The shotgun is one of the most capable home-defense tools available, and one of the least trained. Tactical U offers a two-hour private, slug-only indoor session at Founders Shooting Club in Fort Lauderdale or North Miami. The four-hour private and group courses are held at Homestead Training Center for movement, positions, transitions, and dynamic work. Stephen Cohen brings 32 years of law-enforcement experience to every session.
