meet THe INSTRUCTORS

Vernon Green

I’ve been with The Village Police Department as a patrol officer for eleven years, an operator for the Oklahoma County Tactical Unit for nine years and am a CLEET-certified firearms instructor.

Over the years, I’ve had the chance to attend numerous firearms and tactics-related classes, including training through FBI-LEEDA, and have trained under and with some of the best in the field. Outside of work, I do some USPSA competitive shooting along with training Jiu-jitsu at The Forge in Edmond.

I started GDS because I saw a need for affordable, high-quality training for Oklahoma law enforcement. This isn’t about making money; it’s about helping officers build the skills they need to handle the serious threats they face.

My curriculum draws on my experience in real-world scenarios and the modern policing environment. I am not here to sell you on some secret technique that will turn you into John Wick—that doesn’t exist. My focus is on building solid fundamentals so they become second nature, letting you focus on tactics in real world scenarios.

I look forward to training together. Take a look at the classes I offer and if you have questions, shoot me an email or reach out through social media.
