Women only – Freedom From Fear SeminarAlthough we will talk about defending yourself with a gun, this seminar is not all about using a gun. This seminar will teach the students how to stay safe in all kinds of situations. Have you ever been home alone and afraid? Have you been in your car and been involved in a frightening situation?

Home Defense SeminarThis seminar covers all the things that you can do to make your home or apartment less of a target for burglars and home invaders. You have worked hard for your possessions and you do not want to come home and discover that someone has broken-in and taken your belongings. What’s worse is to be home and have someone break-in. What can you do in a situation like that? Do you know what the law is? Do you know what is legal and not legal as far as your response is concerned? Over the years, Guy Minnis, the Director of Training with HARD TARGET, worked for the Evansville Police Department and the vast majority of his police career he worked as a detective investigating felony crimes committed by adults.Instructor: Guy MinnisBooks/Cost: Handouts included in course cost.

Gun MaintenanceDo you know how to clean and maintain your firearms? Do you know how often you should clean your gun? What kind of gun cleaning solution and gun oil should you use? All of these questions and many more will be answered to your satisfaction at the Gun Maintenance class.

In this class we will talk about the cleaning supplies that are needed and how they should be used to maintain your gun in good working order and also preserve the value of your gun. Using the wrong gun cleaning gear can actually cause damage to your expensive firearm, so do not make the same common mistakes that many gun owners make while attempting to clean and maintain their firearms.

We will help you to select the gun cleaning gear for your gun cleaning kit and will also help you to decide which gun cleaner best suits your needs.Instructor: Guy MinnisBooks/Cost: Handouts included in course cost.

Location: TBA


How to Select the Right FirearmYou have made the decision to purchase your first firearm, but do you know what you should buy and where to buy it? It is important to know the reason for the gun purchase. Do you want a gun so you can protect your home and family? Do you want a gun that you can carry for personal defense purposes? Or maybe you just want to purchase a gun so you can go shooting at a gun range for the fun of it. Also, should you buy a new gun or a used gun?

This class will help you determine the reason for your gun purchase and then we will help you decide what kind of gun will be best for your individual needs. We will help guide you so that you purchase a quality firearm, one that will last you a lifetime, and will be safe for you and your family to use.

You will learn about the laws concerning a gun purchase, where to purchase a gun, and about how much it will cost for the gun of your choice.Instructor: Guy MinnisBooks/Cost: Handouts included in course cost.

Guy Minnis Director of Training

Guy Minnis is the owner and operator of HARD TARGET Firearms Training. He is a retired detective with the Evansville Police Department (EPD) having served the citizens of Evansville for 33 years, 5 months, and 11 days. Guy has investigated numerous shootings over the years, including investigations of police involved shootings. In fact, Guy was involved in a deadly force encounter in 1985 and all of these experiences have given him a unique perspective on lethal encounters.

Guy has been a firearms instructor for 25 plus years and he was the Firearms Training Coordinator for the EPD from 2001 to 2005. During that time he was responsible for the EPD’s firearms training program where he completely revamped the program and lead the EPD into the 21st century. Guy was also fully responsible for designing and implementing the first ever three week firearms training program for the new Southwestern Indiana Law Enforcement Academy which trains newly hired law enforcement officers in Southern Indiana.

Guy is a graduate of the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy in Plainfield, Indiana; he has an Associate of Science Degree in Criminal Justice and a Bachelor of Science Degree in Organizational Management from Oakland City University. He is currently an adjunct instructor for ITT Technical Institute in the Criminal Justice Program, and he was honorably discharged from the United States Marine Corps as a Corporal, “0311” (grunt) in 1976.

Guy qualified as Expert with the M16 rifle while in the Marine Corps and qualified as a NRA Distinguished Expert with his duty handgun with the EPD. During Guy’s police career, he carried revolvers, semi-auto pistols, a Remington 870 shotgun, and a Colt AR15 rifle. During his ten years with the EPD SWAT Team, Guy was a member of the entry team, the explosive entry team, and was the primary sniper. Guy used the venerable Winchester Model 70 scoped .308 bolt action rifle as a team sniper.

Although it has nothing to do with firearms training, it is important to mention that Guy spent 7 years with the EPD Bomb Squad as a Bomb Technician. Guy was trained in Huntsville, Alabama at Redstone Arsenal as a Hazard Devices Technician. While Guy was with the Bomb Squad, Guy and team members disposed of more unstable dynamite than at any other time in the history of the EPD.
