      Cheap (virtual) training opportunity with John Hearne

      Hi all, For the second consecutive year, John Hearne of Two Pillars Training is doing a virtual training over the holidays (Dec 28th). $25 gets you in. I trained in-person with John for 3 days back in September. He's among the best out there, especially in the areas of data/research (link...

      Training opportunity: Rangemaster Pistol Instructor

      Justified Defensive Concepts is hosting Tom Givens in 2024 at Echo Valley in WV for his three day pistol instructor course. This is an excellent course and is not a "pay your $ and you become an instructor" course. You have to pass two different shooting quals and a written test (with a 90% on...

      Training Opportunity: Mas Ayoob "MAG 20"

      Hi all, In prepping for the review I wrote for John Hearne's class, I had to revisit the FPF Training website. I saw that once again they are hosting Massad Ayoob's "MAG 20" class. I've taken this and I know quite a few others here have as well. Definitely a quality course on use of force...

      Great Training Opportunity

      With so many Marylanders finally (legally) carrying, I think a great follow-up class to the MD required coursework is FPF Training's "Street Encounter Skills" class. I'm on record saying this in other threads as well. I have taken both the older one-day and the current two-day versions of...

      Before the "beep". Training for the non-metrics

      Worthwhile, in my opinion, to take the 50 minutes to listen to Craig "Southnarc" Douglas and Jon Hauptman (of Phlster holsters) discuss the importance of things beyond the sub-second draw and 2.0 second Bill Drills. I've mentioned in numerous threads the importance of scenario-based training...

      Mas Ayoob's MAG 20 next month in NoVA

      I know many members here have taken Massad Ayoob's MAG 20 course (I have). However, given the fact that we now have Shall Issue, this class would seem to be even more relevant to Marylanders than ever. People are shelling out $ right now for the required 16 hours, so money may be tight...
