PREREQUISITE: Intermediate-level carbine class, rifle and handgun proficiency required (if you are unsure of your skill level, take our quick proficiency quiz)

INSTRUCTOR: Craig French / French Quarter Consulting - Instructor Bios

The Advanced Defensive Rifle class is a one day class for experienced shooters, designed to increase the speed and accuracy on target in a deadly force self-defense situation. We accomplish this through the use of dynamic drills that require shooting from different types of cover or positions and evaluating where a student can increase their efficiency. THIS IS NOT A BEGINNER LEVEL CLASS - this class is for well-versed students only. Shooters who cannot maintain safe weapons manipulation will be pulled from the class or downgraded to dryfire or airsoft weapons.

This class offers a fast-paced curriculum for shooters who have mastered the fundamentals and have a good amount of training behind them. After a very quick refresher, students will take a deeper look at improving marksmanship and correcting the bad habits, especially as they relate to fast defensive shooting and transitioning to a sidearm. The class features a high round count through multiple shots on multiple targets, from multiple positions, and with multi-directional movement. Moving targets are introduced as well as live-action role-playing to build critical decision making skills. Time and skill permitting, students also learn how to work with a partner and gain a basic understanding of tactics, including room entry and clearing.

Areas covered during this class:

  • Firing multiple shots accurately
  • Shooting at multiple targets
  • Moving forward and backwards with rifle deployed
  • Moving laterally to both sides with rifle deployed
  • Shooting from non-standard and unconventional shooting positions
  • Shooting one-handed with each hand effectively
  • Clearing malfunctions with two hands and singlehandedly
  • Shooting when a partner is involved
  • Transitioning from carbine to pistol proficiently
  • Face to face decision making
  • Introduction to room entry and teamwork as time and skill allows
  • Timed drills to increase shooter efficiency
  • Decision-based drills (shoot/don't shoot)
