Defensive Handgun II: Defensive Handgun Tactics

Defensive Handgun II is taught at our new firearms training center located in Bloomery WV.  It is an 8 hour intermediate defensive Handgun course for students who have been consistently shooting for several years and are serious about carrying a concealed handgun.  A basic understanding of the fundamentals of shooting, along with good marksmanship skills, are required to take this course.  The class starts with a quick skills evaluation and warm up.  Students quickly jump into more advanced drills involving turns, movement, long distance shots, vehicles and multiple threat scenarios.  Additional types of gun malfunctions are taught, proper reloading techniques under time restraints are used.  Basic communication skills with other classmates to solve multiple threat problems are taught.  The use of cover & concealment is heavily critiqued.  The safe and proper presentation of a handgun from a holster (either concealed or not concealed), and proper two-handed gun manipulation from strong-side to support-side and back are relied upon throughout the course.  Students will also learn single-handed shooting using their strong-side, with an introduction to single-handed shooting using their support-side.  The class concludes with culmination drills where the student must utilize skills learned to solve a real world problem.  Upon successful completion of all shooting exercises, the student will receive a signed 8 hour course completion certificate.
