The goal of Gunset Pistol: Adaptation is to expose you to and equip you with the skills required to survive the unfolding chaos of a gunfight. Typically as citizen self-defenders, we are operating out of an ambush scenario, so we must be able to adapt to the circumstances we find ourselves in, so that we can prevail. We will be shooting from compromised or unfamiliar positions, performing one handed and weak handed manipulations, working recovery tactics and techniques, and challenging you to adapt under stress. This is a challenging course, but one of the most important.
Required Equipment:
– Functional Handgun (and a backup if possible)
– Quality IWB/OWB/AIWB holster. We do not allow any holster with a retention device deactivated by the trigger finger (i.e. Blackhawk Serpa). Your holster must retain it’s shape with the pistol withdrawn. Please do not bring cheap junk holsters or you will not be able to participate in class. If you have any questions about your holster, please contact us. We highly recommend JM Custom Kydex, Tier 1 Concealment, and Keepers Concealment.
– 400 Rounds of quality FMJ ammo.
– Minimum 2 extra magazines (more is better)
– Water/Gatorade and a packed lunch
Suggested Equipment:
– Belt mounted magazine pouch(es)
– Personal IFAK/Trauma Kit (this should be required. If you don’t have one or know how to use a trauma kit, take our Real World Trauma Course ASAP)
– Lawn Chair
– Sunscreen
– Speed loader
