MARK CHAMBERLAIN

FIREARMS INSTRUCTOR

Mark and his family moved from Louisiana to Tennessee 12 years ago. He has been a professional trainer for over 30 years, ranging from technical field aspects to professional leadership skills. Mark served as a Commissioned Deputy Sheriff in Bossier Parish, LA. He started and operates two businesses that have trained over 100,000 employees across the US, Canada, and three countries. This training specializes in Street Safety Awareness Training, Emergency Response Protocols, Active Shooter Response, and Professional Dog Bite Prevention for field personnel. He has been a Firearms Instructor and Range Safety Officer with Royal Range for the last year and teaches private lessons to new and experienced shooters. 

He loves to work with a client who has never held a gun and is apprehensive about shooting, and by the end of the first lesson, they are handling it safely, having fun, and excited to learn more. He takes pride in ensuring that your level of situational awareness is such that hopefully, you will never need to use a firearm. But, if you do, you will know how to use it safely and effectively.
