WHAT PEOPLE SAY

DAVE W., STUDENT DYNAMIC PISTOL/CARBINE

"I would highly recommend Rob. As a matter of fact, I have referred several friends to Rob’s training and they have all had a similar experience. In addition to that, I will be training with Rob exclusively because he is so great at what he does."

JENNIFER S., STUDENT
LADIES ONLY HANDGUN

"Truly a great experience. The SVT instructors made learning about handguns comfortable while always emphasizing safety.  As a beginner I was  very surprised on how different this was from "other" programs that were much more stressful and intense. This was a wonderful class with my friends!"

JOE D., STUDENT
ADVANCED HANDGUN TACTICS

"Under SVT's tutelage, I not only gained proficiency in firearm usage but also developed a profound respect for the artistry behind it. For anyone serious about firearms education, I wholeheartedly recommend Silicon Valley Tactical—it's an experience that transcends mere instruction."
