One-on-One Firearms Training, Built Around You
One-on-One Firearms Training, Built Around You
Private lessons at EastBay Firearms Livermore are one-on-one (or two-person) training sessions built around what you want to work on. You might have just finished our Introduction to Firearms course and want hands-on range time to put the basics into practice. You might be new to handguns and want to learn to handle one safely and confidently before you buy. Or you might be an experienced shooter looking to tighten up your fundamentals and build better habits. Because there’s no class to keep pace with, you get your instructor’s full attention, immediate feedback, and the freedom to slow down and repeat whatever isn’t clicking yet. Every lesson is live fire, and the pace, focus, and skill level are set by your goals rather than a fixed curriculum. You can book solo or bring a spouse, partner, or friend to learn alongside you, which many students find makes the experience more comfortable and more fun.
Lesson Options & Pricing
- 2-Hour Lesson, 1 Person: $240. A great follow-up to the Introduction to Firearms course, or a shorter, focused session.
- 3-Hour Lesson, 1 Person: $360. More time to work through fundamentals, practice, and ask questions.
- 3-Hour Lesson, 2 People: $390. Two-person lessons are always 3 hours so both students get enough time with the instructor. Lessons are limited to two people to keep the training personal.
Private lessons are available Mondays and Wednesdays between 10am and 6pm. Ammunition is not included (see below).

Firearms & Ammunition
You don’t need to own a firearm to take a lesson. We’ll provide one if you need it, so you can learn on the spot without any upfront investment. You’re also welcome to bring your own if you’d like to train with the firearm you plan to carry or use. Ammunition is not included in the lesson price. If you need ammo, tell us how much when you contact us.
After You Book
Once your lesson is confirmed, you’ll be able to reach Frank directly at frank@eastbayguns.com. Email him if you need to borrow a firearm, have questions about the class, or want to share details about your goals so he can prepare. Please use our contact form for all new bookings, as Frank can’t schedule lessons by email.
