It's my great pleasure to be able to bring Kerry Davis (Sig Academy, and former Magpul Dynamics Medical instructor) back to Oregon for a class. Kerry teaches a great class, and as much as we love shooting, it's important to learn how to plug the holes we train to make. That said, that's one small aspect of the course, as the curriculum covers a massive breadth of topics applicable to events we may find in our day to day lives regarding saving ourselves and those around us.
