Most people are aware that violent crimes happen more in no light or low light situations.

But most people have never practiced shooting in the dark while holding a flashlight.

This is a class to introduce students to shooting while holding a flashlight. This course requires proof of basic firearms proficiency. Prior firearms training with a certificate of training from an accredited firearms training school (NRA, STSK, etc.) or participation in an approved/recognized competitive shooting event is required.  It is preferred that you do not bring a weapon mounted tactical flashlight since we will be practicing different ways of holding a flashlight in the weak hand while shooting.

Some of the subjects to be covered in this class are:

Flashlight types; pros and cons.

5 different methods of flashlight hold and their origin; pros and cons.

Dry Fire practice. This will be done before beginning live fire in the class.

Review and practice of RITUALS.

Discussion and practice of a LOAD PLAN.

Requirements – Your legally owned handgun and the owners manual.  Eye and hearing protection. No open toed shoes. A bright smaller handheld flashlight, preferably with a retention strap, a strong/sturdy belt that must be attached via belt loops to long pants, an Outside The Waistband (OWB) Holster that attaches securely to your belt, a mag pouch or speed loader that attaches to your belt, a garment to conceal the firearm, eye and ear protection. We suggest bringing 200 rounds of ammo. You must know basic firearms safety and manipulation of your gun: load mag or cylinder, reload, slide stop, sight picture, sight alignment and trigger control. Appropriate footwear – No open toe shoes or sandals. We recommend a ball cap style hat for brass deflection. 

Private sessions are $300.00 They can be scheduled any time you and the instructor is available. If more than one person attends the price per student will be less.
