Designed to teach students who are striving to become better handgun armorers, this class will not be a repeat of the same certification recertification class. Since Glock no longer offers their 2-day advanced armorer class outside of Georgia, this class provides a local opportunity to advance your handgun smithing abilities.
Emphasizes a comprehensive class with Day 1 covering firearm history and development, safety, cycle of operation, troubleshooting, components and field stripping, and preventative maintenance. Day 2 continues with advanced troubleshooting piston and gas guns, full disassembly and reassembly, and wear component measurement and gauging. Day 3 culminates the training with live-fire rifle zeroing accompanied with live-fire rifle troubleshooting and gas system tuning followed by a practical armorer certification examination on all concepts presented through the 3 days.
Students will be introduced to Basic SWAT topics and tactics, such as history, team-building and legal issues; room clearing, firearms (handgun and rifle), shield work, less-lethal, armor and chemical agents. This course is hands-on and high intensity; utilizing force-on-force and scenario-based training.
The Low Power Variable Optic (LPVO) is a versatile, high-performance optical sight. It offers adjustable magnification settings, allowing officers to quickly switch between a broad field of view for close-quarters engagements and higher magnification for extended distance engagements. An LPVO can aid in target identification and more accurate fire at further distances than non-magnified sights. In this course students will have the opportunity to engage targets at distances of three yards to 300 yards, steel and moving targets and shoot from around vehicles.
Decision making under extreme stress is one of the most crucial, and often times, one of the most critiqued aspects of law enforcement today. Topics such hostage or civilian rescue, officer down rescue, and vehicle engagements are oftentimes exclusively taught and trained to specialty units when in reality, patrol officers encounter these situations more frequently. In this class, officers will be exposed to hostage rescue drills and techniques, officer down rescue techniques, advanced vehicle dynamics and engagements, and critical decision making under stress using non-lethal training ammunition. Mental preparation, exposure to the techniques, and repetition of the techniques taught are the only ways to bridge the gap between training and real life thus reducing undesirable outcomes.
Protection Security Details have become an intricate part of modern law enforcement missions. Escort of witnesses, high profile individuals or security for high-risk events challenge agencies yearly. The Protection Security Detail for Law Enforcement training provides the tools and tactics for planning, managing and movements currently utilized by the US Secret Service and various state and local tactical teams. This training will provide the ability to conduct low, medium and high-risk protection details for uniform patrol, plain clothes and tactical team officers.
Helps to demystify silencers as the history of silencers, the various types, designs, materials, and styles of silencers will be discussed. Also, the process for selecting a silencer, purchasing processes and paperwork, mounting, and cleaning and preventative maintenance procedures are presented. The class then transitions to the range for demonstrations of various types of rimfire, handgun, and rifle silencers. Range demonstrations will also present some of the common types of silencer/firearm malfunctions and problems that can occur with certain firearms.
This course reviews DOJ standards and teaches advanced patrol-level techniques for active shooter response and tactical building clearing. It covers single-officer to six-officer entry, room and hallway movement, and effective search tactics. Training includes live-fire exercises with portable doors and drills in real buildings using marking cartridges (engaging paper targets for shot accountability). The focus is on enhancing officers’ tactical proficiency when entering structures for searches or armed suspect engagements, with an emphasis on rifle use as the primary weapon.
