Description
Every-Day-Carry Defensive Pistol is an intermediate-level handgun course designed for shooters who already understand the fundamentals of safe firearm handling and basic marksmanship and are ready to advance their defensive skills.
This course builds on foundational shooting abilities and introduces the practical techniques needed to apply those skills in more realistic defensive scenarios. Students will work on improving efficiency, consistency, and decision-making while reinforcing the safety habits that responsible gun ownership demands.
Through structured drills and guided instruction, participants will refine core shooting fundamentals such as grip, sight management, and trigger control while learning to shoot more effectively under increased time pressure. The course also introduces practical defensive skills including drawing from a holster, engaging multiple targets, and improving shot accountability.
Instruction emphasizes practical performance—not speed for its own sake, but efficient, controlled shooting that reflects real-world defensive priorities.
