Gunsite Academy



While heading home from the Lost Dutchman Chapter's clamp-out, I was driving north on U.S. 89 from Prescott, Arizona to Interstate 40.

During the drive, I noticed a sign pointing the way to Gunsite Academy in Paulden, Arizona.

I have heard of Gunsite Academy over the years. It is one of the premier, if not the best, firearms training schools in the country. It was founded by the late Jeff Cooper.

According to Gunsite Academy's website:
The original ‘American Pistol Institute’ (API) now known as Gunsite Academy offers firearms training to elite military personnel, law enforcement officers and free citizens of the US. 
We know Americans take our rights very seriously, and the Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States guarantees each citizen the right to keep and bear arms. However, with each right comes an equal responsibility to discharge that right effectively, legally, safely and within the bounds of morality. Rights demand responsibility. 
Owning a piano does not make one a pianist any more than owning a handgun makes one a good shooter. Only an effective, safe and authoritative program of study can guarantee that in a moment of danger YOU will act to protect yourself, your loved ones or the ones you are sworn to with self defense firearms training skills. 
Gunsite is such a school. Here, we teach Marksmanship – how to hit what you aim at. However, Gunsite goes beyond this simple discipline to include the principles of Gun-handling and Mind-set. This we call the Combat Triad. We offer multiple levels of instruction in handgun, carbine, shotgun, bolt action rifle and precision rifle. Each discipline is informed by the Combat Triad. Each Instructor at Gunsite is someone who has served in Law Enforcement, the military or both. Each Instructor is fully imbued with the doctrine and tradition of our school.
Along with classes, on-site and off-site, Gunsite Academy has a proshop.
