THE MODERN MINUTEMAN CLASS
💥 Long Range Patrol: The Modern Minuteman Class 💥
Long Range Patrol is an advanced field course that prepares civilians for real-world patrolling, reconnaissance, and team operations. Students learn mission planning, movement, communication, and threat response in austere environments where support may not be available. The course builds practical skills and confidence for those who take community defense and readiness seriously.
This class is right for you if:
✅ You believe the next fight could be local and want to be prepared for it.
✅ You want to train beyond the flat range with realistic patrol and field skills.
✅ You’re serious about mission planning, reconnaissance, communications, and ambush tactics.
✅ You understand that outside help may not be available and want to be self-reliant.
✅ You want to develop practical skills for survival, team coordination, and operational readiness.
✅ You are a civilian committed to serious, real-world preparedness rather than hobby-level training.
Prerequisites:
✅ Completion of a basic civilian carbine course from a recognized source
✅ Ability to safely handle a rifle/carbine at all times
✅ A working understanding of your chosen rifle platform (loading, unloading, and basic manipulations will not be a focus in this class)
Fair chance: THIS IS NOT A SUITABLE FIRST CIVILIAN CLASS FOR ANYONE.

Long Range Patrol goes beyond typical range work, focusing on realistic patrolling and operational tactics. Participants will learn mission planning, team organization, communications, and reconnaissance techniques, along with how to respond to threats and ambushes in urban, suburban, and rural environments. The course emphasizes practical skills that translate directly to real-world scenarios, helping students operate effectively when help is not coming.
The class also covers patrol types, support team considerations, and engagement strategies for a variety of scenarios. Students practice moving, observing, and striking in dynamic environments while learning how to coordinate with a team and make critical decisions under pressure. Long Range Patrol is designed for civilians who take personal responsibility for readiness, community defense, and operational competence.
The movements in this class are centered around a 2-man team. Therefore, bring a buddy and save some money! See class options below.

STANDBY
Most Patriot Training classes sell out quickly. However, we frequently have participants who have schedule changes, and cannot make the class they bought for whatever reason. Therefore, we offer a "STANDBY" list. Of course, this does not guarantee you a spot. However, most classes get one or two reschedules - usually the last week right before class.
IF this class sells out, email us and we will put you on standby for the class at no charge. Of course, if a spot opens up, then you will need to act quickly to buy that spot!
REFUND / RESCHEDULE / TRANSFER POLICY
REFUNDS
Patriot Training does NOT offer Refunds.
* Tuition sale is final and is a commitment to train with Patriot Training at the date and time scheduled.
* Tuition paid guarantees your spot in class. Patriot Training does not overbook.
* Your payment secures a spot in a specific class, and nothing more. Patriot Training cannot and does not guarantee individual performance or results. Therefore, failure to pass a course (such as a carry permit evaluation) does not qualify for a refund.
* Patriot Training does not offer refunds, reschedules, or transfers to students who fail to show up for class. If you decide not to attend, that’s your decision.
* This policy is firm and there will be no exceptions.
* Due to safety concerns, all Sig P320 variants are banned from use in class. No refunds will be issued based on this policy.
Why?
- Because if you decide the day before class that you don't like the weather forecast (or insert whatever excuse here), we will not have time to sell that spot to a serious participant that has been turned away.
RESCHEDULE
Long Range Patrol Cannot be rescheduled. This will be the last time it is offered.
LIMITED TRANSFERS
Can't make the class and want to transfer (give/sell) your spot to someone else?
If you want to transfer, sell, or give your seat to someone else, that’s entirely up to you and is fine by us.
You must notify us no later than Thursday, 6:00 pm, prior.
If that person cannot make it, the same no refund policy applies.
CANCELLATIONS
In the unlikely event Patriot Training is forced to cancel a class, refunds and reschedules will be offered.
Patriot Training is proud to partner with Mountain Top Gun & Archery Range for training classes.
