Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a marksmanship class?
No. This is combat pistol training for survival, moving, thinking, and shooting under pressure.
Can I use my carry gun and holster?
Yes. In fact, we recommend training with the same setup you use every day.
What if I fall behind during movement drills?
You will be removed if you compromise safety. This is not a classroom, it’s a performance-based course.
Why do I need to move at all?
Because standing still gets you shot. You’ll learn to move off the line, create angles, and survive.
