About GunZee
GunZee was founded on a simple belief: defensive firearms training should reflect real-world encounters. Real defensive situations are fast, complex, and unpredictable, and training tools should prepare shooters for those realities.
GunZee originally launched when founder Mark Buff designed a memory foam holster pad to solve his own concealed carry comfort challenges. After strong support from the firearms community, GunZee expanded into carry accessories and preparedness gear.
Today, GunZee has evolved into a specialized defensive training company focused on producing highly realistic shooting targets and educational training resources.
GunZee has partnered with Tier One Eagle Tactics to provide professional firearms and defensive training services.
Tier One Eagle Tactics is owned and operated by Jimmy Hall, a U.S. Army veteran with 28 years of service, including 17 years with 1st SFOD-D.
Jimmy served as a Shooting Instructor for the Operator Training Course and completed multiple combat deployments supporting direct action, special reconnaissance, foreign internal defense, and dignitary protection missions. He held leadership roles as an Assault Team Leader, Sniper/Recon Team Leader, and Canine Team Leader and is a recipient of seven Bronze Stars (two with Valor) and two Purple Hearts.
