IRREGULAR WARFARE – SINGLETON OPERATOR: SAT & SUN, DECEMBER 13 & 14, 2025 8AM - 5PM
Irregular Warfare – Singleton Operator is a collaborative effort by Brian Hill of The Complete Combatant and Shane Kerwin of Personal Survival Solutions.
This coursework takes a unique look at operating in a non-permissive/semi-permissive environment, as a singleton, with only a rifle, pistol, and your Combative Mindset.
Course work will begin with students taking an in-depth look and progressing to practical application in the development of a Combative Mindset, various zero distances pros and cons, optimal ammunition choices, zeroing procedures, and associated equipment selection for a variety of environments. Application of the fundamentals of marksmanship will be heavily emphasized with a break down between precision and speed with defining and optimization a working balance of the two, to get comfortable working at a performance level of shooting.
Instruction and drills will be structured to achieve a synergistic relationship between the physical and mental aspects of performance shooting with both a rifle and pistol while negotiating the difficult aspects of working as a singleton in a harsh environment. Establishing and understanding our limitations with both weapons systems will be covered and knowing what action is appropriate to solving unique problems will stress the students to critically think and problem solve different complex problem sets they may encounter. Rifle to pistol transitions, while in a variety of differing equipment will be taught, with engagement from conventional and unconventional shooting positions being emphasized. Students will receive an introductory exposure to all ranges of personal combat from extreme close proximity shooting to extended distances (0-300 yards) with both weapons systems and will gain an understanding to which system is appropriate or that we have to problem solve with what is in our hand(s). What constitutes cover vs. concealment will be taught and how it can be negotiated and utilized to help us gain a tactical advantage.
Additionally, utilization of cover, concealment, and/or barricades will be taught to maximize our ability to gain stability for fast, precise hits on target, while minimally sacrificing our ability to move. Movement and maneuver are our ally when working as a singleton in a harsh environment. Movement and its application to disrupt our opponent’s decision-making cycle while giving us the initiative advantage will be discussed and applied.
Negotiating a harsh environment as a singleton operator is a challenging aspect of combat, but the reality is, is that it is just a problem that needs to be solved. Brian and Shane bring decades of experience in a variety of environments dealing with the deadly problem set of interpersonal conflict as singletons. Let them help you form and develop an Individual Protective System that will build an experiential base to deal with deadly problems, should they arise.
