What:
This course will be two days of the most realistic training available in the USA. Having direct first-hand knowledge of how to use whatever skill, tool or gear you are counting on to save your life is not only wise, it is critical. Theory, book / video training is all well and good, but how will you and your equipment really perform?  How do you know? How do you find out?  This course will teach and test you, allow you to really assess your equipment, your preconceptions and your limitations all under the supervision of Instructors / subject matter experts from US Marine Corps, US Army and UK Military. This course is not a traditional “survival” course, no learning to start fires with sticks or make fishing hooks from bones, this is a SHTF fighting, moving and surviving using all the tools you have on your back course.

Why?
Florida Firearms Training recognizes the advantage of teaching using an experience-based form, as opposed to just sitting in a classroom and listening to a lecture. Students become part of the exercise and are made to LIVE the scenarios, make decisions and practically apply skills. This course will provide a foundation for those with an interest in learning necessary skills to survive a real world “Bug Out” situation. The course is comprised of scenario-based training, practical application and classroom time to immerse the student in a simulated environment. Students will live/work/train with other students on a private 80 acre training facility for two days and one night. The curriculum covers unit defense, decision-making & problem solving, land navigation, living outside, camp set up, how to set up a safe location to spend the night or a few nights and defend it, introduction to tactical medicine, tactical movement, moving through your environment in a tactical and safe manner close quarters battle (CQB), patrolling, vehicle convoys or single vehicle movement, how to set up your vehicle to get out of dodge, on foot movement, patrolling, and single and group tactics.
