CombativeShooting24.png

The entangled gunfight (coined by Craig Douglas of Shivworks) is a thing. It's the combination of having to do two, fully committed actions simultaneously or back to back - physically fight AND having to draw the handgun and shoot fast and accurately. Kelly first noticed this gap in performance while serving in a SMU (special mission unit) during the early 90's and developed this course specifically to provide a solution. The course is typified by struggling and shooting, striking and shooting, fighting and shooting. It has been called "the most eye-opening firearms course I've taken" by many previous students. 

You will need 750 rounds of ammunition, a serviceable pistol, rigid holster, three magazines, magazine carrier, belt and personal protective equipment (hearing and eye protection).

"When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail..." Ever hear that before? More and more people who rely on either a knife or a gun exclusively for their personal protection are finding themselves jammed up for introducing a lethal weapon into a situation that is inappropriate for that level of force. In policing, the term is "lawful but awful" shootings. Use of an inappropriate level of force usually stems from having few or marginal unarmed skills and ONLY having a lethal weapon on your person.

Long called "bridge weapons" (because they bridge the gap between verbal warn-offs and lethal force), there are myriad devices available for people who want to ensure their personal safety and security. Some are gadgets, some are gimmicks and some have real merit. Others may be effective but HIGHLY illegal. Come to this course and learn the difference between them. Kelly's Paladin Press video "Maximum Effect, Minimum Damage" was a best seller for a reason. 

In this course you will learn about and use: saps and other impact tools, aerosol irritants, electronic devices, pocket sticks, brass knuckles and much, much more. Don't be dumb, don't just carry a hammer...

CALLING ALL GEEZERS! If you're an old brokedick and don't feel confident in your ability to protect yourself any longer due to your age (over 50 only in this class), or previous injuries, or diminishing athleticism or just recent inactivity THIS IS THE COURSE FOR YOU. We adapt techinques for use by people with limited range of motion, and will work with you to identify powerful, effective "go-to's" that are appropriate for older people. We always get contacted by older people who don't feel they can identify an appropriate "entry point" to learning how to defend themselves later in life. THIS IS IT! And taught by geezer Kelly and some other really proficient geezers! Come get you some!
