The only thing you need to take this course is a desire to learn and way to access the internet. (You wouldn’t be reading this if you didn’t already have both of those.) While there are a number of items that I would recommend people own for safety purposes, and we do sell them on this site and in my academy- like tactical flashlights, tactical pocket knives, survival lighters, and even hidden handcuff key bracelets- everything you need, you already have. I do also have my Federal Firearms License, and I specialize in personal service and custom orders. If you enjoy shooting sports, or you would like a firearm for your home, you can definitely purchase through me, directly. I’m proud to say that I can usually beat any price on any NEW gun that you may desire (and be legally able to own). Again, though, you don’t need anything you don’t already have to take this course. (I don’t know, maybe you will want to grab a snack prior to watching the training videos. If so, I recommend a healthy snack, maybe some fruit, nuts, or some veggies.) On a side note, while I have some gear for sale on my site, other sites that I have found that have quality gear for sale include www.realitysurvival.com and www.thereadystore.com.
