Imagine an America Where Everyone Has Self Defense
Training, What a Wonderful World

Self defense training is a funny thing. No one likes to think that bad things will happen to themselves or their loved ones, but everyone is afraid of it. The number of tae kwan do, karate and ju-do studios in towns and cities all over America speak volumes for America's fear of violence and desire for protection. What Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, the nation's largest gun training school, wants to encourage people to understand is that firearms training is just as important, if not more important, than unarmed self defense training. Self defense training is some of the most important training anyone could ever get. Keeping oneself and one's loved ones safe should be the highest of priorities for anyone, and as such, the increasing possibility of armed, violent crime must be realized.

The founder and director of Front Sight, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, is certainly one to speak from experience about the importance of self defense training. Having been made the victim of a random drive-by shooting, Dr. Piazza urges all of America to get firearms training and not regret failing to do so later. Dr. Piazza is certainly one to listen to as far as firearms training goes. He is a Four Weapons Combat Master, a trademarked firearms training certification. Easily one of the most difficult gun tests on the market, there are only five men who have ever successfully passed the rigorous test that puts an individual to the ultimate test. After years, months and weeks of training, Dr. Piazza became the second man to ever successfully pass the test.

He, therefore, speaks from extreme experience about the importance of gun training and how it relates to self defense training. According to Dr. Piazza, gun training is nothing more than armed self defense training. Wanting nothing more than a completely safe America, Dr. Piazza encourages all of America to get the training that could some day save their life.
