Our Story
Achilles of Zion was established by IDF combat veterans in the aftermath of the October 7 attacks, with a clear mission: to ensure that Jewish individuals and communities are never left vulnerable again. Through professional firearms training and education, we empower our people with the knowledge, confidence, and preparedness needed to safeguard themselves and those around them.
Get to Know Us
Achilles of Zion was founded by IDF combat veterans who carry forward the discipline, courage, and responsibility forged on the battlefield. We know firsthand what it means to face real threats and we bring that knowledge and experience home to serve our community.
Our mission is simple: to train and empower the Jewish community. Through tactical training, CCW (concealed carry) courses, and community defense programs, we give our people the tools, mindset, and confidence to protect themselves, their families, and their synagogues.
This is not just about firearms. It’s about awareness, preparation, and resilience. We teach our students to think, move, and act with clarity under pressure to stand ready when it matters most.
At Achilles of Zion, we don’t just train individuals we build guardians. Because Jewish life must always be defended, and we take pride in making sure our community is strong, safe, and prepared.
