I attended the Wear and Carry permit training class this past weekend, and it was a great experience. As someone handling and shooting firearms for the first time, I appreciated how comfortable and easy Hector made the learning process. He’s very knowledgeable about firearms and explained everything in a clear, practical way.

I attended Hector Vivieca's firearms training class the weekend of March 22 and  23, 2025 to obtain my conceal to carry license.  Hector has significant expertise in firearms training, protection and certification. He delivers high-quality teaching and takes the time to ask questions to ensure you have understanding of the material during training. His teaching/repetitive approach to learning is impressive and definitely improves the learning experience! His training emphasizes safety, accuracy and responsible handling of the firearm. I highly recommend you choose Hector as your lead training instructor. If you never owned a gun or have any fear at all pertaining to gun safety and handling;  please choose Hector. It was an absolute joy to take his class. Thanks for a great and valuable experience!

I highly recommend Guardsidium! Hector is a fantastic trainer, especially for those who are beginners and/or apprehensive when it comes to firearms. He is very knowledgeable, experienced, patient, professional, and (most importantly) safety focused! I greatly appreciate his ability to bring his real-world personal experiences into his lessons. He has certainly seen it all. If you are even remotely interested in learning more about and becoming comfortable and confident with firearms, this is the training and trainer for you! Thank you Hector!!
