100% Veteran owned & operated. Military combat experienced instructors from different services. An extremely extensive Instructor Training Program (ITP). Students from the military and law enforcement to security and civilians.
The primary pistol shooting system we employ and teach is the military Natural Point of Aim (NPA) combat shooting system. Our syllabus for each of our five main combat shooting courses, from Basic through Advanced, comes directly from a US DoD military syllabus.
A symmetrical triangle platform that defines the posture, grip, aiming and recovery of pistol combat.
It provides upper body stability and lower body mobility for consistent, intuitive pistol shooting while moving or static with multiple shots on multiple targets.
It incorporates shooting from high ready (position 4) and low ready or retention (position 3). It allows for the instinctive requirement of focusing on the target. It requires no sights or external aids, but is suited for use with red dots, lasers, weapon lights and night vision goggles, using both sighted fire and point shooting techniques.
NPA is where your hands and body naturally put the gun. Rather than moving the gun to align with the target, you need to move your body so when you hold the gun properly it will naturally line up on the target. It utilizes: 1. natural body posture 2. symmetrical tool use 3. normal pointing to provide the instinctive basis of the system.
A combat system must be natural, consistently repeatable, efficient and accurate. NPA provides all of these required features and is combat proven.
Center Axis Relock (CAR) is utilized as a Close Quarters Battle (CQB) combat pistol shooting system that is useful for firearm retention and shooting from inside a vehicle. We teach techniques of this system in our Advanced Handgun Course.
For those looking to learn about and train for competitive shooting and information on International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA), International Practical Shooting Confederation (IPSC), Glock Sport Shooting Foundation (GSSF), Steel Challenge Shooting Association and Precision Action Shooting Sports (PASS) please see our Competitive Handgun Course.
By appointment only, all courses are private or no more than 2 students per instructor. We structure your course to your skill level. All courses have an academic session previewing all the elements taught in that course using laser training pistols. We teach and correct from observation of your actions to include on the spot video slow motion instruction. All courses scheduled on demand.
Video Instruction is used to help the student learn by seeing the correct technique from the instructor and then seeing their own technique in third person view. Multiple views and slow motion for maximum learning. Course videos are edited and sent to the student. Students get to analyze their shooting for future reference and as a refresher.
All of our classes are only $100 per student. There is no time limit. We continue training until you finish the course. Not every shooter progresses at the same pace. Also, no extra fee for private 1 on 1 instruction. Payment by cash, check or Venmo.
