    Night Vision Training

    I am dipping my toe into the NVG game and would like to find some training to become familiar with the technology. I would like to find somewhere within roughly a 5 hour drive from NC. I have looked online and found a few places but I am open to suggestions. Thanks in advance

    Reach out to The Range Complex in Autryville near Bragg.

    They will absolutely be able to accommodate you.

    ETA: The range is operated by a handful of former CAG guys. Many of their cadre pulled time as OTC Instructors. Give them a call and ask about arranging for private instruction. You'll be hard pressed to find a better resource than a career Unit NCO providing 1-on-1 instruction.

    Look for Green Line Tactical (Don Edwards), One Minute Out (Jamey Caldwell) or Presscheck Consulting (Chuck Pressburg) for NVG training. Pretty much the best in the business.
    AQ planned for years and sent their A team to carry out the attacks, and on Flight 93 they were thwarted by a pick-up team made up of United Frequent Fliers. Many people look at 9/11 and wonder how we can stop an enemy like that. I look at FL93 and wonder, "How can we lose?". -- FromMyColdDeadHand

    Dont forget TNVC as well. Most of their current class offerings are currently in Alliance Ohio. Might be a bit further than you might want to travel however worth the journey and the range facility makes it worth the effort especially for the TNVC Armed Professional Class.

    As mentioned Don is great and is frequently in Georgia and Florida. Jamey is fantastic and adds that awesome been there done that and helped designed that shit info and I just haven't been able to connect with Chuck for a NV class but would be highly recommended.

    More and more options popping up all the time as well as more organized NV groups forming and trying to continue/further their training.

    STAY DARK and OWN THE NIGHT

    Agree, Alliance has become one of the hubs of the training community. I have taken several classes there, one was a low light no light taught by Chappy when he was with LMS Defense and EAG during the Pat Rogers days.

    Good info!
    I just ordered my first set of NODs and will be looking for training as well. I'm only about an hour away from Fayetteville. Thanks!

    If you aren't aware; TRC are hosting low-light competitions called The Wolves Den.

    You can sign up on Practiscore. I just shot last night's match and it's a great way to get trigger time in under NODs.

    I find his videos very informative, can only imagine that his in person training is even better.

    What is TRC?

    University rifle club in Eastern PA has competitions, as does New Holland, but that may be too far for OP.
