SUMMARY:Shoot Move Communicate 5JUL25
DESCRIPTION:Shoot\, Move\, Communicate is the student’s first introduction to modern American fighting tactics. Most combat rifle classes are technical in nature\, this module is tactical in nature. Without an understanding of the context in the bigger picture\, or how fighting is done\, having and knowing how to shoot a gun is useless. This is your introduction to teamwork\, and how to train shooting and moving together safely.  \nThis class is part of the summer 2025 Combat Rifle Small Group Semi-Private Class Series. We schedule classes based upon the student’s schedule\, with groups of 3-9 students at a time. This program consists of eight 5-hour modules.

SUMMARY:Tactical Precision Rifle: D.O.P.E. 13JUL25
DESCRIPTION:D.O.P.E. is an acronym that stands for “data on prior engagements”. Generally you think of a rifle’s zero as calibrating the rifle’s point of impact to the point of aim at one distance. In long distance rifle shooting we actually have a baseline zero like normal\, then we gather as many as possible additional zeros at known distances in order to gather data such that we compile a notebook full of information for future use.  \nExpect our training to begin by confirming zero at 100 meters on paper\, then we will move back to shoot at steel targets from 100 meters all the way out to 1000 meters.  \nOur goal is to build up your shooting skills and consistency such that you can reliably achieve 1 minute of angle groups with either the bolt action or semi automatic sniper rifle\, which will equate to effective range on man sized targets at 1200 meters and beyond.  \nRemember\, we can provide for you all weapon systems\, scopes\, ammunition\, and equipment. You are certainly welcome to bring and use your own\, but buying expensive gear is not necessary to participate in this training course. Always communicate proactively with the instructor if you need to use the school’s equipment and ammunition so that we can prepare for you.  \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 48 unique five hour modules\, plus additional practical and field exercises.

SUMMARY:Tactical Precision Rifle: Fundamentals 13JUL25
DESCRIPTION:Tactical Precision Rifle Fundamentals teaches the 7 aspects of rifle shooting technique. Those are: body position\, natural point of aim\, breathing\, sight alignment\, sight picture\, trigger press\, and follow through. Expect our training to be conducted primarily on the 100 meter line\, shooting from the prone position on paper targets.  \nOur goal is to build up your shooting skills and consistency such that you can reliably achieve 1 minute of angle groups with either the bolt action or semi automatic sniper rifle\, which will equate to effective range on man sized targets at 1200 meters and beyond.  \nRemember\, we can provide for you all weapon systems\, scopes\, ammunition\, and equipment.

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. If you want to go out to public land and have stray bullets wiz past you\, be my guest to talk with my student Mike who got shot through both legs there. 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 precision rifle craft\, combat rifle craft\, and sniper 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.  \nLocation: \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. \nRequired Equipment: \nNotebook and writing utensil \nCancellations: \nIf you do not plan to attend\, notify us immediately so that we can give your spot in class to another student.

SUMMARY:CQB Theory 26JUL25
DESCRIPTION:Close Quarter Battle is what the brits call simply “fighting in somebody’s house”. This module of instruction is an educational\, historical\, and contextual discussion about what\, why\, and how we arrived at the current generation of CQB doctrine\, and how military\, police\, and private citizens adapt the basic principles to suit their varying needs. \nNote the difference between technical and tactical training. Technical training modules are hardware and skill focused\, whereas tactical training modules\, such as this one\, are focused on decision making and problem solving.   \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School.

SUMMARY:Basic Defensive CQB 26JUL25
DESCRIPTION:Modern conflicts are fought and won in and around urban environments. If 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. In this tactical training module you will practice the movement\, safety\, and problem solving aspects of single person and partner defensive combat within buildings or tight urban confines.

SUMMARY:Tactical Precision Rifle: D.O.P.E. 27JUL25
DESCRIPTION:D.O.P.E. is an acronym that stands for “data on prior engagements”. Generally you think of a rifle’s zero as calibrating the rifle’s point of impact to the point of aim at one distance. In long distance rifle shooting we actually have a baseline zero like normal\, then we gather as many as possible additional zeros at known distances in order to gather data to predict future shots.  \nExpect our training to begin by confirming zero at 100 meters on paper\, then we will move back to shoot at steel targets from 100 meters all the way out to 1000 meters.  \nRemember\, we can provide for you all weapon systems\, scopes\, ammunition\, and equipment. You are certainly welcome to bring and use your own\, but buying expensive gear is not necessary to participate in this training course. Always communicate proactively with the instructor if you need to use the school’s equipment and ammunition so that we can prepare for you.  \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 48 unique five hour modules\, plus additional practical and field exercises.

SUMMARY:Tactical Precision Rifle: Wind 27JUL25
DESCRIPTION:In precision long range rifle shooting\, distance and elevation corrections are very predictable and easy to calculate. That is a science. On the other hand\, feeling the wind\, seeing the wind\, predicting the wind\, knowing how the wind flows – how the sun\, weather\, oceans\, and mountains affects the flow of air over the earth – that is an art that takes nuance and experience to master. In this module I will present to you key concepts for how to visualize how the wind is moving\, then a few simple quick mathematical formulas for how to estimate how much the wind will effect your bullet in flight\, and how to compensate for it. Then\, we will practice together\, and on your own you will practice\, and practice\, and practice.  \nExpect our training to begin by confirming zero at 100 meters on paper\, then we will move to the western ridge to engage targets across the valley between 400 and 1200 meters distance with distinct and challenging cross winds.  \nOur goal is to build up your experience reading the wind\, such that you can reliably achieve first round impacts on man sized targets at 600 meters\, 2nd round impacts out to 1000 meters.   \nRemember\, we can provide for you all weapon systems\, scopes\, ammunition\, and equipment. You are certainly welcome to bring and use your own\, but buying expensive gear is not necessary to participate in this training course. Always communicate proactively with the instructor if you need to use the school’s equipment and ammunition so that we can prepare for you.  \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School.
