Located in Harford County, Maryland, Team Grizzly Firearms Training specializes in high-quality defensive firearms training. Our mission is to empower individuals with the skills and confidence needed to protect themselves and their loved ones.

Our Training Philosophy:

• Every session has a clear purpose, focusing on practical, real-world techniques.

• Our first line of defense is being aware of our surroundings to avoid or evade threats. If you can't avoid, being able to de-escalate a situation is the next step. Using a lethal tool is ALWAYS a last resort.

• Understanding the legal use of force is essential for being a responsibly armed citizen.

• We prepare students for high-pressure situations by leveraging natural human reactions to stress.

• Our training builds muscle memory and tactical awareness for quick, effective responses to threats.

Our Commitment:

• We transform non-shooters and recreational shooters into skilled defensive shooters.

• Our experienced instructors create a supportive environment for all

  experience levels.

• We emphasize hands-on instruction and realistic scenarios to build confidence and mental fortitude.

At Team Grizzly, we don’t just teach firearms handling; we prepare our students to protect what matters most.

"Mike Thomas at Team Grizzly provided excellent firearms training. His clear instruction and focus on safety were incredibly helpful. What I didn't expect was how much I'd improve my mindset and decision-making under pressure. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking to improve their firearm skills with a knowledgeable and patient instructor." - Ann Davidson
