After the army, he went back to work overseas as a security contractor in high risk areas before returning stateside to become a law enforcement officer, SWAT sniper, and sniper instructor. He has been profiled by the New York Times, the American Rifleman magazine, and featured on the TV show Trigger Time TV. He’s the lead instructor for the Mississippi Tactical Officers Association (MTOA) sniper school and a full-time detailee to a federal violent crimes task force in a major metro city.

@jasonanixon

Jason Nixon is a federal law enforcement officer and former SWAT sniper/assaulter and sniper team leader. He is a Firearms Instructor, Tactical Instructor, and Vehicle Tactics Instructor. In this capacity he regularly instructs state/local police officers and federal agents in pistols, tactics, precision shooting, and more. He regularly conducts and competes in tactical shooting matches, because he believes in the importance of shooting “cold, on demand, in front of strangers, and with no home field advantage.” He loves many types of shooting but his favorite by far is scoped carbine. At Zero Theory, Jason brings an undeniable passion for teaching and a demonstrated ability to present complex topics in a simple, understandable way.
