Tactical Pistol

Building on basic pistol foundation concepts, introducing students to more real world manipulations and considerations. In this course, students will be trained to perform in less-than-ideal shooting positions against less-than-ideal threats, fully utilizing the 3D nature of training. This class focuses almost exclusively on movement and compromised points of aim, as opposed to the more static, fundamentals-focused shooting seen in basic pistol training.

This course is moderately physically demanding and the tempo is higher than some students may have experienced before; applying as much stress as possible to hone skills on the gun under closer-to-real-world circumstances. Marksmanship requirements under as realistic as possible conditions is paramount.

Course Length:

Classes are 2 days long

Class construction is flexible and may be able to be created to the benefit of clients

Private lessons are available

Cost: $215
