SUMMARY:NRA CCW Instructor Certification Course
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The goal of the NRA CCW Instructor Certification Course is to equip firearms trainers with the knowledge\, skills\, and attitude necessary to teach others how to safely and responsibly carry a concealed pistol for personal protection. NRA CCW is a newly-developed curriculum that builds on the fundamentals taught in the NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting Course and puts those skills into a defensive context for private citizens who carry concealed handguns. The CCW Instructor Certification Course is 16 hours in length (over two days)\, with a significant portion of the class spent on the range.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][/vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” active_section=”12″ collapsible_all=”true”][/vc_tta_accordion][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”course-details”][vc_column_text]This course teaches firearms trainers how to deliver the NRA’s CCW lesson plans. The lesson plans include the following topics (which instructor candidates will learn to teach): \n\nReview from NRA Basic Pistol or TN Handgun Carry Permit class\n\ngun safety rules\nproper operation of revolvers and semi-automatic pistols\nFundamentals of marksmanship\nammunition knowledge and selection\n\n\nholster selection\ndifferent carry modes\ndrawing from a holster (open and concealed)\ndefensive mindset\ndefensive accuracy and flash sight picture\nemergency reloading\nmalfunction clearances\none-handed shooting\nshooting from moderate distances (10-15 yards)\nshooting with a timer\nand much more!\n\nThe course concludes with a written instructor candidate exam and a shooting qualification drill. Small classes ensure low student-to-instructor ratios for lots of individualized attention.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”equipment-list”][vc_column_text]Instructor candidates will need: \n\na quality defensive handgun\na properly-fitted holster and belt\nat least two spare magazines or speed-loaders (and a method of carrying them on your person)\nroughly 200 rounds of ammunition\na cover garment for concealment\nanything you need to keep yourself comfortable in the elements (we’ll spend several hours on an outdoor range)\n\nFeel free to contact us for questions about equipment requirements\, and please let us know in advance if you will need to purchase ammo from us so we can make sure we’re sufficiently stocked. \nNote on Ammo:\nWe are mindful of the current ammunition shortage. We will do our very best to be conservative with ammo consumption throughout this course. The round count in the equipment list is a generous estimate\, and we hope to avoid having to use all of it. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Course Length” tab_id=”course-length”][vc_column_text]The NRA CCW Instructor Certification course lasts two full days (roughly sixteen hours total)\, with a significant portion of the class spent on the range for live-fire drills.

SUMMARY:Concealed Carry: Street Encounter Skills and Tactics (John Murphy)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]CSA is excited to welcome John Murphy of FPF Training\, who is traveling from Northern Virginia to offer his flagship course\, Concealed Carry: Street Encounter Skills and Tactics. In this immersive two-day class\, John starts by sharpening fundamental pistol and holster skills\, and then he uses practical exercises test students’ skills in realistic decision-making contexts.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nConcealed Carry: Street Encounter Skills and Tactics is a 2.5 day\, 24-hour course designed to inform and instruct lawfully armed citizens in their defensive decisions and equip them with realistic skills that enable an effective and lawful approach to personal security. Employing a highly dynamic combination of lecture\, demonstration\, and practical application\, the course goes past the concentration on shooting skills that most concealed carry classes focus on and provides a combination of “hard” and “soft” skills and strategies “beyond the gun” that opens minds and options for armed citizens. \nThe class consists of four hours of “view ahead” video content\, followed by four hours of lecture and practical application on Saturday\, and then six hours of intensive pistol skills. Sunday is 100% range time incorporating those lessons in a challenging and PRACTICAL live fire environment. Your mind will be educated on how to use your mind\, mouth\, your feet to achieve situationally appropriate de-escalation or use of force. \nSpecific course content and methodology relies heavily on incorporating the science of “Recognition Primed Decisions”\, deriving lessons from security videos of actual events and honing the skills most needed by ordinary people that find themselves in extraordinary circumstances. \nCovered Topics: \n\nDeveloping the defensive mindset and decision-making process\nTactics and techniques to support the Awareness\, Avoidance\, De-Escalation\, Evasion paradigm\nConflict Communications\nPre-Incident criminal behavior\, Managing Unknown Contacts (Credit to Craig Douglas)\nEmploying pepper spray (every student will be supplied with two pepper spray trainers)\nStopping bleeding with pressure dressings and tourniquets\nShooting in 3D: Pistol ballistics and tactical anatomy considerations\nShooting drills and skills derived from incidents involving armed citizens\nDecisive Movement\nMuch more that you won’t learn in other classes!\n\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Guest Instructor John Murphy” tab_id=”john-murphy”][vc_column_text]John Murphy has been instructing civilian concealed carry classes for over fifteen years and has trained under some of the most respected firearms instructors in the country\, incorporating the best and most practical methods and techniques into his courses.

SUMMARY:Image Based Decisional Drills "The Class" (Brian Hill)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]CSA is excited to welcome Brian Hill of the Complete Combatant\, and his ground-breaking Image Based Decisional Drills class where he uses dry fire exercises to help in making lethal versus non-lethal decisions quickly and with good outcomes.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nCourse Description:\nImage Based Decisional Drills “THE CLASS” can be DRY PRACTICE or LIVE FIRE. \nYOUR class is RDY PRACTICE (SIRT) ONLY! \nPeople carry a lot of gear but gear does not solve the problem….YOU do. \nThere are very few dry practice or range exercises for the private citizen that focus on making lethal\, less than lethal and non lethal decisions quickly. Our 4 hour Image Based Decisional Drill CLASSES are intended to fill in the gap in learning how to make decisions using images to provoke a response\, decide which TOOL to use\, and then ACT on that decision. From the time that a bad guy chooses you\, you will have a very limited amount of time to make a decision. THEY choose how and when. Your actions need to be confident\, quick and decisive. \nIn all scenarios the image is happening to YOU\, in front of YOU\, beside YOU or behind YOU. YOU are your first responder and decisions need to be made quickly. Our Image Based Decisional Drill instructors are more like “guides” to help you before\, during but MOSTLY AFTER you have worked through your scenario. \nBENEFITS: \n\nClassroom\, = dry practice\nPressure testing under realistic time constraints with feedback for improvement.\nVisual cueing\nPre-need decision making\nTool cycling\nDistance management\nStrategy changes\n\nAll levels of experience are welcome. The benefits are the same for everybody. The more experience you have\, the more “tools” can be introduced. If you have training in additional areas of self protection like jacks\, saps\, edged weapons\, etc. then add these to your scenario. Also\, your cognitive stacking may be quicker and easier so challenge yourself!​[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Guest Instructor Brian Hill” tab_id=”brian-hill”][vc_column_text] \nBrian Hill is the founder of the Complete Combatant\, which focuses exclusively on training armed citizens to meet the challenges of defending themselves.

SUMMARY:NRA CCW Course
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][/vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][vc_column_text]The goal of the NRA CCW Course is to teach the basic knowledge\, skills\, and attitude necessary to carry a concealed pistol for personal protection. NRA CCW is a newly-developed curriculum that builds on the fundamentals taught in the NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting Course and puts those skills into a defensive context for private citizens who carry concealed handguns. This course is eight hours in length\, with a significant portion of the class spent on the range.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][/vc_tta_accordion][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]Some of the topics in the course include: \n\nReview from NRA Basic Pistol or TN Handgun Carry Permit class\n\ngun safety rules\nproper operation of revolvers and semi-automatic pistols\nFundamentals of marksmanship\nammunition knowledge and selection\n\n\nholster selection\ndifferent carry modes\ndrawing from a holster (open and concealed)\ndefensive mindset\ndefensive accuracy and flash sight picture\nemergency reloading\nmalfunction clearances\none-handed shooting\nshooting from moderate distances (10-15 yards)\nshooting with a timer\nand much more!\n\nSmall classes ensure low student-to-instructor ratios for lots of individualized attention. The course concludes with a written test and a shooting qualification drill. Our patient instructors will be there to assist students every step of the way in a comfortable\, non-intimidating environment.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”equipment”][vc_column_text]Students will need: \n\na quality defensive handgun\na properly-fitted holster and belt\nat least two extra magazines or speed-loaders (and a method of carrying them on your person)\nroughly 150 rounds of ammunition\na cover garment for concealment\nanything you need to keep yourself comfortable in the elements (we’ll spend several hours on an outdoor range)\n\nIf you don’t yet have a handgun or holster\, we can lend you one of ours for this course (however\, if you plan to continue on to the CCW Instructor course\, you should have your own gear). Students may also purchase ammunition from us if necessary. Feel free to contact us for questions about equipment requirements\, and please let us know in advance if you will need to borrow equipment or purchase ammo. \nNote on Ammo:\nWe are mindful of the current ammunition shortage. We will do our very best to be conservative with ammo consumption throughout this course. The round count in the equipment list is a generous estimate\, and we hope to avoid having to use all of it. \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Course Length” tab_id=”course-length”][vc_column_text]The NRA CCW course lasts a full day (roughly eight hours)\, with a significant portion of the class spent on the range for live-fire drills.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Who should take this class?” tab_id=”who-should-take-this-class”][vc_column_text]The NRA CCW course builds upon the skills taught in NRA Basic Pistol. Whereas Basic Pistol focuses on safety and pure marksmanship fundamentals\, the CCW course puts those fundamental skills into a defensive context. This course is ideal for those who intend to carry a concealed handgun on their person\, outside of the home. \nThere will be some review of general marksmanship (sight alignment\, trigger control\, etc.)\, but the primary focus of NRA CCW is defensive mindset and concealed carry techniques (presentation from a holster). There is no prerequisite for this class\, but typically students will have some general familiarity with the five fundamentals of marksmanship. However\, when we have CCW students who are brand new to shooting\, we will adjust the curriculum accordingly.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Can I use this class to get my carry permit?” tab_id=”ccw-class-for-carry-permit”][vc_column_text]Every state has its own rules for handgun carry permit issuance. The NRA CCW class is designed to meet most states’ training requirements\, and many states do accept it\, but please do not make any assumptions. To find out for sure\, contact the proper officials in your state to verify whether the CCW course will satisfy that state’s training requirement. \nTennessee has designed its own training course specifically for Enhanced Handgun Carry Permit applicants\, and this course is currently not accepted as a substitute. However\, Tennessee now has a new permit called the Concealed Handgun Carry permit\, and the NRA CCW class DOES satisfy the training requirement for Tennessee’s Concealed Handgun Carry permit. We’ve assembled a page on our website with more information on the difference between the two permits. \nRegardless of whether this course satisfies your state’s required training for concealed carry\, it is an excellent primer for anyone who plans to go armed in public and wishes to do so safely and responsibly.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][/vc_tta_section][vc_column_text]We look forward to seeing you in class!

No experience is necessary\, but women of all experience levels are welcome. We train teenagers\, great-grandmothers\, and everyone in between. We’ll go over the fundamentals with an emphasis on safety\, and then we’ll relieve a little stress on the range. No judgment\, no pressure\, no egos\, and no politics. We hope you’ll join us for a morning of empowerment as we strive to keep all Women on Target! \nTopics we’ll cover: \n\nSafety\, safety\, safety!\nHandgun parts\, types\, and operation\nThe fundamentals of marksmanship (with live-fire range exercises)\nSafe handgun storage\n\nYou’ll enjoy the relaxed and friendly atmosphere of this class\, whether it’s your first time handling a gun or you’re hoping to dust off existing skills with a little refresher. You’re welcome to bring your own handgun or borrow one of ours. If you need a handgun or ammunition (no holsters involved in this session)\, please contact us in advance to let us know.  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Who Should Come” tab_id=”who-should-come”][vc_column_text]The Women on Target® Instructional Shooting Clinic is a national program designed by the NRA for ladies of all backgrounds who are curious about firearms.

These clinics focus on firearm safety and the fundamentals of marksmanship\, giving you the tools and confidence to discuss\, handle\, or operate a firearm responsibly. \nNo experience is necessary for this class. Ladies under the age of 18 may take the class as long as they will be accompanied by a parent. Typically the youngest age to participate is 12 years old\, but please contact us for details on age restrictions. Generally speaking\, as long as you’re a law-abiding female who is physically and mentally capable of following easy instructions and handling firearms safely\, you are welcome to join us.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What to Bring” tab_id=”what-to-bring”][vc_column_text]For this class\, please bring: \n\nA quality defensive handgun (Not sure what that means?

But please let us know ASAP if that’s what you intend to do.)\nAt least 50 rounds of ammunition\nEye protection and ear protection\nNote-taking materials\nPatience\, positive attitude\, willingness to listen\, open mind\nWater\, snacks\, chair\, or anything else you need to stay comfortable in the elements (we’ll be on an outdoor range)\n\nWe typically fire up to 50 rounds on the range\, but every class is tailored to accommodate the individual participants\, and no two classes are alike. If you need to borrow one of our handguns or purchase ammunition from us\, please contact us in advance.  \nYou will NOT need a holster for this class.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Download the Flyer” tab_id=”flyer”][vc_column_text]Help us spread the word!

Unfortunately\, most state-mandated permit classes do not include much instruction on how to present a handgun from a holster\, let alone any tips from a female perspective. Our Women’s Concealed Carry class helps ladies identify and employ safe\, reliable\, and comfortable handgun carry methods that fit their lifestyles. In the classroom segment\, we’ll explore different concealment options and discuss the practical strengths and weaknesses of each. In the live-fire segment\, we’ll teach women how to present a concealed handgun on demand without sacrificing the marksmanship fundamentals they learned in their handgun carry permit class. \nTopics we’ll cover (time permitting): \n\nSafety\, safety\, safety!\nFundamentals of marksmanship (quick review)\nThe four-count draw (starting with dry work and progressing to live-fire)\nSafe re-holstering\nOpen carry versus concealed carry\nClosed-front and open-front concealment garments\nOn-body carry (hip/appendix/ankle holsters\, belly bands\, compression undergarments\, etc.) versus off-body carry (purses\, briefcases\, etc.)\nHolster selection (common options\, samples\, demos\, and pros/cons of each)\nSimple holster modifications to improve fit\, speed\, comfort\, and security\nCarrying with restrictive or fitted clothing\nSecuring firearms in non-permissive environments\nPractical considerations for ladies who carry\n\nLadies will need to bring their own handgun and holster. If you don’t have one\, please contact us for assistance.

It’s a great curriculum for women who have been exposed to marksmanship fundamentals but have little or no practice with holster work. It’s also great for women who are largely self-taught and want a more formal template for practicing their handgun presentation from concealment. \nRegardless of prior experience\, this is a perfect opportunity for lots of practice repetitions under the watchful eyes of several experienced instructors who can offer useful\, individualized tips for improving your efficiency and consistency when working a holster. We will teach all the same techniques that most competent concealed carriers use\, but with a female lead instructor and special emphasis on factors women tend to prioritize (fellas\, if you’re interested in class involving holster work\, please consider our ATP-2 course).[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What to Bring” tab_id=”1592660060299-a4f06f23-fb9e”][vc_column_text]Students in this class will need: \n\nReliable defensive handgun\nAt least 50 rounds of ammunition (every class is different\, and the amount of shooting we do will depend on the pace of the class)\nSturdy gun belt (a belt designed specifically for supporting a handgun)\nKydex or leather holster that does not collapse when empty and is designed specifically for your make and model handgun (not a one-size-fits-many)\nPreferably at least two magazines (for semi-auto pistols)\nA concealment garment (either open-front or closed-front\, or both if you’d like to try both)\nEye protection and ear protection\nNote-taking materials\nPatience\, positive attitude\, willingness to listen\, open mind\nWater\, snacks\, chair\, or anything else you need to stay comfortable in the elements (we’ll be on an outdoor range)\n\nIf you’re interested in the class but don’t have a holster yet (or if you’d like to use another type of holster that isn’t listed here)\, please contact us to discuss.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][/vc_tta_accordion][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”20px”][vc_media_grid style=”pagination” items_per_page=”6″ element_width=”2″ arrows_design=”vc_arrow-icon-arrow_03_left” arrows_color=”green” paging_color=”mulled_wine” loop=”yes” autoplay=”4″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1597506974844-e0342203-bae0-6″ include=”1926\,1925\,1924\,1923\,1922\,1921\,1920\,1913\,1914\,1915\,1916\,1917\,1918\,1919\,1912\,1911\,1910\,1909\,1908\,1907\,1906\,1905\,1904\,1903\,1902\,1901\,1900\,1899\,1808″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_headings borderclr=”#000000″ title=”Ready to Sign Up?” titlesize=”32″ titleclr=”#000000″][/vc_headings][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]We look forward to seeing you in class!

SUMMARY:TN Armed Guard Certification Course
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Are you interested in becoming an armed security guard? We can help. Private security work in Tennessee is governed by the Private Protective Services Licensing and Regulatory Act (Title 62\, chapter 35 of the Tennessee Code). It’s regulated by the Department of Commerce and Insurance\, which administers the application process. One requirement for new applicants is 16 hours of specialized training. If that’s the training you’re looking for\, you’re in the right place![/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Info” tab_id=”course-info”][vc_column_text]\nIn Tennessee\, all armed security guards must meet the armed guard registration requirements to be authorized to carry a firearm on the job. This course satisfies the training requirement imposed by Tenn. Code Ann. § 62-35-118 (b) for applicants seeking to earn an armed security registration card.  \nAs required by law\, this is a 16-hour course that includes 4 hours of unarmed guard training and 8 hours of classroom instruction with a focus on authority\, duties and legal responsibilities of security guards/officers\, use of force laws in Tennessee\, gun safety\, and proper selection of weapons and gear. The final 4 hours are spent in live fire training on the range. \nRange training includes hands-on time with weapons to improve mindset\, marksmanship\, and manipulation skills\, as well as defensive shooting tactics\, techniques\, and procedures.  \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Eligibility” tab_id=”eligibility”][vc_column_text]\nBelow are the eligibility requirements for an armed guard license (see Tenn. Code Ann § 62-35-117). Note that a security guard who holds an armed guard license may work either an armed post or an unarmed post (no need to separately obtain an unarmed guard license). \n\nMust be at least 21 years of age\nMust be a U.S. citizen or a resident alien (green card holder)\nMust have never been declared by any court to be incompetent by reason of mental defect or disease (unless you’ve since been declared competent)\nIf previously convicted of any felony or serious misdemeanor (involving violence\, firearms\, or theft)\, the applicant must have completed serving any sentence or probation at least five years prior to applying for the security guard license \nMust not be addicted to drugs or alcohol;\nMust not have any disability that prevents you for safely performing security duties; and\nMust be of good moral character.\n\nSuccessful applicants must meet the training requirements and submit electronic fingerprints for processing TBI and or FBI criminal history check. This course satisfies the training requirement (see Tenn. Code Ann. § 62-35-118 (b). \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Renewals and Unarmed Security” tab_id=”renewals-and-unarmed-security”][vc_column_text]Are you interested in becoming an unarmed guard instead of an armed guard? We offer training for that too. We also offer license renewal training for security professionals (required by law every two years to keep license current). If you’d like to inquire about renewals or unarmed security\, please contact us.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”equipment-list”][vc_column_text]This class offers a total of 16 hours of instruction\, including several hours of dry fire and live fire training on the range (range work is done at the OK Corral Shooting Range in Woodbury\, TN). You’ll need: \n\nApproximately 200 rounds of ammunition (you can purchase that from us if necessary)\nA reliable defensive handgun (contact us if you have questions about what handguns are appropriate)\nA quality belt-worn defensive holster that does not collapse when the gun is drawn\nAt least one belt-worn magazine pouch (or speed-loader pouch)\nAt least one spare magazine or speed-loader\nAttire\, outerwear\, and shoes appropriate for outdoor shooting\nA positive attitude\nAn open mind\nNote-taking materials\n\nIf you need to purchase ammo from us or use one of our handguns\, please contact us in advance to let us know so we can make sure we’re sufficiently stocked.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]We look forward to seeing you in class!
