SUMMARY:Low Light Defensive Encounters: Saturday\, December 13
DESCRIPTION:Low Light Defensive Encounters\n6pm Saturday\, December 13 at Deep50 Range\n“There’s no such thing as ‘street crime’ for the armed citizen\, rather\, there’s only ‘parking lot crime’.” – Tom Givens \nNighttime and other low light situations limit our ability to spot trouble before it becomes a problem for us. This is just one of the many reasons why crooks use it to their advantage\, and prey on innocent people under the cloak of darkness.  \nUnfortunately\, there are a lot of myths around how a low light environment works for and against those who would do us harm. The vast majority of low light instruction comes from a military or law enforcement background\, using techniques which may or may not be applicable to the armed citizen.  \nThis class\, however\, is designed to give the armed citizen the knowledge and skills they need to come out on top of an encounter in an urban low light environment.  \nTopics covered will include:  \n\nDifferent types of lighting environments and how they affect our vision\nLow light vs no light: Which is more common for the armed citizen?\nGear choices for when it gets dark \nNight sights\, weapon lights\, lasers and red dots \nDefensive flashlight techniques \nDefensive pistol use in a low light environment \n\n \nMandatory training requirements for this class.  \n\nCompletion of at least six hours of post-concealed carry class training\nAbility to draw a pistol from a holster and safely re-holster using one hand\nConstant and consistent application of the four rules of gun safety\n\nGear requirements for this class \n\nA modern\, semi-automatic pistol in 9mm or greater caliber with or without a weapon-mounted light attached \nAt least three magazines for your pistol\nA belt magazine pouch \nA secure and stable gun belt \nA safe and comfortable OWB (outside the waistband) holster for your pistol (IWB and concealed carry ONLY with instructor permission)\nA headlamp flashlight with a red lens and white light\nA bright (300 lumens or greater) tactical flashlight with a tail-mounted activation switch\n200 rounds of FMJ ammunition \nOptional: A rifle\, pistol caliber carbine or shotgun with a weapon-mounted light and 50 rounds of ammunition (rifle/PCC) or 20 rounds of birdshot (shotgun)\nBug spray\, water\, range gear. \n\nClass will be approximately 4-5 hours long and will be held at the Deep50 Gun Range.  \nSpread The Word:ShareFacebookEmailTwitter

SUMMARY:Florida Concealed Carry: Saturday\, January 17th.
DESCRIPTION:Intro To Defensive Pistol\n\n\n9am\, Saturday\, January 17th at Deep50 Range\nThe government of Florida has rolled back some of its more invasive laws and now allows for both permit-free carry (aka Constitutional Carry) and open carry of a defensive firearm. \nCool. \nHowever\, just because these behaviors are now allowed doesn’t grant Florida residents any special insight as to how to carry a defensive firearm. That’s where I come in. \n\n\n\n\nMy name is Kevin Creighton\, and I run Quietly Armed. I am a full-time professional firearms writer for the National Rifle Association\, and I teach firearms training in the Naples area. I am not your typical “fly by night” firearms instructor. I put in the time and energy into my classes in order to make sure you receive the best possible instruction. Here’s just a few of things that set my classes apart from the others: \nThe state of Florida requires an instructor to have just 24 hours of training before they can teach a concealed carry class.\nI have over 1\,100 hours of firearms instruction.  \nState law says that if you can pull the trigger of a gun and make the gun go “bang!\,” you have enough training to defend your life.\nI teach you how to place your shots on-target when literally everything depends on your marksmanship. \nOther instructors talk about their military or law enforcement experience.\nThat’s great\, but how is that relevant to you in your daily life? \nI’m just like you. I enjoy the relaxed lifestyle we have here in Naples\, and I want you and your loved ones to keep enjoying your lives and to keep you safe from those who would do us harm. This class will cover: \n\nMethods of Concealed and Open Carry\nFlorida Firearms Law\nPersonal Safety Tips\nChoosing A Defensive Firearm\nBasic Pistol Marksmanship\n\nClass is limited to 12 students maximum \nStudents will qualify for not only their Florida concealed carry permit\, but have a chance to practice other tests and drills as well. \nIf you want to take advantage of the newly-recovered freedoms we have in the Florida in the safest possible way\, I urge you to sign up for this class today.  \nIf you choose to apply for a concealed carry permit (and there are many good reasons to do so\, even with Constitutional carry)\, this class qualifies you to do so. \nSee you at the range! \n\n\nSpread The Word:ShareFacebookEmailTwitter

SUMMARY:Diagnostic Pistol: Saturday\, June 13\, 1pm
DESCRIPTION:Most gun owners go to the range to have a good time and put rounds into the target. Some shots go right where they aimed them\, some do not. Most gun owners accept that fact\, say “That’s good enough” and move on with their lives.  \nThis class is not for them.  \nThis class is for the people who don’t accept “That’s good enough” as being good enough. It’s not enough for them to hit paper\, they want to be able to make the shot on-demand\, under high levels of stress.  \nClass Date: Saturday\, June 13th\, 1pm at Deep50 Range\nThis class will show you how to diagnose the errors in your pistol marksmanship and give you insights on how to correct them in real-time. If you’re tired of beach-ball sized groups on your target and want to start shooting softballs (or even ping-pong balls)\, this is the class for you. \nTopics Covered In This Class \n\nImproving Your Grip \nIsolating The Trigger Press \nInformation vs Urgency\nThe Importance of Tracking Your Sights \nRecoil Control \nThe Vision Thing \nCalling Your Shot\nTest And Evaluation \n\nThis class is four hours long and requires 250 rounds of ammo. Class size will be topped at just six people to allow plenty of opportunities for 1-1 instruction.  \nSkill Level:\nIntermediate  \nGear Required:  \n\nDefensive pistol with holster (No SERPA or nylon holsters)\, 9mm or larger caliber\nThree or more magazines \nMagazine pouch \n250 rounds of practice ammunition \nEye and ear protection\, water\, sunscreen\n\nIf there are any questions\, please email me at kevin@quietlyarmed.com.  \nSpread The Word:ShareFacebookEmailTwitter

SUMMARY:Defensive Carbine 1: Saturday\, July 11th\, 1pm
DESCRIPTION:Intro to Defensive Carbine\nOnce vilified as an “assault weapon\,” the AR-15 is\, in fact\, a very effective tool for home defense. Light\, easy to handle and with little appreciable recoil\, it can be quickly adapted to fit each user in ways other rifles cannot. \nThis four hour class will cover the application of an AR-15 to the thorny problem of home defense. Students will learn how to optimize their defensive carbines for use inside the home\, how to use a sling\, as well as learn which accessories are “must haves” for a home defense carbine. This class is specifically designed for all the gun owners out there who bought an AR-15 in the past few years for home defense (a good idea) but then don’t know what the next step is. Well\, this is it. \nIn addition to this\, the class will cover the different types of close-quarters optics and how to keep your rifle in the action. \nClass Date: Saturday\, July 11th\, 1pm at Deep50 Range\nThe live-fire portion will cover zeroing your gun\, understanding and overcoming mechanical sight offset and speed and accuracy at common home defense distances. \n\nHistory and operation of the AR-15\nAdvantages and disadvantages of the AR-15 for home defense\nChoosing an optic for your rifle\nOther accessory choices\nSetup and sling use\nStance\, grip and sight alignment\nZeroing your sighting system\nEngaging targets at common self defense distances\nUse of cover\n\nSpread The Word:ShareFacebookEmailTwitter
