This class is specifically geared to prepare students for the possibility of defending against an active shooter in an urban environment and will involve shooting exercises designed to test skills necessary for active shooter interdiction, along with force on force training to prepare the armed citizen to be able to respond as effectively as possible if they ever have to face an armed assailant bent on shooting numerous victims.

Classes consist of 10-14 students, and are two days long. Classes are focused on the practical shooting skills that will help you more confidently plan, tackle, and shave time from your performance with a pistol. While this class does contain some advanced fundamentals, the class is dynamic and stage oriented. The class also includes a day of “firing line” type fundamentals training, however we wont burn through ammo like a regular class. Therefore, the round counts are bit lower than what you might have seen at traditional 2-day classes in the past – we will make them count. I am a firm believer that when it comes to proper practice, quality is much more important than quantity, so this class will also cover principles of efficient practice, and how to structure your practices to identify and address your weaknesses. Students should plan on bringing a lunch. 

(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 2-day course picks up where Level 2: Defensive Handgun leaves off and goes more in depth into aspects of concealed carry and home defense.

Intro to Shotgun covers the basics and is designed for the student who is testing out a new shotgun or is beginning their training. This class can be taken with any shotgun including a single shot, double barrel/over under, pump, or semi-auto. If bringing a trap, skeet, or bird hunting gun, please make sure you have a choke that can shoot slugs. This will be covered during the class.

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.

Advanced Defensive Handgun completes our core handgun curriculum and gives students an opportunity to do more scenario based training including force on force with airsoft. Registration in this class requires the successful completion of Level 2 Defensive Handgun and Level 3 Tac Handgun. (See Full List)

Advanced Precision Rifle begins with foundations of manipulations and the progression of increasing shot to shot speeds. This course also exposes shooters to wind reading techniques and shooting from alternate positions. Graduates of this course will be able to hold groups 2 MOA or smaller from positions other than prone and engage targets to 600 yards with a hit rate of 80% or higher.

Do you know how to defend your handgun against a large, aggressive attacker, or what to do if a street thug sticks a gun in your face during an assault and threatens to blow your head off? Once you complete this class, you will know exactly what to do.

An extension of our popular Handgun retention and disarming class, students will get a review of the core handgun retention and disarming techniques. Also covered: long-gun retention and disarming, dynamic non-scripted attacks to drawn and holstered gun, defending against multiple attackers, and low light retention. (Pre-requisite is the Handgun Retention and Disarming seminar AND one re-take). 

This high round count combination pistol and carbine class emphasizes close quarter defensive tactics, carry positions, movement, and culminates with a live fire force on paper scenario in the tac house. Students need to bring plenty of mags pre-loaded and ready to go for a fast paced weekend of shooting.
