Applied Pistol Application
Enhancing Skills Through Practical and Purposeful Handgun Training
The use of handguns for personal defense has become increasingly prevalent in modern society. With this rise comes the need for effective, practical, and safe handgun training. Applied pistol application refers to the integration of practical exercises, real-life scenarios, and advanced techniques into handgun training to better prepare individuals for the circumstances they may encounter in the field.
Key Components of Applied Pistol Applications
1. Marksmanship Fundamentals
2. Drawing and Presentation
3. Reloading Techniques
4. Malfunction Clearing
5. Movement and Cover
6. Target Transitions and Multiple Threats
Note: Students should have a basic understanding of firearms safety and safe handling prior to attending this course. This is not a beginner type lesson. If you are brand new to shooting, please check out the Handgun Fundamentals Class or contact us for Private Lessons!
