RED DOT I

This course begins with the fundamentals of pistol mounted optics (red dot, green dot, blue dot), how they work as opposed to iron sights, cleaning and maintenance, how to zero the dot, how to find the dot, and how to hit your target.

By the end of this course you will be able to use your gun at the range and hit your targets using your optic instead of iron sights.

This is not a beginner shooting course, nor is it a self defense course.  The goal is to allow you to integrate red dot sights into your range and dry-fire practice using the fundamentals of shooting (Stance, Grip, ect.).

This is a classroom course with simulator guns only.  No live fire.

RED DOT II

This course focuses on integrating optics into your existing self defense skills.  You will learn about holster selection, finding the dot while drawing from the holster and after recoil, how  to take advantage of the red dot while avoiding or adapting to sudden loss of the dot, and more.

This is a 6 hour course, 4 hours classroom and 2 hours live fire, with a break in between to allow travel to the live fire range.

RED DOT III

This is a more advanced course which covers complete loss of sights, shooting from cover, low light shooting, red dot height over bore, increased accuracy, and much much more!  This isn't just about optics, though.  We refine your stance, grip, breathing, and the other shooting fundamentals that will bring your shooting skills to a whole new level.

This is an 8 hour course, 4 hours classroom and 4 hours live fire, with a break in between to allow travel to the live fire range.

What to bring:

If you don't have everything you need, or you're not certain, contact me before giving up!  Most every problem can be solved.

Closed toe shoes, long pants, and high neck shirt 

Gun with mounted red dot sight (does not need to be zeroed)

200 rounds of ammunition (may be purchased at the range)

Serviceable hip holster and belt

Eye protection - Glasses will usually suffice (can be rented at the range)

Ear protection (I have earplugs if needed)

Enthusiasm!

A word about guns and holsters:

If you don't have a red dot on your gun, contact me.  Rentals and/or loaners may be available.

Holsters!  If you wish to carry with an appendix holster, cross draw holster, fanny pack or purse holster, or some other method that isn't a hip holster, that's great!  We will certainly train with that.  However, a hip holster is a requirement for this course, both for the simulator and live fire, as hip holsters are the only ones allowed on the range.  If you don't have one, contact me.  I have a limited number of suitable holsters to loan.

Range and classroom fees are included in the price.

If you have a court order or your attorney advised you to attend a firearm safety class, this is it.  This is a non-shooting course where you will learn how to safely handle and store firearms to prevent access by unauthorized people, namely children.  I've kept the price as low as I can because I know what it's like to be under legal scrutiny.
 

In this course we go over the following topics without judgment:

The Universal Safety Rules for handling guns.

Unloading and clearing pistols, revolvers, and long guns.

Safe and secure storage and transportation of guns and ammunition.

Safe storage and transportation of less lethal weapons (taser, pepper spray)

How to react when your kiddos inevitably see you're guns.

Any other topics that pertain to your individual situation.

Still not ready to shoot a real gun? Still working up the nerve to go to a gun range? This course gives you the opportunity to get comfortable operating and shooting a gun, but without a real gun, at your own pace. You can practice safe gun handling and drawing from a holster, as well as refine your stance, grip, trigger control, and sight picture with a coach, all using a simulator. Take as much or as little time as you need to build your confidence, take as many breaks as you like, and have fun!

This is Range Day without the range.  

The No's:

No range fees, no costly ammunition, no cleaning guns, no hassle of transporting guns, no bad weather, no hot weather, no dirt or mud, and no danger.

The Yes's:

Wide choice of targets, moving targets, dueling trees, real life scenarios, shoot/don't-shoot scenarios, and zombies!
