Carbine Fundamentals is a 1-day training course covering a broad range of topics dealing with general rifle or carbine use.
Designed for the student who is new to the AR15, or other modern production carbine, we will start at the beginning with basic carbine manipulations and sight in to establish a good point blank zero. Then, we will work mechanical offset, shooting stance, recoil management, multiple shots, and multiple targets. Time permitting, we will also do an introduction to clearing malfunctions.
It's hard to get enough practice shooting in low light because classes are normally during the day. In the winter months, it gets dark early enough that we can venture outside of the low light house.
In low to no light we will be working on manipulating the gun, malfunctions, positively identifying targets, moving and shooting, and shooting at moving targets.

(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.
Our FAS 2-Day Carbine is geared for the patrol officer or armed citizen wanting to increase proficiency with the use of the semi-auto rifle/carbine. Instruction includes use of cover, multiple targets, rapid fire, long range shooting (out to 200 yards), malfunction clearing and speed reloading, moving and shooting and shooting on moving targets, along with use of the rifle in low light environments.
(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)
Combining the curriculum of Level 2: Defensive Handgun and Level 3: Tactical Handgun classes, along with the Special Interest Seminar Wounded/Downed Defender and a run at the FAS Handgun Master Test into a very worthwhile, week-long training course for the student who can take a full week away from their jobs and families. This class is 5 days, Monday through Friday.
The combat shotgun is one of the easiest weapons to learn to shoot, but also one of the hardest to truly master. In Advanced Defensive Shotgun we will train the student in the following areas of tactical shotgun use: long range shotgunning, moving targets, multiple targets, multiple hits, low light, use of horizontal and vertical cover both strong side and weak side, moving and shooting and man-on-man competitions.
