1840 Training Mission

Today I wanted to give some insight about 1840's training and mission. Our overall mission is to take the unknown mystery and scariness out of firearms to the next generations. We believe that it's scary if it's the unknown, along with all the negative news, and bad people that haven given one of Americans most important freedoms a bad taste to most people. How can someone make a logical point if they themselves have never been exposed or educated with a firearm wether its a pistol, rifle or Shotgun. This is one of the unique things about 1840 training we are not former Military or Law enforcement background. We are each average Americans that believe we should keep and forge forward as an armed society. It was completely  unknown to me, but instead of fear it I chose to learn, expose myself to the different types of firearms so I could make a qualified judgement about guns. So my training and desire started out of the growing changes in society to protect me and my girls. Don't get me wrong my husband is an awesome man, but he isn't there with me and the girls every moment of each outing. So our desire is to be a safe, engaging place for learning to happen at all levels whether you are brand new to guns or more advance.
