SUMMARY:Basic Defensive Shotgun 3MAY26
DESCRIPTION:In this specialty seminar let’s understand the unique tool that is the shotgun. Shotguns have a long history of defensive usage and they have significant advantages in some ways\, but significant disadvantages in others. Compare and contrast the the performance\, ease of use\, cost\, and complexity of semi automatic shotguns versus pump action shotguns\, 12 gauge versus 20 gauge shotguns\, 00 buckshot vs #1 buckshot\, vs #2\, 3\, and 4 buckshot. Consider the purpose and proper usage of slugs. Learn how various loads will pattern for your particular gun\, barrel length and choke. Gather tips on how to accessorize your weapon\, how to use it in low light conditions\, and how to introduce the idea of a shotgun for home defense to your spouse and family members. \n\n\n\nPrerequisite: \n\n\n\nSelf Defense Theory \n\n\n\nLearn:  \n\n\n\nWhat is a shotgun?What does it do?

SUMMARY:Combat Rifle Theory 4JUL26
DESCRIPTION:Combat riflecraft is a lifelong journey\, a passion\, a dedication to the true modern martial art and science. Everyone has a rifle\, but very few actually know how to use it. In this class\, we introduce the curious beginner to everything that it takes to become a confident and skilled warrior in the modern age. A desire to learn is all it takes to begin. All combat rifle and precision rifle classes at Monarch Defense begin here. This is a free class. \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 training modules\, plus additional practical and field exercises. If you would like to participate in this program\, call Brian at 408-892-5460 or email info@monarchdefense.org to apply.  \n\nCombat Rifle Theory\nBasic Combat Rifle\nShoot Move Communicate\nCombat Rifle Fundamentals\nCombat Rifle Optics\nClose Quarters Combat Rifle\nNight Combat Rifle\nAdvanced Combat Rifle\nPrecision Rifle Theory\nPrecision Rifle Fundamentals\nPrecision Rifle D.O.P.E.\nPrecision Rifle WIND\nTactical Precision Rifle\nSelf Defense Theory\nBasic Defensive Shotgun\nDefensive Handgun Theory\nBasic Defensive Handgun\nDefensive Handgun Fundamentals\nNight Defensive Handgun\nClose Quarters Defensive Handgun\nAdvanced Defensive Handgun\nHigh Intensity Gunfighting Drills\nClose Quarter Battle Theory\nSolo Close Quarter Battle\nTeam Close Quarter Battle \nThe American Rifle\nAmmunition Science \nAmmunition Data Collection\nAmmunition Production\nSpecial Purpose Rifle\nBasic Tactical Fieldcraft\nLong Range Observation\nBasic Stealth and Camouflage\nGhillie Suit and Thermal Camouflage\nKalash Klas\nThermal Weapon Sights\nHand Grenade Theory\nDrone Theory\nRadio Theory\nLand Navigation\nAnti-Materiel Rifle Theory\nAutomatic Rifle Theory\nCombat First Aid\nCare Under Fire\nPrinciples of Patrol\nPrinciples of Reconnaissance\nPrinciples of Attack\nPrinciples of Defense\nPrinciples of Ambush\nPrinciples of Raid\n\nPrerequisite: \nNone \nLearn: \n4 components of your weapon systemThe purpose of combat rifle trainingWhat is a rifleman\, exactly? The different roles of riflemen\, automatic riflemen\, grenadiers\, and marksmen \nIntroduction to the AR15\, America’s favorite rifleIntroduction to the Avtomat Kalashnikova\, the world’s favorite rifleWeapons disassembly and maintenanceHow to buy or build your own rifle \nQuick math for zeroing weaponsThe science of bullet flight and battle zeroBullet wounding effects and barrier penetrationBall\, tracer\, frangible\, blanks\, and when we use the different types of ammo \nChoosing combat rifle scopes and opticsCommon rifles\, cartridges\, calibers\, and bulletsAccessories and support equipment that you will needGoal setting and tips for practiceHow classes are organized\, pricing\, scheduling\, and how to begin your training.  \nYou could watch YouTube videos and figure things out by yourself\, but if you get something wrong\, no one will be there to coach or guide you\, and a simple error could plague your learning and development as a shooter. If you want to go to the public range and entertain yourself at 100 yards with your elbows on a table\, be my guest\, but that sounds boring to me. If you want to go out to public land and have stray bullets wiz past you from random strangers who don’t care about your safety\, be my guest to talk with my friend and student Mike who got shot through both legs. If you want to be forever an “experienced beginner”\, be my guest. Youtube Tactical University is always free\, but your time is valuable. Or\, take the bold first step to beginning your formal education on combat rifle craft from a seasoned professional. \nThis class is designed to provide beginners with a solid introduction to the attitude\, skill\, and knowledge you will need to succeed in the journey towards becoming expert riflemen.  \nMy name is Brian Wang. I have been teaching firearm safety\, self defense\, and the combat use of firearms for 11 years professionally.  I have been a 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 take the best instructor certification programs available. I have been to war and watched friends die. I have survived a guided missile\, helicopter rockets\, artillery bombardment\, aviation bombs\, strafing by infantry fighting vehicle cannon\, and disease on the front line. I trained\, equipped\, and in large part gave birth to the Ukrainian 47th Mechanized Brigade’s snipers and designated marksmen. 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\, and to bring you all of this knowledge for free. \nI have striven to design a thorough hands on learning experience\, with the most detail in the shortest time possible. Expect 50% of your class to be lecture and discussion\, and 50% to be hands on with guns\, shooting\, and moving.  \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?
