GF Carbine 2
There are three levels of training with long guns for gunfights; Gunfighthing with a Carbine 1 (GFC1), GFC2 and GFC3 . The main difference between the levels is tempo. In the Carbine 1 class we go the slow to ensure everyone is SAFE, and everyone is learning the subject matter. In the Carbine 2 course we speed up the tempo somewhat, and in Carbine 3 class is high tempo. Rimfire (.22 lr) firearms are OK to bring if you want instead of shooting a more expensive caliber. However, .22 lr will only provide a portion of the total experience. They recoil much less (we won’t be able to diagnose any for your “stance” issues), the manual of arms is typically different, they are not as reliable, and the trigger is almost always way different than you gun you have for home or self defense.
Class is approximately 6-8 hours long – tuition = $185.00
