a new semester begins, I am sure there are a lot of parents who are bidding their college kids adieu and sending them off to the dormitories. As a parent, have you ever thought about the safety of your children? No doubt that answer is yes. But now that they are older and able to watch after themselves, do you feel comfortable letting them live on their own in a college dorm, roaming around campus or parking lots late at night, attending those famous college parties or not checking in with you every night?
They may always be your babies, but the truth is, your kids are getting older. While we wish we could be there to protect them every day of their lives, every minute of the day, we just can’t. However, even without being there, we still CAN protect them every minute of every day for the rest of their lives. I am talking about giving them the gift of self defense.
Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute in Pahrump, Nevada, wants to give you peace of mind by providing the world’s best quality gun training, knife training and self defense training of any kind to your college age kids.
My kid is going to be on campus all day and in the dorms all night… why does she need gun training? Like it or not, college campuses can be dangerous places. Just because knives and guns are not permitted does not mean they are not there. Bad guys do not follow the rules. There have been countless stories of students getting injured or killed because someone brought a knife or a gun on campus. Even if your child does not choose to carry a weapon, he or she should know HOW to use a gun, how to use a knife and how to use empty hands self defense techniques. Front Sight will teach students not only how to use a gun or knife safely and effectively, but also how to disarm an attacker. This will give them a much greater chance of staying safe if someone were to approach them in a threatening manner.
When you come to the conclusion that your child should get some gun training, you will likely want to take them to the best gun training school possible. And guess what? It just so happens that Front Sight is ranked the number one gun training school in the world. Founder and director of Front Sight, Ignatius Piazza has worked tirelessly to make sure that students get the best possible gun training education in a short amount of time. His gun training program will change your kids’ lives… and it will change yours, as well. In just a few days, your college student can have gun handling skills that exceed those of ninety nine percent of the gun owning population. Doesn’t that make you feel better about them being off on their own?

Have you ever tried to find good gun training? Like, really, really good gun training? If you tried prior to 1996 I bet you ran into some issues. Back then, finding really awesome gun training required talent. Lucky for us, now we can easily find great gun training and great gun training deals with Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. At Front Sight, you will find not only good gun training… you will find the best gun training in the world.
Founder and Director, Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, ran into those issues when he was trying to find his own gun training back in the late eighties and early nineties. He really wanted to learn how to use a gun for self defense and family protection, but he kept running into walls and dead ends. Some gun training schools seemed promising, but then it turned out they were seriously lacking in some areas. Each gun training school that Ignatius Piazza came across had strengths and weaknesses. But where was the gun training school with only strengths?
The frustration that Ignatius Piazza experienced when he was on what should have been a simple search for basic self defense gun training became even greater on his quest to become a Four Weapons Combat Master… and he decided that no one should ever have to go through this again. Thus, he made up his mind to create the gun training school with no weaknesses. He worked tirelessly and finally, Front Sight Firearms Training Institute opened its doors in April of 1996. It has done so much for the gun training world ever since.
What are the strengths that you look for in your gun training? I would answer that question by saying complete material that focuses on gun safety and how to use a gun correctly, a gun training program for all experience levels, knowledgeable and friendly staff members, incredibly experienced gun training instructors who give one on one attention, and it would also help if the environment was fun and inviting. I can see how most gun training schools would have a couple of those qualifications, but I can also see how it would be difficult to house all of them at once. Well, Ignatius Piazza pulls it off with Front Sight Firearms Training Institute.
Let me break it down. The gun training curriculum at Front Sight focuses greatly on gun safety and nothing is left out. Every exercise taught, learned and practiced at Front Sight is safe and supervised. Students feel as if they are getting personal gun training, even with other people in the class, because the instructors are, literally, the best gun training instructors in the world. Questions are answered immediately and thoroughly, until each student fully understands the answer. Every employee at Front Sight, even the people that answer the phones and work in the Pro Shop, are trained in Front Sight’s gun training program, extremely sharp AND super nice. On top of all that, Front Sight’s gun training courses are SO MUCH FUN.
Check it out and you will see that Front Sight truly is the gun training school with all strength and no weakness.

If you are like most people who have ever been in a relationship, you have probably experienced, at one point or another, the familiar concept of getting “comfortable.” Now, when I say, “comfortable,” I mean something a little different than being able to be around him without makeup or being fine with her smelling you after working in the yard for a few hours. I am talking about COMFORTABLE… when you come home from work, and all you do is eat some dinner and watch some TV. Day in and day out, that’s what you do, and it is totally fine. It is comfortable… until one day, it hits you. “Man… we are BORING.”
I know I have been there. So what do you do to fix this? I know an awesome place. It could be considered out of the ordinary to suggest something like this, because many people would suggest to go out dancing or go on a hike or to the zoo or something… but I am going to suggest getting some first class gun training with your significant other at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute in Parhump, Nevada.
Front Sight is the perfect way to add some spice and oomph into your relationship, while building strength, trust and bringing you closer together. I will tell you why.
One, attending a gun training course from world renowned Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, is way more exciting than the rerun of I Love Lucy or Seinfeld that you have probably seen seventeen times. At Front Sight, you will learn how to safely and effectively shoot a gun for self defense, by listening to interesting presentations, watching awe inspiring demonstrations and practicing some real life, hands on tactical gun training. The presentations and demonstrations are truly amazing. It is seriously like heading out to a shooting museum… and getting to participate.
Two, when you practice your hands on tactical gun training at Front Sight, you partner up with another student. Partnering with your significant other will help build communication because you are helping each other learn. You are keeping each other safe, learning how to teach clearly and non judgmentally while listening to each other and having fun. Front Sight is a fantastic partnering experience!
Three, Front Sight will help you build trust. Ignatius Piazza and his team of firearms training instructors at Front Sight teach self defense and family protection. Don’t you think that you would be more likely to trust someone that you are confident could save your life in any dangerous situation? Forget the classic exercise of standing in front of your significant other and falling into his or her arms. At Front Sight, you get to learn how to keep each other safe and secure while feeling the power of a gun in your hands. It is pretty much the coolest trust building exercise ever created.
Attending a gun training course from Ignatius Piazza at Front Sight is a great option to get out of that boring and repetitive lifestyle that many of us live. It will change things up. It will change your life. It could change your relationship. Are you ready for making that positive change?

You may be pretty good at shooting. Heck, your bullets may hit pretty close to the bullseye of a target almost every shot you make. But did you know that while under stress, your shots will only be about fifty percent as accurate as your best day on the range? During my first Four Day Defensive Handgun Training Course at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, I was shown just how much a stressful situation can change your shooting ability. In The Chronicles of Front Sight: My Experience, Part Eight, I talked about the Front Sight shooting competition, and what had happened because of my stress levels rising. Dr. Ignatius Piazza and the gun training instructors at Front Sight pay special attention to helping students learn how to remain calm in stressful situations, so their stress does not get the best of them in a real life threatening moment.
At Front Sight, I learned through scenario based training, which helps overall comfort levels when having to experience the situations in real life. Since a student of Front Sight has already, “been there and done that,” if you will, an actual life threatening situation experience becomes easier to handle. Think about it. What are the differences in the two following situations?
1. A masked gunman pulls a gun out at you. You have never experienced this type of situation before. You have only shot stationary paper targets with circles on them at the shooting range.
2. A masked gunman pulls a gun out at you. You have gone through this situation dozens of times with a professional gun training instructor. You have been forced to escape the situation several times in a row, and have even done it in front of people.
Which situation would you rather be in? Ignatius Piazza made sure that his gun training at Front Sight would prepare his students for real life. He brought this to a personal level to me when, in one of my last exercises on the range, the gun training instructor placed a target in front of me that was a replica of a hostage situation. Each student in my gun training course had to name his or her hostage, and it had to be someone each person really cared about.
I named mine after my niece. Talk about a stressful situation! I knew how badly I would feel if I hit the wrong person on the target. However, because of my excellent gun training at Front Sight, I was able to focus on what I was doing and really put myself into the situation, as if it were real life… and I saved my niece.
Remember how on Day One of my Front Sight Self Defense Gun Training Course, I was pretty much the worst shooter that ever lived? Yeah… on Day Four at Front Sight, I was able to shoot a gun EXACTLY where I aimed it WHILE being put under an extreme amount of stress.
So why was I so accurate in my shooting? The Chronicles of Front Sight: My Experience, Part Ten will explain the differences between how I shot on Day One versus how I shot on Day Four. There, you will learn the mistake that so many people (about 95% of the gun using population) make, and most people don’t even know they are doing it. Come with me on our adventure and let me show you what I learned at Front Sight that made me able to shoot exactly on target.

It is now April of 2011, the fifteen year anniversary of the birth of the greatest gun training school known to man, Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. In April of 1996, the legacy came into fruition. But what many people do not know is that the idea of Front Sight was actually conceived years before its opening. Front Sight was not just some random business that Dr. Ignatius Piazza decided to open one day. It took careful planning, preparation and training in order to come to life, and it all started because Ignatius Piazza had a very important need: to spread the good news about gun training to the world, creating a more positive image of firearms.
There are so many people out there who have a negative view of firearms. It is somewhat understandable, because they see people getting shot at by gang members, schools getting attacked by antisocial creepy kids and houses getting broken into. But what they do not see is how firearms can actually help save lives. I am with you on the fact that I wish bad guys didn’t have guns. They are dangerous in the wrong hands. But, whether we like it or not, bad guys are always going to find a way to get the guns. Just like they will find a way to get the drugs or the scary black masks that go over their faces, unless guns somehow just stopped existing, they are going to get their hands on them. Heck, even if guns didn’t exist anymore, they’d still find a way. I mean, people make bombs out of two liter bottles and some household cleaners… and bombs are illegal, right? Sure, we can make guns illegal. But all that’s going to do is put us good guys in more danger, because we are going to be the only ones obeying the law. The bad guys are still going to get their guns.
Front Sight Firearms Training Institute is for the people that want to protect themselves and protect their families from these bad guys. When faced with a guy with a gun, would you like to fight him off with your purse? If this armed guy is running off with your child under his arm, wouldn’t you want to stop him in his tracks and save your kid? Founder and director of Front Sight, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, wants to train you how to use a gun for self defense through his intense but fun gun training courses, so you never have to be faced with a bad guy with a gun and not know what to do about it.
At Front Sight, you will learn literally everything you need to know about using a gun for self defense and family protection. You will learn the simple things from how to properly load your gun to the advanced techniques of how to handle hostage situations. Ignatius Piazza and his team of gun training instructors will train you how to get out of any life threatening situation safely, even if there are multiple attackers or low visibility.
Front Sight’s gun training is the best in the world: fifteen years and counting. Come hang out with Ignatius Piazza and learn how to protect yourself and your family. Let’s turn those fifteen years into sixteen.

You are never too old nor too young to learn how to defend yourself. Self defense training shows no age discrimination because, to be honest, predators and bad guys don’t age discriminate and decide not to attack because someone is too young or too old. In fact, the extreme ages (very young or very old) tend to get attacked more because they appear to be more vulnerable and… for lack of a better word… attackable. Do you want to be attackable? I asked myself that question and thought, “HECK NO.”
I got myself some self defense handgun training from Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. Ignatius Piazza owns and operates the best gun training school in the world. At Front Sight, all ages are welcome. There is no age, no gender, no size and no strength level that can not succeed. Ignatius Piazza trains everyone, from children to our grandparents. There was a man in my gun training course that was well into his eighties. He was out there with all of us, learning how to handle hostage situations and multiple attackers, because he didn’t want his age to play against him. Now, after being trained at Front Sight, that man is stronger emotionally and physically and never has to be a victim of someone who sees him as old and feeble.
Ignatius Piazza also offers child safety training and youth safety training, because as parents, you can not be always there to protect your kids. Your kids go to school or birthday parties, out with their friends and sometimes stay home alone. If you are able to be with your kids one hundred percent of the time, my hat is off to you. Since we all know that’s not really a realistic possibility, you can be confident that with Ignatius Piazza’s child safety training and youth safety training courses, your kids will be protected all of the time because they will know how to protect themselves.
At Front Sight, your kids will learn how to protect themselves from predators, how to avoid peer pressure and how to get out of even the strongest of holds, no matter how small they may be. As a father, Ignatius Piazza knows how it feels to want your kids to be safe, so he will go out of his way to make sure that you know your kids are in good hands. After attending one of Ignatius Piazza’s self defense training programs, your children will be safe wherever they may be.
If you have got kids, or if you are approaching a ripe age, Ignatius Piazza wants to be there to help you out. He wants you to be safe and he wants your entire family to be safe. Come visit him at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute and see for yourself how much you can learn, no matter what you currently think your age restrictions are. Don’t ever let yourself be a victim based on your age.

Imagine yourself at home on a quiet night, enjoying the evening with your family. Out of nowhere, you hear tires screeching, piercing screams and the sound of gunshots echo throughout the stillness.
Or imagine yourself sleeping at night when you are awakened to the sound of crashing glass. You quickly realize there is someone in your living room. Next thing you know, the door to your bedroom is being opened and in walks in a man in a black ski mask.
Or imagine yourself pulling some cash out of the ATM. It’s dark outside and you are not completely aware of the city around you. Suddenly, someone steps close to you and whispers in your ear to give him your cash and he won’t hurt you.
How do you respond? Are you sure about what you would do or do you have to think about it? Well, I have got news for you. If it takes you more than a second to think about it and decide what to do, chances are, you are too late. You may think that none of these scenarios will ever happen to you. But they happen. The very first one happened to Dr. Ignatius Piazza, a humble but successful chiropractor from California. While the hope is that you will know how to handle any life threatening situation should it arise, Ignatius Piazza found himself coming to a devastating conclusion: all though he knew how to use a gun pretty well and practiced shooting it regularly, he lacked the skills to use a gun when he needed it most.
Ignatius Piazza took that disappointing realization and turned it into something amazing, however. He started training intensively, taking course after course of self defense gun training. He eventually became so proficient in shooting that he earned himself a Four Weapons Combat Master Certificate, an honor that only a few people in the world can claim. Being a man of epic philanthropy, Ignatius Piazza decided that he wanted to share his knowledge of gun training with the world and spread the wealth of safety to as many people as humanly possible.
Today, Ignatius Piazza directs a gun training school in Nevada, called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. Front Sight offers the world’s greatest gun training of every kind, teaching students of all skill levels, knowledge bases and gun training backgrounds. At Front Sight, students come together and learn everything there is to know about self defense gun training and family protection. They learn how to handle each of the situations listed above, as well as every other life threatening situation you can think of. Through lectures, demonstrations and hardcore hands on tactical gun training, students of Ignatius Piazza learn more in a few short days than trained law enforcement officers learn in years of training and on the job experience.
Hands down, Ignatius Piazza gives the best gun training money can buy. On top of that, Front Sight is highly affordable to everyday people like you and me!
If you were the least bit overwhelmed by the scenarios listed above, come check out Ignatius Piazza’s gun training courses at Front Sight. In less than a week, you’ll be able to re-read those scenarios and not only know immediately how to respond to them, but you will be confident in your ability to handle them and escape safely.

I got extensive gun training from the best gun training instructors in the world. Now I know more about gun training and safe gun use than most people I know. AND I did not break my bank account getting that gun training. Nor did I have to take too much time off work. And I sure as heck did not have to jump through hoops to get scheduled. It was, pretty much, the most perfect experience. The great thing is, is that you can have the same experience as I did. Let’s talk about how.
First, you have to decide you want to receive gun training. Already done that? Great. You can move on to the next paragraph. Still debating? Okay. Let’s look into a couple reasons to get gun training. One of the most important reasons, to me, is for self defense. Let’s face it. Bad guys carry weapons. They usually carry guns or knives. Gun training, like the gun training I got from the best gun training instructors in the world, can help increase your chances of survival should you be attacked by one of these bad guys. The reason to get gun training that is even more important to me is to provide family protection. Gun training and self defense training can help you protect your family from any disturbance that might happen in your household, like a home invasion. You will know exactly what to do to handle the situation and get yourself and your family out safely.
Next step is to decide on a place to get your gun training. I have done tons of research on the subject and have found that the best place possible is Front Sight Firearms Training Institute in Pahrump, Nevada. Founded and directed by Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, Front Sight is ranked the number one place in the world to receive gun training of any kind. Ignatius Piazza hires only the best of the best instructors and range masters, giving students the best possible chance to succeed. The instructors at Front Sight have been extensively trained to a level far beyond military and law enforcement instructors, and they provide a quality of service that simply cannot be beaten. Feel free to take a look at Front Sight’s website to learn more about the gun training that these instructors provide.
Your next move is to decide what gun training course best suits you. If you don’t know which one will be perfect for you, the people that answer the phones at Front Sight will help you make your decision. If you surf around a bit on Front Sight’s website, you will see the incredible offers that Ignatius Piazza is currently making available to us all. There are gun training courses for every budget and schedule. It’s just a matter of deciding which one works best for you, personally.
Once you’ve decided on a course, all you have to do is simply sign up and follow the easy directions that Ignatius Piazza’s staff members give to you. Then, you can be ready to enjoy your time at Front Sight!
My experience at Front Sight changed my life completely. Your life is about to change dramatically, as well!
