Training Location: Vero Beach, FL Training Facility (Click for Map)

“Experience is something you don’t get until just after you need it.” – Steven Wright

 

 

This course is designed to familiarize students with the principles of room clearing and the various problems they’ll encounter when attempting to clear a structure without the support of a team to cover the various angles they’ll inevitably be exposed to when operating alone. Upon completion of this course, students will have experienced multiple gunfights without the risk inherent in gaining that experience engaging in real-world deadly force encounters. Students will be given a variety of tactics to correctly select from based on their clearly defined mission & any environmental factors that may dictate the use of a particular tactic, technique, or procedure. Training will be conducted in our NLTA Only Shoot-House in various lighting conditions and may also include training evolutions in a vehicle.

All shooting is done with Non-Lethal Training Ammo through Ultimate Training Munitions converted weapon systems. All UTM ammo is included and personal protective equipment will be provided. Some courses of fire are force on paper, while others are force on force, or a mixture of the two. Some reps are completed dry or with Mantis Blackbeard Lasers, while others are opposed with UTM Man Marking Cartridges. All evolutions are recorded from 3 points of view and video is used extensively for after action critique during debrief and after course completion.

Upon completion of this course, students will be invited & encouraged to attend Monthly Solo CQB Sustainment Training that occurs regularly on the 3rd Sunday of every month and offered the opportunity to purchase Mantis Blackbeards at a discounted price.
