Advanced Handgun Skills – 3 Days

3 Days

Abstract:

This course is  an abbreviated version of our world famous 5 day Advanced Handgun Skills Program.  There is a skills test at the end of this course to gauge your progress.

Note:

This course represents a significant jump in skill from Practical Handgun Skills, Defensive Handgun etc.  Shooting drills and complexity of exercises will reflect this.

Ammunition:          1,000 – 1,500 Rounds

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.

Target Audience:    

Armed professionals and civilians seeking a much higher level of tactical and technical performance and capability with the handgun.

Description:

This course teaches tactical shooting skills at the speed of the gunfight. High performance tactical shooting skills are perishable and you can take this course many times and continue to grow in your skills and knowledge. Many of our students do just that!

Our training methodology and techniques are being used worldwide by law enforcement agencies across the US and worldwide by US Government types, military special ops (Navy Seals, US Army Special Forces etc.) and civilian personnel going into harm’s way overseas or elsewhere.
