Gary Smith

Gary’s love for shooting brought him to Gunsite and a love for teaching kept him here. Gary Smith got his introduction to shooting from his dad at the age of 3; And by the age of 7 he was hunting. Gary started his teaching career in archery for his high school. At Gunsite, Gary inspires students in handgun, carbine, and shotgun. He is one of the few instructors qualified to teach long-range rifle courses. When Gary isn’t motivating students at Gunsite, he is sharing his wealth of knowledge on The Outdoor Channel.

About Gunsite

Gunsite offers firearm training to elite military personnel, law enforcement officers and free citizens of the US. We knowledgeable Americans take our rights very seriously, and the Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States guarantees each citizen the right to keep and bear arms. However, with each right comes an equal responsibility to discharge that right effectively, legally, safely and within the bounds of morality. Rights demand responsibility. Owning a piano does not make one a pianist any more than owning a handgun makes one a good shooter. Only an effective, safe and authoritative program of study can guarantee that in a moment of danger YOU will act to protect yourself, your loved ones or the ones you are sworn to with self defense firearms training skills.
