·         Scenario Development

·         Physiological Effects of Combat Stressors

·         Threat identification

·        Multiple-target Indexing

·         Shooting from Cover

·         Positional Shooting

·         Pie /Break Corners

·         Immediate and Remedial Action

Again, this is NOT a “basic firearms” course; it is not a “competition shooting” course; it is not a “concealed carry” course. It is recommended, but not required, that you attend our GunRunner Pistol Course, Combat Pistol Course, or an equivalent Pistol course taught by competent instructors.
