Do You Need Our Free Handgun Training?
Perhaps not, if you can perform these drills as specified*:
- controlled pair (1.0 sec at close contact, 1.3 sec at either 3m or close with palm strike & step back, 1.5 sec at 7m)
- four targets at 5m (2.1 sec)
- designated head shot (1.3 sec at 5m, 1.5 sec at 7m)
- hostage rescue head shot (both sides, 1.5 sec at 7m)
- tactical reload (3.5 sec)
- emergency reload (1.0 sec)
- malfunction clearance (1.0 sec for failure to fire, 1.2 sec for failure to eject, 4.0 sec for failure to extract)
Keep in mind that an average man carrying a knife can run 27 feet in 1.5 seconds. And don’t forget inertia!
*Above are master test times. Our standard skills test is much easier! Very few can pass all drills in the master test, and that is the point: we all need to continue training simply to maintain these perishable skills, let alone improve them.
Standard skills test (for waiver of monthly Client Maintenance Plan fee):
- tactical reload (4.5 sec)
- emergency reload (2.4 sec)
- malfunction clearance (1.4 sec for failure to fire, 1.6 sec for failure to eject, 6.5 sec for failure to extract)
Standard test is performed with concealment. There is no “shooting” in our standard test. There is some practice of draw/shoot at or our weekly Friday dry practice clinic (simulated with airsoft trainers), more on shooting fundamentals at our Saturday LaserShot competitions (prizes awarded).

The GUNTRUST® Course
Step ONE: Estate Planning Priorities "Quick Quiz"
Submit our Estate Planning Priorities Quiz (Free Gun Training version) — it’s multiple choice, easy and quick!
There is no requirement to hire us, or buy anything, to get the free gun training.
When we receive your submission, we will add you as a guntrust.org FREE member so you can RSVP for the free training.
*OPTIONAL* Step TWO: Estate Planning Webinar
Not required. But maybe we can answer “some quick questions” for you as you practice gun handling, if ahead of time you watch our webinar, Estate Planning for Family Protection:
http://FreeEstatePlanningSeminar.com
(Total viewing time: 51 minutes)
If you are married, watch this together with your spouse.
*OPTIONAL* Step THREE: GUN TRUST Webinar
Step FOUR: Attend our Free Gun Training!
Use your free guntrust.org site membership to log in and RSVP for one of the free airsoft training events at our office. (Online training is available for those who cannot make it to our office.) You will want to keep coming back! And you can do that, free of charge, as long as you bring someone new with you. You never have to hire us or buy anything to get this free gun training! (Our training is for ADULTS ONLY, due to blatantly unconstitutional and vague AB 2571.)
Step FIVE: Take Home Free Stuff
If you tell us your estate planning priorities in the quiz, and watch both free webinars, you get this free swag once you attend the free gun training:
- Free Hat or Visor
- Free Estate Planning Strategies book (advisors only)
- Free 3×5 “tea party” flag (see samples on this page)
(You are still welcome to the free gun training even if you don’t watch the webinars or tell us your estate planning priorities — just fill out the quiz selecting the “i just want the free training” option.)

What is the Problem with the California CCW Class?
The problem is that state law prohibits instructors from requiring more than 16 hours of instruction. We believe that is inadequate, especially in a class format, to transform a new shooter into a well-regulated, unconsciously competent defensive shooter. The only true path to attaining comfort of skill at arms is to engage in many hours (a lot more than 16) of perfect dry practice, in addition to live fire practice and other instruction.
Our Solution: Lots of FREE Training!
We have a solution to dangerously inadequate CCW classes: lots of FREE training at our office.
How can you provide all this training FREE?!
By providing our free training, we are really paying you to sit and learn about estate planning so you can educate others about the importance of planning (as well as training) for family protection. We want you to feel as passionate about estate planning as you are about firearms, and spread this passion to others. We want you to come back for more training and bring your entire neighborhood with you, eventually (not all at once, please). We never do any selling at our educational events. Selling occurs at your free design meeting, should you wish to participate in one of those (totally up to you, whenever you are ready).
LawNews.TV®
"Nothing is as powerful as an idea whose time has come." --Victor HugoLawNews.TV® was an idea ahead of its time. Created in the year 2000 by Attorney David Duringer to deliver legal information and counsel over the internet, the service used cutting edge technology of the time such as Webex to conduct highly productive, content-rich web meetings. But the practice was mainly local at that time and people naturally prefer meeting in person, so apart from our periodic LawNews.TV® newsletters and webinars, the web meeting aspect of the service was used mainly by clients residing in Washington State or more remote areas of California, or clients confined to their homes.
Fast forward to 2020: Everyone is confined to their homes. Plus we moved our main office to the Central Coast, so everyone is remote.
LawNews.TV® ... an idea whose time has come!
Will people learn to love confinement? Let's hope not. Let's hope we can all get back to normal social life ASAP. We do have satellite offices located throughout California for clients who prefer to meet in person, but even local clients enjoy the flexibility of meeting with us over the web as their "in-house" counsel.
LawNews.TV® is there for you. Try it out for free!
