About
Civilian Arms Training Source offers advanced tactical firearms training based on Center Axis Training Systems (CATS), a modern gunfighting method evolved from Paul Castle's original Center Axis Relock system. Their instructors were personally trained and certified by Paul Castle before his passing in 2011, carrying forward his legacy with refined techniques for today's tactical realities. The training focuses on 360-degree control, weapon retention, tactical movement, and adaptability across pistol, rifle, and shotgun applications.
All classes meet California DOJ and local sheriff requirements. Students receive a certificate of completion and range qualification results on the day of training.
