When dealing with the question of entrepreneurship, it may seem like a pretty straight forward answer at first. Veterans are known for quality traits: discipline, leadership, duty. Although these are necessary qualities in starting any business: to ultimately succeed, I believe that you must maintain a firm and consistent mindset. To quote Joan of Arc, “all battles are first won, or lost in the mind.”

First time shooting a handgun in my 40 years of life. Paul was on the ball! From safety to stance to shooting. I learned A LOT of information in a very short time. I absolutely recommend and plan to share with friends! Thank you Paul!!! Might be the start of a new addiction and past time!

Soteria agency had informed me of Sentri and the owner Paul with the ccw process and by far an amazing company and Paul REALLY broke down all the information easy and clearly. I was able to understand and he made class fun as well.

Paul was awesome! I took the Basics Firearms Course and it was a combination of classroom/range training. I learned a lot more than I thought I would and the training is all very simple and straightforward. With just a couple small technique changes I was able to greatly improve my confidence and accuracy. Great value for the training. Can’t wait to take the Advanced course.

Paul is an excellent trainer. In the time we spent together training on this class far surpassed other classes I have taken. I feel more prepared and equipped after training with him. His attention to detail and methods are superior. Thank you.

21:25 07 Feb 22

Paul worked with me on my CCW permit for Los Angeles. The class was limited on the number of students which was perfect for the personal instruction he afforded us. You'll love his personality and knowledge of all things CCW not to mention the live fire which was quite an experience on its own. If you are considering your CCW training, look no further, I highly, highly, recommend Paul.

05:45 13 Oct 21

I really enjoyed the class and the hands on experience with Paul. He's fun and very helpful. If you ever want to take maybe one of his course, you will never leave without the improvements by 30% as he said and that's true. Highly recommended.

Paul is a really good instructor. Good communication skills and he does know how to teach you the fundamentals and also correcting you. My skills were off but after a few minutes of him telling me that I should do it a certain way, my skills improved by a whooping 50%! Thats how good he is as an instructor! I recommend Paul 10/10!

08:19 31 Aug 21

Instantly Verifiable ResultsSentri offers an ego-less, concise, and an instantly verifiable basic firearms training class. Paul Peng instructs in a simple and easy-to-grasp fashion. He strips away what you don’t need and gives you the fundamentals needed to shoot with accuracy. This is verifiable on the range.On the range, we put in a number of rounds, at three different distances, all with additional hands-on instruction. Amazingly, our targets display better accuracy and tighter groupings than other targets on the range that day. This truly validates the knowledge Sentri drops on us. Additionally, Paul aptly pinpoints why other targets don’t look as good as ours thus reinforcing the fundamentals learned.We will definitely go with Sentri and Paul for further instruction here on out!!!Updated: 8/30/21Since last year I took two other classes with Sentri Institute. One was the CCW course. Which consisted of class instruction, a written test and a range test. There was a lot of material to cover and again, Paul presented it in a concise and easy to understand way. I was able to pass both the written and range test easily.The second class I took was the A.L.I.V.E. training course. It's a straight forward plan on what to do if one is ever caught in an active shooter situation. We went through statistics, situational awareness, concepts, and physically participated in a number of scenarios to help internalize the process. In some aspects, the course concepts may be hard to grasp, but Paul puts it all together so it sticks.

05:35 23 Aug 21

Paul Peng is by far the best instructors out there. Before my groupings were all over the place. But with the golden tip Paul instructed by using the trigger press and slightly hearing that click. My world changed from night and day. See pictures of the groupings.

20:27 16 Aug 21

Thank You to Paul at Sentri, it was a great experience. The format of the class was perfect and I received lots of knowledge from the course. This course is not imitating for those just starting out. Sentri comes highly recommended!

06:00 16 Aug 21

04:10 04 Aug 21

Great CCW course. Training was helpful and relevant. Paul is a very competent and knowledgeable trainer. I would highly recommend this course for anybody in the area looking for a CCW course.

I took basic course and looking forward to advanced one (AKA 'have more fun'). Paul not only explained every major point (including not obvious legal risk factors), but small corrections here and there made a huge difference to my accuracy at the end of the course.Some points:* Based on REAL world scenarios.* Instructor with a real experience, not the instructor 'who just knows how to'* You'll definitely get progress on aiming and hitting the target.The good stuff!

14:13 18 Jul 21

Excellent course , the instructor shared lots of knowledge and skill, it was totally worth the time spent. In one day I was able to improve my aim drastically. This class was awesome !

00:02 04 Jul 21

Paul was really good to learn from. He got all students engaged and was able to get the techniques and information across clearly.I would recommend taking the course to anyone wanting to improve their skills.

23:59 03 Jul 21

Paul was an awesome instructor. Very professional, very thorough. So glad I chose Sentri. Would highly recommend.

02:54 26 Jun 21

22:06 25 Jun 21

Great course. Great material. Easy to follow. Had good tips and instructions and helped corrected my grip and shot.

19:26 22 Jun 21

I want to take the time to thank Sentri Institute for all their classes. To date, I’ve taken their Basic training, Advance training, & A.L.I.V.E. Active Shooter Training Course. Paul Peng provides up-to-date information on firearm safety, He engages the class with hands on training on the range, and in-class demonstrations. For example he had the class use the skills we learned and simulated possible scenarios. We got to tackle Paul and take control of his weapon which was the highlight of his Active Shooter Training Course (for me). Not to mention, he has me looking at a pencil, water bottle, tables and chairs all as tools to keeping myself safe and alive. I share this with y’all because I haven’t touched a weapon in over a decade and I have small children at home. As a parent I was scared to have an accident in my home or around my children. I’m knowledgeable and comfortable with what steps I need to take to protect my family. This is why I highly recommend Sentri Institute.

20:14 21 Jun 21

I took my CCW class here and Paul is a great guy thats very knowledgeable. He is willing to help students to make sure they have the skills after they have completed the course to be ready out in the world for whatever happens. I would recommend signing up here for your CCW class needs.

20:36 12 Jun 21

My wife and I had a great time. The classroom instruction taught me much more than I expected. Then it was great to put everything to practice at the gun range.We've been to the range by ourselves but this was much better because we were given instructions that really helped use the gun properly giving us much more confidence and accuracy.

20:14 06 Jun 21

Highly recommend taking this course, Paul is a very knowledgeable instructor and I left the course confident in firearm safety, looking forward to taking more classes through Sentri Institute

20:55 26 Apr 21

Great place to learn. Very friendly instructor and great life experiencing.

02:14 21 Apr 21

Paul somehow achieves a perfect balance in strongly presenting the real danger and respect one must treat firearm ownership, with a splash of fun and removing some of the fear of the actual getting familiar with your gun in a safe and effective way.

04:52 18 Apr 21

Great class with a great instructor!

22:32 07 Apr 21

This is a must take course! From me thinking I was an OK shooter after taking Paul's course, I realized that I had no idea how to actually shoot properly and accurately. I improved tremendously and I'm more comfortable with my weapon and not to mention the patience Paul has. He makes sure you understand all the aspects on his CCW course.

21:58 05 Apr 21

Patient, knowledgeable, and a straight shooter (pun intended!) Paul has curated the experience of firearm safety and certification enjoyable, relatable, and fun. I am thrilled to recommend Paul to anyone looking for correct knowledge on his variety of programs he has to offer. I am excited to receive additional training and certification from Paul moving forward!

23:06 25 Feb 21

I highly recommend Paul for any firearm training! My husband and I took his CCW Renewal class this past weekend and Paul was very informative in both the classroom portion and on the range.

I recently completed a CCW Course with Paul at Sentri Institute. Paul is a fantastic firearms instructor, with many years of both civilian and military firearms experience. For the classroom portion of the course, Paul was very flexible and was able to accommodate instruction via Zoom. During the in-person instruction, Paul demonstrated proper holster draw methods, flash light techniques, and was able to make some minor adjustments to my stance and grip to really improve my accuracy. Finally, we completed the live fire testing portion, which was quite fun. Overall, the course was very informative and I would highly recommend going with Sentri Institute! Thanks again Paul!

04:01 03 Feb 21

Really appreciate the class! Learned a lot and what bad habits homeland security have been sharing. Thank you Paul you have lot's of knowledge.

I just finished a course with Paul this morning. I was lucky to be able to attend one and one session class with him. Paul was excellent in presenting the course material. He kept asking me for feedbacks so he could be sure that I understood all the course material. As a first time shooter, he gave confident to be a good shooter. I strongly recommend to take Paul's classes in you're interested on firearm training courses. I will take his courses in a heartbeat when I need firearm courses in the future. Thank you Paul !

01:41 10 Jan 21

Extremely professional organization, best training I have had in my many years of handling firearms. I would recommend this company for novice and experienced individuals. Paul and Karla really took care of us!

00:04 10 Jan 21

I have taken both 8 hour and 32 hour courses with Paul. He is extremely knowledgeable, and makes the curriculum easy to follow. There was never a dull moment or lack communication. His method for delivering the course made the time in front of a computer fly by. When it came down to be tested, I had almost verbatim answers memorized. I was completely prepared. I look forward to continued training and recertifications with Paul and Sentri Institute.

Soteria agency had informed me of Sentri and the owner Paul with the ccw process and by far an amazing company and Paul REALLY broke down all the information easy and clearly. I was able to understand and he made class fun as well.

Paul is an incredible instructor. He shares techniques that I have never been taught before in over 30 years that dramatically improve your skills. Paul patiently reinforces proper technique throughout the entire course and does it in a way that sticks. He brings real world examples to his instruction that explain not only the what but also the why behind what he’s teaching. I look forward to additional training from Paul and would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone looking to improve their firearm skills.

The training I received was terrific. I was good. This made me better. A keen eye identified a flaw and helped me correct that flaw with patience and professionalism. If your organization is looking for good quality at a good value you should definitely choose Sentri Institute, Inc.

What an amazing experience, Paul went above and beyond to show me the ropes. I walked in knowing nothing about guns and walked out with more than enough knowledge to confidently operate and purchase a firearm. He was very professional, kind and knowledgeable. It was well worth it, I will be returning for more advanced classes.

Paul's Guard Card class was very informative and he used real world scenarios that made the information relevant.

Thank you Paul for a GREAT Children's Essential Gun Safety Course for the WWP. It was very informative and we hope that we can get in on a (In-Person) Youth Course at the range. Thank you for providing us with the tools and another professional perspective to discuss this with our pre-teen son.

My wife and I had the privilege of taking Paul's class and I was highly impressed with his attention to safety, keeping things factual and focused when it came to the fundamentals of firearms handling. Paul is a veteran and a solid instructor. I'd reccomend Sentri to anyone and I'll definitely be back for any future training needs.
