SUMMARY:Basic Defensive Rifle - Two Day (Midvale\, OH)
DESCRIPTION:Overview\nPrerequisites: Basic Rifle or similar class and familiarity with the operation of your carbine of choice. \nFirearm Requirements: This course is conducted as an NRA America’s Rifle Challenge clinic and\, as such\, the AR-15 is an ideal rifle to bring. Any safe semi-automatic carbine can be used (AK-47\, SKS\, Mini-14\, M1A1\, etc.). \nShooters should have a sling on their carbine (a “tactical” one point or two point sling works well). Magazines & ammunition should be carried in pouches or pockets on a plate carrier\, battle belt or similar rig so they are accessible during drills. Kit up! Test your gear setup! \nEstimated Ammunition Required: 200 rounds/day \nRequired Equipment: \n\nhearing protection\neye protection\nat least two magazines for your carbine (more is better)\nsling for your carbine (single point\, 2-pt or 3-pt adjustable “tactical sling” is recommended)\nlunch (we’ll be staying on the range during lunch break\, see details below on club option)\nwater and something to replace electrolytes (what plants crave)\nsnacks\n\nOptional Equipment: \n\na way to take notes\ncarbine/optic manual(s)\nhat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass)\nknee/elbow pads (we may shoot from kneeling and other positions)\nfolding chair\nsmall tool kit / cleaning kit\n\nClinic Overview: Attendees will experience shooting in multiple firing positions at varying distances and will learn modern defensive shooting skills. Firing in this course will focus on the close quarters environment from contact to 600 yards. The focus is on short range marksmanship with opportunities to make shots at longer distances. \nThis class is moderately physically demanding. We will be on our feet much of the day\, moving between various stations on the range. We will be shooting from different positions throughout the day. \nAttendees should arrive for registration at the club house on Saturday around 8:45 am. Class starts promptly at 9:00! \nTopics of instruction may include the following:\n\nRules for safe gun handling & range rules\nCarbine parts and operation & ammunition\nCarbine zero and trajectory (including which zero to use)\nTailoring the ABCs of firing the shot in the close quarters environment\nFiring Positions: Standing/Kneeling/Prone\, Over Barricade\, Supported/Unsupported\, Field-expedient Rests\nSituational Awareness and Scanning\nMagazine Changes (Emergency\, Administrative/Tactical)\nExecuting Controlled Pairs\nRecoil Management\nClearing Malfunctions/Stoppages\nMovement\nUse of the sling\, rests\, barricades and other field-expedient methods to support shooting stability\nIntroduction to Field Shooting and using the carbine to make hits at long distance\nGear/Kit setup and optimization\n\nCQB ’75 – The Close Quarters Battle at the Jason Russell House\nThe bloodiest battle on the first day of the American Revolutionary War took place on the estate of Jason Russell in Arlington\, MA\, just outside of Boston. Arlington\, at the time\, was known as Menotomy and more colonial militiamen were killed at Monotomy than any other place that day. \nBritish Redcoats were retreating back to Boston after being trounced at Concord’s North Bridge and Merriam’s Corner when they encountered heavy resistance along the road. They’d sent out flanking parties to clear the route and one of those parties captured Russell and several other militiamen in the open. \nHear what happened next as this exciting tale is woven throughout the day’s marksmanship events! \n \n  \nAdditional Information: \nThe club allows for camping/bunking on site for instructors and participants.  You can throw up a tent or bring your cot and a pillow and join us in the club house.  You will have access to the bathrooms in the clubhouse throughout the weekend.  You will also have access to showers and to the kitchen for breakfast and dinner meal prep. \nLunch will be offered by the club for a contribution on Saturday and if there are enough leftovers (usually there are)\, it will be offered again on Sunday. Think dogs\, burgers\, chips and a drink.  Or\, you can pack your lunch of choice. You should also plan to join us for movie night on Saturday on the club’s big screen.  Popcorn provided. \nThere will be a $10.00 range fee for all non-club members. This will be collected at registration on Saturday morning. \nQuestions\, comments\, concerns\, etc.\, please contact the Event Director below. See you on the firing line! \n
