Shotgun Courses

Shotgun Essentials

Often overlooked in a firearms landscape dominated by the AR 15, the shotgun remains one of the most prolific and widely distributed platforms in the world. Shotguns were originally developed as sporting guns and require specific techniques when repurposed for tactical use. Pump-action shotguns, in particular, demand deliberate, practiced manipulation techniques. Valued for their ballistic prowess and flexible shot-selection options, shotguns are an excellent choice for many scenarios. Students will leave with a clear understanding of safety and operation, efficient manipulation, shotshell selection and patterning, loading, unloading and malfunctions clearance.

Shotgun in Motion

This hands-on course teaches movement driven shotgun skills for both tactical and everyday environments. Students practice motion based shooting while maintaining strict muzzle discipline and situational awareness. Emphasizing safety and practical repetition, we cover shotgun manipulations, efficient reloads and malfunction clearance, movement patterns, and transitions to handgun. Drills are designed to build speed, accuracy, and confidence allowing you to control the fight while on the move.

Hybrid Shotgun

The Hybrid Shotgun 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.

Low Light Shotgun

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 shotgun 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.
