Bravo-3 Training — Local services in Phoenix

I first met owner/instructor Mr. Ben Braasch and learned about his company Bravo-3 through another shooting school, and I am happy that I started training here as well. I live locally so I attend classes as often as I can (probably a dozen classes now). I enjoy training under Ben and he has taught me a lot. For example, I finally moved out of the Stone Age and purchased a pistol mounted red dot and earlier today in class Ben helped me to transition from iron sight shooting to the nuances of the red dot. Ben has many drills in his arsenal to keep the classes interesting (some that incorporate a lot of physical fitness too!), but even the “intro” classes keep me coming back. He has a particular passion for teaching pistol shooting, though I I’ve also trained to shoot rifles with him. Ben is also just an interesting person to talk to, full of stories from his time in the US Army or as a wrestling coach. I recommend highly that you train with Mr. Braasch and Bravo-3 Training.

P.S. I was lucky enough to be in class shortly after some new B3 patches were made so I got one for...

My husband and I first met Ben the owner at a group combat pistol training he led. In the group setting he was great at meeting each individuals needs and meeting them where they were at with their skill level. After that myself a friend and my daughter requested a private lesson to go over basic handgun safety. In both settings he was incredibly well versed and helpful! He worked great with my middle school aged daughter, and we all learned invaluable skills, tips and tricks to help make us better shooters. In addition I feel he imparted some basic gun safety knowledge and skills to help my daughter feel more comfortable and knowledgeable about handguns. I felt his pricing was incredibly reasonable. We were safe, learned something new and had a fun lesson! Highly recommend going with Bravo 3 if you are looking to start or expand your knowledge of practical, responsible firearms training!...

Ben was an absolute pro and a pleasure to work with. I brought in a brand new firearm that apparently had a defect - the adjustable bolt that controls the gas block blew out after I fired my 9th round, preventing it from properly chambering the next round. Ben quickly recognized that there was an issue, instructed me to stop attempting to manually chamber additional rounds, and then quickly diagnosed the issue. I would still be there trying to figure out what was wrong with the firearm if it weren’t for him. And if I had continued to shoot, I may have done further damage to the firearm which would have been an expensive lesson and potential safety hazard. If you need firearms training, go see...
