GUNSET PISTOL: STANDARDS
The Ohio CHL Class is a great primer for those who want to carry a firearm for personal security. But if you seriously want to be able to defend yourself you will need to perform to a certain standard on an autonomic level. This class will expose students to those standards as they work on drawstoke, recoil control, and increasing speed and accuracy. This class is for students who have completed the OHIO CHL/CCW and want to take their skills to the next level.
($200 - 250 Rounds - 8 Hours)
GUNSET PISTOL: ADAPTATION
GUNSET PISTOL: MOVEMENT
The goal of Gunset Pistol: Adaptation is to expose you to and equip you with the skills required to survive the unfolding chaos of a gunfight. Typically as citizen self-defenders, we are operating out of an ambush scenario, so we must be able to adapt to the circumstances we find ourselves in, so that we can prevail. We will be shooting from compromised or unfamiliar positions, performing one handed and weak handed manipulations, working recovery tactics and techniques, and challenging you to adapt under stress. This is a challenging course, but one of the most important. ($200 - 400 Rounds - 8 Hours)
Anyone who studies gunfights knows that they rarely happen while everyone is standing still. However, that is still how most people practice. In Gunset Pistol: Movement, we will examine when you should move, why you should move, and how fast you should move. Students will work on proper movement techniques and tactics to put themselves in a position to win the fight. This challenging class can be scaled to any age or fitness level. Students will work on specific skills like explosive lateral movement, moving to and utilizing cover, and moving while shooting.
($200 - 400 Rounds - 8 Hours)
GUNSET PISTOL: RETENTION
Most civilian armed self defense encounters have a few things in common. They typically begin and end quickly, they are usually very violent, and they usually happen at close range, making retaining your pistol one of the most important skills you should have as a armed citizen. This class will focus on those close quarters gunfight techniques, and will give student an opportunity to work through some of these difficult scenarios.
($200 - 8 Hours - 200 Rounds)
REAL WORLD TRAUMA
In Real World Trauma, we drive home the understanding that EVERYONE can develop these skills to positively impact the outcome of traumatic injury. We bridge the gap from the teachings of the EMS and “tactical” worlds to something more applicable to the everyday citizen. If you drive a car, enjoy the occasional outdoor adventure, do yard work, or simply leave your home on a regular basis, the teachings of this course will benefit you. ($200 - 8 Hours)
TACTICAL RIFLE: FUNDAMENTALS
If the AR-15, AK-47, or similar carbine systems are a part of your home defense plan, then Tactical Rifle Fundamentals has been created and tailored with you in mind. This class will cover zeroing your rifle, understanding of Minute of Angle, efficient weapon manipulations, reloads, malfunction clearing, field positions, use of cover, and much more. Students will spend the day working with instructors to refine their techniques and build familiarity with the platform. Students need a reliable carbine, a sling, optic or iron sights, multiple magazines, and some way to hold magazines on their person (belt mounted or chest mounted mag pouches).
($200 - 8 Hours - 250 Rounds)
TACTICAL RIFLE: MOVEMENT
Tactical Rifle: Movement is our next milestone in your journey to become a modern American Rifleman who honors the critical role of civilian use of long arms to defend Home, Community, and Liberty. We will build upon the skills introduced in Tactical Rifle Fundamentals by learning techniques and drills for a greater emphasis on gear placement and utilization, movement with, and dynamic transition into field positions, shooting from unconventional field positions, intro to target identification and ranging, presentation from multiple CQB ready positions, Efficient Movement at CQB distances, and much more.
