• Shooting positions - standing, kneeling, sitting, prone, and variations.

Expert Rifleman is a class on marksmanship with an emphasis on mid range carbine skills. Because of this, many current and former police, and many current and former military, have initially thought the class to be too "basic" for them. Yet, every single one who was brave enough to put his ego aside and participate in this class, has had nothing but spectacular things to say. Over 50% of the material in Expert Rifleman is not covered or not emphasized properly in most military and law enforcement training. Plus, civilian methods, techniques, and certainly tactics are going to be much different, by default. Come on down and take this class - you'll be glad you did! 

Participation is only open to legal, US Citizens or permanent residents (green card holders) per ITAR (22 CFR §§120-130)

Participation by "prohibited persons" (ie convicted felons) is not permitted.

Ages 11 - 17 welcome with participating parent / guardian.

WHAT THIS CLASS IS NOT:

• This is not a sub-MOA shooting class. Goal here is to shoot 4 MOA. 
• This is not a bench shooting class. We will shoot from actual field positions.

• This class is not "too easy" for a military veteran or law enforcement officer. We will challenge more experienced shooters!
