"I highly recommend "Article 1 Tactical" for Corporate Training events. We recently completed the Active Threat Assessment and Preparation training class at our organization. The information and knowledge we gained through their training has been impetus for advancing our policies and procedures. Next, we will extend the training corporate wide."

"These guys are legit. If you're thinking about getting your conceal and carry license, own a business and are looking for ways to safeguard your property, or just want to become more proficient with handling firearms, check them out. You won't regret it."

"Took my conceal carry class tonight with my Mom, Dad and sister and it was great! Very informative yet very approachable class. I would highly recommend to anyone looking to get started with their conceal carry or further gun safety training!"

"Mike and Jason recently provided a training on active threat response to an organization I am involved with. They custom tailored the training to the needs and demands of the organization. They also made the training relatable to every participant. Article 1 Tactical went the extra mile to make a difficult subject easier to talk about as well as plan for how to reduce risk and how to respond. Their communication and planning before the event was very helpful. I am still getting positive feedback from the training and look forward to utilizing their knowledge more in the future."
