The SPEER Gold Dot Rifle Ammunition Add from the October issue of Guns & Weapons For Law Enforcement Magazine features our Grail Rifle.




The Carbine Rifle is becoming more popular in the urban setting due to its great accuracy capabilities, and generally it is easier to shoot for most people due to its lack of recoil. This lack of recoil, combined with greater accuracy, make it a favorite among shooters. At the end of this course attendees will have confidence that they can shoot at something and hit it, and not be intimidated by recoil. Students will learn proper foundations, maintenance, employment, ammunition selection, mechanics and manipulation. This course is designed to hone basic fundamentals while teaching individual tactics and techniques. Movement shooting will be added and stressed. Students will deal with a multitude of different targets at varying distances, and learn to shoot from cover and concealment from twelve-plus different shooting positions. Multiple targets will challenge even the experienced operator. Proficiency will be stressed, as well as reloads, and malfunction clearing.

Quoted: Looks like I won't.  Decided I have other immediate needs for my budget.  Sucks too b/c this means I won't be able to make Urban Tactics II next spring.

Urban Tactics-2 will most likely be late summer or early fall of 2009, so don't sweat it as of yet.  We will most likely be doing another spring time Tactical Carbine-1 course in Illinois, and we always have one in Minnesota.
