SUMMARY:Home Defense Shotgun 14DEC24
DESCRIPTION: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\, zombies\, 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! \nEach 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.  \nPick your package of any 6 classes! Mix and match whatever fits your skill level\, your schedule\, and your interests for an awesome price of just $124 per class. The first twelve students to buy the package receive an additional 22.5% off\, so that’s only $96 per day of training! This is the reward for those who are bold enough to grab the bull by the horns. Hesitate and you’ll miss out! If during the series you get a schedule conflict\, or want to reschedule a date\, simply email Brian at info@monarchdefense.org to take a credit for something else!  \nWant to join more than 6 classes? Buy the package\, and add additional classes in the series for only $56 each! Sounds crazy\, right? We aim to take care of our loyal students. Ready to look at your calendar?   \nDates included in this series:  \nOctober 19th\, 2024 – Principles of Close Quarter BattleNovember 16th\, 2024 – High Intensity Gunfight DrillsNovember 24th\, 2024 – Fundamentals of PistolcraftDecember 14th\, 2024 –  Home Defense ShotgunDecember 15th\, 2024 – Live Fire Solo CQBJanuary 11th\, 2025 – Performance PistolJanuary 26th\, 2025 – Fundamentals of PistolcraftFebruary 8th\, 2025 – Partner Force on Force CQBFebruary 9th\, 2025 – PDW\, PCC\, and AR PistolsMarch 8th\, 2025 – Advanced Concealed Handgun \nIf a private citizen must conduct armed self defense\, it will invariably be within the urban environment\, such as in and around cars\, parking lots\, homes\, offices\, or local businesses. Thus\, all students of self defense gunfighting should learn how to fight and move and problem solve in the urban environment\, right? \nOh\, but in our industry there is a magical aura around ‘Close Quarter Battle’\, you have to whisper the words…This dark magic is only for the elite\, The Special Navy Delta Recon Green Power Rangers… Yet\, once you actually get in front of one of these “Tier 1” instructors\, you realize that their professional experience has absolutely no bearing on the life and reality of normal people. You hear such nonsense as “I don’t teach CQB to civilians”\, “you cannot do CQB by yourself”\, “kneel down when reloading so your buddies can shoot over the top of your head then wait until someone grabs your armor to pull you up”…Does any instructor have a program that teaches regular civilians how to fight\, defend\, and win inside and around cars\, parking lots\, gas stations\, homes\, and businesses? \nWe do.  \nIn this specialty seminar let’s understand the unique tool that is the shotgun. Shotguns have a long history of defensive usage\, but they have significant advantages in some ways\, and 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\nYou must have prior safe weapons handling experience to attend this seminar.  \n\n\n\nTopics:  \n\n\n\nWhat is a shotgun?What does it do? What do we do with it? Buckshot\, birdshot\, and slugPenetration and terminal ballisticsChoke\, barrel length\, bore selectionPump vs SemiSighting systems and methodsEmergency port loadTactical reloadLoading to cruiser readyRight hand and left hand manipulationClearing malfunctionsPatterning buckshotSlug select drillsHands on shooting and moving practiceLow light shooting drills \nLocation: \n\n\n\n\n\nOur facility is in the mountains 1 hour east of San Jose\, 1 hour south from Livermore. Detail directions will be emailed to those who sign up. If you are inexperienced in driving mountain roads\, give yourself 2 hours to make the trip. \nPacking list:  \n\n\n\nSturdy bootsSturdy pantsBeltLong sleeve shirt or jacketGlovesLayer garments so you can adjust for cold\, wet\, or warm weatherHatShotgun (We can provide weapons and equipment free of charge\, contact us for details)200+ rounds of ammunition\, or pay $80 for ammo when you register150 birdshot\, no steel shot25 buckshot25 slugCleaning kit with oil\, rag\, toothbrush\, barrel rodClear eye protectionEar protection 1 gallon of waterSalty snacks and bag lunchFlashlightNotebook and pen \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nCancellations: \nWe do not offer refunds for discretionary cancellations.

Whereas that class lays out the primary theory regarding CQB in general\, this second time around we will focus strictly on the 1 person\, defensive use case for Close Quarter Battle tactics and principles. We will delineate between boring but useful versus flashy but actually useless techniques\, and focus on what the private citizen or patrol officer needs in an emergency situation when forced to fight in a building. You will learn how to move and think\, managing and prioritizing the highest threat\, and then have a lot of opportunity to practice with live ammunition inside our shoot house\, both in the day and in the dark.   \n\n\n\nPrerequisite: \n\n\n\nYou must have prior safe weapons handling experience to attend this seminar.  \n\n\n\nTopics:  \n\n\n\nDefining the scope of 1 man defensive CQBWeapons handling reviewFootwork and movementPrioritizing threatsManaging doorsLive fire shoot house drillsShoot/no shoot target identification \n\n\n\n\n\nLocation: \nOur facility is in the mountains 1 hour east of San Jose\, 1 hour south from Livermore.
