Will Rhino be one of the instructors?

Probably not, but I try not to say "never . . ."

 

[TomN]

Well then I might just have to look into taking this course!

 

[obijohn]

Still ample room in this class. Those of you vehemently requesting training in northern Indiana, this is as far north as ACT will get this year.

This is an excellant class for some you new to defensive pistol training, I took it last fall at Warsaw. Low pressure class and the guys take the Adaptive part of their name very serious. Our class had a wide range of experience levels in it and the guys did a great job of working with everyone at their own skill level but at the same time getting each of us to push ourselves.

If you are not familiar with where the Warsaw Rifle & Pistol Club is, you can get directions at www.wrpclub.org

Should we bring the pistol we normally carry daily? That's the whole point of defensive pistol class, is it not?

 

[Coach]

Should we bring the pistol we normally carry daily? That's the whole point of defensive pistol class, is it not?

Yes. Bring your normal carry gear and set up.

 

[rhino]

Should we bring the pistol we normally carry daily? That's the whole point of defensive pistol class, is it not?

Yes. Bring your normal carry gear and set up.

Agreed, but there are some limitations. You might want to let us know how you carry just in case. Strong side belt or IWB holsters are strongly preferred. Also, your holster should be rigid enough to allow reholstering with one hand (because you'll have to do it many times).

I carry strong side 2:30 - 3 o clock iwb custom henry holster

 

[rhino]

I carry strong side 2:30 - 3 o clock iwb custom henry holster

I'm not familiar with that brand, but it should be fine as long as you can safely holster one-handed.

 

[obijohn]

Not too late to register for this class. Still a couple of spots left.

 

[obijohn]
