Cochise Shooters was organized to provide CCW classes and workshops in Defensive Pistol Shooting. Our classes are taught by qualified NRA certified instructors, some with law enforcement and military backgrounds. These instructors are personable and dedicated individuals who pride themselves in transferring the firearms skills necessary for a citizen to carry a concealed firearm safely. We pride ourselves in providing quality instruction for a reasonable cost. Cochise Shooters also conducts a monthly Defensive Pistol Match which provides a venue for practicing the skills taught at the workshops. We know you will enjoy these classes and if you participate in the monthly competition you will find the pistol workshop invaluable.
