Good to know. Curious where this particular MF shooting range is opening since there are multiple locations.
I'm always looking to train more so I'll be keeping an ear open for details on the Tricon pistol course next year as well.
Happy Holidays everyone!

Very cool! Even cooler...my grandparents and aunt and uncle live in Baxter so I have free room and board already lined up.
Louis will be here in August for the shotgun course. I don't think I'll be able to swing Jason as it is going to be around $650 per person but Dave and I are thinking of putting one on. I received an email from Tricon and we are looking at the end of August for the pistol course.
I'll keep you posted.
Mike, do you anticpate that the TriCon pistol course will be CP1 or CP2?
I note that CP2 is 2000 rounds. Price and availability of ammo may have some practical effects on peoples' ability to pull that off.
Hmac,
Mike and I are going to meet really soon to finalize some details but it looks like shotgun is a go. We will get round count and information up ASAP on the web site so you can start saving ammo now. I think pistol would prob be pistol 1 but who knows we may get him to customize something as well. This year year is going to be a tough training year due to ammo.
Also, hearing your support and interest to take a rifle class from us is a HUGE compliment and it really means a lot to me. We have some ideas and it will probably be a reality for our first carbine class outside of the basic one we currently offer. This would fall in line more with other carbine schools, 2 day and have more shooting drills and range time then the basic class which is just that, the basics.
And on top of that Mike and I are working on developing the new classes for Mills range that will be 2-4 hours in length per class for those wanting to split up training and then can decide how long they want to continue. Similar to the IDS series that you've taken Hmac but we will also branch out to basics, women's only classes, rifle, and then we are hoping others will join us for in home defense classes and similar as well. Don't worry it won't just be the Mike and Dave show
Thanks, Dave

I see the TriCon even this Auguest will be CP2. Not sure about others, but I was hoping for CP1.
Has anyone heard any talk about a carbine 1 or pistol 1 course scheduled for 2013 around these parts?
Hey Bravo,
Mike and I will be offering a 2 day carbine 1 course this summer. We are teaching this on our own but we are really excited to offer this and think it will be a great course. We also have some stuff that I have not seen in any other carbine courses as well as moving target drills. We may possibly offer a pistol course as well. Please shoot me a PM and I'd be more then happy to make sure you are on the email list. Also we will be offering some pistol courses as well. Don't let CP2 intimidate you, if you can handle a pistol safely and have a solid grasp of the fundamentals you would be fine. I would be more then happy to help with training before if you'd be interested.
Thanks
Dave
