DEFENSIVE SHOTGUN
Many myths surround the combat shotgun. This eight hour course will dispel these myths, replacing them with the correct knowledge and skills necessary to use the shotgun for self-defense or law enforcement duty.
In addition to learning the operation of the shotgun and correct shooting techniques, students will "pattern" their shotgun, understand the penetration potential of the various types of shotgun ammunition and practice shooting from behind cover and at multiple targets. Students will see the accuracy potential of the shotgun, along with understanding how shot patterning effects the tactical use of the shotgun in self defense and hostage situations.
Either 12 gauge or 20 gauge shotguns are acceptable. Ammunition requirements: 100 rounds of high brass lead bird shot; 25 rounds non-magnum buckshot; 15 rounds of slugs. Absolutely no steel shot. Students also need to provide ear muffs, wrap-around eye protection, their lunch and beverages, a notebook and a pen.
