This course represents a new paradigm in terms of tactical shooting skill development with the handgun. Taught by true world-ranked shooters who are professional trainers with real world experience, we teach you the principles of mindset, tactical shooting and marksmanship at the speed of the modern gunfight. If you truly want to grow in skill and knowledge rapidly, this course is for you!

SPECIAL NOTE:       Our techniques and training methodology have been proven over and over again in gunfights, training programs and individual performances for many years now with superior results. Our after action reports by students involved in deadly force encounters state that the deadly force shooting they had to perform was just like they did in class. It is not uncommon for our students to report that in actual encounters they were the only ones who made the hits even when multiple shooters/officers were involved.
