Brady Blackner is the Owner of Uinta Precision Tactical LLC. Brady looked at the firearms industry and saw a need for more education and training. This need was clear as more and more attention is being placed on the firearms place in society. The need for individuals to be educated, competent, and confident shooters has never been greater. Brady noticed this type of training is often very expensive and often time out of reach of the everyday individual looking to improve upon their skillsets. He has set out to bring high quality, highly interactive, and experienced backed training to the everyday shooter at a price point that is manageable. The training UPT offers is beneficial to all levels of shooters. Classes range from fundamentals to advanced tactics and are carefully developed to begin a pattern of growth within the students. This pattern of growth will take the students from beginners to advanced shooters, should they choose to pursue it.
