About Us.
Personal Firearms Instruction That Fits You
Personal firearms instruction should never feel overwhelming or impersonal. At Firearms Academy, we believe that every student deserves to be seen, understood, and guided in a way that makes sense for their goals. Whether you’re completely new to firearms or looking to sharpen your skills, our training is designed around real people—not rigid programs.
We’ve trained students of all ages and backgrounds, from cautious first-time shooters to professionals needing to stay sharp. The idea is simple: real instruction that matches your pace, respects your starting point, and helps you move forward with confidence.
Our Story and How We Train
Firearms Academy was built on the idea that quality training should feel personal. Founded by Voskan Azaryan, an experienced instructor certified to teach both general and concealed carry programs, the Academy was created to fill a gap: training that’s practical, professional, and approachable.
Classes are held in small groups or private sessions across outdoor ranges in Los Angeles County. You’ll learn everything from firearm safety and handling to advanced skills like low-light movement or carbine use. We don’t rush. We don’t overcomplicate. We focus on what works—and we make sure you actually understand it.
Who We Train…
We welcome everyone. New gun owners. Women looking to feel more secure. Parents teaching their teens about safety. Even professionals looking to refresh their skills. Every student receives honest feedback, patient instruction, and a course structure that makes sense for them.
Our youth classes emphasize education over fear. Our women’s courses are taught with respect and clarity. And our CCW and tactical programs are built on experience—not theory. We train like it matters, because it does.
