Here at Davey Defense, we teach everyday people how to protect themselves and their loved ones with real-world training, honest advice, and no ego. We’re here to give people the tools, skills, and confidence necessary to take control of their personal safety. We help people feel prepared, not paranoid—by making firearm safety and responsibility something anyone can learn, no matter their background. Our relationship isn’t over when you leave the range. We wish to pass on what we know so others can walk safer, stand taller, and take their security into their own hands.


Our mission is simple: teach solid firearm fundamentals, treat folks with respect, and build lasting trust through real training and real support.
