INSTRUCTOR: French Quarter Training (Craig French) - Instructor Bios

Half our lives are spent in the dark, and often times that's when nefarious things happen. Being able to shoot confidently and effectively in low light conditions is a skill that few shooters possess, or even consider in their training. We believe this to be an essential course for those who carry regularly or keep a gun for self defense in the home.

This one-day class is for experienced shooters to develop the knowledge and skills to defend themselves and others in dark situations, including inside the home, their vehicle, or in public. Considerations for lights both handheld and weapon mounted will be discussed, along with how to use them safely and effectively both defensively and as a deterrent. This class also dispels the myths around light use and equips students with real-world knowledge to use lights correctly.

Areas covered during this class:

• Legal issues involving low light handgun applications
• Building technique to improve fundamentals: grip, stance, sight picture, sight alignment, trigger control, follow-through, natural point of aim while using both handheld and weapon-mounted lights
• Loading, reloading, holstering, and safely handling your gun when you can't see
• Shooting quickly and accurately with one or more rounds in the dark
• Discerning between threats and non-threats and making quicker decisions
• Positional shooting, and using cover and concealment with a light
