Date & Time
Sat, Oct 7 at 8:00 AM – Sun, Oct 8 at 5:00 PM CST
Location
Ben Franklin Range
….
Templeton, PA 16259
Description
Availability: 16
Time Commitment: Two 8-10 hour days
Course Focus:
Day 1: Live Fire CQB Marksmanship
Students will learn all applicable weapons handling for a CQB environment, as well as accuracy while moving as it applies to CQB. This will be in a flat range environment and is NOT a “live fire CQB” course. At the end of this course, students will be able to accurately and rapidly engage targets with multiple rounds at CQB distances with rifle and pistol.
Day 2: Intro To Flexible Search
Learning the basic principles that drive all sound methodology, and then working on individual methods of movement and working angles, etc. Course is principles based and not on any one specific doctrine of clearance. Students will learn about multiple solutions to problems, including Limited Penetration, Strong Wall, POD, IBT, and others. Students will start at the most basic repetition and work up to clearance of adjoined rooms, with the ability to choose methods based on their environment and “mission”. Force on paper only, no live fire. At the end of this course, students will be able to effectively clear two conjoined rooms, while dealing with dead space, open and closed doors, and shoot/no-shoot targets.
*** WE HIGHLY SUGGEST YOU BUNK ON SITE AND PACK A LUNCH. BFR has fantastic on site lodging for 12. Contact BFR for reservations***
