💥 Why Most Firearms Training in Florida Fails You — And What Valortec Is Doing About It
“You don’t rise to the occasion. You fall to your training.”
That’s not a slogan — it’s a brutal truth. And it’s the reason Valortec Training exists.
When you’re in a real fight — one that’s fast, violent, and full of uncertainty — what you think you know doesn’t matter.
What matters is what your body and mind can execute under pressure.
That’s where most firearms training in Florida falls dangerously short.
🚫 The Problem With Typical Firearms Training in Florida
Florida is flooded with CCW courses, static range classes, and basic firearms instruction that gets people licensed — but not prepared.
If you’ve ever taken a class that:
-
Kept you shooting from one lane all day
-
Never introduced movement or decision-making
-
Never discussed real-world use of force in Florida or Puerto Rico
-
Let you qualify without stress or accountability
Then you’ve been sold confidence without capability.
This type of training may check a box on paper, but it leaves you exposed in a real confrontation.
🔥 Enter Herfel Torres: Survivor, Instructor, Relentless Reformer
Herfel Torres, co-founder and COO of Valortec, isn’t just another tactical trainer. He’s lived what others only simulate.
In 1991, while working in Puerto Rico, Herfel was ambushed.
Multiple rounds. One struck him. No backup. No warning.
Bleeding from his left side, he drove himself 28 minutes to the hospital through a hail of bullets.
No help. No rescue. Just training, instinct, and grit.
That wasn’t the day his career began.
That was the day his mission began:
To build training that makes you survive — not just qualify.

👊 Why Valortec Rejects Complacency in Firearms Instruction
Most of the industry is asleep at the wheel.
They give students a paper certificate and call them “qualified.”
Valortec demands more — because the stakes are higher.
We give you feedback that makes you uncomfortable,
drills that push your limits,
and training that sticks when everything else falls apart.
We don’t apologize for expecting more from our students — or ourselves.
“If I had trained like most people do today, I wouldn’t be here to write this,”
— Herfel Torres
