Our Three Tiered Training Philosophy

SierraBravo’s training is built on a three-tiered foundation:

Awareness

Living “more in touch with the world around you” rather than constant hyper-vigilance.

It’s about being connected and observant of your environment and the needs of the people around you, “bringing the realistic aspect of how do you live your life in a more connected way with the folks around you with the situation around you and paying attention.”

Application

Practicing plans, refreshing skills, learning new techniques, and applying them to daily life.

Realistic & Pragmatic Approach

The materials emphasize the importance of realistic and pragmatic approaches to security, particularly in response to mass shooting events.

The goal is to “bring a realistic and pragmatic view to the world of defensive Firearms usage and firearm safety and preparedness”. This approach is also seen in the rejection of commonly-held beliefs about firearms and mass shootings.

prepared for any threat

Take Control

Your safety is in your hands, and taking control starts with awareness and preparation. Empowerment isn’t about fear—it’s about confidence and readiness.

Firearms Proficiency & Safety

At SierraBravo On Target, we believe in helping individuals take control of their personal safety.

Whether you’re new to firearms or looking to sharpen your skills, our courses provide the confidence and mindset needed to protect yourself and your loved ones.

Through immersive training—like our state-of-the-art virtual scenario sessions and real-world defensive tactics—you’ll gain the empowerment that comes from knowing you’re prepared for any situation.

No matter what your age, skillset or training need, we can provide you training that fits your needs!

COMMUNITY FOCUS

Safety isn’t just an individual goal; it’s about keeping our communities safe too.

From church security teams to local businesses and schools, we offer tailored training designed to help you protect what matters most to your community.

Whether it’s defending against mass shooter threats or building preparedness plans, our goal is to foster a culture of safety where everyone plays a role in defense. 

Learn how to combat common myths about firearms and become an advocate for real solutions to protect our homes, schools, places of worship, and work.

360 DEGREES OF DEFENSE

We go beyond the basics to offer a comprehensive defense strategy. Our training programs blend firearms proficiency, risk management, situational awareness, and legal preparedness. 

Leveraging the latest trends in training techniques and technologies, you’ll not only master firearm use but also learn how to avoid dangerous situations, handle post-incident legal implications, and stay prepared in today’s complex environment.

Our all-in-one approach ensures you’re covered at every stage of personal defense from foundational training to advanced tactics and ongoing skill development.

No, Alabama only issues CPLs to state residents. However, Alabama honors permits from all other states.

Where do I apply for a concealed pistol license?
You must apply at your county sheriff’s office. Each county may have different application procedures.

What documents do I need to apply?

How much does a concealed pistol license cost in Alabama?
The fee varies by county, but it is usually around $20-$30 per year.
