It's official, CQB clinics are returning for 2018 to get you ready to compete in say, Quebec, Ontario, Alberta, or BC; where ever CQB matches are running! :cool:

I'm so happy to announce this after a winter's hibernation. Time to get ready for CQB matches at Base Borden (dink27 is your Match Director) or Valcartier (Memnoch is your Match Director)

And now a teaser video from last year’s 2017 Clinic in Milo , AB




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 good to go... :cool:



When

14-15 April 2018. 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.... :p

$ 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/

Camping details:

The campsite is inexpensive and nice. Here are a few links.

Letters on Invite for your STATT

I will be directing you to my pointman and chief host: chalkriver2...... BUT that's AFTER you pay and register with ME! :cool:



Material Focus


Everything I'll be teaching you is based on the CQB matches fired by the ORA at Langemark Range, CFB Borden.



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 (chalkriver2, 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) :eek:
* 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/foru...tted-on-19-March-2016?p=11386601#post11386601

0830 - 0930 Convoy to Range Control and sign in (vehicle passes)

I will keep updating this thread regarding the numbers and spaces remaining!

EMT Information:

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

I'm in!

I missed that last one and graciously loaned my PMAGs to a buddy who could go... Now my PMAGs are sold... I have everything else though.
 
Barney Ive done other clinics in QC with an ar15 and I never saw a t97. Having just got one id love to try a clinic out with it. Shoots and cycles well, great balance. Im just concerned about the ergonomics. Its not the most viable option but whats your opinion on doing the clinic with it?

Thanks
Zack

T97 Shooters have done well with this clinic.. practice your mag changes and have lots of fun getting smoother with each passing relay through the skills and drills. It’s all good. Bring it on.....

Cheers, Barney
 
As this is on a Federal range an ATT from the CFO is required to bring restricted firearms onto base.
I will send a letter of invitation out to anyone who sends me their Email address in a pm. Then contact the CFO and they will issue you a short tem ATT.
 
PhillipeC Acadian: Your EMT deposit was perfectly done. You are Good to GO! See you in Garrisson Petawawa. Now send a PM to ChalkRiver2 and let him know you need a letter of invite to email to the CFO for a short term ATT for the dates of April 14-15.

Cheers, Barney
 
^ No advantage as 5 rounds per mag max is what the course of fire will be , just make sure you can insert the mag with 5 in it and the bolt forward .
I was notified we have cant use Echo range so I booked Bravo range .
And more bad news ....Dannys is booked again and we cant get in on Sat evening !!!!!
I have a reservation at Kelseys for us at 1830 .

I think this Dany's being booked thing is becoming a conspiracy. Did any one forget to flush last year? Miss the bole? Looks like i will be missing out on this one as well. I will be in the Dominican Republic. I will practice sight pictures on the beech and I'll share my results of move and shoot in a 100% sand environment.
Hope you guys get great weather and have a ton of fun converting money into smoke and noise!
