      | Jason Esterline  At 8 years old, my brother who was leaving to join the Air Force gave me my own .22 rifle which I just passed down to my 13 year old son. I also had a .410 shotgun which I still own to this day as well. So, I guess you can say I grew up around guns. During my teenage years I shot regularly at a gun range where I was employed for a few years in High School and then partially thru College. During my career, I also found that I enjoyed teaching ...so when the opportunity presented itself to become an NRA Certified Instructor, I jumped at the chance! My philosophy is simple when it comes to training... give them more than they expected. I don't believe in doing just the bare minimum training the state requires, so give me a try -- you might like what I have to offer. Fred Collis  Fred loves to share his knowledge and his experiences to help others keep "Safety" on the forefront of their minds when it comes to guns. Here are some of his credentials: NRA Instructor in Rifle, Shotgun, Muzzle Loading Rifle, Muzzle Loading Shotgun, Pistol, Metallic Reloading, Shot Shell Reloading, Range Safety Officer & Level I Shooting Coach. Steve Shapiro  During his years in Boy Scouting, Steven became involved in the various BSA Shooting Sports Programs including Archery, Pistol, Rifle, Shotgun (including muzzle loading pistol, rifle and shotgun) and became a council certified Range Master with credentials to teach Boy Scout Merit Badges in each of these disciplines to youth and train adults in the teaching of these disciplines. Recently the BSA changed their qualification requirements for firearms instruction and required that all Merit Badge Instructors be NRA Certified Instructors. To comply, Steven became an NRA Certified Instructor in the following:
Upon receiving his NRA Certifications, Steven discovered a strong demand from his friends and family to learn more about firearms - specifically, defensive firearms for use in personal protection inside and outside the home. He also discovered a strong desire from many of these people to obtain their Florida Carry Concealed Weapons License, especially the owners of small retail businesses who wanted to be prepared to defend and protect themselves during business hours as well as after hours when making bank deposits. To meet this demand, he started Trigger Trainers and offers NRA Firearms courses, Florida Concealed Carry courses and private / personal instruction to individuals and groups.
