Course Details:

• An Introduction Packet will be set to you upon registration. Please look in your inbox (or spam) folder for the link.
• This course is 4 hours long, and is entirely range time (no classroom).
• This course is moderately physically demanding. You will not be asked to push harder than you are able.
• This course includes mild stress induction.
• Trainees will be expected to sign a waiver to partake in class.

 

Trainee Considerations:

• Trainee must be at least 21 years old.
• All trainees are expected to demonstrate care, consideration, engagement in a safety mindset, and the respect and responsibility expected of training with dangerous items.
• Before class, trainees should know and instinctively and actively practice the 4 rules of firearm safety. In other words, this level of safety should be ‘built in’ consciously and subconsciously in your actions and practice.
• PREREQUISITE: Keep and Bear LLC Essential Handgun, NRA Basic Pistol, or similar formal coursework or commensurate experience.
• PREREQUISITE: Keep and Bear LLC Michigan Concealed Pistol, NRA Personal Protection in the Home, USCCA Concealed Carry and Home Defense Fundamentals, or similar formal coursework.
• Female trainees who are pregnant should not take training that involves live fire. Studies are currently indicating that the loud noise associated with firearm discharge is not sufficiently attenuated in the womb, and can result in hearing issues after birth.

 

Equipment Considerations:

• Trainees should bring their concealed carry intent handgun and holster. (NOTE: Supply chain disruptions are currently being experienced affecting ammunition availability. A 22LR pistol and ammunition are currently allowed for this class.)
• 200 rounds of ammunition (class course of fire is typically 150 rounds).
• Trainees are required to have a holster for their firearm. Because of the 1:1 nature of this course, cross draw and shoulder holsters are permitted.
• Holsters that user a retention mechanism actuated by pressing a button with the trigger finger should be avoided.
• If applicable, trainees should have a purposefully manufactured gun belt (a belt from Kohl’s is not sturdy enough!).
• Trainees must have eye protection and hearing protection. Electronic hearing protection is recommended.
• Trainees should bring clothing appropriate for the weather (this course includes range training taking place outdoors). This includes wide brim hat for sun, temperature-appropriate clothing, and footwear suitable for potentially muddy conditions. Female trainees should wear a high collar shirt so that ejected hot brass does not go places it shouldn’t.
• Trainees should bring food and hydration suitable for moderate activity.
• Trainees should bring note taking materials.
