What's available in the way of one on one 'tactical' training in MS?

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What's available in the way of one on one 'tactical' training in MS?

Posted: 7/26/2017 8:25:41 AM EDT

I have an odd work schedule that helps me miss everything, from gun shows to Appleseed shoots. Is there any place or anyone in MS that I could go to for a half day or one day course for pistol or carbine training? I've thought about trying to get someone 'big' down here for a class, like Falla, Haley or the Warrior Poet but I'd probably end up being the only one there, if I could make it at all :D. Thoughts gentlemen, and ladies?

I only allow people fatter than me into my tacticool classes. Unfortunately, that limits my potential students to a select few.

This place helped out a local charity event one year. I have not taken a course with them and I am not affiliated. Prices don't seem that bad.

Well, I would recommend giving him a shout. Mike spends a good bit of time overseas so has to plan stuff a bit out. But, he has several curricula that might line up with what you want.

There has to be someone closer to you than Miker and I.

Always glad to hear someone wants to learn.

I signed up for the MCTA news and it said I get a free range day so I'm going to go down on Aug 16 or so and check them out. I'll try to get an idea of what they can offer that can't be articulated on a web page. Apparently the head guy is a SBS guy so he SHOULD be GTG. The last time I was able to attend a "formal" training event was in 2008 and I had to drive to Moyock NC for that one, AND take an additional 5 days off work pas my normal 14 at the time. The class WAS taught by Jason Falla so I call it even steven

They are closed on weekdays except to members. They are only open to the public on weekends. I would suggest giving Mike an e-mail or contacting him on the FaceBook before you come down. He is a security contractor and spends a good bit of time out overseas. He has ROs that run the range on weekends.

I went through his Gunfighter 101 class (an advanced rifle/pistol class) and my wife went though his Woman's Pistol class.

Short video I made of the Gunfighter 101 class.

Of course my work schedule saw that I couldn't make anything that was scheduled this year so far. With 8 days at home per month my play time gets really thin. Next year I MAY be changing to a day for day schedule so I'll have anywhere from 14-20 days off at a time. MCTA is the closest training center to me and I thing I read that they offer....unconventional training schedules, so I may look harder into that. I appreciate all the info provided so far.

You can do one on one training with the Ragsdales at Elite. I have several times. They are very legit.
