CLOSE RANGE RIFLE/CARBINE I: SATURDAY, JULY 26, 2025 8AM-4PM
This nation was founded on the principle of a citizenry that owned rifles and had the ability to use them to protect their families, homes, and communities. This course is built on that foundation. We will guide you through the principles of rifle marksmanship, with a focus on close-range distances and the dynamics of employing a rifle/carbine in a protective role in and around your home.
The course will provide a strong foundation in rifle marksmanship, covering fundamentals such as rifle manipulation and mechanics, proper zeroing, understanding mechanical offset and its importance at close range, ready positions, positional shooting, precision marksmanship, and rapid multi-threat engagement.
By the end of this course, you will be more knowledgeable and capable as an Armed Citizen, equipped to defend your home and loved ones.
If you are using a Red Dot or LPVO, back-up sights are highly recommended.
