About PatriotTAC

WHO WE ARE 

While our Veteran-owned, small business was officially formed in 2011, the owner conceptualized its framing more than twenty years ago while serving on active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps. As a Marine Infantryman, and later as a Federal Law Enforcement Agent, the founder was first certified to teach tactical weapons training to military and law enforcement units in 1988. With a passion for both weapons employment and instructor billets, our founder decided to open the business which is commonly referred to as PatriotTAC.

PatriotTAC Instructors for CCW are selected based on their knowledge and experiences carrying concealed, paired with their ability to clearly communicate, answer questions, and provide the most accurate and applicable information. All of our instructors possess recent real-world experience in either military or law enforcement service, or both.

LOCATION 

Patriot Training and Consulting is based in Jacksonville, North Carolina; home to Marine Corps Base Camp LeJeune and Marine Corps Air Station New River, N.C. We schedule training events in numerous locations around Onslow County and Eastern North Carolina. PatriotTAC also employs mobile training teams who can travel to your location to provide training and security consulting. 

OUR CUSTOMERS 

Patriot Training and Consulting instructors provide training to military, law enforcement, and DoD contracted professionals, as well as those seeking to safeguard their families, homes, businesses, and themselves from crime and or terrorism.

WHAT WE TEACH

PatriotTAC offers a full spectrum of training, ranging from basic awareness and proficiency courses to advanced tactical applications. We provide N.C. DoJ and nationally certified training, as well as customized courses in personal protection, home defense, and law enforcement. Our offerings include concealed carry handgun classes, family, residential, and business security training, firearms safety, victim avoidance seminars, and courses in pistol, handgun, rifle, shotgun, and carbine/patrol rifle shooting and tactics for law enforcement.

NOT JUST A POWERPOINT

Our certified instructors are steadfast in their commitment to providing the absolute highest quality instruction and the best concealed carry class you’ll find anywhere, while maintaining competitive pricing. With the understanding that people generally learn best from one of the three major learning styles (visual, auditory, or kinesthetic), our instructors cater to all three learning styles simultaneously by incorporating the most modern, comprehensive techniques to facilitate high impact, positive learning in our CCW class and all of our additional courses.

PatriotTAC remains committed to the very ethos which caused the formation of our business; great training and gear at the best prices possible.

PatriotTAC is always interested in teaming up with local businesses, range owners, other training companies, individuals, or firearms sales professionals interested in hosting courses for concealed carry, defensive handgun, shotgun or carbine courses, personal or corporate security, or emergency preparedness training.

If you would like to host a training course, we can assemble a mobile training team to meet your needs.
