Assistant Professor of Aerospace Studies
“On behalf of AFROTC Det. 040, I would like to thank you and your staff for all of your hard work, professionalism and dedication for instructing ten of our cadets on the principles and practices of small arms combat. The level of detail the instruction went into clearly showed why your program is one of the best in the world.
Again, thank you very much for taking the time to instruct future officers of the Air Force. I can assure you that the skills will be carried into active duty when becoming 2nd Lieutenants. We greatly look forward to any additional training from your school in the future.”
At the mid-point of our work together I want to compliment you and your colleagues on the way in which you have helped Pepperdine University think about security and to prepare for an event that we all hope will never happen. Your experience and your insistence on careful, thorough training are proving to be very useful to us.
We are educators - first, foremost and finally. Nevertheless parents expect us to be trained and, indeed, educated on those things that no one can anticipate fully. Your expertise is causing us to think differently and to prepare practically. I thank you for that.
Thanks for your candor and your willingness to work with us.”

“Just wanted to send a long overdue thank you for one of the most enjoyable weeks I have ever had. Ended up having to move to Bragg early and am headed out the door with my unit for 12 months of sand and fun in Afghanistan. Can’t thank you enough for your professionalism, instruction, and one on one guidance you provided. Looking forward to the next time I can make it back out that way! In the mean time, all the best to you and your staff. Thank you!!!”
“I just wanted to pass on again my profound appreciation for the instruction you provided our cadets recently. They have raved about the great experience from your staff’s outstanding training. I especially applaud you and the rest of your men for the care, concern and professionalism demonstrated toward the cadets. I’m certain our young men and women who are preparing to serve in defense of their nation are now more confident and motivated to serve and defend the values we so cherish.
All the best to you and your organization in the future. Thank You!”

“I want to thank you for your instruction in pistol marksmanship using the Colt .45 Automatic (1911 model). In your first 3 hour course I learned more than in 7 years of active duty with the U.S. Army Special Forces (Green Berets). I improved on drawing technique, target acquisition and accuracy.
Both my son and I enjoyed your method of instruction-a very low keyed technique, with instant on the spot correction. Classroom demonstration and practice followed by range live firing totally exceeded my expectation.
We will continue to study under your professional instruction. I recommend the American Defense Enterprises and you as instructor to anyone interested in learning or improving in pistol use.
Again, Thank You.”
“As a former Weapon Specialist with the U. S. Army Special Forces (Green Beret), I considered myself to be very proficient is the use of small arms. In 2005 I met Mr. Bill Beasley and enrolled into his American Defense Enterprises’ Combat Handgun and Shotgun Courses. With Bill’s mentoring and training, my skills improved dramatically.
My accuracy is ‘dead on’ and my reaction time is measured in the .10ths of seconds. These new skills have benefited me both in my personal and professional life. I have found no other firearms instructors who could compare with the professionalism of Bill Beasley and his staff.
I have and will continue to recommend American Defense Enterprises professional firearms training to all my associates and clients.”

Five Gates Society
“As CEO and senior Rabbi of Five Gates Society, I am deeply concerned for the safety and security of our staff, members, their families, and event participants. That was why, after in-depth research, I contacted Bill Beasley, president of American Defense Enterprises, Inc. Bill created a training program specific to the needs of the organization's security team. The training was not classroom lectures or shooting from a static position, but rather the judgment and skills for necessary to deal with real life situations, from basic marksmanship to urban combat training. ADE's trainers are not only skilled professionals, but individuals who care deeply for their trainees. I highly recommend Bill Beasley and ADE.”
