Defensive Pistol Tactics & Mindset (Apr 24, 2022)

  • SCALE 17706 Valley View Drive Jordan, MN 55352 United States (map)

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

You’ve got a carry permit or an interest in the defensive use of a pistol, and you’re ready to train in realistic defensive scenarios.

Participants will work through realistic situations that call for clear thinking, judgment, and effective defensive tactics. This course includes hands-on classroom work, simunitions (non-lethal marking rounds), and live-fire training in a small-group and safe environment.

Students will:

  • assess risks and safely maneuver in a 360-degree dynamic environment

  • engage targets from behind cover and concealment

  • move, shoot, clear malfunctions, and draw from the holster

  • develop a personal training plan

Discussion of legal, ethical, and physical consequences of lethal force will follow scenario-based training and a detailed performance review. Protective gear, firearms, holsters, and non-lethal ammunition will be provided.

Participants should be 21+ years old, be legally able to own a firearm, and be able to handle and operate a firearm safely.

Required gear:

  • carry, compact or full-size semiautomatic pistol (no sub-compacts) plus 2 or more magazines

  • quality IWB/OWB holster (molded plastic/leather is best)

  • eye/ear pro (electronic is best)
