About

Hi my name is Bob DeGaetano and I am the owner of GunSafe Firearms Training. I served 25 years with the Atlantic City Police Department and retired at the rank of captain.  I was a firearms instructor for 22 years and eventually took command of the Training Unit, where I was responsible for training our 400+ member department, including the SWAT Team. I also spent nearly half of my career on SWAT, where I served as an operator, FBI certified sniper, trainer, supervisor and ultimately, team commander. 

Upon retirement in 2017,  I started GunSafe to continue my passion for firearms training.  I have maintained my instructor certifications and am currently a Police Training Commission (PTC) certified Range Master and Firearms Instructor in handgun, rifle, shotgun and subgun. I am also an NRA instructor and Retired Police Officer (RPO) instructor.

I have been an active firearms instructor for over 27 years and continue to teach civilians and law enforcement through private lessons.  

GunSafe’s mission is to provide quality firearms instruction to all levels of shooters, first timers to experienced, in a safe and fun learning environment.  Schedule a one-on-one session or bring a friend or family member.  You will most certainly leave with a smile on your face and a solid foundation of gun safety.
