November 18th – Advanced Training 7: More Force on Force Scenarios
NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER
Every November we take a break from live fire classes at the A-Zone, due to requests from our range neighbors and the start of deer season. I’ll be teaching a Monday evening (November 6th) Low Light Shooting class for the Snook chapter of A Girl and a Gun. The event is open to everyone (men and women). Pre-registration is required, via the KR Training website. And due to student requests I’ve added a session of the Advanced Training 7 “More Scenarios” force on force course on November 18th. I’ll be working on my Historical Handgun book during the fall and winter also.
KR TRAINING ON THE ROAD AND ONLINE
Karl and Dave Reichek will attend the Rangemaster Instructor Conference in Oklahoma Nov 11-12. Karl will travel to El Paso to take a one day handgun class from legendary trainer John Farnam in December, and Tracy Becker will attend the MAG-120 with Massad Ayoob in Florida in December. I’ll also be a guest host on the Handgun World Podcast, filling in for Bob Mayne. You can also hear Tracy on the Polite Society Podcast every episode.
2018 CLASSES
We have guest instructors scheduled every month from January through June in 2018, and I’ll be making several trips out of state to teach Historical Handgun, other classes, and be an invited trainer at multiple national conferences. Next month I’ll be announcing class dates for our in-house classes for the first half of 2018. If you have any requests for specific courses, let me know.
