Tap Rack Bang Training

Tap Rack Bang Training operates as a full-time firearms training company led by CEO and Chief Instructor Ernie Medina alongside instructors Josh Cabato and Tyrin Bailous, bringing over 30 combined years of experience training US Marines, law enforcement, and civilians. The company positions itself as relentless Second Amendment advocates focused on developing capable civilian defenders through practical, no-nonsense training rather than range theatrics. They offer 2-Day CCW courses priced at $300-$475 and 1-Day CCW Renewal courses at $300, serving applicants in Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego counties with direct booking through their online class calendar. Beyond basic CCW certification, Tap Rack Bang provides a structured curriculum including Fundamental Pistol and Rifle classes, Advanced CCW courses emphasizing six essential self-defense skills, and Fighting Rifle training for tactical AR-15 proficiency. Private training sessions accommodate personalized instruction with up to two students at no additional cost, available at FT3 Tactical where firearms and gear can be rented. The company distinguishes itself with a CCW White Glove service that assists applicants through the administrative process, addressing common denial reasons in the Orange County Sheriff's Department and Los Angeles Sheriff's Department application systems. Training sessions emphasize situational awareness, safe holster draws, and practical defensive applications, with strict prerequisites ensuring students already demonstrate firearms safety competency before advancing to intermediate courses. Their specialized Armed & Anchored program combines structured training with fellowship for men seeking growth in discipline and faith alongside tactical skills.
