Why Dauntless
Built on Discipline. Driven by Responsibility.
Dauntless Consulting was founded on a simple belief: every law-abiding citizen who chooses to carry deserves world-class instruction — not a rubber-stamp class.
The Story Behind Dauntless
With over 35 years of experience in law enforcement, military service and Federal Aviation Security, I bring a wealth of real- world experience to firearms instruction. I am a retired Federal Air Marshal with 24 years of practical concealed carry experience. I have served as a firearms instructor at both the state and federal levels, providing professional training focused on safety, proficiency, confidence and responsible firearm ownership.
The name Dauntless reflects our core philosophy: fearless in the pursuit of excellence, unwavering in our commitment to safety, and resolute in our belief that an armed citizen is a prepared citizen.
Based in South Carolina, we serve students across the Lowcountry and beyond — from first-time gun owners to experienced shooters looking to sharpen their skills and earn their CWP.
Our Training Philosophy
Safety Above All
The four cardinal rules of firearm safety are non-negotiable. Every drill, every exercise, every conversation starts there.
Competence Builds Confidence
We don't just teach you to pass a test. We teach you to handle a firearm with the skill and mindset that responsible carry demands.
Personalized Instruction
Small class sizes mean you get real attention. We meet you where you are — whether you've never touched a gun or you've been shooting for years.
Legal Awareness
Understanding South Carolina's use-of-force laws is just as important as marksmanship. We cover both.
