Events
This is a list of all the scheduled competition and events we have at the range. Pre registration is not required. Just show up and get in on the fun. We have many "couples" that shoot together and this is a great "date night" to spend time together.
If you have never competed in any of the disciplines we have, come out and watch and see if it is something you would like to try.
Florida Concealed Carry Class
When you’re choosing a concealed carry instructor, you’re choosing someone who can provide you with the skills to save your life or the life of a loved one.
My name is Kevin Creighton, and I run Quietly Armed. I am a full-time professional firearms writer for the National Rifle Association, and I teach firearms training in the Naples area. I am not your typical “fly by night” firearms instructor who just gets the minimum amount to training to teach concealed carry. Instead, I put in hours and hours of time and energy into my classes in order to make sure you receive the best possible instruction. Here’s just a few of things that set my classes apart from the others:
The state of Florida requires instructor to have just 24 hours of training before they can teach a concealed carry class.
I have over 1,00 hours of firearms instruction.
State law says that if you can pull the trigger of a gun and make the gun go “bang!,” you have enough training to defend your life.
I teach you how to place your shots on-target when literally everything depends on your marksmanship.
Other instructors talk about their military or law enforcement experience.
That’s great, but how is that relevant to you in your daily life?
I’m just like you. I enjoy the relaxed lifestyle we have here in Naples, and I want you and your loved ones to keep enjoying your lives and to keep you safe from those who would do us harm.
- Methods of Concealed Carry
- Florida Firearms Law
- Personal Safety Tips Choosing A Defensive Firearm
- Basic Pistol Marksmanship
Class is limited to 12 students maximum, so you’ll have as much of my attention as possible.
Students will qualify for not only their Florida concealed carry permit, but have a chance to practice other tests and drills as well.

The Cadre Session 1: The Concealed Carry Draw
- Prerequisites: A valid concealed carry license
- Gear Needed: See below
- Class Date: Sunday, October 13, 1pm
This is an encore session to accommodate increased demand.
Deploying your defensive firearm in a timely manner is an essential part of the concealed carry lifestyle. The latest and greatest hand-blaster and all the firepower in the world are useless if you can’t get your gun into the fight when you need it the most.
However, most shooting ranges don’t allow you to draw from a holster, and learning a smooth and efficient draw is a daunting task if you’re doing it all by yourself. On top of all of this, holster manufacturers sell their holsters on the basis of comfort, not speed or ease of use. A comfortable holster is great, but a comfortable holster that gets in the way of you getting your gun in the fight is a dangerous thing to carry on your waist.
This class is designed to improve your draw from concealment, no matter if you’re an experienced firearms owner who carries a pistol on a daily basis or someone who is new to the concealed carry lifestyle. If you already carry on a regular basis, this class will sharpen your ability with your gear. If you don’t carry regularly, this class will show how to optimize your gear for maximum concealment and efficiency.
Topics Covered In This Class
- Choosing A Good Holster And Gun Belt
- The Efficient Concealed Carry Draw
- Safe Re-holstering
- Theory And Practice Of The Failure To Stop Drill
- Test And Evaluation
This class is less than three hours long and requires fewer than 100 rounds of ammo. Class size will be topped at just six people to allow plenty of opportunities for 1-1 instruction.

Intro to Defensive Carbine
Once vilified as an “assault weapon,” the AR-15 is, in fact, a very effective tool for home defense. Light, easy to handle and with little appreciable recoil, it can be quickly adapted to fit each user in ways other rifles cannot.
This four hour class will cover the application of an AR-15 to the thorny problem of home defense. Students will learn how to optimize their defensive carbines for use inside the home, how to use a sling, as well as learn which accessories are “must haves” for a home defense carbine. This class is specifically designed for all the gun owners out there who bought an AR-15 in the past few years for home defense (a good idea) but then don’t know what the next step is. Well, this is it.
In addition to this, the class will cover the different types of close-quarters optics and how to keep your rifle in the action.
The live-fire portion will cover zeroing your gun, understanding and overcoming mechanical sight offset and speed and accuracy at common home defense distances.
- History and operation of the AR-15
- Advantages and disadvantages of the AR-15 for home defense
- Choosing an optic for your rifle
- Other accessory choices
- Setup and sling use
- Stance, grip and sight alignment
- Zeroing your sighting system
- Engaging targets at common self defense distances
- Use of cover

The Cadre Session Two: Automatic Accuracy
Introducing The Cadre Sessions™
Each session in The Cadre series is focused on one essential skill to help make you a better armed citizen. The classes are inexpensive and will concentrate on improving and honing one essential technique. After class, you’ll receive a drill that you can use to further hone your skills at your next range session.
These classes are designed to maximize your training time and resources and put you on a path to lifetime enjoyment of the shooting sports and safely enjoy the armed lifestyle.
The Cadre Session Two: Automatic Accuracy
- Prerequisites: A valid concealed carry license
- Gear Needed: See below
- Class Date: Sunday, October 6th at 1pm
The purpose of this class is to dial in the fundamentals of trigger and grip and create the building blocks of automaticity.
What is automaticity?
“The quality or fact of being performed involuntarily or unconsciously, as a reflex, innate process, or ingrained habit.”
Think about the last time you almost had a traffic accident. Not an actual accident, but rather, one that you were able to avoid. How did you do that? Did you ever, at some point, think to yourself, “Oh my goodness, that car just ran a red light. I need to take my foot off the gas, move it to the left and apply it with all my might to the brake pedal!”
No, of course you didn’t, you just did it. You did it because when it comes to defensive driving, you have automaticity. This class is designed to help create those same automatic processes when it comes to your defensive pistol.
Topics Covered In This Class
- Review of the Draw
- Stance Doesn’t Matter… Until It Does
- Grip Theory
- Trigger Warning
This class is less than three hours long and requires fewer than 100 rounds of ammo. Class size will be topped at just six people to allow plenty of opportunities for 1-1 instruction.
Gear Requirements:
- A pistol (9mm/38 Special or larger caliber)
- A spare magazine
- A cover garment such as light jacket or oversized t-shirt
- A holster suitable for concealed carry. Please do not bring a Blackhawk! Serpa holster or soft nylon holster such as an Uncle Mike’s or similar holster.
