Introduction
Greetings,
My name is Roslyn ‘Ros” Mickens. I am a USCCA Certified Firearms Instructor who has over 12 years of experience in teaching in public and private schools. I am, also, a USCCA Certified RSO. I am patient and enjoy seeing my students progress and have fun while learning while practicing the 4 safety principles.
I teach FREE Toddlers classes to teach the little children how to avoid and report guns to parents. This class is for preschoolers and 1st grade students.
My company is Steel Petal Defense. My business is your security with the goal to make sure that you are safe, well-trained and confident in handling firearms.

Governor Hogan Directs Maryland State Police to Suspend ‘Good and Substantial Reason’ Standard for Wear & Carry Permits
Click the link above to read about how Governor Larry Hogan responded to June’s United States Supreme Court ruling which struck down a similar provision in New York. The Governor moved swiftly in making Maryland a “shall issue” state for law abiding citizens to be able to protect themselves against criminals.
Situational Awareness
Our successful Situational Awareness class taught our student how to avoid potentially dangerous situations in their daily lives. We featured drills, videos and a Q&A session. Students left the class feeling empowered with the knowledge.
Preschoolers Stay Safe Class
Donations can be made to our cause to keep the babies safe!
This FREE class will have NO LIVE FIREARMS IN THE CLASS, and is designed to teach Pre K and First Grade students how to avoid guns and to tell a parent or guardian where they saw the firearm.
This is a fun class where parents and children will interact with the instructor so the children while having fun.
‘This is a community service project to help kids stay safe.
Stay tuned as we post upcoming classes for children from Pre K- 3rd Grade for this class.

Being more than a firearms instructor, I am your mentor in your journey. We will explore your specific need for a firearm and the best choices for you. Finding out how to make you more comfortable in handling firearms for self defense and/or sport is something we will explore. -
