About me:
My specialty is the art of the pistol. My goal is improving the shooters experience and performance using the basic fundamentals which are the building blocks for success.

I am a veteran, life long shooter, 2a supporter and NRA Member. I do not just teach the Minnesota Permit to Carry Training Class. I actually live an armed lifestyle every day. My pistol is simply a part of being dressed for the day.



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.


Please feel free to contact me regarding any of your firearms safety or training questions. If for some reason I cannot answer your question I will tell you that and work with you to get you the best information possible.


As a business certified by the Minnesota BCA, it is important that I tell you one thing: Carrying a lethal self-defense weapon is not for everyone.
