Our four-hour program is designed to guide you through each step, building confidence and fostering a supportive learning environment. Explore the essential skills of holster use and concealed carry as you become more fluid and consistent with holster draw, magazine changes, speed reloads, and tactical reloads. Dive into magazine malfunction drills, barricade shooting, and gain proficiency in clearing various malfunctions such as failure to fire, double feeds, and stove pipes.

While we recommend semi-automatic pistols for optimal learning, if a revolver is your preferred firearm, let our instructors know in advance. Please note that chest, shoulder, ankle, and cross draw holsters are not allowed for any defensive pistol class.

Join us for an empowering experience where you’ll not only learn but also become proficient in the practical skills needed for responsible and effective pistol handling.
