Force on Force
Requires Course Registration Form.
Force on Force is probably the most important training that anyone carrying a handgun for self defense will receive. This is an opportunity to experience the extraordinary stress and speed of a gunfight without anyone going to the hospital or morgue. Paint cartridge weapons and ammunition are utilized to add realism to the training. They function, and feel like a Glock 17, M-4, 870 etc. The impact of the paint rounds, although safe, do sting enough to motivate the students to avoid it. This is the perfect testing ground to validate your training and mind set in as close to a real gunfight situation as anyone wants to experience.
