We are H2K Defense.

Veteran & family owned & operated. H2K stands as the first firearms training company with a “Path To Black” system that integrates a structured, belt-based curriculum, drawing inspiration from the traditional martial arts ranking system, all within an affordable membership model. We are committed to a T.Q.P. Total Quality Process. No longer will you wander through a random class, unsure of your progress or areas for improvement. Instead, we offer a system rooted in measurable standards, where each belt represents a clear step in your development as a shooter.

We are NOT reinventing the wheel. We already have well established, battle tested techniques, tactics, & standards thanks to those who have sacrificed before us. We are however, improving how the rubber meets the road.

By aligning your firearms training journey with a tangible belt ranking system—starting from white and progressing through yellow, orange, green, blue, purple, brown, and eventually black—you’ll be able to see exactly where you stand and what’s required to elevate your skills. Our “Path to Black” system allows us to quantify your strengths and weaknesses, providing a roadmap for your growth. We track & record your progress with precision, ensuring that each milestone is celebrated and understood. The result? A faster, more targeted learning experience that not only sharpens your abilities but gives you the confidence & motivation to advance methodically through each belt level.

The H2K system is designed for those who demand more from their training, more from their coaches, & more from their money. We’re teaching mastery, one belt at a time, through a system that defines and refines your skills at every step of your journey.

Based in San Diego, CA we are blessed with a rich community of elite combat veterans. All of H2K instructors are firearm professionals, most of which have served in Special Operation Combat Units. So whether you are a civilian or a top duty professional, we have the experience to deliver the training you need.
