Sioux Falls Shooting

My name is Andy Erickson. I am a NRA Certified Instructor and am certified at the South Dakota Law Enforcement Training Center to teach the South Dakota Enhanced Concealed Pistol Use of Force course. I have been teaching since June of 2016.

I have a passion for shooting sports and hunting. I thoroughly enjoy interacting with people and teaching and coaching them how to shoot, and the way to safely use and enjoy firearms and the exercise of our Second Amendment rights.

I enjoy deer and pheasant hunting but my real passion is competitive shooting. I am a Master Class USPSA shooter and also compete in other shooting sports. I believe there is no better way to sharpen a shooters skills than through competitive shooting sports, even if just for fun.

“I've spent most of my shooting career with handguns and signed up for Andy's rifle class because I wanted to learn the basics as well as some intermediate-level AR rifle skills. Early on in the class, Andy corrected my shooting stance and position which lead to an immediate improvement in my accuracy. He did a nice job of building on each lesson till the end of class when he had us moving and shooting fast yet still expecting accuracy. The class was really fun. I learned a lot and went home with skills that I need to work on. I would highly recommend this class to anyone wanting to build proficiency with their rifle.”

“This was the best day ever! I learned so much from Andy and I went from not knowing or touching a gun to handling a gun with no fear! I came home with a great feeling of excitement that I want to learn more! Andy I can't thank you enough for the wisdom, encouragement, listening, and humor that was given to me and all the ladies. It was a great time ladies and thank you as well!”

“I had a great experience. Thanks Andy for being patient with all of us and still have a sense of humor!!! Very informative and I also felt more comfortable being able to handle a gun and feeling safe. I do lea
