- Shot Process beginnings (fundamentals of marksmanship)

This rifle (and carbine) course is open to every responsible U.S. citizen; civilian, law enforcement, military alike.

The basics: shows the shooter just what the basics are, begins the long process of mastering them, leaves shooter with drills and methods of continuing practice on their own. Topics that will be covered and discussed are as follows:

- Safety brief (Rules of firearms safety, weapons safety status, range rules/etiquette)

- Philosophy of Use of a rifle/carbine (where they are most applicable, why a rifle? Limitations of a rifle)

- Cycle of Function - How the rifle works as a mechanical tool

- Zero Techniques and Theory

- Selection, setup, and use of associated gear/equipment related to rifle employment

- Loading, clearing, and correcting stoppages/malfunctions

- Carry/Shooting Positions

- The Shot Process – the basic outline of an engagement that all shooters consider when firing a rifle, or any firearm (marksmanship fundamentals and skills)

- Beginnings of movement incorporation into the shot process

- Beginnings of unconventional shooting positions

Rifle 1 is geared towards beginner/novice and intermediate level shooters. For the novice or beginner, this is a foundational course that will set the shooter up for success and provide a base for further growth and development. For the intermediate-level shooter, this course will reinforce the fundamental skills of marksmanship and provide a deeper understanding of these critical aspects of shooting.

This rifle course is open to individuals (civilian and armed professional) who have previously attended a professional training course (Military/LEO/Verifiable private company).

Picks up where Rifle 1 left off. Includes a more in-depth, detail-oriented explanation and application of the shot process. An assessment of student skills will be made with an initial course of fire. There are more layers added to each engagement in Rifle 2, focused primarily on:

- Movement incorporated into the shot process

- Unconventional firing positions

- Use of cover/concealment

- Target transitions

- Scenario-based events

This pistol course is open to every responsible U.S. citizen; civilian, law enforcement, military alike.

- Philosophy of Use of a pistol (where they are most applicable, why a pistol? Limitations of a pistol)

- Principles of Operation (major components of firearm & cycle of function

- Selection, setup, and use of associated gear/equipment related to pistol employment

- Employment – clearing, loading, draw-stroke, the shot process

- Clearing stoppages and malfunctions

Our “Combatant” series of courses utilizes both a rifle/carbine and a pistol. There are three interrelated main points for this course: 1) Employing both rifle and pistol 2) Efficiently and effectively using all gear/equipment related to these two weapon systems and 3) Firing both weapons from unconventional positions, utilizing points of cover.

We will discuss when to use which weapon, how and when to transition from rifle to pistol, managing ammunition for both systems, as well other key data points.

All associated gear and equipment (chest rig, plate carrier, gun belt, holster, helmet, pack, etc.) is discussed, reviewed, and practiced with. The intent of this being to test out your individual setups, identify points to improve upon, and discuss ways and options to create and refine your individual systems.

This course is open to individuals (civilian and armed professional) who have previously attended a professional training course (Military/LEO/Verifiable private company). For intermediate – expert level shooters.

Much like “Combatant 1” however the pace of instruction and training is increased. Students are expected to have a solid understanding and ability to apply the fundamentals of shooting and more. The “bugs” of their gear/equipment should be mostly worked out. This course is very much focused on getting reps in and rounds downrange. Points of instruction will be very refined and specific to individual shooters.

A key distinction between Combatant 2 and Combatant 1 is the incorporation of vehicles. While not a vehicle-specific course, working in and around cars is discussed and practiced. Also, there will be more movement, at a faster pace, and longer engagement ranges intermixed into the training (Potentially out to 200 meters).

Often overlooked, being able to employ a weapon system in dark or near-dark conditions is a crucial skill that must be specifically developed and trained. These courses are specifically built to a clients needs/desires however a base-line of information is covered. This includes:

- Safety Brief

- Gear Discussion

- White-light use (handheld and/or weapon mounted)

- Weapons manipulation in dark conditions

- Movement under dark conditions

- Unconventional positions with a white light/night vision

What is more dangerous than one trained combatant? Multiple combatants, of course. Ultimately, our goal is to create groups of well-trained, disciplined individuals across the country. But as an individual, we are limited in what we can do; as a team however, we can be mutually supportive and far more effective. Therefore, learning how to move and operate as a team is critical. While there is so much that goes into this, we can open the door and show the foundational elements of small unit operations. Topics covered include:

- Principles of patrolling

- Outfitting gear and equipment for a patrol

- Planning for a team movement

- Land Navigation basics

- Team tactics
