I created a post a month ago asking for ideas for a gun-related business and another for a gun-related job, and got a lot of good replies.
I'm seriously considering a business providing gun instruction. My question now is: Is it difficult, or easy, becoming a gun instructor? Can I just get training and certify as a Certified NRA gun instructor and put out my shingle to do business? Is it something you can make a living with?
I don't have LE background or any special military background as a weapons expert, but I've been shooting for awhile. And I've had a little experience teaching other subjects before (not a professional educator, but I'm comfortable being in front of people for seminars), and I'm experienced running a business and good at promotions and marketing a business. I'm not looking to teach military or SWAT teams anyway, but ordinary people (I've thought about specialty instruction for women and children).
What do you think?
