01
Safety Above All
Safe, responsible firearm handling is non-negotiable. Everything we teach is rooted in the principle that every firearm owner has a duty to themselves, their family, and their community.
Our Story
From the Fieldto the Classroom.
New England Hunters & Gatherers was born out of a simple belief: that everyone who owns a firearm deserves access to world-class safety education — delivered by instructors who actually live the outdoor life they teach.
Our founders grew up in the Australian bush. They learned to hunt from parents and grandparents, to respect the land, and to handle firearms with the reverence they deserve. When they saw a gap in quality, accessible firearms education in the region, they decided to fill it.
Today, the New England Firearms Safety Course has helped hundreds of students — from first-time owners to experienced hunters seeking formal certification — become safer, more confident, and more responsible.
