Vickers Tactical "Enhanced" Intermediate/Advanced Pistol/Carbine Class


Vickers Tactical will be teaching a hybrid "Enhanced" Intermediate/Advanced level pistol/carbine class in South Hill, Virginia 12/1/06-12/3/06. This class is not listed on Larry’s website because it is something we have put together in the past. The enhanced portion will be the same team/small unit drill that we ran in the last class, plus some of the others that we did not get to due to time constraints (Shooting out of vehicles, more team tactics, ETC.). They will get taught in this class based on class performance. A low light pistol/carbine section will also be taught as well as a Crimson Trace laser grips demonstration. The class will basically be a one day pistol, one day carbine/transitions, and one advanced day with the “Enhanced” portion.

Larry would prefer if every student has already taken a Vickers Tactical class, but other training classes and Military/LE experience will be evaluated on a case by case basis.

Several seats have already been filled. I have about 4-5 seats available at this time.

If your interested please contact me via PM or email

Dinger

Your in box is full, I sent you an email to your regular address. I am in for this class.

[VA_Dinger]

Colonel, 10-4 and thanks.

I will put you down for a seat.

It is always a pleasure to train with you.

[VA_Dinger]

FYI - We are also planning on having a Gem-Tech suppressor demonstration from one of the company reps. It should be very interesting and everybody will get a chance to check out and test fire their products.

Edit (10/18/06) - This never happened. The company rep could not fit this into his schedule.

[M4arc]

I'm in.

Now I just need to start sweet talking the wife into letting me go.

ETA: Oh, I need to ask a question: since I didn't take his first one or a previous class with him can I still get in?

I think it's safe to say we have MANY guys on this forum that will vouch for you.

Your IN.

[VA_Dinger]

FYI- I have just four open spots for this class available.

Please contact me via PM or email if you are interested in attending.

[VA_Dinger]

Hello Colonel

Yes we are a go.

I will be sending out a payment/range directions/final instruction’s email this week. I’m really looking forward to this class after missing our last class.

[VA_Dinger]

OK, I sent out the class email last night.

If I missed anybody please let me know.

Hi Kevin, yes John M is your friend.

Go ahead and send me an email. I have an open spot if you want it.

[VA_Dinger]

FYI - We will be starting the class at 10:00 AM Friday (December 1st). This will allow the guys traveling to get some additional rest and it also ties in nicely with the low light section.

I have also added Kevin_B to the class roster.

[VA_Dinger]

This is going to be one outstanding class.

[VA_Dinger]

FYI - Due to a few LE individuals having some scheduling issues we have a few open seats available for this class. If you’re interested in attending please contact me, it’s not too late.

[METT-T]

Stupid poverty. Hope you guys are able to run another iteration sometime next year.
