Training & Classes

Parma Armory Shooting Center is first and foremost an educational institution

We all must remember that owning a weapon of any kind brings with it an obligation to learn to use it responsibly and as safely as possible in all circumstances and situations.

Buying a gun does not automatically make you safer. Proper and effective training in gun use and protection, whether for sport or in high-pressure situations, can enhance your safety. To this end, we offer a variety of training options:

 

  1. First Shots Classes: Designed for enthusiastic beginners or those apprehensive about guns, these classes differentiate fact from fiction.
  2. Household Weapon (HHW) Classes: Focused on family protection at home.
  3. Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) Classes: These are mandatory for obtaining an Ohio carry permit, which is recognized in most states.
  4. Specialized Training Classes: These cover defense scenarios such as low light conditions, multiple attackers, edged weapons, unarmed attackers, the use of non-lethal weapons, and more.
  5. PASC+V Digital Assault Survival Theater Classes: Available both as standalone and as part of other gun training programs, these classes enhance defensive capabilities by actively involving participants in a wide range of simulated crime-in-progress scenarios.
  6. Archery Classes: Suitable for anyone over 8 years of age, these classes are designed to introduce or improve archery skills for target shooting and bowhunting, using both traditional and compound bows. View Archery classes here.
