Practical Defensive Pistol
Description
This is not a typical class, but rather a unique opportunity to put your skills into practice. The course in held on the “pop up” silhoutte range at Camp Atterbury (range 10 or 15). This is the same range the military uses to train their soldiers and special forces. The silhouttes pop up randomly for 2 to 4 seconds in a variety of patterns to simulate the urgency of a defensive situation. Each stage is scored for hits and kills and, at the end, students will be given a printout showing their proficiency.
This class is about putting yourself and your equipment to the test.
