2 Day Performance Pistol for Law Enforcement 

This course is designed to enhance the shooting skills for all law enforcement officers in the use of a duty pistol. We will explore principle-based methods and techniques to help shooters perform their hard skills faster and more accurately. Topics covered in this course include weapon manipulation skills, aiming/engagement strategies, shooting on the move, and engaging multiple targets. This course will heavily focus on the proper application of the fundamentals of marksmanship at speed. We will move away from the static line drills and push into aggressive movement drills on the second day. These skills will be tested and evaluated with practical assessment drills shot on demand utilizing hit factor scoring. These drills will be scored and recorded for class ranking.
