One Four Four Training
Faith, Service, and Safety – Professional Firearm Training Rooted in Christian Values

About One Four Four Training
Founded by Shay and Barbie Caldwell, One Four Four Training is built on 35 years of marriage and a lifetime dedicated to service, protection, and ministry. Our name draws inspiration from Psalm 144:1: ‘Praise be to the Lord my Rock, who trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle.’ We believe that the ability to protect oneself and one’s family is a God-given responsibility that requires both a prepared hand and a steady heart. Our unique, family-centered perspective combines professional discipline with Christian values to create a training environment that is both rigorous and deeply encouraging.
Led by Shay Caldwell, a United States Army Veteran and Pastor, One Four Four Training delivers high-quality instruction in firearm proficiency and personal safety. Whether you are picking up a handgun for the first time or are a seasoned shooter looking to maintain your credentials, our mission is to provide expert guidance in an atmosphere rooted in faith. We are committed to fostering a disciplined, professional training environment where every student feels supported, respected, and empowered to achieve their personal safety goals.
