High Standard Tactical

Welcome to your home for the best firearms and personal defense training in Bryan/College Station, Texas!​

High Standard Tactical’s mission is to provide high-quality training in the critical skills of safe and proficient use of firearms and other tools of self-defense. Our training curriculum is built on a foundation of evidence-based practice, lessons learned, and current industry trends. The Instructor Cadre of High Standard Tactical are all trained professionals standing on the shoulders of the giants. Unlike some infamous “instructors,” our courses teach proven strategies which consistently yield real results in real-world practice - no made-up gun-fu nonsense.
A heritage of warriors and armed professionals centuries long stands behind us as we ride the front edge of the wave, teaching only the cutting edge of combat skills to all of our students.
Though some class dates may occasionally be restricted to Law Enforcement or Military personnel, none of our content is exclusively taught to the agents of the state. We believe every free citizen in society is entitled to the fullest measure of skills and equipment useful in the safe, legal, moral, and prudent defense of life, liberty, and property.
Proficiency is paramount, standards measure proficiency, and High Standards mean survival.
