About

After having learned the basics of gun safety and handling and having practiced the fundamentals of pistol marksmanship, the next level of training must include the defensive use of a handgun. This course offers that training. Sadly, most people think that merely learning to operate their handgun means they will be successful in prevailing in a life-threatening encounter. They are deluded in their thinking.
Nothing is more terrifying than fighting to save one’s life. The stress is debilitating, robbing an individual of all the skills necessary to aim and fire a handgun accurately. This course teaches stress-fire. Through a series of carefully designed drills, instructors will teach their students how to manipulate the handgun with gross motor skills, how to adapt “flash sight picture” and how to not only follow through but FOLLOW UP!
As an instructor course, the trainer will learn how to apply stress to the students in a safe and productive manner. The trainer provides “stress inoculation” over the live-fire period by carefully building on skills gained.
Lastly, the strategy offered in this course of developing and fortifying a safe room will minimize the need to ever resort to a lethal force confrontation.
Instructors are needed to promote this course to every person who maintains a firearm for their home safety.
What's included: NRA student text and instructor lesson plans and written test.
All candidates must be current NRA Basic Pistol instructors before enrolling and have taken the student level of this course.
TIME STARTS: The course will start at 7 AM Saturday.
