Several years ago I held a federal position that required me to purchase explosives, firearms, and ammunition for the staff. While at a staff conference, I was given the opportunity to shoot my first firearm. That firearm was a Ruger Mark II .22 caliber pistol. After shooting the Mark II I was hooked! I enjoyed the feeling of empowerment I received and wanted to learn and shoot more. Little did my co-workers know at the time, but they started a fire that would develop into one of the few female-owned firearms training companies in the state of North Dakota.
In 2013 Prairie Patriot was founded. After instructing student number 1,000 in the summer of 2017 we realized it was time to create our own facility. Over the years we listened to our students about their wants and needs for equipment and education. Our goal is to be the community resource for not only Bismarck/Mandan but the entire great state of North Dakota.
For family, self and, country. Be safe!
