WHO WE ARE
The Ammo Academy is a Southeast Michigan firearms training company focused on private instruction, Michigan CPL training, private group training, and church safety education.
​
We serve individuals, couples, families, private groups, and churches who want a more thoughtful, professional, and personalized training experience. Our goal is not to push every student through the same path. Our goal is to help each client find the right training for their experience level, responsibilities, and real-world needs.
​
In a world where personal safety, judgment, and preparedness matter more than ever, good training should do more than check a box. It should build understanding, confidence, and practical skill.

A BETTER TRAINING EXPERIENCE
Not everyone learns best in a crowded public class.
Some students are brand new to firearms and need patient, safety-first instruction. Others are seeking a more serious and personalized Michigan CPL experience. Some want to train with a spouse or family member. Others are looking for guidance for a church, ministry team, or security committee.
The Ammo Academy was built for those students.
​
We believe training should be:
​
-
safe and responsible
-
practical and relevant
-
tailored to the student in front of us
-
honest about what someone is, or is not, ready for
-
worth the time and money invested
