WELCOME TO MDHT

TESTIMONIALS
We hired Pete to come to our place over several visits and help us learn how to use handguns. He helped my wife in selecting a handgun for her. He stressed safety and made the process fun. By the end of our sessions, we felt way more confident in protecting ourselves. We plan to use him for “refresher series”.
