Rifle Marksmanship Foundation Series - Day Three
Rifle Marksmanship Foundation Series - Day Three
The Rifle Marksmanship Foundation Series lays the groundwork for what we teach at Lodestone Training and Consulting. The courses provide an introduction to the 8 fundamentals of marksmanship and provide the student with a series of foundation drills to reinforce these fundamentals and ensure the student’s success. 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 of Rifle Marksmanship concentrates on the analysis and resolution of carbine malfunctions. It also expands on ambidextrous shooting and single-hand shooting in the event of injury. The course, if taken as a standalone, is targeted at students who are experienced in the use of rifles and are looking to advance their knowledge of malfunction causes and clearance. This class offers the perfect opportunity for the student to become familiar with the types of malfunctions typically experienced with a rifle, and how to resolve them.
This class concentrates on the AR family of rifles, but other carbine types are encouraged.
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.
