BACKGROUND
The idea for California Online CCW was birthed by two instructors who had been teaching courses and working at an indoor shooting range for several years. A constant issue was scheduling for students and working their schedules around in-person training sessions.
We launched our Online CCW platform at the beginning of the COVID pandemic, California Online CCW launched as an online renewal option for The Firing Line, Clovis Indoor Shooting range, in Fresno County.
Since that time, we have separated and formed our own business entity and grown throughout the State of California, gathering talented affiliates such as 5150 HEAT, LLC to offer the same courses to their county residents.
Officer Ken 'KC' Clements, Brea Police DeparTment - Retired
5150 HEAT, LLC – Firearms Training Academy & LCDR, Ken 'KC' Clements, Ph.D
5150 HEAT – Firearms Training Academy: So, what’s with the name Ken? Okay, I’ll tell you. Once upon a time in the 1970’s, 1980’s & 1990’s I arrested or “Held” numerous people under the influence of or “tripping out” on psychedelic & hallucinogenic drugs Each of them were in a type of mental health crisis.
Having no viable options I was forced to use a little-known law: H.S. 5150 (No, not the 1986 Album '5150' by Van Halen). The 5150 law is a “legal hold” that allows the police keep someone in a hospital for up to 72 hours for psychiatric observation.
Okay, we’ve got ((( 5150 ))), where does the term ((( HEAT ))) come from?
I have alway been an active GANG OFFICER for my entire law enforcement career. “HEAT” is gang slang for GUN.
It was important to have a name for my new firearms school and I didn’t want to use my real name because it would be recognizable and to make matters worse, the last few California Governors have been letting the " a——holes" I helped put into prison – OUT of PRISON!
There it is gang… 5150 HEAT aka: "Crazy Gun." I eventually turned the enterprize into a Limited Liability Company (LLC).

Meet Ken 'KC' Clements
Instructor: I am a retired Police Officer, serving more than 30-years of honorable & dedicated service to the citizens of California. My experience & education extends to virtually every aspect of the law enforcement profession.
In addition, to my patrol duties I served as a Gang Officer, SWAT, Hostage Negotiator, Fugitive Taskforce Teams, Police Firearms Tactical Instructor & Range Master tasked with mentoring & qualifying department officers. I also served as a Police Academy Instructor & Tactical Officer training thousands of men & women police academy recruits.
Due to a unique set of circumstance, I was a member of the Presidential Security Team, tasked with protecting the lives of Presidents: Nixon, primarilly but also Presidents, Ford, Reagan & Bush, playing a critical role in protecting their families, friends, cabinet members, celebrities, and visiting world leaders.
Throughout my law enforcement career I was directly envolved as a normal course of duty in numerous use of force incidents and courtroom trials.
Nevertheless, once upon a time during late April & early May 1992. I was thrown into eight critical 12-hour, night-time tours of duty: Yes, the South Central LA & Rodney King riots. I became fully involved in total war & blazing infernos on the streets of South Central Los Angeles. These were extraordinary times and circumstances, during a government imposed Martial Law, which means a state or city is placed under the control of the U.S. Military because law enforcement is vastly overwhelmed. Both the
U.S. President and the U.S. Congress have the power impose Martial Law. The riots happened less than 30-miles from where I lived.
Since retirement, as a civilian firearm instructor I have continued training responsible men & women "Responsible Gun Owners" interested in developing their personal safety & family protection, home defense, concealed carry (CCW) techniques, laws and strategies.
Since 1980, I have developed an extensive and varied background in teaching the art & science of firearms safety, situational awareness, conflict avoidance, defensive shooting, CQC (close-quarters combat) tactical concepts through actual hands-on experience in “Street Survival Skills” with “Actual on the Job” Use of Deadly Force knowledge. I take personal satisfaction in sharing my tactical know-how and knowledge with good people in need of helpful tutoring in firearms safety, self-defense & defensive shooting.
