Description

This is a 2 day intermediate to advanced level combat handgun course that requires active participation. This handgun and trauma designed course is designed for the civilian who is the "immediate responder" and happens to be "caught up" in a violent encounter that may directly or indirectly involve you.  Should you make the lawful and justifiable decision to get involved to save lives, are you ready?  Do you possess the correct mindset with the will to survive?  Do you possess the concealed handgun skills to rapidly deploy your weapon and get on target quickly and accurately?  If you or your team/ family is shot or otherwise have a traumatic injury, can you stop the bleed to preserve their life before, during, and after a gun fight?  If not, you will when you leave this course.
 
The two days of training includes advancing and honing all your handgun skills, conducting movement drills, performing in scenarios, force on force drills, and trauma skills.  This class is not for beginners.  This class is for those who have made the conscious decision to not be a victim and want to help save lives.

If there is a date that doesnt work for you or your group, call the office to arrange and schedule your own custom training dates offline from the internet.  Office number is 303-797-6789
