Tactical U runs rifle training in Miami and Fort Lauderdale from Phase 1 carbine fundamentals through dynamic rifle and precision scoped work. Stephen Cohen built this curriculum from 30 years of law enforcement firearms instruction. If you own an AR-15 and have not had formal training, this program covers everything from zeroing your optic to running your rifle under stress.
You don’t learn how to handle your rifle correctly by simply shooting it on the range. You learn though tactical shooting drill manipulations, repetitions and working through all of the mechanics of how the rifle operates, and how you operate the rifle.
This five hour one on one course is focused on skill development for the basic skills necessary to safely, effectively and efficiently utilize a precision scoped rifle from 100-500 yards. We gauge the participant in an assessment to see how experienced that you are, and where we need to pick up from.
