Carbine Courses

Carbine Essentials

Stripping the carbine of its intimidation, this course equips shooters with simple, repeatable techniques to operate their weapon with confidence. Paralleling our Handgun Essentials curriculum, we focus heavily on the 7 fundamentals of shooting as they apply to the rifle platform. This course goes a bit deeper, covering transitions to handgun and efficient malfunction clearance, all reinforced through hands-on drills.

Carbine in Motion

“Shoot, Move, Communicate”, a phrase echoed in Special Operations units across the Department of Defense. This program delivers practical, high tempo training in carbine handling and combat movement taught by instructors who’ve employed these skills in real world operations. Designed to challenge and refine your fundamentals by integrating movement, speed, elevated heart rate, and precision under stress.

Hybrid Carbine

The Hybrid Carbine course is deliberately challenging and not designed for the novice. Fast-paced and both physically and mentally demanding, it pushes you to think, adapt, and perform under pressure. Continually evolving, our hybrid curriculum keeps you on your toes with dynamic, real-world drills found nowhere else.

Broken Carbine

Nicknamed by students “the course you don’t want to take but the one you need to take,” this intensive, hands-on class dives deep into your carbine’s mechanics and its failure modes. We disassemble each carbine and show you how it works, what breaks and why, and how to fix it in daylight, at night, and on the move. Instructors demonstrate and students will drill responses to all common and uncommon malfunctions, to include effective troubleshooting and immediate actions under stress. Students will leave with and in depth understanding of their weapons system and the confidence to keep their carbine running and in the fight.

Scoped Carbine

This rifle course is designed to develop the skills required to engage targets accurately and effectively at intermediate distances beyond standard carbine capability. Students will learn precision fundamentals, ballistic considerations, optic selection and use, positional shooting, wind reading, and target engagement out to extended ranges. Emphasis is placed on bridging the gap between close quarters carbine work and long range precision shooting, giving students the knowledge and confidence to perform in a designated marksman or overwatch role.

Low Light Carbine

This course opens with a focused lecture on artificial light and practical considerations for both weapon-mounted and handheld light selection. Purpose designed drills cover carbine employment in limited-light conditions with an emphasis on target identification and accurate shot placement. You will be presented with shooting techniques for both weapon-mounted and handheld lights, practice white light discipline, as well as transitions between different light sources.

Carbine After Dark

Carbine After Dark introduces students to the skills and considerations required to operate a carbine effectively under low-light and no-light conditions using night vision goggles (NVGs). Participants will learn NVG setup and integration, both active and passive aiming solutions, Infra-Red (IR) laser zeroing, IR and white light discipline, movement techniques, and safe weapons handling in reduced visibility. The course focuses on building confidence, efficiency, and situational awareness while navigating and engaging targets in the dark, preparing students for the real world application of night vision supported carbine employment.
