Welcome to Valley Defense
Vince and Christie Bizzini began Valley Defense Consulting, Inc after receiving numerous inquiries about where and how to find both quality and local firearms training for the general public.
As a 32-year law enforcement officer, Vince has trained hundreds of law enforcement professionals, military units, and law enforcement cadets. While acting as the regional police academy’s lead firearms instructor, Vince developed numerous courses for pistol, rifle, and shotgun. Prior to his retirement in 2011, he was also the lead firearms instructor/armorer for his agency and was tasked with all firearms training, program development, and firearm maintenance. Vince’s reputation as an extremely skilled firearms instructor and class A instructor precedes him. He is very well known as an expert in his field throughout several surrounding counties and is highly regarded by the organizations that have trained him, as well as the organizations to which he has provided training.
Christie has acquired a vast amount of knowledge in her more than 20 years in the law enforcement industry. Serving the community as a Police Officer, Community Service Officer, Legal Clerk, and Firearms Instructor, she has had the opportunity to experience law enforcement, firearms, and our community from a variety of perspectives. Through all this, she has found she has a passion for the challenge and responsibility of firearms training. Christie is a Glock Armorer, a Taser International-certified Taser Instructor/Armorer, and became a state-certified firearm instructor in 2001 through CA POST (CA Peace Officer Standards & Training) when she began teaching private citizens. Before it’s closure, she was a valued firearms instructor at the regional police academy for over five years, where she taught several hundred police cadets, many of them being current or former military personnel.
Both Vince and Christie have trained at internationally recognized firearms training institutes. As for the quality of their training program, they have set the bar high…and they’ll leave it there…to offer you the best.
Valley Defense Consulting brings you all the advantages of both instructors being trained by the world’s best and imparting that training to you at the local level…and at better than reasonable costs. They are both esteemed members of IALEFI (International Association of Law Enforcement Firearms Instructors).
The citizen who wishes to be more informed and trained with their firearm has had few local choices until now. Most organized professional training has been obtained by costly travel and steep tuition, but no more! Valley Defense Consulting has brought state-of-the-art firearms training to our area.
Whether your interest in firearms is recreational or self-defense/home protection, Valley Defense Consulting has a course for you.
Valley Defense Consulting does not operate in a “boot camp” or “soldier for a day” environment. The training is real and organized yet structured so that each student is grounded in basic firearms skills. Confidence and security are obtained by training for a skill set, and they provide that training from basic to dynamic.
