Rifle Pistol Transition

$295.00

This one-day course builds on the principles and concepts of the Rifle Marksmanship Foundation Series and the Pistol Marksmanship Foundation Series.  In a fight, the decision transition to your secondary weapon should be smooth and instantaneous. We will spend the whole day working on the fine points of making this a reality.  By the end of the day you will know when and where to move from your primary to your secondary weapon as you accomplish your own individual shooter solution.  

The day will start with a classroom discussion on the principles of using two weapon systems together. We will move to the range and do some fundamental drills for both systems.  We then introduce transition, covering the fine points.  We spend as much time explaining the why as we do the how.  We finish up with a series of drills that will push the student to the point of failure as they learn how to navigate their own personal shooter solution.  Just because your rifle goes dry does not mean the right answer is to automatically draw your pistol.  Just like the majority of our classes, we want you to be playing Chess while others are playing Checkers. 

There is a 30-60 minute lunch break each day, with lunch being provided by LTAC.
