About Bandaids and Bullets

---

 PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE. PERSONALIZED SERVICE.

Bandaids & Bullets is a veteran-owned firearms business based in Surprise, Arizona, specializing in firearms sales, suppressors, NFA services, and personalized firearms instruction.

Founded on the belief that quality equipment, practical training, and knowledgeable guidance should be accessible to everyone, we take pride in providing a level of service that goes beyond simply completing a transaction.

Whether you're purchasing your first firearm, exploring suppressor options, or looking to improve your skills, our focus is on understanding your needs and helping you make informed, confident decisions.

My name is Ryan Bass, founder and Training Director of Bandaids & Bullets.

With more than ten years of service in the United States Air Force, my professional background includes military leadership, firearms instruction, tactical medicine, and emergency response training.

As a certified NRA firearms instructor, Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) instructor, and instructor through the American Red Cross and Health & Safety Institute (HSI), I've spent years developing and teaching skills that emphasize safety, responsibility, and preparedness.

My experience also includes graduate education in business and organizational leadership, which influences how I approach both instruction and customer service.

I founded Bandaids & Bullets to bring that combination of practical experience, professional instruction, and straightforward service to the civilian market.

I've always believed that valuable skills shouldn't be limited to military personnel, first responders, or other professionals.

The principles behind effective firearms handling, emergency preparedness, and responding under pressure are just as valuable to everyday people.

That belief continues to shape our approach to training.

Rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all curriculum, we offer private firearms instruction tailored to each student's experience, comfort level, and individual goals. Whether you're handling a firearm for the first time or refining established skills, our priority is providing meaningful instruction in a safe, professional environment.

While training remains an important part of our foundation, Bandaids & Bullets offers much more.

We provide firearms and accessories, suppressor sales and transfers, FFL transfer services, and electronic fingerprinting, along with knowledgeable assistance throughout the purchasing process.

We understand that purchasing a firearm or suppressor can involve important decisions, unfamiliar terminology, and questions about applicable requirements. Our goal is to make those experiences straightforward by providing honest recommendations, clear communication, and personalized assistance.

We're not interested in pushing customers toward products or services they don't need. We're interested in helping them find the right solution.

Integrity. Professionalism. Preparedness.

These aren't just words we put on a website. They're the principles we work to uphold in every customer interaction, training session, and transaction.

As a locally owned business, we value the relationships we build with our customers and the trust they place in us.

Whether you're visiting Bandaids & Bullets for the first time or returning for another purchase or training session, you can expect the same commitment to knowledgeable service, practical guidance, and professionalism.
