Carbine
1 day course

This course is designed toward developing a quality training evolution that allows the student to internalize the techniques to allow for safe self practice. This is an active shooting course of fire and not a classroom lecture. The student will be learning to shoot to live in a worst case scenario. This will not be target practice.

Students will learn basic ballistics, bullet configuration, and how to battle sight the carbine at 25 meters. Carbine accessories such as slings, sights, and optics will be discussed. The importance of having a white light source on the carbine for target identification will be explained.


Techniques that will be practiced are: proper loading, unloading, and the press check. Other topics covered will be shooting positions, dismounted shooting, malfunction drills, moving & shooting, and position shooting.
