    Basic Carbine - Feb. 14&16

    Basic Carbine Course
    Timings are 6pm to 10pm each night

    The aim of the Basic Carbine course is to provide training to the recreational shooter, in reflexive practical shooting competitions, where both speed and precision are paramount, in order to be effective in competition scenarios.

    The Basic Carbine Program is a two evening package progressing from dry to live training as follows:

    Evening One – Dry & Live Instruction: Dry & Live instruction covers the fundamentals of reflexive shooting; such as body position, stance, grip, firearm drills, and the competition mindset.

    Evening Two – Live Fire: The live fire component of the package comprises approximately 250 rounds carbine and 100 rounds handgun (transition drills) per candidate. The live fire, the main effort of the Program, develops both the muscle memory and the psychological comfort with one’s firearm and live ammunition that are fundamental to reflexive shooting.
    This package is dynamic and continues to be refined with each serial conducted. It must not be viewed as a qualification or certification.

    It is individual and personal interest training of a perishable skill that must be periodically refreshed.

    Furthermore, it should be considered the first step into more challenging training, where imagination and initiative can develop a whole host of training scenarios.

    Course Equipment Requirements
    1 x Semi-automatic detachable box magazine fed rifle (rimfire okay)
    5 x Rifle magazines
    1 x Magazine carriage system (tac vest, plate carrier, war belt, etc.)
    1 x Sling for rifle (Two or one point recommended)
    1 x Set of eye and ear protection (loaners available if necessary)
    250 rounds of rifle ammunition

    1 x Handgun
    2 x Handgun magazines
    1 x Holster
    1 x Mag pouch
    100 rounds of handgun ammunition

    Course Pre-Requisites
    Holster certified

    Cost: $150 for members
    $200 for non-members

    Sounds pretty sweet! Any plans to have a full-day Saturday or weekend course for out-of-towners?

    At this point it's hard to shut down our only rifle bay 1 Saturday a month (in the middle of the day too)... for some shooters that is 25% of their shooting time down the tube.

    Exploring other options, though.
