ABOUT US

Shoot Smart has been in development for many months and we have launched to provide South Africa with a complete turnkey solution. We have begun our roll out of a planned 24 indoor shooting ranges and training facilities as we look to FINALLY bring a much needed end to exploitive costs associated with becoming a responsibly armed and safe citizen.

 

Slashing prices is often associated with a low quality product offering and we have addressed this by appointing some of the highest qualified instructors available in South Africa. Ray Crichton has been appointed to lead the Shoot Smart Training Academy and comes with decades of experience including international accreditation with IPSC. 

 

Ray will be aptly supported by Walter Mosima who brings a wealth of real life experience having worked in both firearms transport, security and cash in transit. Walter then took the decision to become one of the most qualified instructors in the industry. Walter has completed almost every available course with PFTC and PSIRA and is now focused on developing his teaching skills in the tactical arena.

 

The Shoot Smart leadership group is backed by the board of The Tactical Nation and the brands they represent and rest assured our team is ready to provide the best possible firearms training in South Africa.
