SUMMARY:Special Purpose Rifle School 6NOV25 to 9NOV25
DESCRIPTION:Special Purpose Rifle School is an intense 4 day immersion training experience that spans a multitude of disciplines\, each topic designed to help build the student into a capable\, confident\, and competent warrior who can succeed in armed conflict on the modern battlefield. For some students\, this will be a crash course from the beginning to advanced technical rifle shooting and modern fighting doctrine. For others\, this will be the culminating event for students who have trained for months on combat riflecraft\, precision riflecraft\, and small unit tactics\, who are looking to push themselves hard and test their skills and equipment.  \nMy name is Brian Wang. I have taught firearm safety\, self defense\, and the combat use of firearms for 12 years professionally.  I have been a professional teacher since 2006. I have trained kung fu since 2007. I completed sniper school in 2010. I have been licensed to carry a concealed weapon since 2013. I have traveled the country to learn from the best mentors and have completed the best instructor certification programs available\, to bring efficient and effective training to you. I have been to war and watched friends die. I have survived missiles\, helicopters\, artillery\, bombs\, illness\, and stubborn bureaucracy to bring you the best training experiences possible. I am a veteran of the Ukraine war. I have trained soldiers and snipers and developed logistics and training programs for entire military brigades. I have been the victim of burglary\, arson\, unlawful arrest\, and domestic violence. I have eaten bologna sandwiches in jail\, and won in court. I am a father and a husband and a small business owner. I have taught over 10\,000 students in Florida\, Texas\, Arizona\, Arkansas\, Nevada\, Ukraine\, and California. I own and operate at 300 acre dedicated tactical training facility only 1 hour from the bay area. It is my honor to be your instructor.  \nWe at Monarch Defense believe that there is no such thing as “advanced training”\, but rather\, there is only mastery of the basics. Therefore\, you can view this training event as an intense review and test to see whether or not you have indeed mastered the basics. From the start of development of our Special Purpose Rifle School back in the spring of 2021\, it was developed as training at the level of the instructors\, to which a select few high competency students were invited. It is our research and development proving ground\, for new curriculum\, training methodologies\, and technologies. It is where we push ourselves in the cold\, the wet\, the sore and sleepless nights\, and where we test our gear to the point of failure.  \nStudents who are currently enrolled in the Combat Rifle School are eligible to attend the entirety\, or just select parts of Special Purpose Rifle School. Students joining us from outside\, who are not subscription customers have the option to join the full Combat Rifle School for unlimited access to all of our classes\, equipment\, and training facility for six months for $995\, or these 4 days of training only at $795. Either way\, we provide you the highest quality of private dedicated tactical training facility\, loaner weapons\, scopes\, training grenades\, day and night optics\, targets\, ammunition\, equipment\, and resources to ensure you have a safe\, fun\, challenging\, and life changing learning experience.   \nWelcome\, warriors. You are home here amongst friends.  \nPrerequisite: \nNone \n\n\n\nLearn:  \nWeapon safetyWeapon manipulations\, malfunction procedures\, lubrication\, maintenance \nShooting fundamentals\, zeroing proceduresConventional and field shooting positionsHow to use various optics for extended range observation and engagementHow to shoot fast\, far\, and accurately \nTeamwork\, communication\, field movement\, small unit tactics.Close quarter battle techniquesNight fighting techniquesTheory and employment of automatic rifles\, hand grenades\, sniper rifles\, night vision\, thermal scopes\, drones \nMap reading\, compass\, and GPS employment\, land navigationObservation\, stealth\, camouflage\, fieldcraft\, reconnaissance and intelligence gatheringMission planning\, leadership\, teamwork\, character developmentFriendship\, camaraderie \nYou won’t sleep much\, but when you do\, you’ll sleep like a baby. You won’t be warm\, but you will gain practical application and appreciation for your equipment\, figuring out what works and what needs to be changed. Some of you will come out of this experience overwhelmed. Others will come out of this experience confident and steady as a warrior. All will be exhausted mentally\, physically\, and emotionally. All will have accomplished something challenging and difficult\, and will have grown as a result.  \nCancellations: \nIf you do not plan to attend\, notify us immediately so that we can give your spot in class to another student. If you register for a class then no-show\, you will be charged a $50 Pain In the Ass fee. We do not issue refunds. Questions?

SUMMARY:Combat Rifle Optics 8NOV25
DESCRIPTION:Combat Rifle Optics is a technical training which will provide the student a tremendous degree of detail and knowledge regarding the types of scopes common to the modern battlefield. These include red dots\, magnifiers\, low power variable optics\, Trijicon Advanced Combat Optical Gunsite (ACOG)\, conventional rifle scopes\, and other products which are designed to help a shooter aim. Your goal is to leverage the capabilities of modern optical aiming devices to increase your precision from 4 MOA to 2 MOA\, and your effective engagement range on man sized targets from 400m to 800m\, while maintaining speed and close range defensive engagement capability.  \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School. We schedule small group instruction based upon the your request. This program consists of the following 50 unique five hour modules\, plus additional practical and field exercises.
