Description

Course Focus: Realistic Close-Quarters Battle (CQB) and Live-Fire Structure Clearing
 
This intensive 8-hour specialized course is the pinnacle of all defensive training, providing students with the rare opportunity to utilize live ammunition while clearing a designated shoot house structure. Integrating all previous Handgun and Tactical skills—movement, angles, light, decision-making, and precision—this course offers the most realistic and demanding training available for defending an interior space.
 
What You Will Master:
 
  • Live-Fire Room Clearing & Structure Navigation: Execute single-person and team-based entry techniques using live ammunition, engaging threats in close proximity within the structure.
 
  • Threat Identification & Target Discrimination: Master the critical skill of identifying and confirming targets rapidly and accurately before engaging them inside confined spaces.
 
  • Solo & Team-Based Entry Techniques: Refine techniques for entering doorways ("the fatal funnel"), managing angles, and moving through the structure effectively alone and with a partner.
 
  • Engaging Moving & Reactive Targets: Practice engaging targets that move or react to your presence, simulating real-world threat dynamics.
 
  • Decision-Making Under Stress in Close Quarters: Test your ability to prioritize threats, manage muzzle direction, and apply immediate action drills safely under extreme tactical pressure.
