This class is going to discuss aspects of carbine / AR platform deployment and operation equipped with a low-powered variable optic (LPVO)

This is a course that will improve upon current carbine skill levels and vastly improve upon the economy of movement, deployment, and operator efficiency.

This is not a caliber-specific course. Any caliber used in Law Enforcement deployment is acceptable.

We STRONGLY suggest you have a basic zero on your rifle before arrival.  You need to be able to hit an 8.5x11 sheet of paper when we start.

Topics:

  • Safety
  • Equipment selection and considerations
  • Zeroing and offset considerations
  • Fundamentals / Diagnostics
  • Reloads:  Emergency and Administrative
  • Clearing malfunctions
  • Transitions
  • Multiple threats/threat selection
  • Barricades
  • Distance and accuracy
  • Cruiser deployment
  • Working around vehicles
  • Movement while shooting
  • Unorthodox shooting positions

If you DO NOT have an LPVO but want to gain knowledge, you can still attend this class.
