HANDGUN & CARBINE FIREARMS TRAINING

Our handgun and carbine training programs are customized to meet client needs and range from one to three days on average. These intense firearms programs are designed for patrol / tactical deployment and others are designed for plain clothes / undercover and off-duty deployment, or a combination of both. Our MCOLES approved training programs (Michigan based courses) are available to sworn law enforcement officers, military personnel, and private sector security. We offer firearms training programs for the responsible citizen as well. Training days are fast paced and begin on a flat range and progress to non-static live fire training for shooters who are proficient in the safe handling of firearms while moving. Our training programs are high intensity and demand proficiency with fundamentals to increase speed, accuracy, and confidence with your weapons systems. 

Many of our programs integrate multiple skillsets to include situational awareness, developing a combat mindset, combat medicine and more while working in various lighting conditions. We specialize in pistol Red Dot Training with the ability to provide sound recommendations and transition training for your agency. Canine handler specific courses and instructor development courses are also available. 

Students are expected to arrive at the training site with a pre-zeroed weapon, time for confirming zero's will be limited. Red-dot optics are highly recommended. Blackhawk SERPA holsters and similar trigger finger actuated holsters are strongly discouraged
