Carry For Life - Fundamentals of the AR-15

Today, the Modern Sporting Rifle, built around the AR platform, is the most common in the USA. Yet despite this widespread popularity, many Americans don’t understand the importance of properly setting up and using ARs in self-defensive situations.

• Administrative actions - clearing, loading, and unloading
• Stance, grip, and body positioning
• Correct sighting and zeroing
• How to load and reload correctly
• Proper trigger press
• Clearing malfunctions
• Where to make hits on a threat
• Communication with partners and threats

• REFUNDS 7 DAYS BEFORE CLASS: You may request an automatic refund up until seven (7) days before class.

Instead of a refund, you may call and request that we transfer your ticket to an alternative date at no additional charge.

• NO REFUNDS FOR MISSED CLASS: Tickets cannot be refunded after the seven-day refund window has passed because the instructor is paid even if you do not attend.
