    I think one day events are easier on most peoples schedules but a two day course is more valuable in that the instructors can simply continue on with a curriculum from the day before with less time spent "re-starting". Even if there are levels of instruction held on different single day events, there is some time efficiency lost as students have to be brought up to speed at subsequent events to remind them of what they have forgotten.

    Maybe a saw off is basic/intro level courses on single days and then more advance curriculum over two days.

    Come closer this-a-way towards Quebec (maybe EOSC)?. We have more vices to wallow in.......

    Any chance of some training at Borden? I'd prefer a weekend over a one-day.

    If you guys are interested please contact Spencer at training@oneshottactical.com and he can help get a course set up at your range.
    Please note, my opinion could be biased based on past and present employment

    Can you form an email list to contact interested members when a course comes up for the taking?

    I prefer one day courses, but will make the odd excersion for 2 days.
    There's Mil-spec, and then there's Gunnutz-spec.
    One is stringent, the other contains nuts.

    Generally, you don't need to be a member to attend a training course. You might need an invitation if you ATT requires it, but that is easy to take care of.

    one and two day courses would appeal to me, I would be very interested in taking a black badge course as I feel I get the run around at my range when I inquire about getting holster certification, anyone reading this please feel free to contact me about this. Or if one shot wants to organize one that would be great to. Also I always have a list of things to buy from one shot so if your coming to town dont forget to load up the truck.
