Demystifying  the Firearm

Do you live in a house with firearms? Do you want to be safe around them? Do you want ot learn to shoot, but do not feel comfortable with your firearm or at the range? This is the class for you. This class is designed to give the knowledge and basic skills needed to make sure that you are able to enjoy your firearms safely and comfortably. This is also the perfect place to begin if you want to continue on with your training or to understand and handle firearms or be more comfortable around the gun owner in your life. This is not a self-defense or marksmanship class, this is solely focused on the firearm and your understanding and familiarity with it.

This is where you begin to lay the foundation of your over-learned skills - the patterns of basic behavior that become so automatic, you can do it without even thinking. These skills include fundamentals such as how you hold and operate your weapon and how you address the environment around you.

laser training for decsion making 

Now that you have taken our CCW class, you have risen from unconscious incompetence and you are beginning to "know what you don't know". You recognize that it is time to begin developing some conscious competence of the skills and thought processes that support effective self defense.

In Laser training for decision making, you will begin to hone the skills of threat-recognition and life-and-death decision-making through our thought-provoking shoot-don't-shoot video scenarios. You will use a laser weapon to physically act out your response to the video as though it were a real event, and then you will have the opportunity to critique the consequences of your own choices, so that you can practice responses that serve your objective perfectly, and choose better next time if need be.

This is the mental training that will prepare you to survive not only physically but legally, morally, and spiritually as well.

Laser training for decision making with Live Fire includes all of these same benefits of laser training with the addition of live fire training on the range in order to instill excellent weapon handling techniques that mesh seamlessly with your mental training.

This class will cover:
