Shotgun Skills

Our flagship class, Shotgun Skills has been in continuous evolution for decades. Based around the Push-Pull method of recoil control that Rob began teaching in the 1980s, it has become the Gold Standard for shotgun training. We’ve trained thousands of Federal, State, and Local LE students and civilian shooters over the last 30 years. We strive to keep the content current in regards to advances in technique, equipment and ammunition. One thing that has remained firmly in place is our commitment to producing students who can safely, competently, and confidently operate their shotguns.  At the end of the two-day program, a student will possess a comprehensive skill set that allows them to utilize the shotgun in a variety of circumstances.
General topics include recoil management, ammunition selection, shotgun modifications and accessories, slug transitions, patterning and much more.

Advanced Shotgun

 

After many requests for a program that goes beyond Shotgun Skills and tests the students’ mastery of the fundamentals, we developed Advanced Shotgun.  A fast-paced program that allows the student to explore the limits of their skills while holding them to a high degree of accuracy accountability, AS is the next level in defensive shotgun training. Through the use of carefully selected shooting drills and time/accuracy standards, students test the limits of their ability and equipment. The focus is on performance under pressure.
Completion of our Shotgun Skills course or a recognized program of a similar nature is a prerequisite for this class.

 

Law Enforcement Shotgun

This program takes key points from our open-enrollment shotgun classes and applies them to a law enforcement role, with a strict emphasis on accuracy and safe movement. This class can be customized for length and content to meet agency requirements and desires.
