The Second Amendment was adopted on December 15, 1791. It reads:
"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."
Growing up in Jacksonville, Jeffrey has always been exposed to the military and the freedoms the United States offers. Even though professionally, Jeffrey entered the Information Technology sector, his interest in firearms, hunting and personal protection led him back to the education of others. Jeffrey is a certified NRA Instructor and is one of our NC Concealed Carry instructors. In addition to instruction, Jeffrey is also available to assist with FFL & NFA transfers.
