Here is a brief run down on the courses:

The Basic Carbine course is designed to provide each student with the core skills needed to properly use the carbine in a safe and effective manner in defensive situations. The course is taught using the Vickers Shooting Method and covers the following topics: marksmanship fundamentals, carbine manipulations, and extensive shooting drills at various distances using several shooting positions.

The following principles will be strongly reinforced throughout the course:

• Know and adhere to the real world safety rules that govern professional firearms handling.
• Only accurate hits on target can decide the fight in your favor – therefore accuracy is King.
• You are accountable for every round you fire – squeeze the trigger as if your life depends on it because it does.

The course tuition is $175 which includes a range fee for use of the facility we will be shooting at. You can register online for the course here.
