This class is designed for the intermediate to advanced student and will focus on concealed carry and defensive handgunning techniques.

We live in a three-dimensional world. Unfortunately, most firearms training is not designed for that. Real life violence does not always present itself with a textbook shot that is most often practiced on a static range.

In this FAS seminar we’ll go beyond ‘Center Mass’ to teach you more about proper shot placement, as well as shot angles. Anatomical considerations and the mechanism of bullet damage will also be discussed. You’ll be put into shooting drill scenarios that will help you understand where your bullets need to hit to be effective.

From conversational distances out to the practical limits of an attack, you’ll learn where to place your rounds to get your adversary to stop as quickly as possible.

(Starting Point Class) - Defensive Handgun is the required pre-req for Level 3 Tac Handgun, Level 3 Active Shooter, and the Handgun Special Interest Seminars. (See Full List)

(Starting Point Class) - Intro to Handguns is the start to our handgun curriculum and is the required pre-req for Handgun Fundamentals and Concealed Carry 101. These other Level 1 classes require students to have their own handgun and are paired with an Intro on the same weekend to allow students the opportunity to create their own 2 day class. Our other entry point into our handgun curriculum is Defensive Handgun which is required for all of our higher level handgun classes. (See Full List)

Concealed Carry 101 was born out of the need to quickly and efficiently get students "up and running" with self-defense and concealed carry handgun skills. We frequently pair this class on a weekend with our Level 1: Intro to Handguns class, which is the mandatory pre-requisite for this class, to give students an opportunity to train for an entire weekend. 

This class is designed to build on the defensive handgunning skills learned during Level 3: Tactical Handgun and Concealed Carry 201 with added movement, awareness, and decision making.

Precision Rifle Fundamentals is designed to provide the Student with a systematic approach to Precision Rifle Marksmanship, Manipulations, and Employment.  Our curriculum is progressive in format, with each component skill laying the foundation for the next and creating a well-rounded Precision Rifle Shooter. 

Building upon the “Practice with Purpose” curriculum, Train for Mastery is an extended class, designed to teach you how to practice effectively, and train towards a high-level shooting goal. In addition to all topics covered in the 1-day “Practice with Purpose” class, students will also learn about advanced movement and exercises, building their own effective drills from match data, more in-depth analysis of their practice logs, and advanced drill and exercise breakdown techniques. Fast-paced and very intensive, students should come prepared to take lots of notes, and watch their practice routines change drastically and – hopefully – for the better.

This is a collaborative class between Tim Herron and AJ Zito, built entirely around one concept: Showing you how to practice.

Concealed Carry 101 was born out of the need to quickly and efficiently get students "up and running" with self-defense and concealed carry handgun skills. We frequently pair this class on a weekend with our Level 1: Intro to Handguns class, which is the mandatory pre-requisite for this class, to give students an opportunity to train for an entire weekend.
