Centre Firearms Co

In a city where self-defense classes and shooting ranges often cater to either casual hobbyists or tactical professionals, Centre Firearms Co fills a distinct niche. The training centre specializes in structured programs—from basic pistol handling to advanced marksmanship—without the frills of a membership-based club. Down in SoHo, where loft spaces and boutique studios dominate, its presence is more functional than flashy; this isn’t a place for socializing, but for skill-building.

Tucked into 33 Greene St # 1W, New York, NY 10013, the operation keeps a low profile amid the neighborhood’s art galleries and high-end retailers. Firearms training in Manhattan is a logistical rarity, and while most similar businesses cluster outside the borough, this one remains accessible to those who prefer not to trek to Queens or New Jersey. The focus here is on certification courses, safety drills, and private instruction—practical offerings for a client base that values precision over spectacle.

Questions about scheduling or course prerequisites are best directed to the front desk at (212) 244-4040. First-time visitors should double-check the map for exact directions—the entrance is easy to miss if you’re not watching for the street number.
