Requirements

We always get questions on firearm selection.  Will this or that gun work, etc? A handgun that you can get a full two hand thumbs forward grip on is better to learn shooting skills. You can always transition to a smaller carry gun once you have the skills. We have found that students tend to fight a small gun too much and not grasp the concepts of the exercises.

  • Handgun - Full sized semi-auto is recommended. Revolvers and pocket guns will not work.
  • Ammunition - 200 rounds (you can shoot more)
  • FMJ (no steel core)
  • Extra Magazines - 2 to 3 if your magazine holds 10 or more, 3 to 5 if your magazines hold less than 10 rounds.
  • Magazine Pouch - 1 to 2
  • Eye & Ear Protection
  • Holster (OWB)
  • Brimmed Hat
  • Close-toed Shoes 
  • Rain Gear
  • Sunscreen
  • Bug Spray
  • Thick Belt
