BRYAN MUMFORD
At the early age of 12 years old, Bryan’s interests included competitive shooting, firearm safety and gunsmithing. Looking to turn his passion into a career, Bryan founded PDX Arsenal in 2011 at the age of 21. He began his firearm instructing career as a handgun tactics Instructor, working with local law enforcement and Oregon national guard service members. Bryan also gained a vast amount of his industry experience by working as a assembly lead and manager for some of the largest firearm manufacturers in the world like Sig Sauer Electro-Optics, Smith & Wesson corp. as well as Crimson Trace corp. Realizing that he had more to offer the community, Bryan began instructing his multi-state concealed handgun licensing classes for both the National Rifle Association (NRA) as well as Utah’s Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI). Since founding PDX Arsenal LLC, Bryan has grown PDX Arsenal into Portland’s premier and top-rated concealed handgun licensing/firearm training company. He has personally certified over 17,000 Portland, OR area residents, and is revered as Portland’s top instructor.

TESTIMONIALS
“I went to Bryan Mumford for my CHL after being absolutely flooded with positive reviews and recommendations for his classes. His prices were competitive and he was the only instructor to hold the classes in such a comfortable, relaxing location where it was easy to focus and learn. His class was educational as well as fun. I have joined his fandom and have sent at least a dozen students his way. I recommend him to everyone and tag him in everything. He is an incredible instructor and a wonderful man who is always there for his students, even if you have inquiries a year after his class.”
– Kylie Gerke
“My family I and I decided to contact Bryan for his concealed class. With a younger son we wanted to educate him on the importance of gun safety. Bryan did a great job, not only was my husband and I educated on the laws and regulations but our now 11 year old son walked away with the importance of gun safety and understanding that they are not toys to play with.
I highly recommend PDX Concealed for the whole family.”
– The Mclaughlin family
“I took my Oregon CHL through Bryan (PDX Arsenal) in March of 2015. Bryan is a GREAT instructor! Making sure we knew when we are able to protect ourselves and when not to legally. Taught us firearm safety thoroughly. I HIGHLY recommend PDX Arsenal for your CHL needs!”
