Pistol-Training.com - Simon Golob - On Demand Performance Rifle

A one-day course meant to be added at the end of a standard ODP pistol class, ODP Rifle focuses on fast and accurate employment of the modern carbine. Range and student dependant, we will employ the carbine out to 100 yards, focusing on 50 yards and closer. Building on many of the concepts taught in ODP Pistol, ODP Rifle will teach you to use the carbine as fast and accurately as possible while focusing on cold performance. Any modern carbine is welcome, but 5.56’s with 14.5-16″ barrels are most appropriate. Full tactical gear is not needed, but some way to carry spare ammo is desirable. Your back pocket will do if need be. You will need a minimum of 3 magazines and 500 rounds, plus support gear for your optics and rifle. Students are expected to know how to function their weapon and arrive with a zero’d carbine. We will break down all of the fundamentals, but a basic working knowledge of your carbine is required.

Q: If I bring more ammo will I be able to shoot more?

A: Yes! Some drills allow for more flexibility than others but much of the shooting will be at your own pace. Which also means that some people will shoot a little less than others.

Q: Why do you prefer to train with concealed guns instead of open carry holsters?

A: Anyone who is serious about carrying a pistol must be able to shoot effectively from concealment. Training from concealment strongly carries over to open carry, but the opposite is simply not true.

Q: If I can’t meet the prerequisites what will happen?

A: If you are unsafe, you will be unable to continue training. Safety requirements will be clearly laid out at the beginning of the day and you will have the chance to practice them. If you can’t hit a 3×5 card at 5 yards, you don’t yet have the skill needed to take advantage of this training. You are welcome to stay and shoot, but we will not take class time away from the students who do meet the requirements in order to try and get you up to speed. A second attempt to pass the test may be given as appropriate.

Q: Can I bring a 300 whatever instead of a 5.56?

A: If you want to, you are welcome to.

Q: Do I need an optic for either pistol or carbine?

A: No, iron sights are just fine, but there are some real benefits to optics that we will take advantage of in class if you do have them.
