Liberty Defensive TrainingAbout Liberty Defensive Training
A Michigan CPL school in Southeast Michigan, started and run by Chuck and Gina Norton.
Liberty Defensive Training LLC is a family business. Gina Norton owns and runs it, Chuck Norton teaches, and the two of them started it together for a reason that has not changed since.
Classes meet the Michigan concealed pistol license training requirement, so the certificate you leave with is valid when you apply at your county clerk.
Chuck Norton
Training Facilitator, USCCA certified instructor
Chuck has been involved in training of one kind or another for more than twenty years. Before he taught firearms he helped put a Six Sigma program in place across three factory plants, which is a long way of saying he has spent a career breaking complicated things down until an ordinary person can follow them. That is what he does in the classroom.
He has had a passion for firearms since he was about six years old, and he has held a Michigan concealed pistol license since they first became available. He is certified through the US Concealed Carry Association for Concealed Carry Fundamentals and Home Defense Fundamentals.
He became a pastor in 2006 and still volunteers as a chaplain, working with survivors of domestic violence. Helping people in that situation is a large part of why he and Gina started the school.

What to expect in the classroom
Questions are the point
You are not going to sit and watch videos all day. Ask whatever you need to ask, at whatever point you need to ask it.
Your pace, not the room's
Skill levels in a CPL class are always mixed. You get coached where you are rather than where the fastest person in the room is.
Training the state accepts
Classes meet the Michigan CPL training requirement, so your certificate is valid when you apply at your county clerk.
