This class is suitable for those interested in carrying a handgun for self-defense.

Safely learn efficient draws from both open and concealed carry positions. Updated and flexible methods for reloading and clearing malfunctions are included. Tactics for using cover, movement, and threat recognition will be presented. Students will apply these skills in a problem-solving exercise.

Prerequisite: Prior training is not required, but you must be competent and safe while handling, loading, and shooting your firearm. You will be moving and shooting.

Safe weapons handling is more important than your marksmanship skills.
Attendees exhibiting unsafe weapons handling will be removed from training without refund.

Safety Policy

Conditioning safe shooters is a mission we take very seriously. Safety is important during training to avoid accidents, but safe weapons handling must be conditioned for it to become habitual under stress. Each class or lesson begins with a safety brief to establish expectations and consequences for unsafe behavior. Minor violations are common in the beginning and will be remediated. Major violations can result in termination of training or removal from group classes.
