Rifle Defense Fundamentals is a 7-hour defensive rifle class where proven techniques, hands-on instruction, and real-world legal perspective elevate your level of comfort with a rifle.

Rifle Defense Fundamentals covers topics that apply to people at various stages.

  • Improve your level of comfort handling and shooting your rifle.

    Rifle Defense Fundamentals gives you hands-on practice with instructors right there to guide you. They’ll give you easy-to-understand tips to immediately see improvement and feel more confident with your AR-15.

  • Discover weaknesses in your gun, gear, and technique.

    Rifle Defense Fundamentals gives your gun, gear, and technique a reality check. Training exercises expose weaknesses you might not see at the static range. Is your grip slipping? Is your holster slowing you down? Fixing these problems now, in a safe environment, could save your life later.

  • Practice the necessary yet forbidden skills that most ranges don’t allow.

    Static ranges don’t prepare you for real-life situations. Rifle Defense Fundamentals lets you practice drawing, moving, and how to handle multiple threats, critical skills for personal protection that most ranges won’t allow.

  • Understand how to protect yourself legally, as well as, physically.

    Self-defense isn’t just about shooting. Rifle Defense Fundamentals covers the legal side too. Remember, you’re responsible for every bullet. This class teaches legal accountability and how to react responsibly under pressure, helping protect you both physically and legally.
