Advanced Concealed Handgun 8MAR25

Welcome to the Winter 2024-2025 Urban Series! This program consists of nine seminars spanning October through March, that will cover everything you need to know about how to use a modern pistol, shotgun, and carbine, how to navigate and your way through rooms, doorways, hallways, and how to understand the weapon’s role in the greater tactical framework of modern crime, home defense, concealed carry, and SHTF (Shit Hit The Fan, natural disaster, civil unrest, etc.).

We’ll start with the basics, going all the way into low light gunfighting, close quarter battle, teamwork and tactics, force on force training with real live adversaries who shoot and stab back, how to calibrate and use red dots on your pistol, how to shoot your pistol with speed and precision, patterning buckshot, how bullets go through walls and cars, and so much more!

Each 10 hour day of training brings you exciting new opportunities for niche topics, specialized equipment such as Simunition non-lethal weapons and ammunition, moving targets, live fire inside our ballistic shoot house, from inside a vehicle, and lots of full speed shooting and moving repetition from the holster to build up your confidence! Meet new friends and mentors along the way as you train together class after class! Don’t have gear? Don’t worry, we supply all weapons, ammunition, holsters, and protective equipment; All you need to do is bring yourself, a good attitude, and a belt.
