Volusia County Gun Club

This class is focused primarily on more experienced shooters who do have previous pistol courses. The class will cover shooting from inside and around a full-size vehicle. This is a combat related course which teaches the student proper utilization of a vehicle as a piece of “cover.” The definition of cover is an object which can adequately stop rounds from a firearm, not merely something to “hide” behind.
Each student will be evaluated on weapons handling and manipulation skills so that they become comfortable and competent with the firearm. A large portion will be dedicated to fundamentals of cover and shooting in and around that cover. This will build a solid foundation which will allow for future advanced training.
The students will fire the appropriate amount of rounds (based on each shooters level) to enable them to be competent with speed and accuracy as well as magazine reloads which engaged with a target from various firing positions.

NOTE: This is a highly physical course which will involve moving quickly on foot, bending, kneeling and lying prone behind a vehicle. Anyone with significant limitations to do these activities should consider this carefully.

Here’s What You’ll Learn
How to safely & efficiently manipulate your pistol inside of a vehicle.
How to efficiently engage targets from inside a vehicle.
How to utilize a full size vehicle as cover and practice numerous firing positions while engaged with multiple threats.
How to accurately engage and shoot targets at varying distances
How to improve your gun-handling skills on your own, inclusive of combat magazine reloads.
