Defensive Handgun 1

Where Mechanics Meet Mindset

What you will learn

This isn’t your average intro course. Defensive Handgun 1 breaks down what actually matters in a gunfight—zero fluff, all fundamentals. Whether you're brand new or brushing off some rust, this class locks in the mechanics that carry over when it counts

The draw

Get your gun out sooner—with purpose, not panic. We break down the draw from the ground up: building a master grip, dialing in a consistent index, and getting the gun to the fight using our “90/10” principle. Slow is smooth' belongs on a T-shirt—not in your training.

Malfunctions

Your gun doesn’t always run perfectly—and that’s not a problem if you know what to do. We’ll cover the most common stoppages and walk through simple, no-BS responses. Fix the gun, stay in the fight.

Multiple target engagements 

When there’s more than one threat, every second matters. You’ll learn how to move the gun, lead with your eyes, and get solid hits faster—without rushing. We’ll help you find the balance between control and aggression so you can shoot smart under pressure.

Movement

You’ll learn how to move with intention—not just run around. Train to shoot confidently while moving—and just as confidently when you don’t.

Solid Training
REal Purpose

Defensive Handgun 1 is where mechanics meet mindset—because defensive shooting isn’t about flash, it’s about what works under pressure. You’ll build confidence with a consistent draw, work through real-world malfunctions, and sharpen your movement and transitions with purpose. No egos, no gimmicks—just solid reps in a practical, supportive environment. We’ll see you on the range!
