Course Highlights:
During this fast-paced, immersive training, you’ll master advanced tactical skills, including:
Strong-hand and support-hand only shooting, reloads, and malfunction clearance
Precision fundamentals — grip, stance, sight picture, and trigger control at an elite level.
Shooting on the move — engaging multiple targets while advancing, retreating, and moving between positions of cover
Rapid response to threats from any direction — including left, right, and rear
Close-contact engagements inside 3 feet
Alternate shooting positions for tactical advantage
Faster, cleaner draw and presentation under pressure
This is performance-driven training with a focus on movement, speed, cover, and total weapon awareness — so you walk away with the confidence to operate at the highest level when it matters most.
Required Gear:
Safe holster: Must fit your pistol, mounted on a sturdy belt. IWB or OWB permitted. No soft nylon or neoprene. Leather must be rigid and in excellent condition. Holster must fully cover the trigger guard. Bag, belly band, or other alternative carry methods are not allowed.
Pistol: Bring a reliable, quality handgun (striker-fired, DA/SA, or 2011 style recommended). Double-stack magazines preferred. If running an optic, ensure it’s zeroed, with fresh batteries and spares.
Attire: You will be outdoors for the day. If it rains or snows, we will remain under a covered section of the range, but you should have appropriate outdoor attire. Athletic footwear with an aggressive tread recommended. You should bring snacks and hydration as well.
Ammunition: 300 rounds factory-loaded. 9mm available on-site at $15/box (50 rounds). Other calibers by arrangement.
🔥 Spots are extremely limited for this course to ensure a high instructor-to-student ratio. If you meet the qualifications, secure your seat now — and bring your A-game.
