DP2 – Intermediate Defensive Pistol

DP2 builds on the foundational skills learned in DP1. In this 4 hour class, which is entirely on the range, we begin to work the manipulations necessary if you plan to carry a firearm, such as safely and efficiently drawing from a holster, performing emergency and tactical reloads, effectively manipulating the trigger when you have to make a low percentage/high precision shot, and clearing malfunctions. We also incorporate cognitive stress, asking students to process what they are seeing so they can employ the firearm effectively. Finally, we close out the class with data gathering, finding a student’s baseline performance level so we can effectively drive future training.
