Defensive Shotgun:
The defensive shotgun course is designed to teach the proper safety and operation of the shotgun. For the beginner to intermediate level student with knowledge and proficiency in the proper shooting fundamentals. Teaching how to safely handle and operate the shotgun, we also instruct on the various stances and shooting positions for the shotgun. A defensive firearm, the shotgun is ideal for home defense and this course is tailored to that idea. During this course we also incorporate the pistol allowing for a primary and secondary firearm transition. Proper deployment of the shotgun from both a tool of deadly force to a tool with less-than-lethal capabilities will be reviewed and explained. This is an intensive course for those with a basic understanding of the use of the shotgun, including proper round selection, tactical reloads and combat reloads.
*This course will include a stress-induced evolution to highlight discussions that take place throughout the day.
