Bring eye and hearing protection in addition to a lunch. No V-neck shirts unless they can be buttoned up to the neck. A kydex holster (paddle or belt loop) is recommended; however, whichever brand you have, it must have positive retention meaning that if you hold the holster upside-down, the gun will stay in. Strong-side, outside-the-waistband holsters only. You need a magazine pouch and at least four magazines; only one pouch is needed for concealment but some configurations have a two-mag pouch which is fine for this course. Your belt needs to be sturdy to hold the holster and gun and not loosen or flop around; a rescue belt is a good option. Please store your ammo separate from your gun during transportation unless you have a concealed carry permit. Stop the Bleed in taught as part of this series.
Defensive Pistol I; $235 - You must first take NRA Basic Pistol (or equivalent) before you can enroll in this course. This course is designed to increase proficiency as a shooter preparing for a defensive pistol situation and is the first of three tactical handgun courses.

Bring your own lunch and drink, handgun, holster, holster belt, eye and ear protection and at least 250 rounds of ammo.
Defensive Pistol II; $285 - Successful completion of Defensive Pistol I is required for enrollment in Defensive Pistol II. This course is 8 hours long and designed to build upon the accuracy and speed from Defensive Pistol I and introduces multiple targets and movement of the defender to the defensive handgun encounter. Transitioning between targets quickly and accurately while the defender moves in order to survive a defensive handgun situation will be taught using various drills to increase the skill set of the defender. Bring your own lunch and drink, handgun, holster, holster belt, eye and ear protection and at least 250 rounds of ammo.
Defensive Pistol III; $335 - Successful completion of Defensive Pistol II is required for enrollment in Defensive Pistol III.

The culminating event is a complex defensive pistol situation using skills from all three courses. Bring your own lunch and drink, handgun, holster, holster belt, eye and ear protection and at least 250 rounds of ammo.
