This MCOLES approved training program is available to sworn law enforcement officers and military personnel who regularly carry a handgun off duty and/or work in plain clothes or in an undercover capacity.  This is a 1-2 day course and is customizable to meet client needs.  Instruction set will strengthen the ability to carry, accurately deploy and safely re-holster a semi-automatic handgun from/to concealment.  Emphasis is based on safety, equipment selection, concealment techniques and weapon presentation from different types of clothing and holsters. Teaching points include situational awareness, developing a combat mindset, effective decision making, weapon manipulation, improving shooting accuracy and speed, injured shooter considerations, efficient movement and developing safe/effective combat handgun deployment techniques while wearing plain clothes.  Plain clothes response to active killer situations and identifying yourself as a police officer will be covered as well.

All students must be confident in the safe handling of firearms and basic handgun techniques as this is a high pace program.  Participants will conduct live fire drills in varying lighting conditions from concealment, as well as reality-based scenario training that is physically and mentally challenging.
