Course Description

This course was developed by the late Jack Vickery, a Firearms Instructor and Assistant Team Leader for the Cleveland FBI SWAT. Most law enforcement officers and SWAT team members have limited time and resources to train, therefore making it more critical that this time is used to its fullest potential. The Pareto principal (a.k.a. the 80/20 rule) states that focusing the majority of your training time on 20% of the most important skills will help achieve 80% of your results.

Over years of training and experience, we’ve identified what we believe to be these critical skills. You will learn techniques that are reliable, repeatable, efficient, and consistent across all aspects of law enforcement.

This course will not only teach you how to be a better gunfighter, but it will also provide you with a system that you can incorporate into your firearms training program.
