I recently had the pleasure of taking a concealed carry class with Bryan from PDX Arsenal, and I can't recommend him enough. From start to finish, Bryan was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly engaging. His teaching style is clear and approachable, making even the most complex concepts easy to understand. He creates a relaxed atmosphere that helps build confidence, and his real-world insights add tremendous value to the training. Bryan took the time to answer every question thoroughly, and you could tell he genuinely cares about his students’ safety and success. Whether you're new to firearms or just need a refresher, Bryan is the instructor you want. Highly recommended!

“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 years after his class.”

“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.

“I feel like Bryan’s team really cares about the people they have in the classes & willing to help with any questions even weeks after the class.”
“The class was not all stuffy & strict. I felt welcome & not out of place at all. Bryan made the class interesting by giving examples, not just reading from some power point scripted lesson. He showed important safety recommendations & examples as to why it’s important. I’m looking forward to range time to become more confident with my new gun. I would recommend this class to everyone who shows interest in obtaining their concealed carry certification.”

“Not only is he passionate but he is very informative and supportive. No question goes unanswered, including after the class is over. He has an amazing open door policy with continued support in regards to gun safety and laws. I highly recommend his class and look forward to scheduling more training classes in the future with his company.”

“In the field of instructors we tend to take someone’s certification and experience with a grain of salt. PDX Arsenal not only sets the standard, but have proved to me that they are the best in the Pacific Northwest.”

“I had the pleasure of meeting Bryan Mumford through a mutual ASP Handcuff instructor one day. At the time I was interested in obtaining my Oregon CHL. Bryan took the time to clarify a few misconceptions I had with Multnomah county and their concealed laws. It was a nice relief as an Instructor myself to meet someone with the same professional demeanor we teach our peers. After speaking about my requests I realized the benefit of Pairing my Oregon CHL with the Utah concealed license that PDX Arsenal offers. I frequently visit Washington and Utah’s license has reciprocity with many more states, most notably Washington. I attended Bryan’s course and was amazed at the depth of knowledge in which his course carries. From a first timer to the most advanced student PDX Arsenal’s course laid down some great info. Everyone in my course that day left with more experience than they came with, and a better understanding in which the law requires. This course is one which I’ve spoken highly about to anyone interested in a safe and professional training seminar. It’s nice to see that Bryan Mumford has taken this course and perfected it to suit anyone interested in firearm training and education.”
