Hardpoint Training
Firearms training in Pittsburgh, PA
Hardpoint Training LLC. is a firearms training company that offers training in a class or private learning environment. Hardpoint is dedicated to teaching safe handling, manipulations and fundamental use of firearms.
The main mission at Hardpoint is to help students build their confidence levels with firearms for an everyday carry lifestyle. A common phrase in the training world is “we do not rise to the occasion, but we fall to our level of training”. Training requires dedication to yourself and consistent work. Training requires repetitions to build the shooters efficiency and confidence to draw their firearm present it to a "threat" and produce repeatable accurate shots in a timely manner. Do you as the shooter have the skill and the mindset to use your firearm if the situation arises? Have you prepared for the aftermath of a shooting incident if you carry a firearm daily?
Carrying a firearm every day for protection is more than a permit, firearm, and holster. It’s a lifestyle of holding yourself to a higher standard, putting the work in with your firearm consistently all to prepare for a “moment” you hope never happens. If you train and that “moment” ever presents itself you will be thankful you have something to resort back to. Hardpoint Training LLC wants to help ensure that if you have a firearm for protection that you as the shooter are one hundred percent confident in your abilities with your firearm.
