The WHAT: Our entry level Pistol course For those who carry a pistol for self-defense, this course is essential. In one day, we will cover marksmanship fundamentals and manipulating your pistol properly. Students will also learn how to effective deploy their pistol from the holster and engage targets at different distances, positions, and locations. Students will also get to learn how to utilize cover and concealment. The beauty of this class is anyone of any skillset can attend, from the beginner to the experienced. Everyone will level up in this class.

The WHY: More Americans are carrying sidearms for self-defense than ever before. We feel it is every self-defender’s responsibility to train and push themselves to understand the weapons and tools they carry. Learning how to deploy your handgun effectively and safely in a lethal-force situation should be a priority to you if you plan on carrying a one. This class also focuses on the development of the combat mindset, matching one’s “software” with their hardware.
