Defensive Rifle

Our Defensive Rifle courses are designed to accommodate beginner to advanced students over age 12. Defensive Rifle courses are geared towards safety, handling, technique, and defensive tactics.  Each class is built on muscle memory concepts and movements that become instinct.  Shooting cans off a fence-post is not what we teach here.  Our training will protect you and give you a tactical advantage in a threat situation in a safe and efficient manner. The more you know, the safer you and those around you are.  Our training revolves around the AR platform, so you need to own this weapon system.  This is a low-recoil system, so students over 12 are encouraged to attend. We offer four (4) progressive courses of rifle training.

Included with the course is the NRA Basics of Rifle Shooting which is intended for all individuals regardless of previous shooting experience or NRA-affiliation. It is an instructor-led course where you will receive direct instruction from an NRA-certified instructor from beginning to end.  Students learn NRA’s rules for safe gun handling; rifle parts and operation; ammunition; shooting fundamentals; range rules; shooting from the bench rest, prone, sitting, standing and kneeling positions; cleaning; and continued opportunities for skill development.
