Several years ago when Scott Reitz and I started our firearms school under the name of California Pistolcraft Seminars, we were determined to provide the best training available anywhere at reasonable prices. Our training techniques have been those used by top law enforcement professionals in major metropolitan police departments. In the last year and a half alone, 16 of the people we have trained have been involved in shootings and have performed flawlessly. We are very proud of the fact that these shootings were all within department policy and use of deadly force parameters. We are mostly proud that they survived without serious injury.

Scott refers to our training as "gunfighting" school. It is designed for those who may one day need to use deadly force to defend themselves or others. Everything we teach has been carefully thought out and is based on decades of "real life" experience. While that term "real life" has been used very loosely by many training centers, our instructors are active duty seasoned officers who have worked in the elite Metropolitan Division of the L.A.P.D., many of whom have spent years on the L.A.P.D. Special Weapons and Tactics Unit. What difference does that make to you? It means that your instructor's credentials will be on our website so you can judge for yourself his or her knowledge and experience. It means that you will learn from someone who actively works on a department that polices a city of 9 million people. It means that we are the only school whose head instructor is a Use of Deadly Force expert who has testified in many high profile murder and deadly force cases in Federal and Superior Court and has the credentials in law enforcement to match."

The judgment and knowledge that our instructors impart is worth the price of admission alone. All of our instructors have been handpicked by us because they have performed exceptionally well in the field and have impeccable credentials. It's your training dollar and you have the right to expect the very best.

At ITTS, your safety and privacy are of the utmost concern to us. Classes are kept small enough to give you personalized instruction and our equipment has been designed and fabricated by us to simulate actual deadly force encounters. We have trained over 7,000 police officers a year and our unblemished safety record speaks volumes on the emphasis we put on safety first. Whether you are a first time civilian shooter or experienced law enforcement professional, you will be in good hands with ITTS.

We hope that you will come and see for yourself why International Tactical Training Seminars has been called the "best kept secret in tactical firearms training" by law enforcement, military and security professionals all over the world. You will not be disappointed.
