Introduction to Defensive Rifle
Fee: $90
Class: 7 hours
Course Description:
The most effective tool you have available to defend your life and 'stop the bad guy' is the long gun, whether it’s a rifle or a shotgun. In this class, you will learn how to operate your rifle as effectively and efficiently as possible to protect your life, you’re loved ones, your home, and your liberty. This class is vital to anyone who keeps a rifle at home for self-defense or who carries one at work daily (soldiers and LEOs). This class is specific for the following types of military style rifles: AR 15s, AKs, FALs, M1As/M1s, G3s, etc. Any semi-automatic rifle chambered in a common intermediate/short range cartridge is allowed—bring what you have.
