Personal Security Series - Day Three: Shotgun
Personal Security Series - Day Three: Shotgun
The Lodestone Training and Consulting Personal Security Series is designed to empower you to safely use the firearms at hand and defend yourself. This series of classes will teach how to use and manipulate Pistols, Rifles, and Shotguns in a confined location such as a home or house of worship. We will teach you principles, or truths, then you will use what techniques work best for your life and circumstances. These classes are paced to the student’s level of experience, so that no matter what skill level the student arrives with, the entire class succeeds.
Day Three is a Shotgun skills day. We start with a conversation about principles and techniques for using your Shotgun in a confined space. We discuss patterning and ammo selection. We move to the range and shoot a progression of drills. These drills are designed and organized to help prepare the student to work and move inside of buildings and other confined environments. This class is perfect for the concerned citizen, resource officer, Church security, or anyone who may need to defend themselves inside a building.
The day consists of 1-2 hours of classroom instruction, followed by live fire instruction.
There is a 30-60 minute lunch break, with lunch being provided by LTAC.
