    Our next Intro to Defensive Rifle (DR101) class will be held on Saturday20MAY17 near Terre Haute, Indiana. This class is intended for individuals who keep a rifle for potential defensive use. Most civilian defense situations will occur at relatively close range (less than 50 yards) and the dynamics of close quarters use of the rifle differ considerably from longer range engagements. Any fully-functional, centerfire repeating rifle or carbine will suffice for this class, but a self-loader is recommended.

    TO REGISTER: Send EMAIL to john@adaptiveconsultingandtraining.com

    Some of the topics addressed include:


    • SAFETY! SAFETY! SAFETY!
    • Attitude and the commitment to protect yourself and those in your care
    • Stopping threats and how to do it more efficiently; ammunition selection
    • Configuring the rifle and related gear for your own needs

    Already getting questions about the prerequisite class. In general, if you can safely handle your rifle and hit a 6" square on demand from 10m, you should be fine. Just send me a pm or an email and we can talk about the prereq.

    I'm probably in for this. Haven't had a chance to train with my AK yet.

    Probably will be a week or two for me to sign up John, I'm currently trying to relocate to North Carolina and am juggling visits down there on the weekends. Once I know for sure I'm free I will commit.

    Cool, you are on the list. Maybe I'll run my AK that day also.

    Need to point out that this is not an AR centric class. Any reliable repeater is welcome. Good chance to try out that pistol caliber lever gun.
