Train for the fight, not the range. Force-on-force training is one of the most effective ways to bridge the gap between traditional range training and the challenges of a real-world defensive encounter. This clinic puts students into dynamic, reality-based scenarios and immediate-action drills designed to test their ability to think, make decisions, communicate, and perform under stress. Students will participate in realistic force-on-force scenarios and isolation drills using Glock 17 pistols converted to fire Simunition FX training munitions, along with Shocknife and RedMan protective training equipment. Unlike traditional range training, where the target doesn't move, react, or make decisions, force-on-force training introduces an unpredictable human element. Students must recognize and evaluate developing situations and make appropriate decisions in real time. Training will challenge students in areas including: Decision-making under stress Threat recognition and assessment Shoot / no-shoot decision-making Movement and communication Reaction to rapidly changing situations Managing distance and positioning Immediate-action responses Applying previously learned defensive skills under pressure The goal isn't simply to see how well you can shoot. It's to find out how effectively you can think, move, communicate, make decisions, and apply your skills when the situation becomes dynamic and unpredictable. Our reality-based training provides students with an opportunity to identify strengths, expose weaknesses, and gain valuable experience in a controlled training environment. All guns, ammo, and gear are provided You may bring your own Glock holster and flashlight if you wish or we can provide you with one. All participants must be 18 and must NOT be prohibited from possessing a firearm. TO NOT BRING: Guns Ammo Knives Pepperspray

    "Rob is a fascinating person to listen to. His knowledge is unsurpassed by anybody I have ever come across. He's even funny sometimes. His facility is unsurpassed by anything I have ever seen. His staff is fantastic, knowledgeable, courteous, caring. Rich is a really good guy easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. Lisa, offered me a chair and I figured I'd be okay meaning against a wall. Well, when Lisa saw that I was having a hard time, she just brought me Stool to sit on. This would give you an idea of how much they care. They watch their students and anticipate their needs. I definitely hope to do more training with these people in the future. I don't think that there is a better facility out there. It's a place that would make a beginner comfortable and it would also be good for an expert. Thank you both Rob and Nicole."
