CARBINE II — URBAN RIFLE in CLOSE QUARTER BATTLE

Sixteen-Hour Tactical Course 

9:00 AM to 5:00 PM

 

“A Place to Shoot”

33951 San Francisquito Canyon Road, Santa Clarita, CA 91390

 

Objective:  To enhance students’ ability to operate their carbine/tactical rifle against threats at close to intermediate distances.  Participants will learn new shooting and manipulation techniques and engage in challenging, self-defense training scenarios involving movement, negotiating terrain features, working with a partner, and fighting inside of structures.

 

 

Instructors:  Police Sergeant Brian Fitzpatrick (Ret.) — California P.O.S.T. certified patrol rifle instructor — wrote the formal proposal resulting in his agency’s adoption of the AR-15 platform as their department’s patrol rifle.  Brian subsequently served as an instructor during an agency wide transition to the Colt Commando M-4 carbine/patrol rifle.  We guarantee low student/instructor ratios (4-to-1) to insure safety, quality training and individual attention.

  • Firearms Safety Rules — on and off the range
