DEFENSIVE PISTOL, ADVANCED

Defensive Pistol Advanced

This full-day course builds on the solid foundation of the Defensive Pistol Basic and Intermediate classes, pushing the shooter into complex and demanding defensive scenarios. Students will refine speed, accuracy, and decision-making under pressure while engaging multiple threats, moving dynamically, and working from varied positions and cover.

The curriculum emphasizes:

Advanced manipulations and rapid problem-solving during malfunctions and reloads

Precision shooting at extended distances

Use of movement, angles, and cover to dominate a fight

Stress-based drills that integrate accuracy with time pressure and situational complexity

By the end of the day, students will have developed a higher level of confidence and competence with their defensive pistol, preparing them for the unpredictable nature of real-world confrontations.
