Jeffrey Tutino
- NRA Chief Range Safety Officer
- NRA Certified Pistol Instructor
- NRA Certified Rifle Instructor
- NC DOJ Certified Concealed Carry Handgun Instructor
Born and raised in the greater Seattle, WA. Area, Jeff relocated his wife Mona and their two daughters to No. Carolina in 1995. As a Life Member of the NRA since he was 12 years of age, Jeff grew up an avid pheasant hunter and ‘Gunner’ for local and state Field Trials. The passion for the shooting sports has always been a part of his life, but until recently, never his occupation. Jeff has spent the bulk of his professional career in the Racing and Performance Industry as both a National Brand Manager and Operations Manager for highly respected industry suppliers of products and services. He also conducted product training to some of the largest parts distributors throughout the U.S. As a former Patriot Gun Club member at Point Blank, Jeff decided he wanted to utilize his sales and training skills to help others to understand situational awareness and to empower them with the skills and confidence to protect themselves and loved ones should the need arise. His attention to detail and communication skills are some of what make Jeff one of our better RSO’s and Conceal Carry Instructors. In addition to his training of others, Jeff continues to study and enhance his knowledge and skills from some of the leaders in firearms instruction.
