It's 17 March 2016, St. Patrick's Day and I'm beat from a day in the computer / electrical lab building circuits and adjusting resistors so I don't blow up too many LEDs. Then I'm even more tired from working with Multimeters and Oscilloscopes for the rest of the afternoon. Now the Panthers lead the Leafs 2-1 with 15 minutes remaining in the third period.
I can finally get to my business forum and type this stuff up. Georgian College Midland, ON Campus Skilled Trades Center has been keeping me busy this semester as I embark on my next journey towards my soon-to-be Apprentice Electrician stage of my life (or my second career after 30 years of being an professional edumakator)
It's official, CQB clinics are returning for 2016 to get you ready to compete in say, Quebec, Ontario, or BC; where ever CQB matches are running!
Where
CFB Petawawa Echo Range, but we will gather up at the White (P-141) Bldg, 5 bay garage doors, across from the Base Fire Hall (S-105). It's a quick right turn, immediately after you enter the main gate on base. Bring ID to show you are not a bad dude.
When
17-18 Sep 2016 Sat & Sunday
We usually gather around 0800 - 0830 and then convoy over to Range Control.
Cost
$ 80 for both days (go and find any instruction for that price point) ha ha ha ha
I'm only taking 28 shooters, first come, first served
SO... Before you EMT / pay me, send me a PM to confirm that we do in fact have space of you....
$ 10 for the Sentry that Range Control requires us to provide. Morgan has been casually collecting some monies to help out the sentry (ies) but some folks seem to have overlooked this extension of courtesy and good will. Now we have to cough up with a more serious application for the needed post. The $10 covers you for the weekend. Morgan will be collecting this fee AT the range.
Where to Stay
About 10-15min from range control (and right by Kelseys) http://www.petawawaqualityinnandsuites.com/
2 min from base with several fast food/pizza options close by http://www.petawawariverinnandsuites.ca/

Material Focus
Everything I'll be teaching you is based on the CQB matches fired by the ORA at Langemark Range, CFB Borden.
Here's the bulk of the material from my www.tacticalteacher.ca website:
CQB Clinic Description (both restricted and non-restricted focus)
CQB Competition (like in the ORA - Ontario Rifle Association) :
* Snap shooting, rapid fire shooting, modified prone shooting
* Advance and fire shooting
* rapid magazine changes (since we don't use hi-cap mags in Canada)
* gear selection, gear manipulation, gear evolution (I'm gonna surprise ya big time...)
* What works in close and what belongs in the video games
* What works for you and what does not work for you
* Why you do up all your pouches and zippers especially before using the PortaPotty
CQB Gear to Bring:
Depending upon the focus of the type of CQB clinic (we are doing restricted, but you are welcome to shoot your NR)
* Reliable , dependable, and tested RESTRICTED rifle & pistol
* Reliable, dependable NON-RESTRICTED rifle semi-auto loader: M1 Garand, Lee-Enfield, M14, M1A, Mini-14, etc (IF you want to shoot NR)
* Current Petawawa GC issued long term ATT or Short term ATT for guests, arranged by club host (chalkriver, my pointman)
* Optics (Aimpoint, EOTech, BUIS, iron sights, ACOG, ELCAN, 1x or 2x or 3x or 4x magnification scope)
* Bring over 400 Rounds of carbine ammo (distances inside 50m), bring the cheeep stuff
* Bring 100 rounds of pistol ammo (many of you experts KNOW to DOUBLE this round count)
* Ensure you have reliable iron sights (USGI for you M14 lovers, I hope) or reliable/tested/proven optics
* Your vest or webbing must hold the 5 x 5/20 or the 5 x 5/30 magazines you will need, depends on your platform.
* Your vest should have pouches for 2 pistol magazines (restricted CQB clinic)
* Your vest or webbing should be reliable (read: avoid the mall ninja, airsoft renditions) so buy quality
* Single Point sling (Vickers, BFGear, Magpul MS3 MS4)
* Bring extra ammo whenever in doubt (better yet double my suggested round count)
* a bottle of lube (CLP, oil, grease, KY Jelly)
* 2 or 3 pens/pencils
* small rag
* ear protection (electronic means are recommended)
* Ballistic glasses are mandatory
* an open mind
* a sense of humour
* Read about some gear preparation ideas here: http://www.canadiangunnutz.com/forum...1#post11386601

EMT Information:
Name: Tactical Teacher
Question: What is your Original CGN handle?
