Here's what you can expect to get: (remember, we'll have people with limited exp and people with alot of exp. so it'll all be on crawl,walk, run principles... those who need extra attention will get it but we'll all learn together (yes, I learn stuff too!) and those who already know what to do will get practise!)
Safety lecture
IPSC rules, divisions, scoring, equipment
gun handling at matches (duh!)
Gear set up (what you need and what you don't) and maintenance
Basic gun handling for carbine/rifle
Sighting tips
mag changes
Live fire, sighting, dot shooting, familiarization with YOUR firearm (the more time you spend with a gun in your hand, the more you learn about it and you).
Target transitions, multiple shots, mag changes (lots of 'em)
Positional shooting
Shooting and moving into positions
Shooting on the move
Mini IPSC stages - for fun and practice of skills
That's just for the one day deal...it'll be a full day and I want the shooters to get about 250 rounds downrange.
What you'll need:
250 rounds (bring 300)
IPSC rifle (I don't care what it is, I can help you learn how to use it competitively).
5 mags, stripper clips, clips etc.
Mag or ammo carrier - bring what you would normally use...if it's ultra tactical I don't care, if it's a Home Depot nail bag (which actually works by the way) I don't care either... as long as it can carry your mags, stripper clips, enbloc clips, whatever and it doesn't frustrate you then great! (if you need help deciding what to use then PM me and I'll help you out!)
Eye and hearing protection (it might be wise to double plug!)
Water and snacks
Bug juice and sun screen
A hat
A button neck shirt! (hot casings suck!.. and they give a good blister sometimes too!)
Cleaning gear
Spare parts (if you have them)!
I'll have some of my gear there so you can also try mine and I will put you onto who sells in stuff... I will not tell you how to waste your money!
Nice to haves: knee and elbow protection, pen or pencil and notepad, a good attitude and friendly disposition!
What I will NOT teach:
Team tactics
Use of cover
Room clearing
Building assault
Vehicle assault
Police and military tactics
(These items I will only teach to police/military and professional security people).
Course fee will be $100.00 per person in the Ottawa area and $125.00 outside (cause I'll have to travel, eat, sleep and make merry somewhere).
Class sizes will be 8 max.. that way, I can monitor you and give individual attention if necessary.
