Important Information
The Extended Core Skills Saturday is delivered as professional firearms training. All participants must follow instructor directions and range safety procedures throughout the session. Progression to the Sunday Session or other advanced courses depends on demonstrated safe performance, instructor assessment, eligibility and available places.
Training Standard
Strong fundamentals are not optional. This session is designed to build safe habits, sound weapon handling and consistent shooting mechanics before any student moves on to more demanding work.
You will not be rushed into advanced drills before you are ready. The focus is on doing the basics properly, receiving direct coaching and leaving the range with a clearer understanding of your current standard and next training step.
