Who we are

Redbeard Shooting Solutions’ owner and lead instructor is Joe Rhoades. Joe has been involved with firearms and gun culture from an early age. Native to rural Pennsylvania, he was fortunate to attend 4-H shooting sports events thru high school into adulthood, to include attending the NRA rifle instructor class at an early age. In late 1999, Joe received an Associate’s Degree of Occupational Studies in Gunsmithing from the world-renowned Colorado School of Trades. In late 2007, he was hired by The Midsouth Institute of Combat Shooting and became a lead instructor there until 2023. While at Midsouth, Joe had the honor of teaching top tier units from U.S. military, Government, Law Enforcement, and friendly foreign forces, and continues to have a working relationship with them to this day.
