I just finished the Defensive Pistol 2 course. My skills improved by the end of the course. I am new to shooting and feel extremely fortunate to be able to learn good habits from someone like Ron who is an experienced veteran in LE, DEA, FBI and the military with decades of knowledge that he expertly and caringly imparts on all of his students. I highly recommend his instruction and can't wait for the next time I get to learn from him. Thank you, Ron, for all you do.

I have been to several of Ron’s pistol classes and decided to take advantage of his excellent instruction in my first AR experience.

Ron stresses safety and ensures his students feel comfortable as they build confidence throughout the day. I appreciate the mixture of classroom and range time and came away very pleased with the experience.

Ron is a consummate professional who easily caters to beginner to advanced students. Highly recommend Ron’s instruction for anyone getting into the sport or those dialing into advanced techniques.

I had my first firearms training with Ron and it was 100% worth it. His attention to detail and focus on safety was exactly what I needed as a novice. I left the training with a lot of knowledge and a ton of confidence to be a first time gun owner. I would highly recommend anyone looking for first time gun experience to work with Ron.

Just completed an AR 15 introduction course to self defense last week. It was a terrific experience. So much useful information, I would love to take it again sooner than later. Ron is an outstanding instructor with an awesome resume. Each person in the class got plenty of one on one with Ron. I highly recommend Citizens Defense Training.

Ron is an excellent teacher, demands perfection but not intimidating and communicates clearly. Quickly recognizes your weaknesses and always has supportive suggestions for the "fix".
Would recommend his courses to anyone, regardless of experience and proficiency.

I cannot stress how much this course, women’s intro to defensive handgun, was invaluable to me. Ron made me feel so welcomed with my limited, well almost no, knowledge of handguns. From field stripping to storing safely to proper stance and shooting I learned so much from him. He made me feel more comfortable owning and maybe in the future carrying a handgun. Not only did he go over safety he went over the legal responsibility we have when owning and or carrying a handgun. If you want to own and or carry a handgun and you have very little experience, like myself, I would sign up for his course as soon as possible. I want to be a responsible hun owner and he made me feel confident that I can be. Ladies I highly recommend taking this course. I look forward to doing another course with him in the future.

I've taken 3 classes with CDT and Ron has taken my skill set to a new level. Ron's training style is very dynamic. Every class that I've taken with Ron, he has always gone above and beyond with helping everyone (yes everyone!) the class no matter what their skill level is at. This personalized training in a good size class helps to take the quality of the training to the next level. Really looking forward to my fourth class next month!

My son and I just attended one of Ron's classes. His knowledge and experience with firearms is second to none. He makes his classes not only fun but easy to understand and jam packed full of training. He is very detailed oriented and makes safety a priority. You find out that what you thought you knew about firearms and shooting is only a small amount of what you need to know. He is dedicated to making sure you understand his teachings. I would recommend to anyone no matter what skill level to take Ron's classes.

Ron is a great instructor. Highly recommend

My daughter and I just had a class with Ron Flowers. It was a great day. Ron’s training style is backed by year’s of experience and is both educational and engaging. Ron set’s high expectations for his students and knows just how to get the most out of each one. Highly recommend for anyone, at any level, if you want to improve your overall firearms performance.
