NSSF FIRST SHOTS

Registration Confirmed

Your Sentinel Academy Journey Starts Here

You’re Taking the First Step

Thank you for signing up for NSSF First Shots. This is a 100% free class and the perfect starting point for building safe habits, real confidence, and a strong foundation with a firearm.

No gear necessary.
We take care of everything, so all you need to do is show up ready to learn. Please arrive a little early so you have time to check in and get settled before class begins.

Sentinel Academy is more than just a CCW class. It’s a guided training path designed to help you go beyond the bare minimum. First Shots gets you started. From there, Sentinel Academy helps you continue step by step so you can build the knowledge, confidence, and practical skill needed for responsible firearm ownership and your Ohio Concealed Carry journey.

Too many people treat concealed carry as a one-class checkbox. We believe it should be more than that.

That’s why Sentinel Academy is built as a 3-class progression—to help you go above and beyond the required state minimum, not just meet it. Our role is to guide you from beginner fundamentals into the kind of confident, capable training that prepares you for real-world responsibility.
