This course takes the path of first defining where each student stands as a shooter AND as a fighter with the gun. Through thoughtfully designed drills, each student will be able to diagnose individual issues and problem areas. Drills gradually and progressively will take students from the square one way range shooting realm into a much more complex and chaotic realm of a gunfight. Attributes and components of the distinct stages of actions within the gunfight will be introduced in order to not only evaluate and diagnose, but to expose dogmatic habits that impede ones ability to fight.

This advanced class will build on the fighting fundamentals learned from AKnowledge: The Fundamentals. The focus will be on developing more robust fighting skills that accommodate students shooting competency.

In this class we will use the progression of drills designed to impart fundamental understanding AND practical skills of WHY we do WHAT we do. The WHY will transform and fine tune the HOW of the process.

All six basic functional components of rifle craft- safety, magazine change, charging bolt, trigger, sights and sling- will be explained in detail and most practical and efficient ways of using them will be practiced.

Shooting drills will be structured to emphasize fighting applications.
