ABOUT THIS EVENT


Date & Time

Breacher is the ultimate opportunity to master your shotgun and test its limits. This event kicks off with safety procedures, weapon familiarization, and dry fire. Participants will learn how to engage man sized targets at distance using slugs, then quickly swapping ammo on the move for 00 buck at close range. Firing from cover, ammo swapping, weapon transitions, and movement will all be extensively covered, while building operator confidence for the final qualification shoot.

Unique to the Breacher event, participants will have to pass a standardized qualification shoot with a score of 70% to earn their GORUCK Breacher patch. Following qualification there will be an “introduction to breaching" block of instruction where students will have the opportunity to breach hollow core doors, dead bolts, tumblers, and hinges with the use of breaching ammunition.

Breacher is an advanced shotgun course and not recommended for beginners. We recommend taking Counter Terror Rifle prior to Breacher.

Due to the space and safety requirements needed to conduct these events the ranges may be up to a two hour drive from the city listed. Please keep this in mind when making lodging arrangements.

The duration of this course runs 8-10 hours.

All GORUCK Firearms Courses and Events utilize scenario based training which is incorporated into dry practice prior to any live fire. All participants will practice target identification and discrimination, movement, weapons manipulation, and other dynamic drills with the cadre and others. These drills will be facilitated with inert weapons enabling a safe and realistic training environment. Both pistols and rifles will be rendered inert with barrel/chamber blocking plugs. Further, each student must fully participate in dry practice prior to commencing live fire.

  • Firearms Training utilizes semiautomatic pistols, however, we offer custom classes on any and all small arms. Full-Frame pistols are recommended. Sub-Compact pistols are not recommended.
  • SERPA-style holsters not authorized. Due to the nature of the training offered and the repetitive drawing and holstering of firearms, SERPA style holsters are not authorized for GORUCK Firearms training courses. If you do not have an alternative holster available, one may be provided with advanced notice.
  • Keep firearms in vehicles. Please take care that when arriving to training sites, participants are not to remove from their vehicles or otherwise handle firearms until instructed to do so by the event cadre. In an effort to enforce good firearms safety and best practices, we would ask that firearms remain in vehicles until specifically told to bring them out.
