Counter Active Shooter Rifle Night - Greenville, South Carolina

COUNTER ACTIVE SHOOTER RIFLE NIGHT - LEVEL 3

Own The Night With Industry Standard Best Practices For Effective Threat Neutralization In Low Light Conditions.
 
Simply put, bad things happen at night. Night Fire - Advanced Rifle will teach you how to be as effective and confident in shooting at night as in daylight. You will learn the fundamentals of adjusting to ambient light, intermittent light and artificial light sources. You will be instructed on how to safely and accurately engage targets through low-light/no-light target discrimination, flashlight/gun light techniques, such as moving from a place of light to darkness. Our Cadre will explain and physically demonstrate each course of fire prior to each drill.
 
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.

• Keep firearms in vehicles. Please take care that when arriving at 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.
