Defensive Handgun 2
Beyond Basics, Built for Purpose
What You'll Learn:
Defensive Handgun 2 takes the foundation from Level 1 and levels it up with deeper reps, sharper thinking, and more complexity—all in a supportive, ego-free environment. If you’ve built your mechanics, now it’s time to put them to work with purpose under pressure. This course is designed to reinforce what you’ve learned, challenge how you apply it, and give you reps that actually mean something. You’ll leave with more confidence, stronger skills, and a clearer sense of what real-world handgun work looks like.
One-Hand, Still in the Fight
Your grip isn’t guaranteed in a defensive encounter—so we train for that. This block sharpens your ability to shoot strong- and support-hand only, manage recoil, and stay accurate with less than ideal conditions. You’ll also learn one-handed reloads so you can stay in the fight even when one hand is down.
Cover
In Defensive Handgun 1, you learned how to shoot from behind cover. Now we go deeper. You’ll work on getting to cover, using it effectively, and understanding how distance and positioning buy you time. This block builds the habit of treating your environment like a tool—not just a backdrop.


Think Fast, Shoot Smart
Every target isn’t a green light. You’ll be faced with both shoot and no-shoot targets and have to make real-time decisions under pressure. This is where accuracy meets judgment—and your reps get smarter.
Fix It or Fail
Clearing malfunctions and reloading doesn’t mean much until you’re doing it under stress. In this block, we add time pressure, awkward positions, and limited use of your hands to push those skills further. You’ll fix problems fast—from cover, with intent—because hesitation is a luxury you won’t have.
